Best Contemporary European Restaurants in Southeast Nashville

Simply exceptional. The entire team was a delight to interact with; they went above and beyond in ensuring we had a wonderful dining experience. The courses were so thoughtfully prepared, offered unexpected surprises to the palate, and yet very approachable. You could tell the chefs honor the science and joy of their craft. We surprised ourselves in choosing the non-alcoholic drink pairings; they were just as intricate and delightful as the meal. Worth every bit of the price. If you don’t have an adventurous +1, don’t wait—go alone.

We were very impressed with Etch - they made it an extra special meal for our anniversary with thoughtful details including a card, champagne toast and anniversary chocolates on top of our desserts. The cauliflower starter was good, but the duck tart was even better. For mains we tried the venison which was delicious and perfectly cooked, and the fish special which was a beautiful mahi. Desserts were an apple tart (our favorite) and eggnog ice cream sundae. Will definitely be back when we return to Nashville again!

We chose Gannon’s due to its proximity to Printer’s Alley. (Right next door). Both the food and service were outstanding. My wife had swordfish with romesco sauce, and I had a 8oz filet mignon. Both were amazing! A classy but casual space. Highly recommend!
