Best Neighbourhood Gem Restaurants in Madison

With all of the new restaurants opening in Nashville, we hadn't been to Henrietta Red in a couple of years. I was reminded last night on what delicious and uniquely inventive dishes they offer. The beet salad had layered flavors, as did the amazing chicken liver pate, served with wood-fired bread. The gem salad was fresh, crisp and had a thick, flavorful caesar dressing with crunchy bits of toast--amazing. The fried eggplant had a nice light and spicy crust, and the juicy eggplant interior burst in your mouth on the first bite--a sensation worth trying. The spaghetti with grilled veggies and ancho-chili oil--how brilliant and tasty. We plan to go back more often--still one of the top restaurants in Nashville!! Easy to park too! Friendly and courteous staff.

Puckett's is always great. We had sweet tea, dry rubbed wings, the The Whole Farm, followed by today's cobbler Service was excellent as always, ambience is terrific, the food delicious

Our first visit to this place was incredible! Taylor, our server, was an absolute lifesaver. He gave us some fantastic recommendations and made sure we had the best time. The food was absolutely delicious! The pork chops were huge and bursting with flavor, and my wife’s fillet was perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. The mac and cheese was to die for - it was so creamy and indulgent. We’ll definitely be back because there are so many dishes we still need to try.

We enjoyed an outstanding dining experience at The Mockingbird. Our server provided much helpful information about the establishment and menu. The menu was eclectic and interesting. The shortribs with fried rice and brussel sprouts were delicious. My companions enjoyed the schnitzel and flank steak entrees. An exceptional dining experience!

Awesome food, cool atmosphere, and great service. One of the best meals we have had in a long time. Highly recommend. Oh, and the variations on Old Fashions were top notch!!!
