Featuring an array of global flavors and decadent desserts by Chef Deb Paquette and Pastry Chef Megan Williams, Etch is located in the ground floor of the Encore tower in Nashville's SoBro district. The restaurant is equipped with two private dining rooms, a full bar and an open kitchen with bar-style seating, allowing guests to interact with the culinary team. Lunch and dinner are available Monday-Friday, as well as dinner on Saturday.

In her 13 years as Chef/Owner of Zola, Deb received accolades for Nashville's best chef and Nashville's best restaurant multiple times. Nashville restaurants are many, but Etch sets itself apart with bold flavors and colorful presentations.

The cuisine at Etch is complemented by our comprehensive wine list, featuring an extensive collection of wines from around the world. Guests can also enjoy our modern take on classic cocktails, along with a variety of eclectic beers and regional drafts.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Deb Paquette

From the OpenTable editors: Pioneering chef Deb Paquette is Tennessee’s first woman to qualify as a certified executive chef and her bold, globally inspired menu takes center stage at this critical darling in downtown Nashville. Grab a spot at the lively chef’s counter for a front-row seat to the open kitchen, where Paquette turns out artfully plated dishes like pan-seared scallops with Thai lemongrass curry paired with stellar, Wine Spectator-awarded wines. No meal here is complete without one of pastry chef Megan Williams’s knockout desserts.

    My boyfriend and I went here for our 2 year anniversary. We got there a little early, but we were able to sit at the bar. Nick greeted us and served us some yummy drinks! The host Rudy was very kind and friendly. Our server, Kevin, was informative and helpful. We were greeted with a champagne toast for our anniversary! It was a fun atmosphere. I ordered the chef’s creation, but I did not care for it. They were so nice to comp it from our check. My boyfriend ordered the scallops and they were amazing! Overall great service and good food.

    The food was overpriced and not very good. The waitress rushed us and was very inattentive.

    From the moment we arrived, warm welcomes from the host/hostess and our experience continued to get better! The wait staff took great care of my gluten issue, recommending a delicious gf bread option to start. Cauliflower app is a must! We highly recommend sitting at the counter to watch the magic happen. Great from start to finish.

    Etch is a hidden gem in Nashville. We were greeted by Rudy, who was funny and friendly. He made us feel welcomed and appreciated. Our waiter, Joseph, was friendly and engaging. Rudy and Joseph made wonderful food recommendations. Every bite of our meal was spectacular! I strongly recommend this restaurant.
