Husk

The 14 Best Restaurants In Downtown Nashville 2024

"Husk has been holding it down in Rutledge Hill for over a decade. It’s situated in a historic Victorian mansion that still feels authentically creaky and old in a really cool way. They changed chefs a few years ago, and while it took some time for the new crew to find its footing, they’re hitting their stride with new riffs on Southern dishes and old favorites like glazed pig ears and Benton’s country ham with soft rolls. Take your out-of-towners here—it checks off the “trying Southern food” box in an elevated, special way. If the weather’s nice, grab a table on the patio near the vegetable and herb garden and order a round of whiskey cocktails. " - jackie gutierrez jones 2, ann walczak
