Discover a chic East Nashville haven for inventive Japanese small plates, mouthwatering ramen, and craft cocktails, perfect for cozy gatherings or lively nights out.
"Inspired by Japanese ramen houses and casual izakayas, this hip East Nashville pub with a charming patio focuses on hot snacks and noodle bowls plus a deep selection of cocktails, sake, shochu, and Japanese whiskeys, alongside tea and mocktails. But Two Ten Jack also serves some of the city’s best sushi, from pristine scallop sashimi and Hawaiian butterfish nigiri to the playful handroll bowls that put you in charge of building your own rolls using various sashimi, rice, and nori." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones, Delia Jo Ramsey, Eater Staff
"As Nashville's first izakaya restaurant, Two Ten Jack (it's named after a Japanese card game) kind of blew everybody's minds when it first opened. The East Nashville spot was opened by Patrick Burke, a restaurant owner who has some experience in this space, as he's also behind The Green Pheasant, which opened in November. The thing to order is definitely chef Jessica Benefield’s homemade ramen, which is so fresh and delicious that they actually won't let you take it home as leftovers. "
"Izakaya and ramen house Two Ten Jack offers a few different ramen variations with a number of add-ons for customization. Pork broth-based tonkotsu ramen is the most popular, with stewed pork (chashu), bamboo shoots, mushrooms, garlic, and a soft egg." - Delia Jo Ramsey, Kristy Lucero
"Nashville’s firstborn izakaya is open for takeout from 4 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Order online crowd-favorite garlic noodles, gyoza, cocktails, and even ramen (something they’ve never served to-go before)." - Delia Jo Ramsey
"Popping up a few days a week with limited takeout-friendly items, including the never-before traveling ramen." - Delia Jo Ramsey
