This is a fun place to eat breakfast or lunch. Portraits of great artists like Van Gough and rock musician Jerry Garcia hang on the walls.

The most popular offering is the spinach Parmesan bagel with artichoke-parmesan cream cheese. The "Pedro Gonzales," with turkey, green chilies and jalapeno spread, makes a real impression on the taste buds. Review © 2007, Wcities |

1920 West End Avenue (at 20th Avenue North) Nashville, TN 37203 United States +1 615 320 1740 http://www.amerigo.net/ |
It's rare that an Italian restaurant is not romantic. Yet this one breaks the rules and caters to families rather than young lovers. Plentiful portions of pasta—Angel Hair, Fettuccine, Penne, Linguini—are served with creamy Alfredo, Pesto or hearty Marinara Sauces. Thin crust pizzas are topped with creative selections like Gouda cheese, spinach and smoked chicken. The veal is delicious and all entrees are served with fresh baked bread and Caesar Salad.

After the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina, Chappy's Seafood Restaurant relocated to downtown Nashville and reopened as Chappy's on Church. This authentic New Orleans restaurant features live jazz music, an outstanding menu of Cajun and Creole delights and an atmosphere of beautiful stained glass and fine art. Rather than side booths, Chappy's includes a number of individual enclaves for private seating, which enable guests to hear the music and also enjoy dinner-table conversation. The food and service are both fabulous and the desserts are decadent-mile-high and delicious-especially the C'est Magnifique coconut cake. You might need a take-home tray just for the dessert. -Lynn-nore Chittom Review © 2007, Wcities |

Cheeseburgers seem like pretty simple fare, but this lively diner offers an interesting twist on the American classic. How about an all-beef patty grilled with mixed vegetables, or a black bean burger? What about a beefalo burger or a nice turkey burger? These are healthy alternatives, containing less than seven grams of fat per serving. Burger purists can still opt for the greasier variety of burger, and no one should pass up the fries. You can't be healthy all the time, can you? Review © 2007, Wcities |

Pizza can be a work of art, especially when you have the right brush with which to paint. How about 30 different toppings to decorate the canvas? Pepperoni, oysters, basil, pesto, roasted chicken and artichoke hearts are all on your pallet. Want cheese on your pie? How about feta, Gouda, Swiss or cheddar? You'll need a canvas to paint on, and your masterpiece can be served on thick or thin crust, with pesto or tomato sauce. If you aren't in the mood to be creative, let the experts serve up one of their own creations. Non-dairy soy cheddar and mozzarella pizzas delight the health conscious, and the bleu cheese and spinach pizza is ideal for the adventurous pizza eater. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Old fashioned soda shop |
2111 Elliston Place Nashville, TN 37203-5203 United States +1 615 327 1090 |
Don't let the 'retro' décor at this diner fool you. The owner didn't redecorate to fit the current trend; he hasn't changed a thing since the shop opened in the 1950s. The great food and service that made this famous also remain the same. Burgers and shakes are the standard here, but you can also get a good 'meat-and-three' meal as well. While this Nashville landmark was made famous by the movie, "Sweet Dreams: The Patsy Cline Story" starring Jessica Lange, its popularity with downtown workers and Vanderbilt University students is attributed mainly to its casual atmosphere and delicious food.

Don't expect a seat at the sushi bar here because there is no sushi bar! However, the sushi tastes just as good served at your table. This simple eatery has been serving Nashville's fastest Japanese food for years, and with the addition of sushi to the menu, new patrons are discovering the place every day. Choose from simple teriyaki dishes or opt for the udon or noodle dinners. Sushi comes in a variety of combination platters featuring delicious rolls and a side dish. A typical meal will cost $5-$6, and that includes a beverage. The restaurant serves no alcohol, not even hot sake. Review © 2007, Wcities |

An Intimate American Bistro |
3201 West End Ave Nashville, TN 37212 United States +1 615 298 3444 |
Couples love getting cozy in this charming bistro-style neighborhood restaurant. Exposed brick walls bedecked with contemporary art give the place an urban feel that local trendsetters appreciate. Health nuts dig the place for the healthy fare and focus on innovative veggie cuisine, although you will find your share of meateater classics like steak and pork chops on the menu. A favorite is "Tortilla Cats," a catfish fillet lightly fried in a tortilla crust with black beans, rice and salsa. Happy hour is M-F 4p-6:30p. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Elegant Italian eatery |
2000 Belcourt Avenue Nashville, TN 37212 United States +1 615 385 2200 http://www.tracerestaurant.com/ |
The tall windows along the front of the restaurant offer a striking view of the Nashville skyline, and the elegant decor makes this the perfect setting for a business dinner or a romantic evening with your spouse. Crisp, starched white tablecloths on candlelit tables set the mood for the delicious Italian dishes served by chef Frederick Brooker. Menu favorites include Fettucine Alfredo, Shrimp Scampi and a sinfully rich Manicotti. The Caesar Salad is almost a meal in itself and the Lamb Chops are the signature special of the house. Have a drink at the bar while you wait for your table, or sit on the patio and enjoy the company of friends while you linger over a glass of chardonnay. Review © 2007, Wcities |
