No matter how many new bars or restaurants Nashville rolls out on an annual basis, we want to try every single one of them. Every time. We’re in love with our ever-changing southern cuisine, and even more happy to watch bars pop up that aren’t filled to the bring with twangy music and neon. Don’t get us wrong – we love our honkytonks! Still, every once in a while it’s nice to indulge in a soothing evening out, and this downtown restaurant has a secret bar that’s sure to fit the bill.
