2 Best Restaurants in Nashville, Tennessee

This colorful neighborhood staple is a locally owned Baja Californian--style Mexican food restaurant, with build-your-own counter service featuring local meats, handmade salsas, and delicious fruit teas. In addition to their namesake burritos, they offer plentiful taco and salad options, all in generous portions, making this funky and fun spot a local favorite.

For those who are serious about tequila and mezcal, head to this modern Mexican cantina with à la carte taco options like Korean barbacoa, hot chicken, and jerk shrimp. Sugar skulls adorn most surfaces, and the giant mural in the main dining room is just begging for a photo op; if the wait seems too long downstairs, head to the lounge upstairs known as the Tequila Library for quick service, strong drinks, and a quieter atmosphere.
