Locust and The Catbird Seat lead, both Michelin One Stars, with Bastion right behind them for a trio of starred kitchens. Peninsula rounds out the top with a James Beard Winner and a Bib Gourmand on one plate. The Delicious tier runs deep with Michelin Selected spots in Germantown and East Nashville, and eight more Damn Good options cover everything from Sylvan Park to Downtown. This is a cuisine with real range, not just a headline or two.
