Nashville

July 15, 2026

Three One Stars, seven Bib Gourmands, and eleven Selected round out the 21 that carry a Michelin badge. Bastion, Locust, and The Catbird Seat sit at the top, each stacking a James Beard nod alongside the star. The Selected list is doing quiet work underneath — half the guide, none of the fanfare. We still rate every one on our own scale, stars or not.
