Henrietta Red is Julia Sullivan's oyster bar and seasonal restaurant in Germantown — one of Nashville's most important chefs running a vegetable-forward kitchen alongside one of the city's best raw bars.

Rolf and Daughters is Philip Krajeck's Michelin Recommended Germantown pasta and small plates restaurant — handmade pasta with serious texture, wood-fired dishes, one of Nashville's best wine lists, and a restaurant that has been shaping the city's serious dining identity for over a decade.

The Patterson House is Nashville's original serious cocktail bar — now in a new location in The Gulch, with seasonal menus, hand-cut ice, no standing policy, and the bartenders who changed what Nashville thought a cocktail bar could be.
