Sonobana has been running on White Bridge Road since 1987, making it Nashville's original Japanese restaurant. The menu covers sushi and sashimi, lunch and dinner sets, bento boxes, soups and noodles, sides and appetizers, and desserts and drinks.
Next door, Sonobana operates its own Japanese grocery, stocking fresh seafood, Japanese vegetables, rice, miso paste, low-sodium and wheat-free soy sauce, sake, teacups, rice bowls, and chopsticks — a pantry tied directly to what comes out of the kitchen.
Regulars describe it as a hidden gem in West Nashville, built on consistent sushi, good value, and a loyal following that keeps coming back.
