The Nashville Food take

Why it earns a place in the directory

This is Nashville dining as theater, but the best seats are aimed at the cooks rather than a stage. The new fifth-floor room keeps the open-kitchen intimacy that made Catbird distinctive while turning the reservation into a full evening out.
