Bourbon Steak on the 34th floor of the JW Marriott Hotel makes the best date night ever. Sweeping views of the city, delectable food, and hand-crafted cocktails.

Located in the historic Printer’s Alley downtown, Black Rabbit has a cozy yet spacious speakeasy atmosphere.

Merchants (First Floor Bistro) in downtown Nashville is right on the Honky Tonk Strip on Broadway. I like this place because while the honky tonks are fun and all, sometimes I need a break for some quality food and a nice cocktail.

If you want some good food, need some air conditioning, want one of the best rooftop view of downtown, while still having that “Honky Tonk” feel, head to Acme at the end of the strip.
