Their slogan states, 'Look good, eat good,' and we couldn't agree more. The fun restaurant located in Memphis takes its cues from 1950s beauty shop culture and offers a solid brunch, lunch, and dinner - plus cocktails, of course.
Memphis gives everyone a run for their money with the culinary twisting and turning that is Hog & Hominy - the rustic restaurant focuses on Italian homecooked meals and gives them a quirky southern twist. Sounds like a plan to us.

The exposed brick at Public House is nothing short of gorgeous, while the fine dining options and up to date southern comfort food will have you wining and dining all the way through the night.
Hey there, big spender. If you're a foodie with a taste for foie gras, then you can't leave Chattanooga without a try. They have a more casual front, Meeting Place, but St. Johns has given Chattanooga a high minded restaurant to call their own.
Known for the one of the best burgers in the state of Tennessee, S&B is a favorite amongst all ages in the Knoxville area. The neat lighting and wooden floors set the stage, while the burgers finish us out.
This farm-to-table gem has a garden on the property and sits high atop downtown Nashville, offering pretty views from your old school oasis. Southern comfort food with a twist is the name of the game, and they nail it head on every time.
The neat thing about The Tomato Head? You AND your vegetarian friends can come. Their menu has a large range, spanning salads and burritos to their finger lickin' pizza.

This quirky spot has all day breakfast AND serves beer and espresso. Open seven am to midnight every day, you can order a plate of shrimp and grits or try the The Waffle of Insane Greatness. It's a strange spot, but you'll remember it forever.
Listed as the best brunch in Nashville during the year 2015, we now TOTALLY get why a line snakes around the building before the hot spot even opens. Offering sweet French dining and a light, airy atmosphere, this is a date spot that will give your love extra points.
Exquisite offerings and farm to table menu items will leave you unable to move after a visit to The Barn. Crazy delicious? Yes. Worth the amount of your mortgage? Debatable. But c'mon now - you just can't beat that ambience.
This cool, streamlined eatery melds cool hipster Nashville vibes with a hefty meat based menu and an interior design that will leave your jaw on the floor. Be prepared for a wait - this place is hoppin' - but the brunch options are fantastic, as is the chorizo macaroni and cheese. YUM.
