Food Scene

Don Juan is the best (and cheapest) Mexican place in town. Super fresh ingredients and friendly people. They have a small dine-in building to the side, or you can use their drive-thru. I recommend their torta sandwich.

If you're going to try hot chicken while in Nashville, definitely check out Pepperfire Hot Chicken. This is my favorite hot chicken spot, and be careful when selecting your spice level.
