nada in Downtown Nashville was such a wonderful experience it needs it’s own highlight feature! The ambiance, the food, the service - absolutely the best.
nada is the brilliant creation of Chef David Falk's Boca Restaurant Group and is described perfectly as an experience of soulful Latin-inspired small plates. It has been in trendy and popular Downtown Nashville for nearly two years. When you arrive you are greeted by the warm string lights outside over a quaint patio before entering a beautiful restaurant with a perfect ambiance of laidback, upscale, and inviting. A colorful bar with a floor to ceiling tequila display reminds you that you're in need of a cocktail - my favorite, the Chile-Mango Margarita. The bartender, Henry, is a gem and makes a fantastic drink!
In addition to a simply well-done drink menu full of margaritas, cerveza, and vino, local Chef Jonathan Rohland presents an inspired menu that as they say 'escapes the ordinary'.
