About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Charming
Good for special occasions

At City House in Nashville, TN, James Beard Award winning Chef Tandy Wilson makes an amazing array of dishes to pair up with the enormous array of artisan cocktails, wine and bourbon or whiskey choices available. A popular Sunday Supper gives a unique dining experience, but many come for the regular dinner menu.

The dinner choices at City House include starters like frico, pork snacks, and seasonal salads. There are handmade pizzas with traditional toppings and more Southern inspired choices like belly ham or kale. The entrees are just as seasonal and include dishes like the local trout, hand made pastas, and wood oven roasted meats. A visit to City House allows you to enjoy a wonderful experience in a historic setting.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Tandy Wilson

From the OpenTable editors: Chef Tandy Wilson has eight James Beard Award nominations and one win under his belt for the innovative pizza and Italian fare he slings at City House. Wilson tops blistered pie crusts coming out of the woodfired oven with the likes of house pork belly ham or local and seasonal veggies, plus ensures there's very little food waste in dishes such as bread gnocchi with cauliflower ragu that uses up leftover pizza crust. Don't miss the fun bartender guest stars who ensure plenty of good bourbon flows through the wide open kitchen and dining room.

City House is a "not miss" stop in Nashville. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and on point. While they're known for their pizza, the pastas are incredible. I had the gnocchi, which were so tender and homy, reminiscent of childhood at grandmas. Save room for dessert!

Loved everything except the lighting - harsh unflattering track lighting from above made for an odd look.

Funky little restaurant in Germantown part of Nashville. Limited menu - take a look before you go to make sure they have something you'll want (no changes allowed.) Pepperoni pizza was exactly as you'd expect. Chicken dish a little salty. "Soup" was very tasty, a little salty, and not really any broth. Overall, it was a good meal albeit not the best ever.

Celebrated our one year wedding anniversary at City House. The overall vibe of the restaurant is so comfortable/cozy which made it a great spot to split some delicious food and a bottle of wine. The catfish was a surprising hit and the Tennessee waltz cake is a must order!
