Welcome to Folk! We are a casual neighborhood restaurant nestled in the heart of East Nashville. Guided by acclaimed chef and Rolf & Daughters' visionary Philip Krajeck, our menu is seasonal with an emphasis on produce from our farmer friends and local purveyors. You'll find vegetable-forward dishes, large format selections, and our naturally leavened pizzas. Our bar program aims to provide food-friendly beverages with an ever-evolving natural wine list, craft beer, and specialty cocktails. We're honored to be recognized as a semifinalist for the prestigious James Beard Best New Restaurant award as well as being named one of Bon Appétit's 50 Best New Restaurants.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Philip Krajeck

From the OpenTable editors: Chef Philip Krajeck mastered pasta at his acclaimed restaurant, Rolf and Daughters. At Folk, Krajeck spins sourdough pies topped with seasonal vegetables and heritage proteins. Add in a charming, brick-lined space lined with trailing plants and paper lanterns plus a top-notch natural wine list, and it’s easy to see why Folk earned a Best New Restaurant nod from the James Beard Foundation.

    The food did not exceed my expectations, but the service was excellent and the vibe of the restaurant was impeccable. The Mulligan cocktail was tasty along with the mushroom pizza. The price of the dinner was extremely respectable! 7/10

    We had a reservation for 7:15 and waited 30 minutes for our table. They didn’t make us pay for our glass of wine which was nice. The food and service was great.
