Rank 1. Xiao Bao
Chinese Noodle Shop
A diner-style Asian restaurant where a giant strawberry guards the door sets the tone for everything inside: Formica tabletops, red velvet couches, and a menu that bounces between hand-pulled noodles topped with brisket and a la zi spiced smash burger on a bao bun with beef fat fries. The retro fever-dream aesthetic is very much the point. The New York Times named it among Nashville's 25 best restaurants.

Rank 2. Uzbegim
Noodle Shop
Hand-cut Uyghur-style noodles stir-fried with beef, egg, and vegetables are the reason most people end up here, though the flaky tandir samosa with spicy red sauce makes a strong opening argument. Uzbegim is a casual Uzbek spot in Nashville with a patio worth seeking out, earning a Michelin Bib Gourmand for cooking that travels well outside its usual geography. The lamb kebab is charred and tender, and the house-made cherry juice is not an afterthought.
