Don't miss the fried green tomatoes, mashed potatoes or pecan pie.
Gayot "Before old-school Southern was cool, Arnold's had old-school Southern fare well in hand." Full review
Rough Guide Star
"Classic canteen, south of downtown, where locals wait in line for tasty meat-and-threes (meat, three veggies and buttery cornbread)."
Travel + Leisure "There's no better place to sample a wide array of Southern fried goodness (think collard greens, fried chicken, biscuits and gravy, fried okra, pecan pie." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "One choice of meat (fried chicken is the runaway favorite, although liver and onions has a loyal following) and three sides—mac and cheese, turnip greens, and fried apples are all solid options." Full review
Fodor's "With more seating room, this old-school cafeteria-style meat and three is the perfect pick for anyone who's serious about some Southern food that will stick to your ribs. " Full review

The meat and vegetable options vary by day, so check their website to make sure you're not missing your protein of choice, but it's hard to go wrong.
New York Times "Similarly, the much-applauded Arnold’s Country Kitchen on 8th Avenue South now has a night and weekend schedule to accommodate the usual crush of meat-and-three fans"
In Nashville, Boisterous Fun and Decadent Eating
April 21, 2022
Independent "The ultimate purveyor of the Southern “meat-and-three” approach to dining – that is, one “hero” meat accompanied by three vegetable sides – Arnold’s Country Kitchen is a hugely welcoming family concern run by the garrulous Khalil Arnold and his mother, Rose"

Zagat ""stupendous”, regionally sourced Southern fare that’s “bursting with flavor” thanks to the “masterful touch” of chef Sean Brock and his “farm-to-fork” ethos." Full review
Gayot15.0
"While Brock nods to Nashville food culture with such dishes as his meticulously crafted fried chicken...he also pays homage to the restaurant's low country flagship in Charleston with shrimp and grit." Full review
Afar Magazine "Book a customized dining experience at the Stables at Husk, a private dining space located in a historic carriage house." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "Husk is the restaurant that pushed Nashville cuisine onto the national stage." Full review
On the Grid "An off-shoot of the Charleston, South Carolina original Husk, this Nashville incarnation is housed in a historic mansion and has a stellar vibe." Full review
The Infatuation "Husk is the one Nashville restaurant you should make a reservation at before you even finish reading this, both because it’s great and because it books up way in advance." Full review
Frommer's "Husk zeroes in on regional ingredients cooked over an ember-fired grill...Southern with low-country influences, Husk has a heritage that focuses on heirloom ingredients, in-house pickling." Full review
Fodor's "Southern charm abounds in both decor and flavors at Husk, located in a converted historic home" Full review
