Bailey and Cato Family Restaurant
Don’t let the quiet exterior fool you. Inside the faded-salmon house—kitty-corner from the foodie strip of Riverside Village—the Bailey family is hard at work, smoking ribs, cleaning greens and stewing yams for a rotating menu of Southern and soul classics. If you can't commit to memory the weekly schedule, you can always rely on barbecue ribs and some of the best fried chicken in town, which are available daily.
Local pizza restaurant and deli serving specialty pies, strombolis, wings and subs.
Eastside Fish
Eastside boasts the Crunkest Fish in Town, and Donald Boatright's got a good argument, particularly when it comes to the Giant King, nearly two pounds of beautifully fried fish filet bulging out of two slices of white bread; for less than $7, it can easily feed a couple of commoners.
A cheap and cheerful chain, this locally owned family of Mexican restaurants offers standard-issue South-of-the-border fare, including the requisite chips and salsa and margaritas. Fajitas are generous, service is friendly and good with kids.
Mas Tacos
After years of cruising around town in a nomadic taco dispensary, Teresa Mason finally parked her cheery enterprise at a brick-and-mortar shop in East Nashville. With a laser-like focus on a tight repertoire of tacos, grilled corn, soups and fruit drinks, Mas Tacos Por Favor has as close to a 100-percent success rate as you’re likely to find. For our money, the fried avocado taco stands above all others, with a decadent buttery-and-crisp sensation wrapped in a toothsome tortilla drizzled with citrus and crema. Mas Tacos’ version of elotes, grilled corn on the cob topped with crumbly cotija cheese and tangy lime juice, could slap French fries off their pedestal as most-beloved side item in a head-to-head competition. Meanwhile, Mas Tacos’ chicken soup — laced with lime, chili and cilantro and bobbing with white meat, grape tomatoes, grilled corn, peppers, avocado slices and puffy strips of deep fried tortilla — deserves a place in the pantheon of most-powerful non-prescription cold-remedies.
Mitchell Delicatessen
Chef-owner David Mitchell and chef Julia Helton are the toast of the crossroads, where they have opened up a long-awaited deli in Riverside Village. Meats and cheeses are available by the pound or in an array of sandwiches that includes lamb with mint raita, muffuletta and ham & brie.
Pied Piper Eatery
Andy and Becky Piper, siblings of Jenny Piper of Pied Piper Creamery fame, were the heroes of the Riverside-and-Porter crossroads when they introduced their seven-day-a-week family-friendly eatery. The playful, music-themed menu--dotted with items such as David Cassidy chicken fingers the Hannah Montana hot ham and cheese sandwich and the Clay Aiken (nothing but cheese)--has plenty of crossover appeal for a multi-generational crowd. Don't miss the giant Monte Cristo, which looks like a ham sandwich that had a run-in with a funnel cake. Pied Piper's moist and flavorful veggie burger masks its vegetarianism better than most. — Carrington Fox
Located in the emerging Riverside Village in East Nashville, Sip serves Drew's Brews coffee and Mike's homemade ice cream, which is churned downstairs, in a soothing little spot decked in cool blue, with rustic classroom chairs and framed maps on the walls. Sip opens onto a communal courtyard with umbrella tables and a doggie water fountain.
Named for departed founding chef Hide Watanabe, the restaurant is the third in Matt Charette's burgeoning East Nashville dining empire, which includes Batter'd & Fried and Beyond the Edge. Located in the corner unit of Riverside Village, Watanabe serves a roster of sushi and Korean and Thai dishes. The sleek 45-foot bar of stained concrete doubles as a watering hole and a sushi counter.
