8TH AVENUE SOUTH. On the red walls of this meat 'n three are signed portraits of famous Nashvillians who frequent the place, including the Dixie Chicks and local sports columnist Joe Biddle. Meats include fried chicken, pork chops, fish, and beef; sides include macaroni and cheese, fried okra, and turnip greens. Make friends with your fellow diners, because you'll be sitting with them family-style.

ELLISTON PLACE. Originally a soda shop, this Elliston Place mainstay is a throwback to the 50s with its fountain service and old school counter seating. The restaurant, while still serving soda-shop fare like club sandwiches and cheeseburgers, is mainly a meat-and-three. Don't forget to try one of their famous milkshakes!

DOWNTOWN. When the bars close, the downtown crowd heads to the Hermitage Cafe. This all-night establishment serves diner food all night, including the popular steak-and-eggs and country-fried-steak. Pictures of local country stars adorn the cinder-block walls, and the jukebox plays favorites all night. This is the real thing: quick and friendly service, homey decor, and maybe a country star or two.

Located just off the Natchez Trace Parkway, Loveless Cafe has been a local and tourist favorite for over 50 years. Be on alert when you stop in, because the restaurant attracts more than its fair share of celebrities. The homey decor may leave something to be desired, but the great Southern cooking is not lacking. Country ham, sausage gravy, fried chicken, and grits – all of the stuff doctors tell you to avoid! Make sure you sample their biscuits.

DOWNTOWN. Monell's occupies an historic Victorian house in Germantown. Dining is communal, and long wooden tables and an all-you-eat menu (choices of entree, vegetables, breads, and desserts) set the scene. Simply ask fellow diners to pass around the family-style dishes and you'll have all you'll need – the attentive staff refills dishes constantly.

ELLISTON PLACE. This popular family-style restaurant offers one of the best meals for the money in Nashville. Close to the Vanderbilt campus, Rotier's menu is distinctly Southern, including an awesome meat and three lunch special. For those looking for greasy spoon fare, the mouth-watering cheeseburger plate with onion rings is a must and, of course, begs to be chased with a shake.

Swett's began as a tavern in 1920, but turned to the meat-and-three scene in 1954. The family-owned business is proud of the diversity of its clientele. Recipes at Swetts are never written down, ensuring a different experience every time you visit. The cooks put their heart and soul into this food, and the popularity of their dishes attest to the care and attention paid to the items.

SYLVAN PARK. A popular lunch destination, Sylvan Park Restaurant features good-ole home-cookin' the way it's meant to be. The restaurant serves dishes like fried chicken, ham, and vegetables that are as good as anybody's, but their pies and chocolate creations set Sylvan Park apart from the other meat 'n threes around town.

At this colorful meat-and-three, the country food suits the decor. Serving breakfast and lunch, the White Trash Cafe is a favorite among locals. Lunch favorites include BBQ pork, meat loaf and salmon croquettes served with sides like mac and cheese, corn and mixed beans. If you are in a hurry, call ahead for a take out order or get a boxed breakfast in the morning.
