Located in the back of a liquor store, this meat and three features breakfast all day, homemade desserts like strawberry shortcake and blackberry cobbler, and true Southern decor. Fresh turnip greens, excellent sandwiches, and an array of traditional veggies keep locals coming back for more. The menu rotates daily of course, and without Sylvan Park serving similar fare down the street, it is a true Nashville institution with staying power. Perhaps the macaroni and cheese has something to do with it. For fast, friendly service with a side of hush puppies, Wendell Smith's more than delivers.

Nashville Local Expert
- Homestyle, Meat and Three: "Don't let it's location tucked behind a liquor store scare you off. This is the real deal."
- Best for Homestyle Because: Wednesday and Saturday are the days to go for their famous crispy fried chicken.
- Best for Meat and Three Because: Servers are familiar, friendly, and determined to get you back to work in time.
