Midori Japanese Korean Restaurant

Since 2001, this unassuming eatery has been one of Nashville’s favorite Asian restaurants. It is a family-run restaurant of Korean heritage known for its sushi offerings just as much as authentic Korean barbeque. Utilizing charcoal grills inlaid into the dining table, try the bulgogi (also known as “fire meat”), thin cuts of marinated beef. Pair that with a traditional banchan, Korean side dishes like fish cake or spicy cucumber salad. Or, stick to the Japanese side of the menu and order your favorite sushi or sashimi.

The Smiling Elephant

Always busy, The Smiling Elephant is known for serving authentic Thai cuisine with bargain-priced promotions. They feature a daily curry schedule with fan favorites like Karee Curry Tuesday and Red Curry Friday. If in the mood for something other than curry, try their signature Pad Thai, which is prefaced on the menu as “not being an Americanized version but prepared traditionally with tamarind sauce and palm sugar.” The Smiling Elephant recognizes the risk of food allergies and dietary restrictions. The chefs can prepare off-menu items if they have adequate ingredients.
