What are some good restaurants in Nashville, TN?

We are staying at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel and need some relatively close and decent restaurant options while we are in town. We are from Texas, so no mexican food. Any southern foods or bbq joints would be appreciated. Thanks!What are some good restaurants in Nashville, TN?
OK!!!



First, for breakfast, there is a Waffle House nearby. I know this sounds like a lame start to a list of restaurants, but boy, for good breakfast cheap, can't beat it.



Opryland hotel itself has some good restaurants. There are a lot of chain places nearby. Frankly, I'm just going to skip all those cause the real Nashville treasures are downtown. I just recommend going into town for most if not all your meals.



The essential Nashville breakfast: Pancake Pantry. expect to have to wait for a table, so go before you're ravenous, but do go! it's worth the wait in it's great food and fabulous Nashville-ness. This is one of the places you may see familiar faces (musicians,etc). (1796 21st Ave S, Nashville)



Elliston Place Soda Shop for lunch... a Meat-n-Three place. So good and so local. you may think this is a hole in the wall at first, but it is another really great favorite of the locals



Noshville - another good lunch with a different twist... good deli style food, Matzo ball soup is a GIANT hit, you can get carryout too (parking isn't always easy) and take it over to nearby Centennial Park... feed the ducks, check out the old steam engine train, tour the parthenon, etc.



Loveless Cafe - farther west - Bellevue to be exact. No matter what else you get, biscuits are essential. You might want to call ahead for reservations. This place is a HUGE hit with locals and celebs alike. One of the most photographed restaurants in Nashville at least! Very good. (8400 Highway 100)



This is a good city to eat at Hard Rock, being Music City USA...



Whitt's or Corky's for BBQ...



HRH Dumplins for incredible bread, chicken and dumplings, apple dumplings and a dessert counter that will make your pants split just looking at it.



You know, I think that the lunch places in Nashville really are the best. There are, of course, great dinner places, but go to Frommers or something to find out about those, cause they're pretty straightforward and frequently chains... Mortons, Melting Pot, etc.What are some good restaurants in Nashville, TN?
