LOCATED IN THE HEART OF WEST NASHVILLE
407 53RD AVENUE NORTH
NASHVILLE, TN 37209

If you're fixin’ to get some of the best meat-and-three in Nashville, you’ve gotta make sure your folks don’t get turned around. Wendell Smith’s is a local treasure, but Nashville traffic can be a real bear if you don't know the shortcuts.

 

Coming from West Nashville (Bellevue/West Meade)

Now, if you’re coming in from out west, just hop on I-40 East like you’re headed toward town. You’re gonna want to take Exit 205 for 46th Avenue.

Once you hit the bottom of that ramp, take a left. You’ll go under the interstate and keep on straight past the Produce Place—don’t get distracted by the tomatoes just yet. When you hit Charlotte Avenue, take a left right there at the light. Keep your eyes peeled once you pass the White Bridge intersection. You’re gonna look for that big yellow and blue sign on your right. If you pass the old car wash, you’ve gone a lick too far.

Coming from Downtown/East Nashville

If you’re coming from downtown, just head straight out Charlotte Avenue. It’s a straight shot, but it’s got a lot of lights, so don't be in a hurry.

You’ll pass by the old Richland Park—that's where the library is. Keep on going past 51st Avenue. You’re gonna see the restaurant tucked right there behind the liquor store on the corner of 53rd and Charlotte. Now, listen: the parking lot is a bit tight, so if it’s lunch rush, you might have to circle the block once or twice. Just look for the crowd of folks in work shirts; that's how you know you're in the right spot. Or, we have additional parking down that side street where we are starting work on our drive-through.

Coming from North Nashville/Bordeaux

Coming from across the river? Just take Briley Parkway South and get off at the Charlotte Pike exit. Turn left toward town.

You’re gonna drive for a bit, passing all those car dealerships and the Target. Keep on coming through the Sylvan Park area. Once you see the Wendell Smith’s Liquor Store, you’ve made it. The restaurant is right behind it. If you hit the interstate on-ramp, you missed your turn, sugar.
