Few restaurants embody the warmth, comfort, and soul of Nashville quite like Tailor. Culinary Creator Vivek Surti has created an unforgettable South Asian American dining experience, built on the back of a rotating menu that’s intimate, personal, and like nothing else in the country. Step into a space that is as inviting as they come, and experience the nostalgic Indian flavors and mouth watering presentation that has made Tailor a top shelf destination. The space itself feels more like a friend’s home than a restaurant, with exposed brick walls, bespoke decorations, and no communal tables in sight. Warm light shines down from the enormous crystal chandelier – an actual heirloom from chef Surti’s family home – which sets the stage for a truly pleasant meal. Grab a drink at the side bar, sink into a blueberry leather seat, and clink glasses with close company. You might catch a glimpse of Surti explaining the meal to come, or if you’re lucky, opening a bottle of bubbly with a saber.

Tailor’s seasonal coursed menu is airtight, with only 7-8 dishes to enjoy, which should speak to their quality. Winter 2024’s menu, for example, is lauded for the Kadhi, a yogurt soup carefully seasoned with cumin, white turmeric, and ginger. Dip the handmade Thelpi frybread in the concoction, but save room for the Sweet Potato Bhel, Surti’s take on an iconic Indian Street food, and the signature Amaroo Hills Farm duck, served as both a perfectly marinated breast, and a jaw-droppingly tender duck confit biryani. There’s no way of knowing what awaits you at your reservation, and no doubt that it will be something magical.

The beverage services at Tailor are world-class, with a large selection of domestic and international wines to complement your meal. An entire page of inventive and original cocktails is sure to delight every palette, with options ranging from sweet and light to bold and timeless. But for the true Tailor experience, the beverage pairing cannot be skipped. It features many captivating choices from the lengthy beverage menu, whose stories and qualities make the experience all the more memorable. For those who don’t partake, there’s even a spirit-free pairing that features all the teas and tonics best suited to supplement the delicious food.

The gorgeous dining room is available for large parties and buyouts, which can be arranged upon request. Whatever the occasion, let Zocha Group handle your restaurant reservation for easy access to the excitement.
