With all of the wonderful things that come with Thanksgiving, there are also tradeoffs. You get to see family, but that means you have to prep the house. The day culminates in a great meal, which you have to cook. Time to watch the big game, after you do the dishes.
If you would rather skip the Thanksgiving chores and go straight to enjoying an amazing meal with no cleanup required, we don’t blame you! In fact, we fully support it. Here are some Nashville restaurants who will be opening their doors on Turkey Day. Please read the fine print before making plans—many of these establishments require advance reservations.
