We had just gotten in to Nashville (Brentwood) and searched trip advisor for a place to eat dinner that was close to our hotel... Local Taco was an excellent choice. Great little menu with interesting options and it was a great place to flop down after a 7 hour drive and just relax with a margarita and some interesting "street... More

Stopped here on our way through and this restaurant was on our hotel's list.After checking them out on Trip Advisor, we headed there for dinner. The restaurant used to be a firehouse and has been in business for three years. Tables were full, but we did not have to wait on a Saturday night.We found the menu to be full... More

If you are looking for the hipster, yuppie version of Mexican tacos, enchiladas and fajitas then this is the place. Need to set your tastebuds for a variation, otherwise the food here will disappoint. Even the drinks were a different variation on the usual margaritas. (And pretty light on the tequila too.) The chips served with queso dip were stale... More

Local Taco provides a unique twist on Mexican. I have never had anything I didn't love. My favorite is the fried chicken tacos!

This is one of my favorite "local" spots in Brentwood, and my most recent visit did not disappoint me. The fried beet/goat cheese salad is incredible. My husband usually tries to "steal" some of my fried beets, so on this visit he ordered the fried beets as a side item. The server was great! Although the fried beets are not... More

We went expecting something different. It was recommended by coworkers. The food wasn't all that good, in fact, it wasn't good at all. I think this is more of a spot for cocktails. Cocktails were good. Just don't eat dinner here.

Any restaurant that can put tasty twists on beets, cauliflower and turnip greens and new gnosh versions of tator tots gets my vote! And these are just the sides! A New American rendition of food in a tortilla is what they serve. Atmosphere is grown up bar so all college alums will feel right at home. Outdoor seating available and... More

Unique combinations and great drinks. My favorite is a tie between the Korean bbq and fish taco.
