How To Vist Nashville's 7 Most Iconic Restaurants
"A hard-to-miss neon sign welcomes you to this otherwise unassuming restaurant off Highway 100, just south of Nashville. Husband and wife Lon and Annie Loveless started the Loveless Cafe in the early 1950s as a motel/restaurant combination. Weary travelers would eat delicious homemade biscuits and fried chicken before getting some rest."

"Roze, meaning pink in Croatian, is a fitting nod to owner Julia’s heritage, with the color softly splashed throughout the monochrome interiors. Serving everything from brunch to late-night suppers, Cafe Roze is perfect for solo diners looking for a quick bite and group celebrations. The stout waffles, egg bowls and smoothies make this a popular place, so be prepared to wait in line on the weekends."

"With architecture modeled after a traditional Roman Basilica, the Cathedral of the Incarnation is the third Catholic cathedral constructed in Nashville. The primary architect for the building was Fred Asmus, and construction began in 1910 under the direction of Bishop Thomas Sebastian Byrne—Saint Martin’s on the Hill in Rome inspired the design. Construction of the building finished in 1914, and the church has since undergone two major renovations."
