Sophisticated cocktail at Nashville new restaurant openings.

Bringing Paris to Nashville: A Culinary Escape

If there's one thing Nashvillians love, it's a great meal paired with a vibrant atmosphere, and what better way to experience this than at the newly opened Pastis? A Chicago native and a stalwart of the New York dining scene, Keith McNally has finally brought his iconic Parisian brasserie to the historic May Hosiery Mills complex in Wedgewood Houston. Pastis evokes the essence of a charming Parisian eatery, instantly whisking diners away from the hustle and bustle of Nashville to the romantic streets of Paris.

A Timeless Experience Awaits

Since its inception in 1999, Pastis has been a quintessential dining destination for foodies seeking an authentic brasserie experience. McNally's vision captures more than just great food; it offers a sense of escapism. As you step inside, you're greeted by an ambiance filled with antique tables, bentwood chairs, and luxurious red leather banquettes. The atmosphere is infused with delightful buzz—the clinking of glasses and the laughter of patrons combining to create a vibrant dining experience that feels both timeless and magical.

Delectable Dishes and Handcrafted Cocktails

At Pastis, the menu reads like a love letter to French cuisine. Signature dishes such as Chicken Kiev served with whipped potato purée and the buttery Trout Amandine evoke the richness of traditional recipes. Meanwhile, enjoy a glass of expertly selected wine or one of their thoughtfully crafted cocktails. For cocktail enthusiasts, the Le Jardin and Le Petite Pickle promise delightful sips that complement your meal beautifully.
