New Nashville restaurants, bars to look forward to this spring

Tennessean, March 19, 2026

“Sally’s Stay Awhile is set to open in spring in Wedgewood‑Houston, marking Andy Little’s return to a permanent kitchen after overseeing culinary operations for Strategic Hospitality. The restaurant will be the group’s second concept in the swiftly growing neighborhood, following Bastion. This is Little's first standalone kitchen since Josephine closed in late 2023 and is intended to be an easy, all‑day neighborhood restaurant rather than a special‑occasion spot. The restaurant will serve breakfast, lunch and dinner, with familiar dishes ranging from breakfast sandwiches and pastries to rotisserie chicken, prime rib, pasta and seasonal sides. There will also be a full bar and a robust to‑go program.”
