7 Nashville Hidden Gems

King Tut’s
King Tut’s is the crown jewel of Nolensville Pike hidden gems in my opinion. Permanently parked at 3716 Nolensville Pike, King Tut’s serves authentic Egyptian food with a New York flair. Over the last year, owner and chef Ragab Rashwan has built a beautiful outdoor patio adjacent to the truck. Complemented by a mural and plenty of plants, the BYOB patio provides a serene respite from the commercial hustle and bustle of South Nashville. Do not let the food truck or friendly prices fool you into thinking this is an average Mediterranean inspired restaurant. Chef Ragab carefully crafts his menu with local ingredients and the community in mind. Built on Chef Ragab’s experience owning a cafe in Cairo and working as a chef in New York City, nothing on the menu disappoints. Customer favorites are the falafel, lamb sandwich, and whatever specials Chef Ragab has prepared for the day. The falafel, which are vegan, are truly the best I have ever had. For people seeking a truly special experience, reach out to Ragab about setting up a private dinner at the patio. While the food is excellent, King Tut’s is a neighborhood favorite because of Chef Ragab’s kind heartedness and generosity.  @kingtutsnashville
