Yelper Jon H. wrote, "I have eaten my way across this country, and nowhere I've ever been holds as special a place in my heart as Big Al's. It is easily my favorite restaurant to ever exist, and there are very few places in the world you can eat the food of an incredibly talented chef for such knockout prices."
2. Nashville Biscuit House
Next up is Eastwood's Nashville Biscuit House, situated at 805 Gallatin Ave. With four stars out of 483 reviews on Yelp, the diner and Southern spot has proven to be a local favorite for those looking for a budget-friendly option.

3. Rise Nashville Downtown
Rise Nashville Downtown, located at 153 Fifth Ave. North, is another top choice, with Yelpers giving the affordable breakfast and brunch and Southern spot, which offers sandwiches and more, 4.5 stars out of 110 reviews.
Yelper Adam D. shared, "The Southern chicken biscuit was huge. The actual biscuit was nice-sized, and the fried chicken was not only fried to perfection but also so huge that it hung off the biscuit. Coupled with pimiento cheese and a couple of slices of bacon, and I was in biscuit heaven."

Cal's Country Kitchen, a Southern spot, is another much-loved, inexpensive go-to, with 4.5 stars out of 64 Yelp reviews. Head over to 222 Woodruff St. to see for yourself.
