Smoke Modern BBQ – Smokin’ Nachos

Yes, nachos are on here twice (we love them!) – but these are completely different nachos. With brisket (or pulled pork), house made queso & jalapeños, what’s not to love?

Alton’s Kitchen & Cocktails – Prime Rib Stuffed Mushrooms

Prime rib + mushrooms in the same bite = total winner. This is our go-to appetizer when taking people to Alton’s for the first time. Just try it – we promise you won’t regret it!

Flatiron Kitchen & Taphouse – Waygu Beef Sliders

Yes, Flatiron in Davidson is a steakhouse but that doesn’t mean you can’t order a burger as an appetizer. These are bite-size and oh-so-delicious.
