Turkey And The Wolf Icehouse
Turkey And The Wolf is a New Orleans sandwich legend that's taking Nashville by storm
Included In
The New Orleans location of Turkey And The Wolf kicked off the hypey sandwich shop trend nearly 10 years ago. Now, they're open in East Nashville with long lines, slinging those same iconic sandwiches—like the saucy collard melt and the famous fried bologna. Come for lunch and get one of those, plus any vegetable side, like the cabbage salad tossed in a roasted chili-coconut vinaigrette, and pay attention to the “cold sandwiches” section of their menu. In typical Turkey And The Wolf quirkiness, it’s just a list of beers.
The line moves quick, so after you order, find a table in the yard, sip your Coors Banquet, and promptly warn the neighbors about the joyful expletives you’re about to utter. They’re also slowly rolling out Nashville-only specials, so look for hashbrown and salmon roe sandwiches or flaky spanakopita.
With this opening, Cleveland Park has become possibly the hottest restaurant neighborhood in town: Folk, Audrey, Redheaded Stranger, Xiao Bao, and now Turkey And The Wolf are all within a few blocks of each other.
