🍣 Nashville's BEST Japanese Restaurant: Virago!
Finally found a hidden gem for authentic Japanese cuisine in Nashville—and it’s so close to campus! 🎉 I’ve been three times already and still crave more. 😭 📍 Virago (Perfect for dates, small groups, or solo indulgence!) ✨ Must-Order Dishes 🦐 Rock Shrimp ($16) Their signature dish—crispy fried shrimp tossed in a creamy, tangy sauce (like mayo meets citrus?). Addicting! 🐂 Kogi Yaki ($24) Grilled Wagyu skewers—so tender, so flavorful (4 sticks per order). 🍗 Yuzu Chicken ($17) Juicy salt-grilled chicken skewers with pineapple for a sweet-sour kick. 🍘 Crispy Rice + Spicy Tuna ($16) CRUNCHY rice cakes topped with spicy tuna + watermelon sugar (!). Sweet, spicy, umami—WOW. 🐟 Truffle & Caviar Salmon ($24) Seared salmon with black truffle + caviar—luxe but worth it. 🥩 A5 Wagyu + Foie Gras ($39) Buttery Wagyu (add foie gras for extra richness). Pricey but divine. 🍣 Unagi Foie Gras ($16) Eel sushi topped with a tiny slab of foie gras—best value! 🥦 Szechuan Cauliflower ($14) Roasted cauliflower with Sichuan sauce—weirdly delicious? 🍮 Thai Tea Brûlée Too sweet for me, but if you love dessert, the caramelized sugar + cream might win you over. 🍍 Drinks Tried their non-alcoholic pineapple drink, but their Wasabi Martini sounds wild! 🍸 💰 Price: ~$50/person (worth every penny!). 🌟 Verdict? Top-tier Japanese in Nashville—run, don’t walk! #NashvilleEats #JapaneseFood #VanderbiltEats #FoodieFinds #SushiLover 🍱🔥
