The Mockingbird is a modern diner located in Nashville’s The Gulch neighborhood at 121A 12th Avenue North and is led by the talented culinary duo of executive chef Brian Riggenbach and front-of-house extraordinaire Mikey Corona, who are also partners in the project. Inspired by the restaurant’s namesake, The Mockingbird’s menu mimics its surroundings, offering comfort food favorites influenced by the many global elements that make up American culture and cuisine. The restaurant plays with a special sense of whimsy that is evoked in chef Riggenbach’s menu, featuring a variety of small plates, large plates, sides and desserts, plus a playful cocktail menu that includes adult milkshakes and seasonal punches. The Art Deco-inspired two-story eatery is friendly and welcoming, offering two expansive patio deck areas that allow diners the option to eat al fresco.
