PHOENIX — The Old Town Scottsdale bar scene is about to get some southern flair with the opening of a new Nashville-themed restaurant and bar on Dec. 12, according to a press release on Friday.
Belle’s Nashville Kitchen, located near Main Street and Scottsdale Road, promises to bring the taste of Music City to the Valley of the Sun.
The menu features iconic choices like a hot chicken sandwich with house fried chicken doused in spices on a brioche bun with coleslaw and dill pickles, along with other favorites jambalaya, spicy barbecue sauce-baked salmon and fries topped with bacon, hot sauce, house-made blue cheese and green onions.
Alcohol options include a mixology-forward cocktail program with an array of whiskey and bourbon craft cocktails along with tequila, mezcal, rum and vodka variations.
Award-winning chef Samantha Roberts, behind other Scottsdale favorites El Hefe Mexican Restaurant, Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row and Riot House, developed the menu, according to the release.
