NASHtoday staff here. We receive hundreds of thank you emails every week, and often you ask how you can support us. That’s why we’ve created this campaign with a goal to raise $2,500 by the end of the week. If you’ve gotten something out of being subscribed to NASHtoday, like finding that life-changing concert in our Events section. Or using our City Guides to plan the perfect way to spend the day with family, we couldn’t be more honored to be a part of your life — and we’re calling on you now to help support our mission.
Ready, set, feast

As for the menu, The Eye serves some of the bar’s fan-favorite apps like pepperoni rollers + signature flatbreads. Pair your meal with a frozen version of “The Hurricane,” which is exclusive to this level and made with rum, Ole Smoky moonshine, and passion fruit purée.
