If recent show news out of Nashville Yards’ The Pinnacle has you hungry for more updates — grab a fork.

The development will welcome Canada-based restaurant Earls Kitchen + Bar to the first floor of the venue by late 2025. The brand, which currently operates ~10 US locations, joins the development’s other previously announced restaurants like Culaccino and Fogo de Chão.

Led by Chef David Wong and inspired by world travels, Earls offers “upscale casual dining” and serves everything from pizza and steak to sushi and seafood. Take a look at the Washington menu — just to get a taste.

Pro tip: When it comes to a pre-show beverage, the restaurant is prided on its “industry-leading”margarita selection.
