Tandy Wilson's Germantown restaurant won James Beard Best Chef Southeast in 2016 — an Italian-Southern hybrid that draws as much from Tennessee farms as from Italian tradition. The belly ham pizza is a signature; the pasta program is serious; the room is warm and unfussy. Wilson's cooking sits at a genuine intersection that most Italian-American restaurants only gesture toward. For Italian cooking with real Southern roots, by one of the city's most decorated chefs.
