This is mostly a locals only place though loved by all that know about it. This has been a West Nashville staple since forever and though our neighborhood has undergone major changes, good ol' Wendell Smith's is the same as it was in the 50's. Sweet tea and (southern) diner favorites in a no-frills spot. There's also a drive-thru.
