History

Established in 1995.

The original Monell's was opened on Thanksgiving day in 1995 in the historic Germantown location in downtown Nashville. Since then, Monell's is currently in Gallatin, a café near 100 Oaks Mall and our newest sister restaurant, Monell's at the Manor. This location was once home to the famous New Orleans Manor for over 40 years. We serve family style, where you are placed at large tables with other folks, and we bring out platters of good home cooking. One price, menu is selected, just sit, eat, talk and enjoy.
