Philippe Chow is preparing for its first-ever Nashville outpost in Cummins Station in the Gulch neighborhood. The dining destination, known for its modern take on Beijing classics and upscale Manhattan experience, launches on October 17.
For 20 years, the New York flagship has defined Philippe Chow’s identity. The Nashville debut brings classic favorites like Peking Duck and Chicken Satay to Music City, alongside new dishes created just for the city. Philippe Chow has also curated exclusive new dishes for the latest eating spot in Cummins Station.
Philippe Chow, Nashville, will open Sunday through Thursday from 5 to 10 p.m. and Friday through Saturday from 5 to 11 p.m.
The latest Nashville location is the Beijing-style restaurant’s fourth U.S. outpost. Two of Philippe Chow’s outlets are based in New York and one in Washington, D.C.
“Philippe Chow has always represented timeless Beijing cuisine elevated with New York sophistication. Nashville has become one of the country’s most dynamic culinary destinations, and this is the perfect moment to bring our legacy here,” said Abraham Merchant, CEO of Philippe Chow. “Our vision is to create an extraordinarily high-touch dining experience that blends our twenty-year heritage with the warmth and energy of Music City.”
