Duck Tacos
You’ll truly appreciate the taste range with these tacos. Flavorful with almost a sweetness that is not too overpowering but complementary.

What They're Saying

When guests sit down to order, there’s no QR code to scan. In keeping with Pullman Standard’s theme of bygone days, the menus are enclosed in leather covers — custom-made by artisans at Lockeland Leather in East Nashville — and secured with brass inserts to weave in one of the space’s key design elements. On this intentionality, Greg says “You get the [other senses] and then, when you sit down, this is the first thing you touch. I wanted to make sure that this was beyond reproach."

What They're Saying

For more-refined late-night fun, raise a toast at the new Pullman Standard: Just opened in the iconic Cummins Station building, the atmosphere hearkens back to the golden age of railway travel, with original cocktails such as the whiskey-based “Midnight Train.”

What They're Saying

Try shareable dishes such as the dry-aged beef tartare with fried brioche and oyster aioli, American Waygu with puffed bread, aerated cheddar and onion jam, or the Rohan duck stick with black cherry lacquer and pistachio. For dessert, the wasabi pea-mint soft serve in a black sesame cone is a treat you won’t find anywhere else. Of course, you shouldn’t skip the gorgeous craft cocktail menu featuring highlights like the Hotel Florence, inspired by an 1880s-era hotel in (appropriately) Chicago’s Pullman Historic District.

What They're Saying

"Pullman Standard’s impressive “snack” menu is crafted by a James Beard award winning chef - which I did not know when I ordered the pimiento cheese, but as soon as I tasted it, I knew that someone special had created that masterpiece."
