About The Grilled Cheeserie

Created by husband-and-wife team Joseph Bogan and Crystal De Luna-Bogan, a Le Cordon Bleu–trained chef, The Grilled Cheeserie introduced its food truck to the Nashville community in 2010 and opened its brick-and-mortar restaurant in 2017 in Hillsboro Village. Their entire concept revolves around transforming a classic comfort food into an entirely new experience by taking a thoughtful and elevated approach into everything they do.

The Grilled Cheeserie has been featured on Food Network’s Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives and Guy’s Grocery Games. They were also featured on the Cooking Channel’s Eat St., voted Best Food Truck in the Nashville Scene 10 years running, and were listed #3 on Mobile-Cuisine’s Top 10 Most Influential Food Trucks and #7 on thedailymeal.com’s 101 Best Food Trucks in America in 2015. They were also honored with the 2016 Chairman’s Award for Small Businesses by the Nashville Business Incubation Center.
