Hands down the best Italian food in Nashville and possibly some of the best in the U.S. so far. On par with or better than Italian food in Boston. Having just returned from 2 weeks in Italy, I can honestly say this is authentic Italian! Every dish was amazing, especially the pasta.

The drinks and food were amazing! The arancini with the melted parmesan from the garlic bread is a great combo and the fusilli pesto and radiatori vodka was great! We also got the dark chocolate budino and it was fantastic. Stef, our server, was great and so friendly. Will definitely come back another time!!

This was an absolutely amazing experience for my girlfriend and I. We consider ourselves foodies and this restaurant did not disappoint. The flavors were exquisite. Flavor dynamics that paired so well with each other! In a word, savory. The staff were very polite, the food was amazing, and the atmosphere was subdued in serenity. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience!

Greeted at the door by the chef, my wife and I were whisked away (cooking pun there…) to the back room of the restaurant. There we were seated and greeted by an attractive server and had our special menu explained to us. We had the choice of escargots, a brief interlude of boeuf bourguignon, and I had the steak frites while my wife enjoyed the confit of duck. We were finished off with a traditional cheese plate with a variety of cheeses from around Europe. All the food items were fabulous and the wine pairings were perfect! I will complain that the portions were oversized for me. We were nearly full from the escargots, and the boeuf was a full dinner portion in itself. The ribeye steak was as the chef explains it “what Americans expect”. I can’t fault him for giving his customers what they want, although I personally would prefer a more authentic experience with a smaller skirt or flank steak and about half the amount of fries. To summarize: go there. Eat. You will not regret a thing!
