Voted the No. 1 Restaurant in the U.S. by Food + Wine readers, Yolan is an authentic experience of Italian cuisine done right, located at The Joseph Nashville. A true love letter to Italy, Yolan pays homage to the Pizzuti family's heritage and Joseph's wife, Yolanda.

Perfect for dining family style, the a la carte menu features signature dishes paired with seasonal highlights, complemented by breads and dolci by our talented pastry team.

Nashville's only Forbes Travel Guide Star Award restaurant and recipient of Wine Spectator's Best of Award of Excellence, Yolan features an extensive wine list of Italian varietals and producers, as well as world-renowned regions and makers.

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: Nashville’s only Forbes Star Award-winning restaurant, Yolan goes all-in on Italian fine dining—think exquisite pastas, a 55-day dry-aged strip steak, and white truffle supplements. Exceptional service, a standout Italian-leaning wine list, and stellar desserts from pastry chef and 2023 James Beard semifinalist Noelle Marchetti make this swanky spot inside The Joseph Nashville hotel the ultimate dining destination.

    Yolan isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a culinary cathedral where every bite is a revelation. The atmosphere? Elegance draped in warmth. The service? Flawless, as if choreographed by the gods of hospitality. And the food? A divine symphony of flavors that makes time stand still. Every dish feels like it was crafted with Michelangelo’s precision and Botticelli’s passion. If taste buds could cry, mine would have wept tears of pure joy. Yolan is not a meal; it’s an ascension.

    The food and service was fantastic, if you’re looking for a private quiet setting this isn’t the place. But overall the food was perfect and so was the service

    I feel like I have been to every fine dining establishment in Nashville, searching for something that would really blow me away. Last night, my fiance and I finally made it to Yolan. As an industry professional, I can usually find one or two things to criticize, but Yolan was amazing. The service was welcoming and professional (Callie was our server and an absolute pleasure), the food was complex but approachable and delicious, and the venue itself was gorgeous. Overall, I’d have to say it was the best meal I’ve had in Nashville period. Thank you for making our Valentines dinner one we’ll never forget!

    Restaurant did not disappoint. And while the food was great the service was phenomenal. Everyone we interacted with was personable, knowledgeable, engaged and attentive. A great deal of the credit is undoubtably due to leadership of the Manager Dauphine. Yolan is as much about the experience as the food.

    definitely an upscale restaurant with excellent service and presentation. Waiter was friendly and informative. Some of the food was a bit on the salty side (common issue in the south). The pasta is made in house and very good. The prices were high for some of the dishes. I don't think I've ever seen gnocchi for $75.I was charged $50 for a glass of wine that I wasn't anticipating, due to asking for a different wine recommendation to sample but not realizing the price difference. It might have been nice to have been informed of the price of the server-recommended wine choice. those things aside it was one of our better dining experiences in Nashville. 
    YolanResponded 7 days ago
    Thanks for the feedback, Chris! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your experience at Yolan. We're glad our service and presentation met your expectations. We appreciate your comments about the saltiness of our food and will take them into consideration. We apologize for the confusion with the wine and will ensure our team is informed of any pricing discrepancies. We hope to serve you again soon. Best, The Management Team.
