    Wow! What an experience. I was seated at the bar with my daughter and we were cared for the second we walked in. Our waiter had excellent customer service. The experience altogether felt like fine dining done right. Then comes the food. Sitting at the bar is a wonderful option and choice because you get to see the process itself and the artistry put into the craft. The menu is full of wonderfully paired meals and sides, one of my favorites being the califlower. The roasted vegetable itself had great color and flavor on it, but when paired with the sauces was unforgettable, and it truly felt high end. This didn’t stop at the appetizers, and both of our meals were also wonderful; wonderfully cooked and arranged in a way that made all of the thought put into the dishes evident. I ordered essentially the chefs choice for the night and it hit all of the parts of a good meal: salty, fatty, acidic, and spicy. With the perfect combination of sweet and whatever else to balance the meal. Desert was also a treat, and very well crafted. Overall a must go when in Nashville, would recommend, will be returning!!!

    Experience was solid we were celebrating a birthday and they gave a complimentary proseco pour which was very nice. We had two servers which was fine but one was very not personal and both seemed very busy and not able to actually spend time / inform the table, which for what the price is here, left a bit of a sour taste. Meal was good not great, id say comparable to a Rolf and Daughters level of pasta dish, and entrees again id rate like an 80/100. We have eaten here before and probably will again. If i can put my finger on It, the coldness of one server was really the issue. Food and drinks were solid!
