Truly a must when in Nashville. Everything was amazing. Their coffee was nice and strong. Their pastries are beautifully crafted and taste as good as they look. Even their basic breakfast items such as the 2 eggs with choice of meat and toast was phenomenal. We had the German chocolate french toast and the strawberry over night oats. I’m not a fan usually of either of these items but this changed my mind! I was blown away. Everyone was attentive and nice. I even saw the chefs running food which really shows how much of a great team it must be. Will recommend to everyone and I will be back!

The service and food, as usual, were exemplary. We LOVE Yolan! Every visit has been excellent. However, we do miss their fabulous focaccia!

Food was excellent ambiance was like a coffee shop and wine list was priced out of this world!! Waiters were pretentious and arrogant. We got ignored, even though we were a party of four. 2 years ago, we had better service. we also had better service at breakfast in Café Yolan then our dining experience.

Okay so this is for sure a hotel restaurant…so it’s a little…business-y as far as ambiance goes. However, the food was AMAZING. My boyfriend and I both got a coffee and an entree, and then another entree to split because it just sounded too good (and it was). My latte was delicious. His drip coffee was…alright drip coffee. 🤷🏻‍♀️ All in all, I would for sure eat at this restaurant again. We had a very nice time and our server was wonderful.

A bit noisy and echoing-would have appreciated a more intimate setting given the vibe of the hotel. But excellent and attentive service- food was some of the best!

Poor choices for substitution. Food came and was not what I had ordered. I had to wait for them to redo meal while others ate. No gestures to make up for it.
