    Solid. Biggest mozzarella sticks I’ve ever seen. Wife liked shrimp with truffle risotto. I had a ravioli special that was good. Son had chicken parm, I liked that they put the fresh mozzarella on instead of tons of shredded mozzarella. Service was excellent

    I was exciting to finally try this place but I was very disappointed.. The service was great and the ambiance is also fine but it was the most bland Italian food I've had in Nashville. Very overrated. I will not be returning
