    We were there for a bachelorette party. The ambience was perfect and our server David was amazing. The plates are advertised as tapas but I actually thought they had generous portions. The drinks are really good too. Also the polenta cake was probably the best dessert I’ve literally ever had!

    We chose Love Language based on a recommendation and internet reviews since we are not from Nashville. We made a last minute reservation and were able to get in right away. The staff was super friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The selection was small but thoughtfully curated and, most importantly, delicious. Highly recommend!

    Husband and I finally went for brunch. Thankfully he had the idea to just start with an app before ordering our mains. We got the cacio e pepe toast. There was ZERO flavor. One of the main ingredients is black pepper. There was not one speck and I had to ask for it. The soft scramble was done perfectly rot. I had two cocktails. The first one was very bitter the second—something with Zin in the name, was excellent. Super disappointing.

    Some dishes are very good, but many are just ok. Love the vibe, but it was so loud it was hard to hear people across the table. All of the pasta dishes were sold out as well which was a bummer.

    Ambience is great. Drinks were ok - the only rum drink they offered i had to return, lady Love (?) drink for a jack Daniels cocktail, which was very good. Our guests enjoyed their gin, manhattan, etc cocktails. Food was good. Reasonable small sampler plates with 2 entrees. Overall food was seasoned well. Chicken and pork (fried way too hard). Chicken was very good and tender. We supplemented with appetizers, Chocolated was shockingly tasty and suitable for 2 or 3 to share. Wait staff was very good, pleasant and efficient. Been there, done that but worth atleast 1 visit.

    Some dishes I really wanted to try were unfortunately portioned very small (when looking at Yelp, other review sites). So that was disappointing! We came with an appetite intentionally. I’ll know better for next time.

    Server kept trying to oversell to us the entire experience. He did not realize we were locals. We felt we were being taken advantage of. Will not be back.

    Love LanguageResponded on March 8, 2023We are very sorry you did not receive the 5 star service we are known for. We take one star reviews very seriously. In order to improve, are you able to provide the name of the server? Please clarify how you felt you were taken advantage of. Did you try and speak to a member of management? We appreciate your feedback and taking the time to write a review. However, our servers are taught to treat every guest the same, no matter where they are from.

    Very cool to see what has been done with the space. We were not prepared for this to be a “woo girl” restaurant, and we were immediately turned off by the disorganization at the door and having to navigate a sea of rude girls to find a hostess. Our table was fine, but it was so incredibly loud with tables shrieking that we contemplated getting up and leaving. Glad we didn’t, because the food was fantastic. We chose to share several of the small plates, and out of six, there wasn’t a miss. The tartare and artichokes were especially good. Dessert was surprisingly underwhelming, neither the Italian donuts nor the chocolate cake were great. Overall, I think this one is best left to the tourists. It’s a shame, because the food and service were good, but the ambiance (or lack thereof) just can’t overcome it

    My wife and I enjoyed our meal. Started with cocktails that were incredible. Food was superb and not something I think I would've gotten anywhere else. Dessert, however, felt a little lacking comparatively. Was good but could've used more flavor. Overall very good and will return.
