Mangia Nashville

My friend and I had a wonderful time at Family Dinner. The food, service and family environment that was created was wonderful! I would like to encourage anyone who attends to sit back, relax, get to know your neighbors and don't be a bore during the dinner conversations. Honestly, had we ended up at the other end of the table with some not so fun guests, it wouldn't have been as exciting. This is a family diner after all, sharing is caring and the more the merrier!

What a great way to spend a valentine's night! My inlaws loved it too!

Went on Valentines Day. Meal from 7-1030. Good food. Great time.

Great food, laid back atmosphere. Recommend to anyone looking for good Italian food.

Should have better ventilation in the kitchen. Food was great. Service was great.

This is our second visit and I must say I enjoyed our first visit wat more. This visit was over populated just too many people so it was hard to just enjoy the experience. That being said it was still an awesome experience, just maybe not reserve to such a limit as when we were there.

Wow. What a dining experience! The mood , the servers, the food all fantastic. The servers guide you through the evening of singing, dancing and of course eating. Wonderful italian recipes. Flavorful and delicious. The owner comes out to “ genuinely “ thank you . We are coming back .......

This is much more casual than advertised. The ambiance of this restaurant wasn't great. The food was ok Italian food. Very forgettable. The service was really awful. Our waitress clearly hated her job and acted like we were an inconvenience to us.

The service, decor, and ambiance of this hidden gem were outstanding! Our waitress, Kiri, was extremely helpful in making suggestions for us as "first timers". We had the short rib meatballs as an appetizer and they were delicious. I opted for sun-dried tomato pasta with spinach cream sauce and it was out of this world. Hubby chose the steak sandwich and it was dynamite. Zeppoles for dessert. Yummo! We will be back...again, and again, and again!

This was our first visit to Mangia and Rachel welcomed us and took great care of us! We loved everything we ordered from starters to the cannoli finish! We will be back for sure!

Excellent food and really nice service. Ambiance is so-so for this old person with money, but probably okay for people that never wear anything but jeans. Attractive bar area and good prices. I apologize for not liking the environment more. It's not bad, just not very warm....On the other hand, no one has to dress up, and that seems to be more important to most people..just not to me. It shouldn't stop ANYONE from going here for the great food.

It was our 39th Anniversary of our first date (it was a blind date). We always go out to an Italian restaurant as we went out for Italian food on our first date. At first were a little off-put as we were seated with six people rather than a table for two but they were very nice & we had a great evening. The food was delicious and enjoyed the music & dancing (didn't participate much, as Dan has a bad knee and I had surgery a couple of months ago). Have told everyone how great the food was & it was so much fun.

Terrific Birthday for my father! Thanks Mangia for making it so special!

this was our second party at Mangia and it again was one of the best dining and fun night experiences we have had. the Saturday Italian wedding night theme is a ball and the food is outstanding.

Go hungry! We went for a 3 hour feast with a large group of friends on a Friday night. I really enjoyed myself.....the food was good and the atmosphere is great! It’s a bit pricey especially if you add drinks and I would have preferred a little more presence by the waitress in terms of refilling drinks, but I would recommend this place to anyone who loves Italian food and would enjoy a little entertainment on the side.

Wonderful food and entertainment.

Food is always amazing and it’s such a fun experience

It was our first dining experience. I took my boyfriend as a surprise for his birthday. We both loved it! The food and service were excellent. The concept and entertainment was awesome! Will definitely recommend.

This place is absolutely phenomenal ! The staff was very attentive. The music dancing and food was excellent! I you have never been you simply don’t know what you are missing!

Mangia's is amazing! Fun staff!! The 3 hour feast was so much fun and the food is onve again Amazing!!! Great for a fun group, birthdays and girl's night out.

EXECELLENT gluten free service! Manager and servers are very knowledgeable about gluten free food, and the charcoal gluten free bread is delicious!

The weekend family style meal is more of an event. The tables are a little tight, but the food is great and plan to stand up and dance and sing.

It was a very fun place to have an office party. We were celebrating Christmas and it was fun to get up and dance and try new foods.

This is a wonderful dining experience for friends and family visiting, celebration of milestones, and fun date nights. The food is ALWAYS spectacular and you will always leave with something to take home. We’ve gone more than half a dozen times now and it’s worth every penny. Only recommendation is wear comfy clothing (the meal is huge) and shoes you can dance a little in.

We went on Saturday night with a large group for the price fix. Food, entertainment and service all above average. Something for everyone.

It's not just dinner, it's an experience! We took our family from out of town and they couldn't believe what a fun and delicious evening it was. It is not inexpensive, but it's worth it.

We had never been before to Mangia! It was a blast ! Such fun and a great atmosphere . The seating is pretty tight , especially if you get the table that uses the red bench which is not very comfortable . They packed us in for sure . Next time I’ll know to request to not be along the wall with the red bench !
Overall a great experience and we already have reservations to go again!

Beyond disappointed. Was it that we were there on a Thursday and there are different chefs/cooks on Friday and Saturday? The waitress might have been first timer but didn’t bring half of what was ordered and when reminded, still never brought it, after 2 reminders? And the food ordered truly was lacking in taste and quality. Oddly the ceasar salad was good, but the italian was some of the worst we ever have had. After the reviews posted here we were expecting at least good but this was truly bad food and service. Bummed.

Fantastic food and fun!

A true Nashville gem! Outstanding food all served up by a chef--an owner-and employees who clearly CARE! It's such a rarity to find that these days! Leave your troubles outside and come feel like you are a part of an Italian family who you have known forever.

Wonderful, wonderful experience. We are going back and telling everyone!!

Hands down the best dining experience ever! I always take my out of town visitors, friends and family there and the food, entertainment and overall experience never fails to exceed my expectations! Mangia is the best!!

A super fun dinner! Great food and plenty of it plus dancing and singing, Great place to celebrate with family and friends.

Nick Pellegrino has created a welcoming space for paisanos and those who love great Italian food. Cocktails are on-point, food is always perfect and everything from the focaccia to the cannoli is available gluten-free. Salúd!

It's more than great fun & delicious family style Italian food! It's a immersive 3 hrs spent with an Italian family !

Great time at Mangia. Great food. Great service. Great atmosphere. We’ll be back.

Great experience. Had so much fun. However corkage fee should have stayed at 10.00 per bottle. 20.00 is a bit excessive!!!

GREAT FUN FOR MY DAUGHTER'S BIRTHDAY PARTY ON A FRIDAY NIGHT!

We took some new friends there, and the food was amazing!! Best lasagna I ever had in my life! Can't wait to go back and try some of the other dishes. Wow!!

Awesome environment and absolute blast to be there for dinner. I wouldn't quite call it a dinner, moreso an event with 9 courses of food. Presentation was great, food fantastic, and overall energy was second to none. 5 Star food and 5 event with family and friends.

Had a very good time and so much food. We loved the dancing, I wish there had been more. Maybe a little dance party at the end of the evening. The owner and I believe his wife were GREAT. And the food was very good. Don’t eat the bread, you’ll run out of room for all the other stuff.
The only negative thing we noted was ordering drinks was difficult. The servers didn’t check on us for drinks. At one point a server came to remove plates and told us she couldn’t take our drink order. I wanted to do their recommendations for each course, but didn’t get a chance. We ended up getting a bottle of wine after we realized it was too long between visits to our table. This worked out much better.
