    Took my family of four there for dinner on a Saturday nigh. I was craving the bread and bruschetta. Our fried mozzerella cheese came to us cold. I think only two of them got eaten. I ordered the caprese salad and bruschetta. I never got the bruschetta. And our waitress was pretty absent most of the time. The drinks were condtantly empty. And the day after, my husband’s stomach is still hurting him after the lasagna. Avoid it at all costs

    Drinks not refilled. Food not good. Chicken seemed old/not fresh. Service not good. Will never go back. Seemed understaffed but only 10 tables of customers. Shouldn’t be too hard to refill water one time even if understaffed.

    Anniversary meal. After being seated at a table by the mall window, we had to ask for an interior table. Service was a little slow, but our waitress was great, and the food was delicious! Also, we got a free dessert for the occasion. Overall, a pretty good experience!

    Food was not as good as I remember it being several years ago. Don’t put “crispy Brussels sprouts” on the menu if they are going to come out soggy, and not even the slightest bit crispy. Would be nice to have a sharp knife if you give us a chunk of bread to cut ourselves. Service was pretty good, but then he ignored us after we got our food.

    We go to Opry Mills Macaroni Grill twice a year. It was good to see they still had some of our favorite wait staff ( Luke) He is always on point with taking our orders, friendly, and he even remembers us. I would hate to see this restaurant close Also, we use this restaurant a lot for take-out orders.

    Food and service were excellent. Only concern was the fact that the heat was out and the managers kept opening the doors where the draft from outside could come in. After a couple of attempts, they agreed to close one door and leave one open so only half the amount of cold wind entered the restaurant.

    The restaurant had 3 tables sat out of around 30 and would not seat us. Said they were short staffed but I saw 3 servers literally doing nothing. Said it was a 2 hr wait. We had a reservation and still did not get sat. It was all very bizarre so we left. Would NOT recommend AT ALL.

    We knew this wasn’t going to be fine dining but the poor service, lack of sufficient staff (no host/hostess, not enough kitchen workers and overworked wait staff) was truly appalling. Oh and the food was inedible. Wasn’t our server’s fault so we paid the bill and gave her a huge tip and left for our event without finishing the meal. Would have been better to eat in the mall food court.

    This was the worst dining experience that we have had in a long time. Restaurant not neat and tidy, drinks came slow, bread came slow, salad came late and wrong dressing, several requests made to waitress were forgotten and had to be repeated, pasta dish not very flavorful. Not very many diners that night so it did not seem staff shortage was a problem. Table next to ours was offered free dessert so they must have had some problems as well. It seems the restaurant is not well run.

    We really wanted to go earlier for Thanksgiving but took the first reservation at 6:30. When we arrived a few minutes earlier, there was only 2 tables with people. We were gonna order from special menu, they were out of everything we wanted.and would accept no substitutes. We ended ordering mostly from regular menu. We made reservations for the purpose of getting th traditional Thanksgiving dinner. They knew we were coming, where was the food?

    Thanksgiving Dinner was great! Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and fun. So glad we discovered this location planned on being open for a special holiday meal service. They were out of a few things but that was okay because we were more focused on having a good time.

    Called in to reserve. Was given 12:30 pm time. Arrived on time but waited for 15 minutes to be seated. No host/hostess around. Saw too many tables empty in fact the restaurant was only 20% full. The lady that eventually seated us was quite aware of our presence because we can see her from the kitchen and she ignored the people waiting around 10 people to be seated including us. Don’t know what she was doing in the kitchen but it was apparent to us that she’s just watching the kitchen staff.

    Stay away from this restaurant. Our son took us there the night we arrived in Nashville. There were no tables “available” even thought the restaurant was nearly empty. I questioned the host as to why since the restaurant was almost empty and she replied there were short on staff and if we still wanted to eat there there was a 1 1/2 hr wait time. We left. Our son still wanted to take us there (not sure why) so I made a reservation for the next day. After finally finding a parking spot in the overcrowded Opry Mills mall we go in. This time the host was a different lady, (older lady with blondish hair and glasses). Well, she could not have been more rude. She said we did not have a reservation. I showed her the confirmation e-mail as well as the confirmation from Open Table where I made the reservation. She insisted my name was not on the list and that she did not understand why or how I made a reservation because their system was down and was not taking reservations. Yet she proceeded to show me the list of the people who had “reservations” to show me my name was not in it all while continuing to argue with me about it. She said I could put you on the waiting list which was 45 minutes. We ended up leaving again. Never again will I go there (well we were only visiting) but I won’t go to any Romano’s. If they are so short on staff and are providing less than mediocre service, (even though they act as if they are the finest italian restaurant) they need to evaluate things or close down the place until further notice. I would not waste my time or money on this restaurant or any Romano’s ever again.

    Read the prior reviews!!! Hostess could totally care less that people came in. We saw many people come in, wait, get ignored, then leave. No clue what she was doing but would only come to the front every 15 minutes or so. Our server was fine. Food just okay. Definitely not worth what they charge. Go elsewhere for a better meal. Shame on me for not following recent reviews.
