Our sever Trent was very nice and knowledgeable. He gave good recommendations as it was my first time eating here and my first time to Nashville. I am a big foodie so everywhere I travel i try to find the top rated restaurants so I can review them. I got the chalk hill Chardonnay 2glasses and let me say that wine tasted like one I had from wine country in California it was delicious. Then i ordered calamari and it was Okay they peppers had the most flavor I wish it came with a aioli type of dipping sauce. For entree I got the ravioli and my bf got lasagna. The ravioli was delicious and the texture was great the cheese was very rich though. The lasagna was definitely the star of the show! I would come back without a doubt next visit.

First impression was wonderful; ambience, lighting, and music all very inviting. Every course was delicious. The calamari was cooked to perfection, and the buratta and watermelon salad was fresh and very tasty. I had the 5 meat lasanga and my wife had the ravioli. Both were wonderful. The service was impeccable.

Was so excited to try this place for my birthday but super disappointed. Ambiance was good when we got there. The servers were friendly but very un-attentive and extremely slow. To get more wine or every salt, we had to get up and go ask. We were there in total 3 hours. The appetizers were fine but the risotto was gummy, the rigatoni had a whole tomato left in the sauce, the lasagna has no flavor, nothing was salted. The price would’ve been fair if the food were decent but that wasn’t the case. Overall disappointing experience. :(

Underwhelming. Service was so slow, even for fine dining. Food was subpar. For that price point, I expect everything to be from scratch. Pasta was dried. Dessert was pre-portioned. Would not return.

For the quality of the food, we felt it was very overpriced. I was charged an extra $10 to add a side of spaghetti to by chicken parmigiana. This is the only Italian restaurant that I have been to that doesn’t include spaghetti with their chicken parm. The dish was too heavy on the cheese and the breading was soggy. My husband had lasagna. The taste of fennel was overwhelming. We did enjoy the salads we started the meal with.
