Best Cozy Restaurants in Donelson

Wonderful family run business. Owners were friendly, passionate and went out of their way to be sure everyone was having great time.

The restaurant is small and cozy, but not in any way stuffy. Music was upbeat and fun and our server was very friendly and helpful with picking menu items. Now the food, the star of the night.. So good! Every bite from start to finish was delightful. We tried 4 of the 5 shareable plates and all were great. Highly recommend the corn ribs and the sweet potato dish!! We shared the pork chop entree and both my husband and I agree it’s one of the best pork chops we’ve ever eaten! We also had the red velvet Oreo cheesecake and it was also amazing! If I could give this restaurant 6 stars, I would. Can’t wait to go back!

We had a fantastic time celebrating Valentine’s Day. The food and service were fantastic!!

It was our first time at Koré after hearing so many amazing things about it - and boy did it not disappoint. The crispy rice & spicy tuna was unreal as well as the sticky ribs having heavenly fall of the bone meat. The mi cucumber was phenomenal and the truffle mac & cheese wonderful. Our server Kensington was AMAZING and walked us through the entire menu for our first time - kudos to all the staff & kitchen as well. Thanks for making our Valentine’s Day so easy to enjoy!

10/10 experience. They have thought of every detail to curate a perfect vibe. The small, intimate 14 seat room makes it feel like you are connected to the chefs preparing each selection. The drink choices were unique and so delicious. It was hard to pick a favorite course because they were all so so good! Can’t wait to go back!! Def. worth staying up until midnight to snag that reservation!!
