Outstanding! One of the best meals we have ever had! Each dish was elevated to another level and was the best we have had of its kind (eg gnocchi, crispy brussels, cornbread, roast chicken, flourless chocolate cake with brown butter gelato). Wonderful service. Great atmosphere. We will recommend and return when in Nashville again!

We enjoyed Pelato. We took out 10-year-old so it was great being able to order tapa sized portions so we could all try lots of different things.

Overall enjoyable experience! Waiter was attentive and not overbearing. Food was outstanding and seasoned well, though a bit heavy with all four dishes ordered having a sauce or dip. Maybe a pallet cleanser between courses would help?! Don’t view this as a complaint, but a suggestion to improve. With tickets to a TPAC show, the staff made sure to serve without any rush and have us out the door to our show. Kudos!
