Amazing restaurant with an even more amazing ambiance. We dined here to celebrate my husbands bday and were a party of 10. They accommodated us in an extravagant private room where we were able to have an incredible dinner feasting off various of their menu selections. The service was fantastic and they went above and beyond to ensure we had an extraordinary dinner! Would definitely recommend this restaurant and look forward to dining here again on my next visit to Nashville!

Our first meal of the New Year was absolutely delicious! The best lasagna I’ve ever had. My husband had the Alfredo which was fantastic as well. The wine, drink and dessert selections are amazing. The service and ambience was excellent. I highly recommend an evening here.

Reasonable food and does not meet expectations. We ordered a lasagna (tasteless), we ordered a lamb chop (it was unsalted), we ordered a filet medium rare (it came very well done). The bill exceeded USD 300.00
