“probably the best Philly cheese steak I've ever had“

“Fantastic standard dishes as well pizza. Hot has a kick. Will be back.“

“Our party of 16 had a great time! Our server was excellent and accommodated every request! She was great! Food was good, everyone enjoyed their meal. I'm also grateful for the restaurant, they accommodated every request bc my number attending kept changing going from 11 to 13, to 15, and then to 16. Everyone I spoke with on the phone was gracious. Thanks, Amerigo, for making my celebration so special.“

“The food was incredible and service was top notch. Highly recommend if you love pizza, pasta, salads and fabulous Tiramisu!!“

“The food was delicious & service impeccable! Definitely will be back“

“I have lived in Nashville for over 20 years and this was one of the best meals I have had here! Our server, Kayla, was delightful and funny and was on top of everything. The tuna tartare was out of this world and I will be dreaming about the garlic bread and agnolotti until I go back! It’s tucked away in WeHo but it’s worth the trip.“

“Sat at the bar and had the best lunch in Nashville. Ordered “The Morty” and The club Sammy. Best service and vibe you can ask for. I highly recommend this establishment. I have been to their dinner service before and it’s just as great.“

“The staff were very friendly and the food was amazing.“

“Always have a good experience! Great food. Excellent service. Never had a bad meal😀“

“Went twice while in Nashville and both times were a delight. Great staff and the pizza was phenomenal!“

“Food is always great and Noelle is so friendly! Loved talking to her about Italy and busiate pasta!“

“Hands down the most delicious Italian food I’ve ever had. My husband and I came up from Georgia to celebrate our anniversary/Valentine’s Day, and we were welcomed with a hand-written card and impeccable service. We can’t wait to come back.“

“We’d worked hard and decided to try an Italian place we hadn’t tried before. We chose Salento Italia and what a good move! The service by Taylor was superb and the spaghetti with cauliflower was delish and my husband’s shrimp scampi was yummy too! Great place!!!“

“We had dinner here tonight. Good ambiance and excellent service. We enjoyed the fettuccini, pesto and rigatoni. ♥️“

“We came here on a Friday evening and overall had a good experience. We tried 4 different cocktails and they were all very unique and tasted great. We ordered tomato basil soup which was the best I've ever had as well as a good caesar salad. We were a little disappointed in the entrees the blackened salmon and the fettuccine alfredo. We were also disappointed that the live music was just piano. We would have loved for them to sing 40s music. The price was a little steep as well as an unexpected $40 in taxes and a 3% credit card service fee. However the service was incredible and we still had a great time.“

“Enjoyed a good lunch here. Casual and comfortable. Service was great and food was good. One of the best tasting Alfredo I have had. We did have an issue with undercooked pasta but they were quick to correct and apologized so it was handled appropriately. I would return.“

“Excellent food, wine and service. From our server to the guys working the kitchen, we had a blast and awesome meal at the pizza counter seats!!!“

“Amazing place, and amazing hosts.“

“Hands down the best all around dinner experience in Nashville. Presentation was off the charts! This was our first time visiting, they had a “Christmas Eve” menu which looked delicious but we came with our hearts set on the steak; no questions asked the kitchen was happy to adjust, we received the best steak we have tasted yet! The staff was beyond wonderful, the atmosphere was perfect. Love love loved Yolan; this will be a must have every time we visit Nashville! Thank you Yolan for the perfect Christmas Eve experience!“

“We love this Carrabba's! Our family had a delightful dinner here tonight. Steven was our waiter. He was professional and friendly. Our food was delicious and served quickly. Carrabba's cappuccino beats all others. It is my favorite way to end a meal 💕“

“Katie was our server the other night and she made it one of the best server experiences we ever had. My husband left his card at our table and she returned it to the front desk. Her honesty is refreshing and she went above and beyond to serve us the best way she could.“

“I went to Mangia last night for the first time, and it was beyond expectations! The environment and service were both 10/10, and the food was off the charts incredible. *of note: I have issues with gluten and 90% of the menu was already gluten free. The gf pasta and bread options were delicious, and I didn’t feel like the odd one out at any point (because I could eat the same dishes as everyone else with a slight modification)! The team really does make it feel like you’re at a family event. The dancing mid meal is super fun and makes finishing the rest of the meal easier lol! 12/10 ✨ and I am already thinking about when we can go back 🥰🤣“

“Great restaurant with amazing food and an unbelievable staff!“

“Friday night after a few drinks late night at some local bars and not wanting to drive far from our hotel, we ordered from here and LOVEDDDD it. Pizza was hot, fresh ingredients & we ate every single slice. To top it off they graciously added a 2 liter of sprite to our order that we didn't even order & let us use their restroom. That following Sat we decided to try something different on the menu & we still were more than happy. The small calzone was HUGE and full of ingredients but not too much. The cheesesteak hoagie was a great portion too. 4 people ate just those 2 things and we all we FULL! And again we were offered a free soda. We now all have this placed saved for our return to Nashville“

“The staff is very friendly. The food is fresh and delicious with homemade sauces. Nice, quiet atmosphere to enjoy dinner. The cheese wedges and Pepperoni pizza were fabulous!“

“The food was so delicious. There were 17 of us and everyone enjoyed their dinner. staff were amazing. thank you for a lovely evening.“

“This place is a rare find where EVERYTHING.. from the ambiance to the food is on point. The standout feature? They make their pasta from scratch, and you can absolutely taste the difference. The Chicken Parmesan is a must-try, with perfectly breaded buttermilk chicken that's tender and juicy, topped with their homemade marinara and melted mozzarella. The pasta that comes with it is, of course, made in-house and cooked to perfection. It's comfort food at its finest. Speaking of comfort food, their Mac and Cheese is hands down one of the best I've ever had. It's creamy, cheesy, and has just the right amount of crunch. You can tell it’s made with love, and the scratch-made pasta elevates it to a whole new level. And for those who crave a taste of Chicago, their Italian Beef Sandwich is a revelation. The beef is thinly sliced, piled high, and soaked in jus that’s packed with flavor. Paired with their house-made giardiniera, it’s the kind of sandwich that you’ll be dreaming about long after you’ve left. The atmosphere at Nicoletto's is cozy and inviting, with a warm, rustic vibe that makes you want to linger over your meal. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, eager to guide you through the menu or offer up a drink recommendation. In a city full of dining options, Nicoletto's stands out not just for its fresh, homemade pasta but for the love and care they put into every dish. Whether you're a pasta purist or someone who just loves good food, Nicoletto's is a place that deserves a top spot on your must-visit list. 😋“

“Sir Pizza is an Iconic Pizza with a long standing undeniable perfection…and Melissa’s has been perfecting this culinary delight for over 35 years…also the pizza/salad bar, calzones, and all kinds of other great choices🙏❤️😎“

“Food was great, staff was very friendly.“

“amazing food and service!“

“I was visiting family in Nashville and we had Cocos for dinner, I got the vigo pizza and absolutely delicious, I even ended up taking some back home.“

“The food is amazing, portions are generous, and the staff is out of this world. I was there last night, the bartender Reese really knows how to make you feel welcome and makes by far the best old fashion I’ve ever had,“

“Best part of the experience was the service. I can’t remember the gentleman’s name but he was excellent. Explained the dishes, what drinks complimented the dish and just made my wife’s and my experience so much more enjoyable. Food was great, drinks were great. Only downside to the meal was the seating plan of the restaurant. Everything felt a little bit too cramped, barely any room between tables, especially once seated I felt as though I was going to keep hitting the person sitting behind me so the staff couldn’t even pass through, they kept just trying to squeeze past which wasn’t too enjoyable. Overall though a good experience.“

“Just found this place and have eaten there twice. Food is delicious.. The outside will fool you as it’s next to a liquor store and discount beer store. The interior very clean with white table cloths and comfortable seating. My husband usually has wine with his meal. They don’t serve alcohol but said fine for folks to bring their own bottle. Family owned. Very sweet family, really good food at a reasonable price with comfortable dining . Can’t ask for anything more.“

“What an incredible hidden gem! We celebrated our 25th anniversary there tonight and I could easily go back tomorrow for another round! We had the whipped ricotta, Caesar salad, and Ophelia’s lasagna. Fantastic service, amazing ambiance. Make a reservation….you will not regret it! And the Hamlet book they bring your check in….so unique!“

“North Italia was a hit for our Christmas meal. I did not want to spend half the day in the kitchen this year and wanted convenience and a great meal. I found the family pack to go meals while searching online and it’s a excellent deal. We chose the lagsagna family pack which included a large Ceasar salad, huge loaf of garlic bread, lasagna for 4 to 6 and tiramisu. We picked it up last night to heat and seve today. Bravo North Italia. This meal was absolutely delicious and there is plenty for 2 people to have for 3 nights. At the time of our purchase it was only $65.00 plus tax. We will do this again. Thanks again to the young lady that took my order and to the Manager Zane that called to confirm my order.“

“I always get the crab cakes here; they are soooo good! Cannelloni al forno is also great. Parking out back is free if you get your tag validated at the hostess stand. Music was a little loud this last time; that's the only reason I gave 4 stars for atmosphere.“

“Food was amazing! Everything was fresh and hot. The server Savanah was amazing 💕 Definitely a great spot for a nice date night or a simple solo date. 10/10 across the board.“

“We have driven by this place on the square in Franklin for years and had never stopped in. We ate there tonight and it was incredible. I think I ate the best plate of pasta that I have ever eaten.“

“Modern and clean location. The service was great even though there was another large group. But the food was a disappointment. The minestrone soup was watery and not the usual OG consistency. And the eggplant parm was doused in sour and watery sauce. Not the usual OG standard.“

“Enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Service was excellent.“

“We ordered a pie last night for delivery to our hotel room. It was one of the best cheese pizzas I had in a while, and delivered so quickly (less than 20 minutes) no complaints at all and we will order again next time we are in town.“

“My wife and I celebrated our 24th anniversary with dinner at Cork & Cow. Everything, EVERYTHING was absolutely perfect. Our reservation was for 9pm. We walked in at 8:45 and were seated immediately. Mike, our server, was quick to greet us and made excellent suggestions. I already knew I wanted the bone-in ribeye, but I wasn't settled on an appetizer. Mike suggested the pork belly: ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. My wife ordered the filet. Both steaks were well-seasoned and cooked perfectly. Dessert didn't seem likely, since I was starting to feel full, but I overheard another server mention a chocolate torte that had peanut butter mousse, so. . . O. M. G. As if the food and service weren't good enough, we were back in our hotel room by 9:45.“

“My ubereats order got messed up. Amico's made it work...on their own--and everything was still fresh and warm when it arrived late, outside of their control...and them adding in delivery just to be kind. They went above and beyond AND the food was great, as usual. Definitely go support them! The food is always great. 👌Service is clearly just as good.“
