Hidden gem! Loved our experience here. The ambiance was great. Diverse wine selections, authentic Italian dishes, and awesome service. Best octopus I’ve had in Nashville. The mushroom pasta dish was also DELISH. Also got the butterscotch custard for dessert — not usually a butterscotch fan but this was lovely. Our server, Madeline, was outstanding and provided a very warm space for us to enjoy our evening. Will most definitely be back!!

Looking for Italian and found Salento.
What an amazing experience brought by excellent customer service by I believe Danielle. She really connects with the customer. I don’t usually start a review like this, but you could see how she connected with each table and wanted everyone to have a great time. 20/10 Customer Service.
My fabulous wife started with a Forbidden Sour drink and it was really good.
She also got the Bruschetta: Garlic Rubbed Focaccia, Burrata, Cherry Tomato, Basil & Arugula Pesto, and Balsamic Pearls. She said it was delicious.
We both choose the Cast Iron Lasagna: Bolognese, Ricotta, Mozzarella, and Basil. Pure delicious comfort food. Hot and bubbly beautiful and so tasty. Very Satisfying.
Excellent Ambiance and would definitely return. Fabulous Service.

Super nice decor. Excellent staff. Food was AMAZING! We got the Margherita pizza to start. I got the spaghetti and meatballs and my Daughter got the spaghetti and roasted cauliflower. It was more than we could eat in one sitting so we had plenty for lunch the next day! Our Server Haleigh was Awesome!

Dinner here 2 nights in a raw
This place is very good is very close to authentic Italian restaurant.
The best you can get are
arethe Octopos with beams
And the Rigatoni with Sausage this is absolutely awesome I really like it so much .
If I have to say something is missing is some pasta with good seafood and Pasta with clams ... and some bread they should take to you ...
The service is kind of too slow
The location is very nice

The servers were great. Although the hostess brought out our appetizer, she was very carless. She placed the appetizer on top of menus and there wasn’t much communication from her to move anything. Additionally when we checked in the hostess began clacking her nails on the counter as I told her my name. As a restaurant that is trying to portray a fine dining Italian restaurant, this is not the first person I would put as the face of the restaurant.
Otherwise, the food was okay. Antipasto was great and the meats/cheeses were a great variety. The chicken parm was dry and the pasta did not really have much sauce on it. When we asked for Parmesan cheese, it came out in small portions and was not freshly grated which was very disappointing for an Italian restaurant. The drinks were good, go with the Italian margarita over the devil’s margarita; wine in a margarita is terrible. The risotto was delicious.

My husband and I visited this restaurant last night. It superseded our expectations. The shrimp polenta was so good I came back today for more. Our entrees were delicious and the service and atmosphere were also very pleasing.
