Nashville’s best wine bar. High quality wine and crepes from amazing and kind owners who care about the quality of their products and their customers’ experience. Don’t skip the Parisian crepe!

We had the BEST time at the French wine tasting! Alex was so great - his knowledge and passion for French wines is palpable. Perhaps the first tasting I’ve ever been to where I’ve genuinely loved every wine that I tasted. Can’t wait to return :)

I have never been to a place that has such care and mindfulness. They make sure every dish is made to perfection and you can tell how authentic it is ( lives up to its name). Our server was a actaully from France and talked to us a little bit about her experince and care for this restaurant and food. All I got was the charcuterie board but that was the best charcuterie board I have had in my life. A blend of fresh cheeses and cured meats with a great selection of sides. I cant recommend this place enough, Service 10/10, atmosphere ( had some live music that was great background music) 10/10, food 10/10 (from what we tried. An absolute gem in east nashville. Overall score: 4.8/5

I have been to the Authentique for wine flights and snacks, and I’ve booked their wine tastings. I am always impressed with the menu and the incredible hospitality. I would recommend this spot whether you love wine or are new to wine and are looking for direction.

A truly remarkable experience. Alex is incredible and so knowledgeable. The wine and food are both great! Great location for small plates, a romantic dinner, business meeting or just to try one of their wine tastings or Jazz nights.

The Authentique is an amazing spot if you’re looking for great wines & great knowledge about them. We’ve come twice this week and have had the best experience both times, so worth the visit!

Stepping into this French restaurant was like being transported straight to Paris! The ambiance was simply delightful, authentically French with charming decor and a cozy, inviting atmosphere. The addition of live music truly elevated the experience, providing the perfect soundtrack to our evening.
We started with the wine flight, which was an excellent choice, allowing us to sample a wonderful selection of both white and red wines – each one a fantastic representation. For our meal, the crepes were absolutely excellent, perfectly prepared and bursting with flavor. The charcuterie board was another highlight; it was incredibly well-curated, and the bread that accompanied it was exceptionally good, making every bite a pleasure.
What truly made our night special was the outstanding customer experience, particularly thanks to Alex. He was wonderfully engaging and even entertained us, giving us the perfect opportunity to practice our French! It added such a unique and personal touch to our dinner.
Overall, this restaurant offers a fantastic culinary journey with an authentic feel and exceptional service. Highly recommended for a memorable French dining experience!

Great place. We went for a wine tasting twice now. The sommelier was extremely knowledgeable on European wines, that paired nicely with a plate of charcuterie. They also make real authentic crepes.

Great wine experience! My wife and I had a flight of French wines that we’ve never previously tried. They were great! Owner was very friendly and explained all the nuances of the wines. Will definitely make this a priority every time we come to town.
