We loved the international night of cuisine featuring foods of the Basque region (Spain and France). Each course was introduced by the chef, along with explanations of the ingredients, flavors, and preparation. Such variety and wonderful flavors in every one of the five courses. It was absolutely perfect! Can’t wait to go back!

Oh my goodness!! This place, this place! The food was amazing! Seasoned to perfection and every bite let us wanting more. We don’t normally do dessert, but when you serve peach cobbler cheesecake and homemade bread pudding….we had to indulge ourselves and I’m glad we did! The salad bar!

The salad was excellent. The pork tenderloin was good but was served on such a cold plate that it was slightly chilled when I took the first bite. The restaurant was cold enough that my wife needed to put a jacket on at one point.

Amazing food and great service. It’s BYOB - we brought a bottle of wine. Steaks were perfectly cooked and we loved the Mediterranean salad bar.

What a quaint restaurant. From the time we walked in till we left, the quality of service, food and atmosphere were excellent. So, peaceful and lovely sitting outside by the garden. We went for Sunday brunch. The portions are very nice and the buffets were lovely.Highly recommend. Prices very fair for the quality and portions.

Came here with my mother to celebrate mother’s day, and it was absolutely fantastic as usual. We had the Lombardy, the San Marino, the Carnard A La Marseille, and finished off with the yuzu cheesecake. The meal could not have been more perfect, and we will definitely be back! Just remember, they are BYOB!
Excellent and sophisticated restaurant.Highly recommend a reservation.They don't serve alcohol, but you can bring your own.I got the chef's special, which was excellent.We had a reservation for 15 people, and our server. Joe was excellent.We did have one person in our group that is always particular and has been known to send their food back to be remade multiple times. They made a special request and were pleased with it and surprisingly did not have anything sent back!They have gluten-free dessert options.One thing I would like to point out is that the cobbler does have strawberries in it so if you have a strawberry allergy I would avoid that. It wasn't specifically stated on the menu but we did inquire about it someone at our table had a severe allergy. When we were told that it did have strawberries in it, we encouraged them to update the menu so that people are aware.
Wheelchair accessibility: If there is a sign that says wheelchair accessible entrance this way, however, it leads to stairs.No one in my group was in a wheelchair but having friends who are in wheelchairs, I would say that this would not be considered very wheelchair accessible.The lot is gravel and there is a step to get down to the tables where you eat.

What a great little secret in this beautiful part of TN. The place has an eclectic charm, the owner and staff are friendly and welcoming. The night we had dinner they offered and antipasto bar that was fresh and phenomenal. The menu had several upscale options at good prices. My wife ordered the seafood special and I ordered the Rancher special that came with several cuts of meats. Both did not disappoint. We finished our evening with Limoncello Mascarpone cake. It is BYOB restaurant so bring your own bottle of wine. Highly recommend La Bella Pearl’s.
