Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in Germantown

North Italia in green hills is one of our favorite places to eat in Nashville! The truffle bread and the chicken pesto are a must try. Service is usually always great, too! I do recommend making a reservation.

Yolan was amazing! From the moment we arrived they were very accommodating. Came over and took our costs and brought my wife a hook for her pocketbook. Jake took care of us and he was so friendly and helpful. Wonderful server. Great wine list. Very extensive but almost all Italian wines. The service was top notch. And the food was delicious. My wife had the halibut and she loved it. I had the Dover sole (whole fish). It was fileted and very large. We could have shared it. All in all, one the best restaurants I’ve been to in a while.

We've dined at Il Forno several times in the past and really enjoyed every aspect of it. This trip was not quite as fantastic but was still a great evening meal. Timing was a little off food wise but our server was phenomenal. Our pizza was a bit soggy and the lamb in the ragu was slightly dry. We also got the rigatoni again and it hit the spot as always. We tried quite a few specialty drinks and all were enjoyed by the table.

We dined on an evening where there was a wedding rehearsal so obviously the staff and kitchen were behind. The restaurant is beautiful and everyone was very pleasant. It took about 20 minutes to get two glasses of wine from the bar. The food was good, steak was medium well after being ordered medium. Mushroom fettuccine was good. I would probably eat here again. For the price I think they could take quality up a notch.
