Best Cosy Restaurants in Old Hickory / Hermitage

This was a really cool experience. The jazz music and singing provided a great environment. The scallops were amazing! The housemade blue cheese was great with the wedge salad. The chicken was dry unfortunately, but our overall experience was great. We will have to check out the burlesque show next time!

Gardenia was our server and she was amazing! Food was delicious for everyone at our table!

The ambiance was cozy and friendly; we started with the escargot and French onion soup, which were better than most; we had the duck confit and trout, both of which were cooked to perfection; the cocktails were delicious; the wine menu had many price points; the crème brûlée was served perfect temperature and was so good! We will return as our experience was superb!

Our family group of four ate here for the first time while celebrating my mother's 91st birthday. The food and service were superb. Our dinner choices included Pelato Salad, Panelle, Radiatori Vodka, Chicken Parmigiana, Creamy Spinach, Polenta Bolognese, Roasted Mushrooms and Chicken Saltimbocca. My wife requires gluten-free options and the menu was very clear about that, although it was easy to lose track of those choices after the dishes arrived. Our server, Cayli, was outstanding in every way. She manages to be both friendly and effective - a real professional. Both the manager and owner visited our table; a nice touch. Highly recommended.

What an amazing experience! This was our first time at the Authentique and we will definitely be back! The food was delicious, genuine French cuisine. They had the best crepes I’ve had in years! The wine selection was great and the service was friendly. I highly recommend this place, they even had live jazz music! A tout a l’heure, Authentique!
