    The food and service was great! I showed up a little too early (prior to the restaurant opening) and one of the sweet managers allowed me to wait inside because it was ridiculously cold outside. We sat at the chef's counter and the chef sent over multiple extra dishes for us to sample. We chatted with him near the end of our meal about the new menu coming and you could tell he really takes pride in work. Great place!

    Enjoyed the Peloached Pear. Australian Wagyu was delicious and totally worth the price difference from the filet (which my daughter got so we could compare). Brussel sprouts were phenomenal. Chocolate cake isn't too sweet / rich; a good balance. Definitely want to come back to try more items. Cocktails looked great. Music was nice, and the service was great as well.

    Greeted at the door by the chef, my wife and I were whisked away (cooking pun there…) to the back room of the restaurant. There we were seated and greeted by an attractive server and had our special menu explained to us. We had the choice of escargots, a brief interlude of boeuf bourguignon, and I had the steak frites while my wife enjoyed the confit of duck. We were finished off with a traditional cheese plate with a variety of cheeses from around Europe. All the food items were fabulous and the wine pairings were perfect! I will complain that the portions were oversized for me. We were nearly full from the escargots, and the boeuf was a full dinner portion in itself. The ribeye steak was as the chef explains it “what Americans expect”. I can’t fault him for giving his customers what they want, although I personally would prefer a more authentic experience with a smaller skirt or flank steak and about half the amount of fries. To summarize: go there. Eat. You will not regret a thing!

    This gem tucked away from downtown Nashville was SO GOOD. Our waitress was fantastic and had such a good sense of humor. The Christmas decorations were so cute. My husband and I are were visiting from Illinois and we can’t wait to come back and do a little bowling!
