    A great place with a comfortable atmosphere. It felt very private, but fun and alive at the same time. The wine was amazing and everything that my wife and I had to eat was great. Strongly recommend The Athentique to anyone looking for good wine and food!

    Our server was excellent and spoke impeccable French. He was very attentive. The food was delicious! We loved the meat charcuterie board and wine flights. The ambience is that of a French cafe in Paris. Who knew it was in this space on Main Street and what delights were inside!

    Great little Parisian wine bar owned and operated by a husband & wife. If you’re a wine enthusiast, Authentique is for you. Offering a charming ambiance with a carefully selected wine list with a few bottles you’re not going to find anywhere else in Nashville, including one of Napoleon Bonaparte’s favorites. The service was fabulous & welcoming. Great place to enjoy an intimate glass of wine with that special person in your life, or a place to meet and converse with other wine enthusiasts. I will be going back!

    Hey Sean! We are happy to provide a great fine wine experience in Nashville - feedback like this keeps us moving. Thank you for the great review and see you soon!
