Voted the No. 1 Restaurant in the U.S. by Food + Wine readers, Yolan is an authentic experience of Italian cuisine done right, located at The Joseph Nashville. A true love letter to Italy, Yolan pays homage to the Pizzuti family's heritage and Joseph's wife, Yolanda.

Perfect for dining family style, the a la carte menu features signature dishes paired with seasonal highlights, complemented by breads and dolci by our talented pastry team.

Nashville's only Forbes Travel Guide Star Award restaurant and recipient of Wine Spectator's Best of Award of Excellence, Yolan features an extensive wine list of Italian varietals and producers, as well as world-renowned regions and makers.

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: Nashville’s only Forbes Star Award-winning restaurant, Yolan goes all-in on Italian fine dining—think exquisite pastas, a 55-day dry-aged strip steak, and white truffle supplements. Exceptional service, a standout Italian-leaning wine list, and stellar desserts from pastry chef and 2023 James Beard semifinalist Noelle Marchetti make this swanky spot inside The Joseph Nashville hotel the ultimate dining destination.

    Restaurant did not disappoint. And while the food was great the service was phenomenal. Everyone we interacted with was personable, knowledgeable, engaged and attentive. A great deal of the credit is undoubtably due to leadership of the Manager Dauphine. Yolan is as much about the experience as the food.

    definitely an upscale restaurant with excellent service and presentation. Waiter was friendly and informative. Some of the food was a bit on the salty side (common issue in the south). The pasta is made in house and very good. The prices were high for some of the dishes. I don't think I've ever seen gnocchi for $75.I was charged $50 for a glass of wine that I wasn't anticipating, due to asking for a different wine recommendation to sample but not realizing the price difference. It might have been nice to have been informed of the price of the server-recommended wine choice. those things aside it was one of our better dining experiences in Nashville.

    Thanks for the feedback, Chris! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your experience at Yolan. We're glad our service and presentation met your expectations.

    The food was delicious & the service was incredible! It’s unlike any restaurant i’ve ever been to. It’s definitely on the pricier side but worth every penny. If I could recommend one thing, you HAVE to get the sourdough focaccia!

    We had received a gift card to go to this restaurant and we were very much looking forward to it. However, the food was a huge disappointment. I had a bowl of pasta which was not tasty at all - just pasta, pepper and cheese. My husband had a sea bass for $48 which was bland. We ordered the fried olives which were not good at all. While the waitress was lovely and the ambience typical Nashville Hotel - we won't be going back. Much disappointed.

    Good evening Alison. We're sorry to hear that your experience at Yolan didn't meet your expectations. We take pride in our food and it's disappointing to hear that our pasta and sea bass didn't hit the mark for you and your husband. We appreciate your kind words about our service and ambiance. We hope you'll give us another chance in the future to provide you with the experience you were looking forward to. Best regards, The Management Team
