    Made reservations for a nice dinner while walking back to hotel. We saw the menu on the window and decided to give it a try. It was amazing! We ordered the center cut steak which was cooked medium rare and cooked to perfection. We also ordered the chicken carbonara and it did not disappoint! I highly recommend this place! We also saw other food come out and it all looked very good! Give this place a try!

    Greeted by friendly staff upon arrival. Our server was excellent and suggested a couple of items off the menu. I had the Carne Asada tacos and the Shrimp tacos with corn tortillas, absolutely delicious! Food was fresh and flavorful. On the value side it was a little more than your average Mexican restaurant, but it’s Downtown Nashville so that was to be expected. Blanco’s service, food and atmosphere make it worth the extra cost!

    We love the food at 615Chutney--it's well-prepared and delicious. Our issue (as non-20-something adults) is the 'order your food and drinks on your phone' system that makes the ordering process more complicated for the diners. While our server, Mohamed, was a gem and assisted us, we found out too late that we could still request a printed menu and either submit our orders online or through our server. (The website is not helpful for parties who want to order as a group and try a variety of items, or compare one menu item to another, since it only displays one or two at a time on a phone screen.)
