This restaurant closed for good the last week of August due to rent increases. It would have been nice to have been informed by open table. Fortunately we figure it out because we called to try to make an earlier reservation. It’s a pity. Had been looking forward to the meal!!

Our large group was accommodated easily, the food was tasty and the wait staff efficient. The one annoyance, several listed wines were not available, and we gathered early on a Saturday evening.

The food was delicious. Recommend the cauliflower for sure. Additionally they did a good job with some handcrafted drinks as well.

This was a decent experience. The food was good but nothing spectacular. I did get dripped on by the air-conditioner as in other reviews. The wine list also had several wines no longer available on it – as a matter fact most were no longer available. The service was great though! It just wasn’t a great enough experience overall to warrant returning.

I read reviews of this place and it seemed like a good choice for a casual meal with a co-worker. It was close to the hotel and convenient. It was almost completely empty at 6:30 and now I know why. While the service is cheerful and a little over - attentive the food is really below average to bad. The menu is small for a tapas place and most of the four dishes we ordered were disappointing. The kale salad is small and boring, the scallops were raw on the bottom, and the Korean ribs were dry with a gloopy overly sweet sauce. The only thing worth eating was the brocclini and even it was over-sauced. Do yourself a favor and find something cheaper and worth eating elsewhere.

This was a place I would come to Nashville just to eat there and drive 4 hours home. I can’t stop thinking about how delicious it was.
