Best Date Night Restaurants in East Nashville

Our overall experience of The Treehouse was spectacular. Our server was super accommodating and went out of her way to ensure we had a great experience. The food was hands down one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. I would highly recommend this restaurant for anyone willing to step outside of their comfort zone.

Everything was fabulous! The raw oysters, the green curry oysters (my fav), the red snapper crudo, the crab cakes and mimosas! If you haven’t been here, you need to try it! Service was excellent, our server Abbey was fantastic! We will definitely be back!!

We were super excited to get a reservation at Noko because our friends (who are serious foodies and excellent home chefs) recommended Noko as their favorite restaurant. Noko did not disappoint! The welcome as we entered was warm and generous, they took my coat and hung it for me. : ) we had a small table in the dining room that was reserved, but opted to sit at the bar! It was fantastic! Our bartender Jena was super knowledgeable and so kind. She had many diners at the bar and took great care to engage with everyone. We started with sake and beer, a very interesting sake selection, and had spicy tuna crispy rice & hamachi crudo to start both so flavorful and delicious, then moved on with burnt ends with lettuce both of us LOVED this dish and really enjoyed the delicate crab fried rice! We had the Caesar salad which we shared but could have had my own it was so tasty! Our meal was so delightful we didn’t save room for dessert! We might try to go back tonight for dessert to try the coconut cake with wood fired pineapple or the brookie with Chocolate brownie, black sesame cookie, miso caramel, vanilla gelato! Our only missed opportunity due to dining so late is we missed the dumplings!! No doubt they are as fantastic as all the dishes we tried! Make a reservation ASAP, the food, drinks and staff are⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Might I add that we went to a distillery recommended by Jenna and ran into another couple that was seated at the bar too!! Great recommendation, thank you Jenna! You nailed it!

Wife and I traveled to celebrate her birthday, and I decided to make reservations at Peninsula. Let me say I am glad I chose this place! Excellent service from the hostess and our waiter. we ordered 5 dishes to try, and everything was fresh and exciting. Intimate feeling within the restaurant itself with limited seating. Seemed all the waiters were busy checking on guests and taking care of everyone, nobody sitting on their phones. They explained every dish as they brought it out. They arrived quite quickly as well. We did not have to worry about anything. 100% recommend this experience and we will definitely be back at some point!

The most sophisticated fine-dining experience in Nashville! Outstanding food deeply connected to Italian tradition, brilliant presentation, absolutely top-tier service. Not inexpensive, but the best never is.
