Best Romantic Restaurants in East Nashville

We had a great meal at Pelato. The vibe was definitely a New York state of mind and the food rivaled many of the great NYC pasta houses. Our waitress was outstanding explaining the menu and offering suggestions. On Sunday's they make Sunday sauce and next time I go on a Sunday I will definitely order it for the table. Since this was our first time, we opted to each order a pasta dish to try and all were delicious. The meatballs and arancini were equally great. The wine list was little limited but what they offered was fairly priced - just remember your id as they will ask everyone at the table to prove they are old enough to legally imbibe. Make your reservations now and you will thank me later!

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!

The night was absolutely wonderful. We had a great server, delicious drinks (if they have the Black Magic when you go, GET it), wonderful food (the rack of lamb? to die for), and as always, the magic was top-notch. My date had never seen close-up magic in person before, so that was exceptionally fun! The ambience is romantic and cool. The dress code makes certain no one feels over or under dressed (which can make some people feel awkward about themselves, so that’s a big thumbs up from me). Overall it was, and don’t pardon my pun, a magical night and a fun experience.

Yolan was amazing! From the moment we arrived they were very accommodating. Came over and took our costs and brought my wife a hook for her pocketbook. Jake took care of us and he was so friendly and helpful. Wonderful server. Great wine list. Very extensive but almost all Italian wines. The service was top notch. And the food was delicious. My wife had the halibut and she loved it. I had the Dover sole (whole fish). It was fileted and very large. We could have shared it. All in all, one the best restaurants I’ve been to in a while.

Great, except for all of the wasps. They were outside and INSIDE the restaurant which made for an uncomfortable dining situation.
