Best Cozy Restaurants in Goodlettsville

Ask for Alex, he is a thoughtful, fun and kind server. We love that this place is in our neighborhood and we love the food, drinks and wine.

What an amazing experience! This was our first time at the Authentique and we will definitely be back! The food was delicious, genuine French cuisine. They had the best crepes I’ve had in years! The wine selection was great and the service was friendly. I highly recommend this place, they even had live jazz music! A tout a l’heure, Authentique!

Had such a great dinner here with husband and daughters 21 & 23. Everyone loved the food and the vibe. Our server, Kensington, was super knowledgeable on the menu which helped greatly. Friendly and cool with really flavorful food! Huge win 😃

Greeted at the door by the chef, my wife and I were whisked away (cooking pun there…) to the back room of the restaurant. There we were seated and greeted by an attractive server and had our special menu explained to us. We had the choice of escargots, a brief interlude of boeuf bourguignon, and I had the steak frites while my wife enjoyed the confit of duck. We were finished off with a traditional cheese plate with a variety of cheeses from around Europe. All the food items were fabulous and the wine pairings were perfect! I will complain that the portions were oversized for me. We were nearly full from the escargots, and the boeuf was a full dinner portion in itself. The ribeye steak was as the chef explains it “what Americans expect”. I can’t fault him for giving his customers what they want, although I personally would prefer a more authentic experience with a smaller skirt or flank steak and about half the amount of fries. To summarize: go there. Eat. You will not regret a thing!

Excellent food! Excellent service!. Alex was outstanding. Great family meal. Very enjoyable. Not loud. Easy to relax, talk and enjoy. Will return!
