Hidden gem just across and steps down from Bridgestone Arena. The food and service is exceptional and the feel is warm and cozy. If you happen to be at or near Bridgestone, and are looking to step out of the hustle and bustle for a great meal experience, make this your dinner go-to.

When we attend the symphony, we often choose to eat at Trattoria. Once again, we had an amazing experience. Everything is fresh and flavorful. My wife had the lasagna and it was fantastic! I went with the Gnocchi Bolognese and it was delicious and a huge portion. Our service experience was top notch. Consistently delightful and we will be back soon.

I brought my daughter to Nashville for her 14th birthday! Her Dad, my husband passed a way unexpectedly a year and a half ago. We have had the most amazing trip here. This was our last dinner here we leave tomorrow. (I am a chef) We have been eating our way through Nashville lol! The food has been the best part from Hattie B.’s Chicken 🐔 to the Dumpling 🥟 House to Velvet Taco 🌮! I wanted to share how our delicious dinner at Trattoria was a pivotal moment for me. I was able to see my beautiful beloved daughter for the first time all dressed up and talk about life together. She was spoiled by your staff who went above and beyond to make sure she felt special. I was able to watch her every reaction to each bite and discuss the ingredients and technique of their creativity. I was not rushing our time for once but finally living in the present moment. The week my husband passed away my restaurant burned to the ground. I thought our lives had been completely destroyed, but God! Our hope is back and we will have more blessed memories. Thank you for being part of this journey and for the most delicious and uplifting dining experience to date! God bless you all! È eccezionale!
