Mangia Nashville

“Every Friday and Saturday for 15 years they have been putting on a reservation only Italian feast and we have been meaning to go for a long time. Well we finally went and absolutely totally worth it. The energy and love you feel dining and enjoying the atmosphere they create is unique here in Nashville. The food itself is great. Our menu for winter started with the perfect bite of polenta and shrimp, crisp fried risotto, and a crisp ceaser. Then a break for some song and dance. After that an umami packed mushroom pasta and a rich savory tomato and braised short rib with shells. Then more dancing! The whole restaurant patrons servers all up and moving! Your heart rate gets up but what a blast. We finished with some of the best chicken I've had a very long time and a nice pork loin. Dessert was espresso and a perfect chocolate pannacotta. Add in a really good wine list and solid cocktail program and this was a perfect night. Absolutely book your night. We will be back!”

“Amazing experience all around. Chef Nick takes care of his guests, the servers are great, and by the end of the evening, after the dance interlude, everyone feels like family. We had the Winter menu, and my favorite dishes were the black carbon focaccia, the pasta with porcini cognac cream, and the rosemary lemon chicken.... but everything was good! They also had gluten-free versions of everything. It was nice to have a prix fixe menu to take away decision making and just enjoy dishes as they arrived.”

“Went with a party of 8 to celebrate a couple of birthdays. It was incredible! Victoria was an attentive server, the food was fantastic and the atmosphere was tons of fun. Highly recommend! Also - it is a set 10-course menu and served family style. However, one of the ppl in our party is vegetarian and they didnt miss a beat making sure she was served her plate any time they brought food to the table.”

“Wowwwww 🤩 absolutely outstanding Italian feast they put on for Friday and Saturday nights is amazing. I’m definitely putting this on my rotation for my Nashville trips. I can’t say enough great things about the food and the atmosphere/environment. If you know anything about an Italian feast you know it’s filled with good vibes, music and a full belly. Trust me when I say you will leave here stuffed and with great memories. The owner is part of the experience and I love that so much. Don’t miss this, 💯 worth it”

“What an AMAZING dinner experience! 10 course meal over three hours. Every course was delicious and excited my taste buds. I was able to get my courses gluten-free, and my husband got to enjoy his gluten. Dance break to make room for more food was so much fun. Definitely would recommend it if you have never been. Can't wait for the seasonal menu change so I can go back.”
