Restaurants near Embassy Suites Nashville - at Vanderbilt

An old school Nashville vibe with really good food and laid back, but, attentive service. One of the best Italian menus in town. Definitely a place worth visiting. In Nashville's changing and growing restaurant landscape, this is a place you will put on your top 5-10 list for regular nights out.

We choose Gathre for the ambiance and good food, and it didn’t disappoint - mostly. The charcuterie tray felt lacking with only four tiny (not much bigger than a crouton) pieces of bread, a few slices of cured meats, and a few pieces of cheese. It also included artichoke hearts which I have never had on a charcuterie tray and while I don’t mind them, wouldn’t want them included on one in the future. We both loved our entrees (fettuccine and the heritage chicken) and our desserts (pots de crem and the lemon tiramisu). It’s a little pretentious to only have bottled water available, but we would still come again.

Amazing like always :D Super good service and didnt take long to get our food even on valentines day! the chicken was a little tough but was still sooo good

Music City stalwart with a menu of intriguing plates, combinations, seasoning, service and presentation. Midtown also respects, protects and burnishes the legacy of beloved and indefatigable raconteur Randy Rayburn. The staff is cordial, attentive, and responsive and it leaves you with the impression they are one big family. Kristine was fantastic this morning and emblematic of all who seat and serve you. I consider Midtown Cafe to be a convenient and terrific setting for a family occasion, to sit alone and dine at the bar, or to conduct a business meeting. I have done this often. Randy's greeting was always, "Welcome to our home." He meant it. Midtown continues to feel like home and there's a reason Nashville boasts The Randy Rayburn School of Culinary Arts at Nashville State. Special man, special commitment to pleasing his guests, and what impact he had on the community. For me, there's a magnetic pull to return. I do not resist it.

We love Valentino's and this is the second year in a row that we celebrated my mother's birthday there. They never disappoint. Food is amazing and Mike, our waiter, was absolutely wonderful. If you are looking for REAL ITALIAN food in Nashville, this is your spot. Thanks for making this event so great!
