    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!

    First time experience was pretty good. The food came out when it was ready which is a whole different concept because you could be eating your meat dish before your appetizer dish. That was interesting. The food was very good in taste. Each serving was enough for two. You have to pay for water, seven dollars either Stillwater or sparkling. I have not seen that in a while, although it’s a common practice in Europe. I ordered an Aperol Spritz which is normally eight to $10 and any other restaurant I have gone to in Nashville, it was $16 there and it wasn’t even a large serving and was filled with ice. So those are the two things that I was not satisfied with. The noise level is very loud and you’re sitting very close to other diners. We went at 5 o’clock when they opened and the entire place was filled within 20 minutes. It was pretty loud and both patrons on each side of us heard our conversation and we heard their conversation so that was a little uncomfortable-it was like sitting at the bar to eat dinner. I would possibly return, I just would not order drinks. Overall, the food was reasonably priced. I would give it an average of three out of five.
