About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for fine wines
  • Fancy
Voted the No. 1 Restaurant in the U.S. by Food + Wine readers, Yolan is an authentic experience of Italian cuisine done right, located at The Joseph Nashville. A true love letter to Italy, Yolan pays homage to the Pizzuti family's heritage and Joseph's wife, Yolanda.

Perfect for dining family style, the a la carte menu features signature dishes paired with seasonal highlights, complemented by breads and dolci by our talented pastry team.

Nashville's only Forbes Travel Guide Star Award restaurant and recipient of Wine Spectator's Best of Award of Excellence, Yolan features an extensive wine list of Italian varietals and producers, as well as world-renowned regions and makers.

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: Nashville’s only Forbes Star Award-winning restaurant, Yolan goes all-in on Italian fine dining—think exquisite pastas, a 55-day dry-aged strip steak, and white truffle supplements. Exceptional service, a standout Italian-leaning wine list, and stellar desserts from pastry chef and 2023 James Beard semifinalist Noelle Marchetti make this swanky spot inside The Joseph Nashville hotel the ultimate dining destination.

    The experience was “fine” but we won’t be rushing back. House-provided sparkling water was flat (so we ordered the San Pelligrino af a cost). Our pasta came while we were still eating our appetizer. Then there was a long wait to the entree. Waiter seemed a bit lost/overwhelmed. Food was good but the experience missed the mark.

    Overall we enjoyed our meal at Yolan. Having not dined here before we were a bit nervous given some recent reviews on google but we stuck with our plans and were happy with that decision! All of the food arrived to the table hot and with explanations of each dish. The pasta dishes did cool off quickly, bur we can’t hold that against the kitchen. The lobster risotto was my personal favorite and my partner’s was the duck dish. The only course we didn’t like was the bread service as the bread texture was a bit gummy. We skipped dessert as nothing really appealed to us. Our server made herself present a reasonable amount, but I wouldn’t describe her as the most friendly server I’ve ever had. Restaurant ambiance was confusing, decor and furniture choices didn’t feel like a restaurant and definitely felt like you were in a hotel.

    Lovely staff, great waitress. The mercato was the best salad my bestfriend and I have had—not exaggerating. Our waitress suggested the white wine we had which was also great. The main dish themselves weren’t worth the price and extremely small servings. I got the risotto and my bestfriend got the seafood spaghetti—we’ve both had better. Overall, it was a nice place but main dishes need to improve to match the price point.
