Meilleurs restaurants authentiques à South Nashville

We've dined at Il Forno several times in the past and really enjoyed every aspect of it. This trip was not quite as fantastic but was still a great evening meal. Timing was a little off food wise but our server was phenomenal. Our pizza was a bit soggy and the lamb in the ragu was slightly dry. We also got the rigatoni again and it hit the spot as always. We tried quite a few specialty drinks and all were enjoyed by the table.

I absolutely adore this spot! Definitely an underrated place for dinner. The food is fantastic, the sharing experience is collaborative sparking conversation, the interior is intimate and cozy, and the service is kind and helpful. The Christmas decorations really added a cozy and wonderful aspect to the entire dinner. This is not my first time as it is hard to not want to come back. My favorite dishes are the croquettes, garlic bread and the radiatori vodka. 10/10! My one slight disappointment would be in the inability to split the check. Otherwise fantastic!

Happy hour was an excellent deal - $5 glasses of sangria or house red/white wine. The house red on HH was delicious and the sangria was great! (Waiter upsold me to add Brandy which was unexpectedly another $10+ to the $5 sangria - really that is the only negative I can say about this place). I have celiac and they have an extensive GF menu that my friend and I both ordered off of so we could share. Best thing we got was probably the goat cheese stuffed peppers and the mushroom flatbread. Absolutely delicious! Excited to go back!

Our server was soooo nice, friendly and awesome. Food is always yummy. Been coming here since they opened and never disappoints. A fav for sure.

This is one of our favorite places to go to. We have been there with friends who have never been to France and we assure them just how authentic it feels. I would highly recommend Once Upon a Time in France to anyone wanting to experience great French cuisine with a staff that is friendly, informative, and appreciative.
