Sat at the bar and Jeremy took amazing care of us! Such a cozy vibe and food was amazing. Had the shrimp appetizer, gnocchi and short rib, and finished off with delicious olive oil cake. Cocktails were 10/10, great recommendations by Jermey as well!
Absolutely Phenomenal Experience & Impeccable Service! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My family recently reserved the entire upstairs area of Salento Italia for our daughter Anna and son-in-law Joel's rehearsal dinner, and the experience was truly five-star from start to finish. The ambiance and atmosphere were excellent, creating the perfect setting for a celebration. The meal was incredible, starting with an amazing flow of appetizers: delicious olive tapenade bread, a crisp Caesar salad, and flavorful margherita pizza—they truly kept bringing out more! For the main course, I enjoyed the Chicken Marsala served over a bed of mashed potatoes and asparagus. It was absolutely phenomenal. Following that, a generous medley of desserts was served, but we were all so happily stuffed, it was nearly impossible to try them all! While the food and setting were superb, the highlight of the evening was the impeccable service we received from our servers, Danielle and Jake. They tirelessly managed our large party of 35 people. Not only were they attentive and efficient, but they also engaged us in warm, genuine conversation. By the end of the evening, we truly felt as if we were parting with old friends. Salento Italia is a marvelous restaurant, and we highly recommend it for both intimate dinners and large events. We will certainly be back in Nashville this December and are already looking forward to our return!
I have dined here 3 times and all experiences have been 10/10. Danielle has been my server the last 2 visits and I don’t think I’d have quite as a wonderful experience if it weren’t for her! Short rib & gnocchi as ABSOLUTELY amazing!!
We went to Salento Italia for my sister’s rehearsal dinner, and it was absolutely perfect. The servers, especially Danielle and Jason, were phenomenal — so attentive, personable, and genuinely made the evening feel special. The food and drinks were outstanding, and the service was truly top-notch. It was the perfect setting for such a meaningful night. 10/10, highly recommend!
Celebrated with family here today. I had chicken Parmesan. Family ate Pappardelle Bolognese, Solento steak frites, and Gnocchi and short ribs. For appetizers we had beef carpaccio and Arancini. The waiter was personable and provided suggestions and answered questions about the menu. Really enjoyed the meal.
