This was the PERFECT date night. Our food was spectacular. HIGHLY reccomend the toto- the whisky smoked soy sauce it comes with it is to die for. The shoshitos were also a table favorite. Our waiter, Andrew M, made our experience all the more memorable with special reccomendations based on our tastes and kept our drinks flowing, our bellies full and our hearts laughing! Thank you Andrew for making our evening so wonderful, truly the best waiter I’ve had in a long time.

Virago in Nashville delivered an exceptional dining experience from the moment we arrived. Connor, our bartender, was outstanding, genuinely attentive, personable, and willing to go above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. His service alone would bring me back. The sushi was excellent, fresh, and expertly prepared. Every dish we tried was impressive, and the atmosphere matched the quality of the food, stylish, energetic, and truly top notch. What stood out even more was the leadership on the floor. The manager was hands-on in the best way, personally helping us switch tables and even cleaning one himself so we could be seated faster. That level of care is rare. Overall, Virago exceeded expectations in every category. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great sushi, great service, and an all-around amazing experience.

I came with my mom to celebrate my recent college graduation, and we absolutely loved it!! Our server, Kristen, was super sweet, friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. She went above and beyond, and it made our experience the best. She also recommended several dishes, which we ordered, and all of them were delicious! The spicy tuna crispy rice was perfect, especially with the pop rocks. The sushi tasted fresh, and the truffle + caviar nigirizushi was melt-in-your-mouth delicious! My mom got the Korean pork belly bao buns, and she loved it! The pork belly was crispy, and the buns were soft and fluffy. I’m actually still dreaming about the miso brookie; it was fudgy and had the perfect amount of richness, saltiness, and sweetness. The restaurant itself was very nice, and the lighting was perfect (not too bright, not too dark). The music wasn’t overly loud either, and the seating was comfortable. Overall, Virago was 100% worth it, and it’s definitely one of my new favorite spots!
