The 14 Best Italian Restaurants In Nashville 2024
"Rolf & Daughters won’t readily admit that it’s an Italian restaurant, but if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and has spaghetti, ravioli, and rigatoni on the menu, well—quack, quack. Restaurant genres aside, they sure know how to throw down when it comes to Italian food. The sourdough with seaweed butter is always a mainstay (and for good reason), but you really can’t go wrong with any of the pastas on the rotating menu, especially the always-al dente mafalde iterations with a few bottles from the thought-provoking wine list. The vibe here, though, is utterly unpretentious and unaffected—brick walls, moody lighting, long wood tables—perfect for celebrating a birthday for that friend who always wants to “keep it small,” but deserves something special.
