Italian Cuisine
The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.
Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.
If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.

Yesterday was my first visit to Finezza. I have not been to any other Italian joint in Nashville, so this review is based on what i ate yesterday and my experience with Italian food elsewhere(outside US). I have to put it simply, I was blown away!! First thing I look for in Italian food is the quality of sauce, pasta(whichever kind) and the quality of flavors in the food.It has to be fresh and as far as I am concerned, cheese should not be the overpowering flavor(as in the Americanized version of Italian food). We had Red pesto chicken and Spaghetti and meat balls. Spaghetti and meat balls were perfect. They give two large meat balls here compared to the smaller ones you get elsewhere but the taste is fantastic. Spaghetti sauce was simple as it should be and the spaghetti was gr8. The red pesto chicken is a classic. As good as it gets. Absolutely amazing flavor and excellent ingredients. Again, cheese was not the overpowering taste. This is a entree to be ordered here. For people who like wine, Finezza has a big list. Ambiance is romantic, dim lights, lots of parking. Good place for an anniversary dinner or first date. I am a fan and going here again. Since, this was our fist visit here, they gave us a complimentary desert which by far is the best sweet thing I have eaten in Nashville.

I really like this place. Bread in the beginning is really good. Wine in a regular glass is slightly weird. The entree size is small when compared to other Italian restaurants. High priced entree's considering the size of the portions. Desert at the end is great. Overall a nice little restaurant. It can be crowded on Fridays and Saturdays.

I had a hard time deciding between 2 & 3 stars. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. As I'm big on value (except if I'm just blown away by the food), I don't plan to go back. Pros: - They bring you bread with little bowls of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, cheese, and herb butter right away. - They had some nice, unique options on the menu, including a butternut squash ravioli and salmon dishes - The food was good - You receive a lot of food for most items - It was clean with a nice atmosphere Cons: - The bread and condiments were not amazing - no one had more than one piece of bread, which is unusual with my group - There really weren't any gluten free / low carb options. I got salmon and just didn't eat the pasta part - The food wasn't amazing - Expensive! Everything was about $5 more than I'd expect

This is a great little Italian restaurant in the Belle Meade area. I haven't found a dish of theirs that I didn't like. Their Chicken Piccata is the best I've ever had and if you're looking for good Italian food, this is the place for you.
(4)Jena G.
A cute little Italian place with upscale features but casual attitude. Truly family-friendly menu and service. We loved the opening touch of fresh peasant loaf bread with olive oil & herbs. The food is very rich and balanced by generously reasonable portion sizes.

Finezza ItalianTrattoria used to be my "go to" eatery whenever I wanted a great meal and atmosphere, however the relatively new ownership has changed not only the menu but my desire to eat there. The Salmon Affogatti was absolutely the best anywhere. I had dinner at Finezza Italian Bistro tonight and I was underwhelmed with the veal not to mention the chocolate sauce drenched tiramisu. I will not return nor recommend this restaurant to others.
(1)S G.
Food was mediocre and service was abysmally slow. It shouldn't take 40 min to get spaghetti and meatballs and, if it does, at least prebus the salad plate and apologize for the delay. It wasn't that busy so there is no good excuse. No plans to return, even though I live less than a 1/2 mile away. Big disappointment.
(2)John F.
Been there once, food was really good, bar service was good. Valet parking a big plus. Only down fall was our waitress...reminded me of a tired old cranky truck stop waitress...unlike the other tables around us...they were offered appetizer and wine suggestions as well told about the specials. Ours just wanted to know what we wanted. I am sure we will venture back again, but will not be served by the same waitress again.
(3)Sandra T.
The staff and ambience are ok. Wine selection is decent, but is overpriced which is the norm for restaurants. The food is mediocre. I had veal Parmesan and stuffed portabellas and I could find similar quality from a box of frozen Stouffer's. And the place wasn't cheap. $12 for appetizer and $22 for the entree. Mediocre quality and fairly expensive = 1 star.

Originally planning to venture up to Germantown, then discovering none of the restaurants had Sunday night hours, we stayed near home and went here, since my husband had been noticing this hidden place being quite busy on a couple of drive-by occasions. There were only a few tables seated when we walked in & it remained this way until we left. The bread that came when we sat down was so soft and warm, I couldn't keep my bear hands off! It came with a tasty sun dried tomato butter, balsamic, good oil, and grated cheese. We started with the Caprese salad ($11) - good/typical and the Tuscan salad ($15) - really good! The marinated tenderloin on the Tuscan was increeedibly yummy...I don't remember everything our waiter said it's marinated in, but the main parts are worchestshire, soy sauce. The mozzarella fritters are really big and gooey, which is poifect. Out of character for me, I ordered the lobster ravioli ($20) and am soooooooo glad I did. Oh boy, oh boy, I jump for joy! The raviolis were not too thick, the sauce was awesome, and the lobster and corn inside was equally awesome. It came with 3 shrimp on top, which I didn't eat, as I've been in a long-going fight with shrimp. My husband didn't order from the menu but ordered gnocchi in pesto sauce with shrimp...he gave it 4 stars. The gnocchi was good, but depending on your taste, it was very potato-y. We ordered the mocha cheesecake and tiramisu to go...the tiramisu was 90% whipped cream and I only had one bite. The cheesecake was really really good though. It was a lot of food, but the mid and smaller-sized portions (though priced NYC-style, which we're used to, so didn't mind) were fine for us to carry through the whole meal. We took 1/2 of the gnocchi home too. I don't know the waiter's name, but he was really nice & friendly! With our 2 salads, 2 entrees, 2 desserts, 1 glass of wine, & $20 tip, our total was $126. Expensive, yes, but it was really good & worth it :) Will definitely be back!

Our waiter could NOT have been any better. The food was great as was the atmosphere. I thought the prices were reasonable and I loved the food.I had the lobster ravioli, my date had some sort of chicken dish that I ate half of and loved.
(5)Pam S.
Great dinner on a Thursday night! At 6:30, no wait, quick service. I had the butternut squash ravioli, which was amazing!!! I will definitely go back very soon for this dish. The red sangria was wonderful, too. Large menu to choose from.
(4)Melissa B.
I'm writing another review and this time I've deducted one star for the reason about which I previously complained: TIME! How long does it take to cook a chicken breast? I ordered the chicken caprese, which was delicious.. once it got to our table. On a Friday night there was just a 1- or 2-party wait at the restaurant, and it still took 40 minutes to get our food (after ordering). This is just insane. The table next to us complained several times about not receiving their food in a timely fashion, and at first I made a comment to my husband about their perceived impatience.. until another long wait for me. I have to go back to Finezza to use a gift card that our neighbors gave us, and I love the food.. but they really need to get it together in the kitchen!
(2)Jessika L.
My fiancé and I got a gift card to Finezza from my boss, and we were really eager to try it because we heard such great things. We were seated immediately right by the door. It's Christmas time so they had two cute elderly people by the Christmas tree dressed as Mr. and Mrs. Clause. We waited no less than 10 minutes to be greeted by ANYONE, because the entire staff decided to take group pictures right by us with Santa. Not only were they all loud and rude, a few tables were trying to leave and couldn't because of the little "photoshoot". They wouldn't stop and let them pass, it was ridiculous. Not only were they a bother, several employees trying to pack into these photos kept banging into my chair. By this time I was extremely angry. Still no one acknowledged us. Another 5 minutes went by after the photo shoot was over and we finally got a waiter. All of our food came out in good time, we enjoy ourselves, had some good wine and took our leftovers home. I began feeling sick in the car when we left. About an hour later I became extremely sick. I was up until 3 AM vomiting up everything I ate, amongst other personal symptoms. So was my fiancé. I went to the doctors the next day because it didn't stop when I woke up and I had food poisoning obviously. I will not be coming back.
(1)Michelle M.
First of all, Service is TERRIBLE. Waited at the door for significant time until hostess finally appeared and sat us NEXT to table of infant and toddler. Great. Well, we went there for a Groupon-type special, so the end price I paid was more appropriate than the original bill. Having said that, the Bruschetta was mediocre, at best. Very watery tomato topping to toasted bread that had some awful cheese atop it. Waited and waited for water and ice tea refills as our "waiter" was also the bartender. Okay. Salad dressing were simply awful. Had to eat the salad sans dressing. Okay. Waited and waited again for main entre. Both dishes were edible but again, nothing to brag about. Would not visit here again, nor would I recommend it to anyone, even with a discounted voucher!

I can never decide which is my favorite Italian restaurant--Finezza or Caffe Nonna. Finezza isn't quite as quaint or date-worthy as Caffe Nonna. It is more family-friendly and noticeably bigger. Parking is a little easier, for sure. The menu is outstanding. Great wine list, and so many wonderful options to choose from. I usually gravitate towards veggie lasagna (no seriously, I know it's vegetarian but it's DELICIOUS), capellini pomodoro with spinach, goat cheese, and portobellas (to die for), and the spinach and walnut salmon. Lighter options are denoted on the menu, for those calorie-conscious patrons. Also--and this is important--the bread is the best bread you will ever be served, world without end, amen. It's soft, warm, (maybe whole wheat?) and comes with the traditional olive oil/balsamic vinegar/parmesan combo as well as the most perfect tomato (or roasted red pepper?) butter that has ever been created. I can usually limit myself to half a slice or no bread at all when I'm out, but the only thing that stops me from consuming the whole loaf when I come here is my husband, who loves it as much as I do. The food quality is on par (or better) than any Italian restaurant I have been to. Finally, the wait staff is very friendly, especially if you're a regular. I love coming here!

During the taste of Nashville I had the most delicious kabob's i'd ever had. I visited the restaurant and was not disappointed. If you live or visit Nashville this is a well kept secret.
(4)Jeannie G.
I have been going to Finezza for years and I absolutely love it. There is usually not a long wait, even on the weekends. The atmosphere is very warm and inviting. I love that they have pictures up on the wall of the patrons, employees, and the owner's family. The owner, Karen, is absolutely delightful. She takes so much pride in the restaurant and since she has taken over, I have noticed so many improvements -- both to the decor and the menu. My favorite thing on the menu is their meat lasagna. It really can't be beat. The eggplant parmesan is a close second. If you've never been, you should definitely try it. It's one of the best kept secrets in Nashville.
(5)Melissa R.
I was looking forward to digging into some "real food" since the few days before this eating venture I had been consuming a lot of chain restaurants' food. Finezza's did not disappoint. They start out with bringing you a fresh baked loaf of bread with little bowls of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, parm, and butter...and just keep refilling it. This was a huge plus since I honestly think I ate at least one loaf all by my lonesome. For salads we split a caprese which was so fresh (loved the shredded basil instead of huge leaves) and a caesar which might have been one of the tastiest I've had. I ordered the meat lasagna and they were not messing around. There was ground beef, Italian sausage, AND pepperoni in there. It was also covered with homemade marinara and a layer of melted cheese. I was warned it was a good amount of food, which made me think I would be bringing some of it home...but no, I ate every last bite and then proceeded to scoop up the remaining sauce with a slice of bread. I also tried a bite of the Frutti di Mare (shrimp, scallops, salmon, clams with veggies and angel hair pasta) which was very light and flavorful...very seafoody. Another thing I should mention, they make a mean margarita. I know that you shouldn't order a margarita at an Italian restaurant, but I just needed one. It was very tasty and I sipped it down in a few minutes. On top of the good food, our server was fantastic (AJ); he was nice, cool, funny, and SUPER helpful (he even gave us some suggestions for local BBQ shacks in the area).

This is a mediocre Italian restaurant at best. It's ok, but their bread is terrible.
(3)Tracy F.
Finezza has yet to disappoint us, whether we visit for a simple dinner for 2 or a group gathering. We very much enjoy the food and the atmosphere, and most of the waitstaff who've helped us have been incredibly friendly and attentive. I've tried several of the entrees on the menu, which are delicious, substantial, and delivered hot and fresh to the table. On my last visit, I enjoyed the Whole Wheat Chicken Primavera, which I expected to be hit or miss. I was thrilled to see that it was steaming hot (that's a good thing in my book) and full of chicken breast, fresh arugula (YUM) and plenty of other veggies. The chef was also careful to limit the amount of oil in the dish, per my request, which I very much appreciated. My fiance enjoyed the Cajun Seafood orzo, which was a play on jumbalaya and packed with jumbo shrimp, scallops and Italian sausage, all mixed in a spicy sauce. I stole a bite and immediately had food envy--as delicious as my entree was, the flavor of the sauce and the fresh seafood definitely stole the show. All entrees come with a fresh salad and incredible homemade bread. And the tiramisu? Can't come to Finezza and not order some. Seriously, some of the best I've ever had. Yum, yum and yum. In addition to a delightful dinner party for 2, I've hosted large gatherings at Finezza--one for work, one for my extended family who traveled to Nashville for an event. Both times, the manager, Karen, was extremely helpful and kind to work with. She went above and beyond her call of duty to accommodate our guests and helped me to craft a menu that had a wide variety of entrees to please everyone. The staff was wonderful in making sure our large parties (20-30 people in each) were comfortable and happy, and I was able to relax and enjoy my guests without worry. Thank you, Karen and co! Finezza is a wonderful addition to Nashville, and we look forward to many more delicious meals!

Everyone has their short list of quality restaurants that they visit time and time again. These restaurants are probably not revolutionary or surprising but they are tried and true and their food is good. Finezza is on my short list. If we've survived another work week and want pasta with out the any brew-haha, we head to Finezza. Finezza is a very classy, family run restraunt. The lights are low and romantic and the walls are covered with black and white pictures of the Family. They have small intimate tables for dates that can be pulled together to accommodate your rehearsal dinner. I've been here on a date, with friends, and with family. It honestly fits all occasions. The environment is friendly and classy. I've never had to wait more then 10 minutes for a table. The food. First off, as a warning, the bread can ruin your appetite. It's amazing: warm and squishy. They serve it with an olive oil that is delicious, I rarely use the sun dried tomato and regular butter that also accompanies the bread. Most of the meals come with a house or Cesar salad. The house salad is a balsamic vinaigrette that is delicious. The Cesar is good too but I usually order the house salad. I've never heard anyone that I've been with complain about the food. My personal favorites are the capellini pomodora and the white wine clam sauce. The capellini pomodora is very garlicy. If you don't like garlic, I would not recommend ordering it. The clam dish isn't on the menu but I'm able to order it without any problem. My boyfriend has also off menu ordered carbonara and they accommodated him. The boyfriend enjoys the chittara (which can be ordered spicy), the sausage and peppers, and the picata with veal. Last time, he ordered the picata and I stole a bite. It was delicious and the flavors were well balanced.

Su-ux. Always has no matter how this dump gets repackaged. Might as well go to Carrabba's if that's the kind of grub you're into. That f*cking logo, too on the sign. What an anomaly! A Spanish olive, a French description of the concept of an Italian restaurant. Ugh.
(1)Heather F.
Nashville is an amazing food city. I've lived all across the U.S. and I can say that from the restaurants I crave the most, or still dream about, Nashville holds many of the top honors. Finezza is on that list :) When my at the time long distance boyfriend (now fiance) would visit when I was living in Nashville, Finezza was our favorite place to go for a romantic evening. My honey lived in Boston, and we had been to some amazing Italian restaurants there, but for some reason, Finezza just had something special about it that drew us back there time and time again. He always ordered the veal or chicken Marsala and I often ordered the flag of Italy. The pasta here is amazingly fresh. The food is consistently good. The atmosphere is laid-back and romantic (with great lighting!). It's well worth the drive west down 70 to have some inexpensive but great quality Italian food...
(4)L L.
Finezza is an adorable little Italian restaurant tucked away in Belle Meade. The bread is heavenly, the entrees are delicious, and the tiramisu is to die for. Try it any time you are in the Nashville area!
(5)Robin S.
Finezza was the first restaurant I ate at when I moved to Nashville. I knew it wasn't "old Nashville" or anything, but my roommate and I were starving after the move and didn't have much money, and heard that this was a great, inexpensive place. It is! I have been back numerous times since that first meal in 1999--and love it more each time. It's nothing fancy--don't go expecting a five star meal or anything--it's just hearty, delicious, cheesy, authentic Italian food. Casual atmosphere too--you can go in jeans just as easily as you can dress up a bit! I really enjoy the stuffed manicotti, and there is also this sundried tomato pasta that I really like. Each time I go I try to get something different; I just don't go as often anymore because of the location--it's out by the 70/100 split and I'm not as close to that as I used to be! Great service, laid back atmosphere, amazing food--if you like rich, hearty meals. Great for a date night or with the family. They are very accommodating to larger groups as well! It is definitely worth checking out.
(4)Erich G.
One of the best meals I have had in a long time. Salmon stuffed with walnuts, honey glazed over spinach and red pepper orzo - amazing! Friendly, courteous, knowledgeable wait staff. Nice atmosphere. Great desserts.
(5)David S.
Finezza is one of the few spots I've been to on a date, and it was a great spot for it. Finezza is a wonderful Italian restaurant tucked away right before the Highway 70/100 split. My date suggested the place, and even though I had been in town longer, I had never heard of it. I'm glad he suggested it, and I've been back a couple of times. A casual Italian dining experience, it seems like a neighborhood kind of place (I've seen lots of families in the dining room). I love the fact that it's in a quiet spot (figuratively speaking, since there is the railroad that runs through the back of the property) that is easily accessible and less crowded then Green Hills/Cool Springs/etc. If you're only used to the Italian chains, Finezza is a nice change of pace. It's got all the basics you could want, and a few original takes on some dishes. Worth checking out for a date or for a group.
(4)Adam S.
I did not like it at all, I could not believe the price for the food that you got. The only thing I liked was the appetizer, stuffed mushrooms. I got the ceaser salad, capri salad, and the pizza. It was all not good. The rest of the family got steak and pasta. I was very disappointed. Service was poor but I won't rate them down on that because they tried very hard to do their best. They were not prepared for such a big rush. So once again, I rated them by food and not service.
(2)Mona T.
Barely average. Veal is tough and flavorless. Pasta sauces are bland. Service is fairly spotty, too. Not sure why everyone in Nashville thinks it's so great...
(2)kristen p.
Finezza is one of the best Italian restaurants in Nashville. It's great for a romantic yet affordable date night. I go here especially for "the flag of italy" which is red, green, and white cheese tortolini covered in a delicious pesto cream sauce with sundried tomatoes. My little sister (who refuses to eat pesto or sundried tomatoes) even loves it. Go here. You won't regret it.
(5)Janelle C.
We were sadly disappointed. Three close friends and I got dressed up for a nice evening out. We were all looking forward to it. I even looked up reviews, the menu, and wine list beforehand to make sure we were making the right choice for dinner. Our first bottleof wine was an excellent Italian Barbera. Each of our entrees came with soup or salad. I opted for Minestrone soup at our server Emily's suggestion. One of my friends ordered the Caesar salad, another got the house, and another the soup. I figured it was just me that didn't enjoy to soup, but after letting the others try it, they were disappointed as well; especially since our server recommended it. The Caesar and house salads were good. I wished I had ordered one of those, instead. For my entree I chose the Chicken Caprese: chicken breasts served atop angel hair pasta finished w/marinara, fresh basil, and mozzarella. I was so excited, until I started cutting into the chicken. It was well overdone. I had my expectations set so high that it only figures they'd be shot down. My friend to my left ordered the Veal Marsala. I tasted it: overdone and the sauce was too heavy. My other friend ordered the special for the evening, something I considered. It was an alfredo dish with chicken, red onion, peas, sun dried tomatoes tossed in rigatoni. It was bland and there was too much sauce. My friend seated across the table from me ordered the veal piccata. He said it was too lemony. 4 for 4. We figured, why even complain? The second bottle of wine was good, but didn't go well with the entrees we chose. It was priced at $46. After dinner we went next door to the wine shop in search of the first amazing Italian bottle, to find that the $46 bottle went for only $14.99! We felt a large lack of value and do not intend to revisit.
(2)Patti M.
Wonderful menu, great service and super ambiance! Dishes we choose were so delicious!
(5)Jason B.
This is a great little community spot that is very accommodating to families with children. Everything I've ordered has been really good. Most recently i had parpadelle with braised short ribs and mushrooms, and it was one of my favorite things I've had here. For desert, their tiramisu is excellent. The service can be a bit slow, but they are very attentive and you never feel like you have been forgotten.
(4)Terry M.
Just discovered this jewel. We've been there twice in the last 2 weeks. Good food, good service what more do you need?
(4)Carter B.
My late wife and I began coming here 20 or so years ago and I have many trips under my belt. Owners have come and gone and I see complaints about food quality,service, etc., but I still enjoy it. My date and I had a nice dinner with drinks. The service was good as well. My usual fave is the carbonara, but this time I went with the special. It was something with ground beef - sort of a casserole - and tasty. Maybe I am more of a gourmand than a gourmet. Instead of a salad we had the creamed asparagus soup with broccoli. It was excellent and served plenty hot, too. For dessert we split a large dish of spumoni ice cream. They always have it and I like it. One thing to be careful of here are the front steps if you are bringing or are a person somewhat unsteady on the feet or with vision problems. They are covered in a black carpet and at night are hard to see. Caution is called for. All in all, a good neighborhood place that has seemingly stood the test of time.
(4)Adrianne P.
I had Chicken Caprese. The pasta was a bit over cooked but I did enjoy my dish. I loved blending the marinara with the balsamic reduction. It pleased my taste buds. Out of four dishes on the table tonight, I liked mine the best. I highly recommend it. One of my friends ordered Butternut Squash ravioli. It was good but rich, almost like a desert, like sweet potato pie. Another friends had Eggplant Parmesan. She enjoyed hers but thought the marinara was a bit thin. I agree with that. My other friend had lasagna. Was very meaty but he ate all of it. Service was decent. The food took a bit to come out but it could be because it was homemade. I enjoyed my experience. No big complaints. Would go again.
(4)Debra S.
I have been going to Finezze's for many years. My family and I have been going there through several owners with the beginning being Mark Rubin, then David and then Karen. It was always good and the staff was great! The last three times with the newest owner the food has been less than average and the service was terrible. We waited for 30 minutes just to get our drinks and 45 minutes to finally get our food. The waiter was rude I guess due to him being stressed out? Then to top it off I paid with $200.00 cash and the waiter shorted me $10.00 in the change. I am so sorry to give any business a bad review but I gave her 3 chances! Unless the new owner changes a lot of things she will be closing a locate favorite which is place the us locals loved to come.
(1)G W.
I have been going to Finezza's since it opened many years ago when it was owned by the wonderful Mark Rubin and my son was just a little guy who loved going there. The food and service were always good and the atmosphere welcoming. I stopped by there tonight with friends for a light bite and a glass of wine. I ordered a Caesar salad. This should be a safe bet for an Italian restaurant. Sadly I was mistaken. The lettuce was tough, the croutons were stale, the Parmesan cheese was oddly tasteless and it was surrounded by cherry tomatoes, which I have never seen on a Caesar salad. Our waiter Aaron, who has been there for years and gives wonderful service, comped it when he saw I had not eaten much. I learned that it has new ownership and that much of the original kitchen staff has left. Aaron will be moving on soon as well. I hope the new owners figure out why Finezza's has been around so long and fix it.
