Loved it here! As soon as you walk in the door it smells so good. It's very modern with accents of Lemon and nature esque branches hanging inside and wrapped around the patio. Our server recommended the risotto halibut and it was fantastic! It paired well with my limoncello margarita which was so good I treated myself to two. Cannot wait to go back! read more

The food was blah. Appears to be a high end spot especially with the prices but I ordered a fish dish which was just alright. Not in a rush to return to this spot. Also, the short ribs were very fatty. We had to send them back read more

Fabulous Legitimate Unmatched. REAL New York Italian has landed in Nashville. And I don't mean a pizza joint. Elevated. Refined. Delicious. Easter Brunch was magnificent. I mean, a meatball in the Bloody Mary?!?! Wow. Anthony and Theresa have brought all the sophistication of their family's restaurant in Manhattan to the Gulch. We are so lucky they are here. The best Bolognese I have ever ever had. Cioppino, same. Milanese, same. Whatever you do, save room for the banana pudding. And the perfectly espresso flavored Tiramisu will leave you wanting more. read more

The food was good for the most part. I had the short rib and I really enjoyed it but my fiancé ordered the pork Milanese and it was so pink it the middle he felt unsafe to eat it. We still paid for it even though we sent it back and got nothing else in return. Something else I was disappointed in was I asked the waiter for an aperol spritz and he told me that the bar couldn't make it. When I went to the bar after the meal they told me they definitely could make it and had made many that night. So I was confused on why I couldn't have ordered one with my meal. Overall the food that was edible was very delicious, but the wait staff could have been more knowledgeable about their menu. read more

Found Luogo on Yelp! Made a reservation for a Thursday evening. We were seated in a nice quiet table in back. Roland was our server and was great. He also had a lot of help making sure that our water was full, clearing plates etc. I had the meatballs and my wife had the Pesto Gnocchi. Very tasty and too much to finish. Couldn't take it with us as we were going to listen to music after dinner. I definitely recommend. Food service and ambience was top notch. read more

Our second visit! Another lovely time. Emma was an absolute joy of a server. Checked in on us a perfect amount and made sure we had everything we need. She also provided great recommendations. I had the cherry tomato fettuccine & it was incredibly refreshing, a great way to wrap up tomato season! The arancini is always a hit. We will be back for sure! Thanks Emma for doing such a great job. read more

I loved Luogo! Not only is the food delicious and cozy, but the ambiance here is killer; which is something I really miss from the West Coast or "bigger city" restaurants. It's hard to explain, but it feels like the restaurant is alive; there's a bustling movement, stiff drinks, loud conversations, and enticing smells. I could have sat and sipped wine here for hours. If this is your first time here, a must order is the Grilled Margherita Pizza. A cracker thin crust charred and topped with incredibly fresh basil and pecorino Romano cheese. *chefs kiss* I ordered the Pappardelle with Duck Ragu. Shout out to Cody, our server, who highly recommended it especially upon our first visit. My favorite part of this dish were the slightly under cooked flat noodles and the devilishly tender duck confit. Just give me a 20mg gummy, a bowl of Luogo duck confit, and a binge worthy show, and I'm set! The drinks here are just as good as the food. The old fashioned was made with a touch of rum and I loved every ounce. My wife and I truly had an amazing experience and a date night that we will remember for quite a while. Did I mention that Jay Cutler was sitting two tables away from us? Grazie per l'ospitalità, Luogo! read more

I hosted a large group (40+ ppl) last night at Luogo for my teams year end meeting. Rachel, Jen, and Mary did an incredible job serving the group - they were friendly, very attentive, and responsive. That experience added to the meal and celebration. I've hosted this and other large dinners at Luogo's since Anthony and Teresa opened the restaurant in the Gulch. This was by far the best (all of the prior were good) experience we've had at luogo to date. read more

Luogo is easily one of the best dining experiences that I've had in Nashville. I have seen many influencers highlighting this new restaurant, so I was curious to see what the hype was all about. I was surprised to find it was not overhyped at all, and exceeded my expectations! The staff is very friendly and attentive, while not being overbearing while your enjoying your dinner. I ordered the bolognese pasta and my boyfriend had the spaghetti and meatballs. The pasta is cooked al dente, and was delicious. We both ordered drinks, and they were great as well. I had the Frizzante Limoncello and my boyfriend ordered the Luogo Sour. The Luogo Sour came out in a cocktail glass and was pretty to look at if you want to take cute pictures with cocktails. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our dinner there and it was the perfect place for us to celebrate our anniversary! read more

Excellent dinner and service!! Connor was just as awesome as the chicken piccata. Highly recommend for a fun dinner.

One of the absolute best Italian restaurants in Nashville hands down. The desserts were amazing also! The service was spectacular as well.

Luogo was my best Nashville dining experience of 2025. Everything was incredible. For appetizers, we had the focaccia, giant meatball, and arancini, all delicious. Our entrees included rigatoni Bolognese, the market red snapper, Italian sausage and peppers (quite good but will try something different next time), and their incredible braised short rib. The chocolate mousse and bomboloni were polished off even though we were full from the generous portions because the desserts were just that good. Drinks were spot on, valet parking was a breeze, and the atmosphere is very inviting. Hannah was our server and did a lovely job. She was knowledgeable, attentive, and delightful all around. I noticed all the staff seemed to complement each other. read more

Luogo was a solid choice to celebrate our daughter's 21st birthday The ambiance was beautiful, and our server "E" was incredibly attentive to our table. The sommelier was nice as well as attentive and knowledgeable. The wine selection was amazing! We chose a tasty Sauv Blanc to accompany our dinner. Now for the food.....WOW! The rigatoni was THE BEST I've ever had.....and trust me, I've eaten it across the globe, so well done Luogo! Everyone enjoyed their entrees. read more

Everything we ordered was amazing! Our waitress recommended that we tried the meatball appetizer with polenta and it was out of this world!

Gave Luogo a try for Valentine's Day. Pretty room, decent service ... but a ridiculous (and undisclosed until check presentation) FIFTY FIVE DOLLAR CORKAGE FEE. I was ok with the highly overpriced arancini; $25 for three golf ball sized lumps of rice was silly expensive, and they weren't the best I've ever had. The house made pasta was toothsome, but the sauces were one-dimensional, and cried out for salt. However, the corkage fee was beyond the pale. Don't waste a meal or your money here; there's simply no value to be had. Since I'm not one to complain about a problem without a solution, I offer up Pastaria off Charlotte Avenue as a fabulous alternative. Both restaurants offer house made pasta in a pleasant atmosphere ... but Pastaria's pricing is far more reasonable, as is their corkage fee, and their sauces were more flavorful. Update-Evan, Luogo's general manager, reached out the next day. He kindly refunded the corkage fee. I invited him to let me know if the restaurant revisited the corkage policy, and, if so, I'd be happy to spread the news. read more

Great ambiance, and the pastas we had were insanely good! I ordered the rigatoni bolognese, (was unaware when asked by the waitress that adding ricotta was extra), and was one of the best I've had. Definitely on the overpriced end of restaurants, but overall a good experience. They are sister companies with Pelato. read more

Beautiful ambience at Luogo - restaurant is located on the bottom floor of a commercial building. Ordered pappardelle with duck ragu - excellent - flavors of this entree were amazing - order this! Seared salmon - good; other entrees / chittara with beef meatballs and Pasta Primavera- good. Birthday celebration at our table and the tiramisu has a flaming candle - fun! However in my opinion, I feel like the birthday dessert should have been complimentary since the total bill was over $100 per person. Service -we had a table for 10 and the server was a little slow in the beginning- the drink order took 30 minutes and this dinner dragged on 2-1/2 hours... read more

First things first, parking: there is a parking lot across the street but rates can get a little crazy. They do have valet parking and that's $20. Every single person at Luogo are friendly, respectful, funny & helpful. From the moment we walked in everyone was super attentive. We did make a reservation as we were a party of 5. I would highly suggest you do as the place quickly got busy. Our waiter always kept in mind my food restrictions and made sure to let me know if any of the plates had any of the restrictive ingredients. He gets a golden star for that. I even forget my food restrictions but he kept them in mind 100% of the time. Now, the goods: food. One word: perfection! We attempted to try each of their 5 pasta plates but they weren't serving one of them which they were very apologetic about it. No big deal. Happy to report ALL remaining 4 plates were delicious. Highly recommend the Pappardelle with Duck Ragu. Very few places can make duck taste that good. Portions were generous too! Desserts were just as amazing and also generous size. They do have a bar and background music which at time almost made want to dance. Looked like they have a private area too. Now, price? Average $25-$30 per person. You decide the rest. read more

Have you not been outside the Country/state/nearing county? If the answer is Yes. Then this ll knock your socks off. Like ambiance, service, food. Now if you have been to a decent city/country, with actual good food, then the experience is average. Appetizers were ok, salty a bit! Pasta was good, and other main dishes we tried, good not over the top good. Like it was just another restaurant experience nothing special. Staff is nice and attentive. Would i be back probably not, again nothing special! Just another restaurant. read more

Great food and gluten free options were so good! Cody our server was awesome 10/10 recommend!

PACKED AND OVERPRICED. We arrived on a Saturday night and the restaurant was full. They sat us at a long banquette with a table for two and we had people on each side of us. We were sitting so close to other people we could see their meal and hear their conversation. I ordered the bread appetizer and the seabass. See my photo of the bread appetizer. For the price, it was not much bread at all. I have received a whole loaf in other Italian restaurants or the bread was just complementary. So that was my first disappointment. For my main course I had the seabass. When I ordered it, I asked if I could change the side dish to a pasta. The server no, this is way it comes. Ok then. The dish arrived and the fish skin side down and when I flipped it over it was the thinnest piece of fish I have ever been served in a restaurant. When I scraped the fish off the skin with my fork, it amounted to 2 bites of fish. For approx. $40, I expected more. I had the gelato for dessert and it very nice so no complaints there. She had a pasta dish- the pappardelle with duck ragu. She liked it but didn't finish it. I had the bread, the seabass, the gelato, and bottle of water and it was approx. $92. I mean come on now. We visited for the weekend and felt Nashville was overpriced as a whole- from the hotel room, to the breakfast place we stopped at, and now this restaurant for dinner. It was par for the course. If you do decide to try it, bring money and expect very little. read more

Luogo is a MUST. I'm so happy they made their way here in the gulch. Ive been here a handful of times and I love Italian food so much! The fritto misto is a favorite of mine. It's so light, and there's a variety of veggies and seafood in the mix. I feel less guilty eating it! Also, the meatballs were unbelievable. I highly recommend both of them. The pizza is so good and thin! I was impressed, and some of my Italian friends agreed this one lands high on their list as well. The rigatoni bolognese was packed with flavor and the lobster bucatini was light and flavorful as well. You can tell everything is made with fresh ingredients and the pasta was cooked al dente. I dream of Luogo everytime a friend comes to visit me because it's that good! There's always room for desserts. The banana pudding with chocolate chips added a nice texture, the bomboloni was nicely coated with sugar, tiramisu was light, and the Italian lemon olive oil cake had a perfect tang. Overall, service is always great here and I love the food. No complaints! 5 stars all around. read more

Dining out with Celiac disease can be a stressful challenge, but Luogo has great protocols to make it a safe and delicious experience.

We arrived on a chilly Friday night for dinner. Beautiful decor with professional staff. I saw 4 bartenders working and quickly realized that they are needed.

The bolognese was very good. Our waiter was friendly and attentive. Our water glass was never empty. Huge wine list. Cute bathrooms.

Luogo was our first dinner spot during our recent trip to Nashville, which kicked off the trip on a high note. About halfway through our meal, we discussed the last time we had such delicious Italian food. Before landing on Luogo as our dinner spot, we decided between here and Pelato (owned by the same company). Later in our trip, we went to Pelato, but starting with Luogo was an excellent decision. For a party of two, I found it a nice semi-upscale spot to get a great dinner. Besides the food, a very noticeable positive of Luogo is the service. During our visit, we were constantly being attended to, and everyone from the second you step foot inside the restaurant is more than friendly. At no point did our wine need to be refilled, water refilled, or did an empty plate stay on the table for too long. You can tell that quality service is a big emphasis for their business, and everyone works together. Getting to the food now. We split a Grilled Caesar salad, a bottle of wine, and then two pasta dishes. From the pictures on Yelp, I was set on getting the Chitarra with Beef Meatballs. The tomato sauce is hearty but also not overpowering. The meatballs are so juicy, and each bit is a good one. read more

I am so impressed with this restaurant, especially considering they have only been open about a month! What a MOOD - as soon as you walk in, you can feel the love and culture. Everyone has worked hard to make this place special and you can tell immediately. I loved that the management/owners came by to check on us - multiple people - to ensure we were having a good experience. Our server, Hope, was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. She recommended wine for us, explained some of the entrees and cocktails, and was genuinely pleasant. One note: when you are ready to order, make sure everyone at the table is ready with their choices, including your appetizers. The tickets are submitted with the entire order; the kitchen/chef time your meal so you have your appetizers first and then your main courses. Dessert can be ordered separately without an issue. We had a party of 5 and ordered a plethora of dishes to share. Everything was cooked very nicely and our entire table agreed that the saffron pasta was the winner. I could have eaten five bowls (I'd be absolutely miserable after, but it would be worth it). The other pastas were nice and al dente, but maybe could have used a tiny bit of salt or something else with a little *oomph*. But we all agreed they were cooked well and had good flavors. The meatballs were nice and tender and seasoned well. Overall - a solid experience. I will definitely be back and cannot wait to see how Luogo continues to grow and adapt as a new spot in town. Cheers! read more

Ambiance is great! We now have made it a staple for our date nights. Big shout out to Camille and Joey for making our dinners a more personal event. Love the Nduja sausage and Gemelli, glad it is now on the regular menu! It has Burrata on top which finishes it perfectly. Their olives and breadsticks are complimentary and are spicy and delicious! They use good evoo. The portions are enough to fill you(but maybe a little small) and it is a little pricey, but my husband and I think it is worth it! Go see for yourself! read more

The best Italian food we had in Nashville! We decided to go for a fancy dinner before a Opry show. We called early on during the day and made a reservation. We had walked by the restaurant multiple times and picked it based on its appearance and the vibes it was giving. Excellent service and a delicious meal, and friendly staff. We ordered the fall salad, arancini and grilled pizza Margherita. The pizza was absolutely Devine - it was the most perfect thin crust pizza (that didn't get soggy). You could tell the ingredients were the finest and fresh. The fresh tomato sauce on the pizza was so good and the cheese was delicious. The fall salad had the right amount of dressing and the combination of walnuts, greens, amerena cherries with the gorgonzola was so so yummy! Honestly we were stuffed after ordering these three items so we didn't order any other dishes. read more

Wow!! This is a fabulous restaurant! The service was outstanding. From the time we were seated until closing our check the attention by staff was top notch. Water person, waitress, people constantly being attentive to our every need. Every detail of the restaurant was perfect in my opinion. The food was outstanding. The wedding soup was the best I have ever had. The arancini (rice balls) were soooo good. The rice inside with cheese was creamy and delicious with a crisp crust that was perfect. Not greasy or overcooked. I had the pappardelle pasta with duck confit. It was loaded with mushrooms and the rich spicy confit was excellent. We each added ricotta to our entrees to give it a creamier sauce. It was a good call! Tangy and delicious. The pasta bolognese was excellent also. The entrees are reasonably priced for the quality of food. The drinks were pricey but excellent. We had the Chianti, Italian beer, but the star was the espresso martini. Probably the best espresso martini I have ever had. The owner was there and he checked on our experience also. I was excited to even get a table here, as it is a packed restaurant. Beautiful place and I was honored to be able to dine here! read more
