    Simply exceptional. The entire team was a delight to interact with; they went above and beyond in ensuring we had a wonderful dining experience. The courses were so thoughtfully prepared, offered unexpected surprises to the palate, and yet very approachable. You could tell the chefs honor the science and joy of their craft. We surprised ourselves in choosing the non-alcoholic drink pairings; they were just as intricate and delightful as the meal. Worth every bit of the price. If you don’t have an adventurous +1, don’t wait—go alone.

    A dinner well worth booking as soon as you can (even if that is a month out)! We’ve been waiting for Kase to open since it was first mentioned to us when dining at their sister restaurant Noko. Everything from the moment you step into the entry bar is cozy and inviting. Arriving slightly early so you can enjoy a drink before the seating is a must! The mocktails rival any of their cocktails, so there’s something for everyone. The dining room is intimate and just 14 seats, but the noise level never got to a point that the small space did a disservice to the experience. You get an upfront seat to the chefs and they breakdown each piece as they plate it in front of you. Our personal favorites were course 1- hamachi and the middle courses serving 3 different cuts of tuna. We were celebrating a birthday and this is very much a perfect option for special occasions. The value is unmatched for Nashville without compromising on quality or creativity. As others have said before the playlist is indeed on point! Congratulations to the Kase x Noko team on a second 10/10 restaurant!

    Our family group of four ate here for the first time while celebrating my mother's 91st birthday. The food and service were superb. Our dinner choices included Pelato Salad, Panelle, Radiatori Vodka, Chicken Parmigiana, Creamy Spinach, Polenta Bolognese, Roasted Mushrooms and Chicken Saltimbocca. My wife requires gluten-free options and the menu was very clear about that, although it was easy to lose track of those choices after the dishes arrived. Our server, Cayli, was outstanding in every way. She manages to be both friendly and effective - a real professional. Both the manager and owner visited our table; a nice touch. Highly recommended.

    We went for the Christmas Eve buffet and EVERYTHING was absolutely perfect. The jazzy Christmas music was relaxing. Our server was a 100, he was so friendly and very attentive to everything we needed. He kept our table clean and even folded our napkins for us when we went back for more. The food was amazing, our table of 4 all had different favorites; I'm still thinking about the French Onion soup, Pastrami smoked Salmon, coconut sweet potatoes and soy glazed Halibut. Thank you so much Adele's for a PERFECT Christmas eve dinner with family!
