Best Authentic Restaurants in Hendersonville

We had our Valentine’s Day dinner at Alberto’s, and it was an unforgettable experience! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for a romantic evening. The highlight of our meal was the risotto—absolutely incredible! Creamy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked, it was easily one of the best risottos we’ve ever had. The service was attentive and friendly, making us feel well taken care of throughout the night. Alberto’s is a gem, and we can’t wait to return for another delicious meal. Highly recommend!!

For being out in the burbs this is legendary wood-fired pizza!

A hidden gem! This small family owned restaurant tucked away across from Gallatin High School. They said they’ve been here since 2008, and it is family owned and operated. The ambiance is unique, and you feel like you’re transported to Chicago. They serve very authentic Chicago style food. Hotdogs, Italian beef sandwiches, homemade pasta and pizzas. This should be on your list! It’s a hidden gem!
