Our party of four all had a spectacular dinner and the service was perfect. My Osso Bucco was a large portion of fork tender pork with deep rich flavor nestled in luscious risotto. We are only in town for a few days and we have reservations to return later in the week. This has been a must every time I come to Nashville.
