    The food had no flavor. Sauce was cold that the chicken parm was placed on top of. Staff was good and when they asked if we wanted to wrap it to go since we didn’t eat it all and we said no and explained why they had a manger come to the table. They apologized and took care of the meal and drinks. We were really looking forward to good Italian food for dinner and were disappointed.

    Our new go to restaurant for Italian food! Felicity is a successful establishment that originated in Memphis, Tennessee. As a former resident of Memphis, my family often went there for special occasions and celebrations. I was so delighted when it popped up on my OpenTable here in Nashville exclamation point husband had chicken piccata and I enjoyed shrimp marinara. Everything was prepared to perfection. The ladies at the table next to us ordered VC’s pizza. It looked divine, and it was New York style. It is on our list to try next time we visit. Our server Amber was a delight! There are two seating areas: a dining room and a more festive bar area with a large TV. I could see this being a great place to catch a game and get something delicious to eat. We were there on a Saturday night and the bar area had a great live singer.

    Very underwhelming. The dining room is very crowded, tables are way too close together. As we were leaving, we had to disturb people in order to get to the door. It’s also very brightly lit. The Fra Diablo was a huge bowl of marinara sauce with 6 or 7 shrimp in it. Way too much sauce and impossible to eat sauce with a fork. No pasta, no bread, just sauce and shrimp. For $44 this was very disappointing. I asked for a side of pasta and was charged $14 for about a cup of cooked spaghetti. The seafood platter at $62 was not any better. It was supposed to include the fish of the day which we were told was Halibut, but it came with Salmon. There were also large pieces of lobster shells with no meat in them. Our waiter was friendly, but didn’t know the menu very well. I know it’s hard for restaurants to be profitable these days with food and labor costs, but they should improve the food quality or they won’t be around long. Also, dim the lighting a little and train your staff better.

    Villa Castrioti in downtown Nashville is a wonderful spot for casual Italian dining. The atmosphere is relaxed, making it a comfortable place to enjoy a meal with friends or family. The service was attentive and friendly, and the food did not disappoint. We started with the meatballs marinara appetizer and garlic bread—both were excellent and a perfect way to begin the meal. For entrées, I had the chicken marsala with a side of spaghetti marinara, and it was fantastic. The marsala sauce was rich and flavorful, and the chicken was perfectly cooked. One of my tablemates enjoyed a veal dish, while another had the classic spaghetti and meatballs, and both were very pleased with their meals. For dessert - the tiramisu was perfect for sharing and most delicious! The wine list is straightforward, offering a good selection of Chiantis and some higher-end options, so there’s something for everyone. Overall, we had a great experience and would highly recommend Villa Castrioti for anyone craving delicious Italian food in a casual setting. Don’t forget your ID - it is needed no matter your age if you plan to enjoy wine or cocktails.

    Food choices and tastes were excellent. Bar staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. Only negative was not having more wine choices by the glass / bottle and missing some common spirit choices. (Bombay Gin) Background music (Pandora) was very good. We left before the guitar player started. Will definitely be back.
