I visited Sauced with my husband last weekend when we were back in Nashville for a weekend. I…read morecouldn't have loved it more. It's a great wine bar with an amazing selection of natural wines, delicious food, the best service, and an amazing ambiance. What's not to like? Sauced works a little bit differently than a lot of wine bars. We walked in and were welcomed right away. When we grabbed seats at the bar (there are also tables), our bartender (I feel terrible that I'm not 100% sure of his name since we had such a great time with him - but I'm pretty sure it was John) asked us about wines we like or are drawn to. They don't have a printed menu - they ask you what you like or are in the mood for and then they they'll pour you tastes until you find something you love. Then they have several fridges of bottles you can purchase and open. And their selection here is also great. We saw bottles by several winemakers we stalk (when we see, we usually buy). The wines our bartender recommended (based on our tastes and preferences) were great, too. They also have a great menu of food items - great for a meal or a snack. We ordered their mortadella sandwich, which will likely go down as one of my favorite sandwiches of the year (great bread, tons of mortadella, pistachio cream, gooey melted cheese)... I think I covered this already, but the service was excellent: attentive (we didn't have empty glasses for long at all before we were involved in a conversion about what we wanted to pour next), friendly, helpful... The bar itself is also great - tons of character: walls with smoke from candles, great lighting, little intimate nooks for seating... I had a great time at Sauced: great wine, great food, a great time. I'm not in Nashville as often as I should be (in laws), but I'd be happy to visit Sauced every time I'm in Nashville. Sauced might be an outpost of a Brooklyn wine bar, but Nashville is still so lucky to have it. Most cities don't have a wine bar as great as Sauced.

While I enjoy getting to talk to the bartender about what I like or may want to try, if they're busy, I don't want to just spend all of our time asking them the price of things. We definitely had a little sticker shock at the end of the night, but this was also my first time here so that could be something I just wasn't expecting! Aside from that, the service and wines were great. So while it isn't somewhere I see myself putting in my weekly rotation, it's a nice option for a special occasion or nicer evening.

It's upstairs in the Assembly Food Hall and has a really nice patio as well as indoor seating. There's also a sneaky little upstairs spot inside for private parties (cool view and I have one of the pictures posted on this review). It's just a pretty restaurant and I'm always happy when I'm here. The food is always good - everything is hot or cold as it should be. There's a vast variety of options depending on what you are looking for, and a lot of it is great to share with a table of friends. I love the cocktails here, but the wine is always amazing and a safe bet. Servers will take great care of you and you'll be enjoying every minute.

Cool vibe, loved all the old TVs behind the bar. The soup of the day was Italian meatball which Adam highly recommended. I opted for the half and half, doing the soup and the Tuscan tuna panini on ciabatta. Both were 10/10 good! I wasn't planning on drinking, but their happy hour is such a steal, I couldn't pass it up. Got a great $15 glass of Chard for only $6. Highly recommend.

It was happy hour, so the wines were $6. But I couldn't find anything I liked. I appreciated that they let me taste several wines options. I ended up getting the peach sour, and it was tasty. I wouldn't call this place a destination, and I wouldn't wait to get in. But it's otherwise a fine place to drop in when you're in the area.

I ordered the Mafaldine with braised rabbit and while it was tasty, I eventually couldn't get past the fact that I was eating rabbit (personal thing, not a knock on the dish itself).

A bit on the pricey side, but overall a solid experience, especially if you're looking for a relaxed, aesthetic dinner spot.

The curse of Rumours continues!…read more I don't know that any business can survive this address. My first BW review of the year and it seems to have come as a surprise. Whispers abound as to whether the issue at VG was a rent hike or whether the owner just lost interest. In any event, it's the same sad story at the corner of 12th and Woodland. And that's too bad because VG acquitted itself nicely. On a Friday in mid-spring it was the exact right place I wanted to be to catch up with a friend. That backyard has been the stuff of legends for every iteration for a reason. If you've been here for a while, you know the score: walk in the front, smile, be greeted, ask for a table outside. That's just what we did. But before that we got drinks. Being a wine bar and being happy hour and being a Friday we went all in on the house red sangria. Served in a pleasantly large goblet, this goodie jar of wine and fruit did the job of quenching thirst and spurring conversation. To add to the libations, we settled on a series of bites: whipped feta (with sourdough -- and every bit of decadent as described in other reviews), olive tapenade (a briny, mound of oil, citrus and herbs) and (skinny) fries with parmesan & white truffle oil. Right?? What a perfect way to end the work week and begin the weekend. We had wonderful service from Abby and stayed on premises well into sundown. There was a steady crowd throughout our visit so I don't think a lack of business was the COD. Whatever the reason, it sort of boggles the mind that a wine bar concept can't stick around in a neighborhood and location that seems to crave it. That curse might be real.

Cute little place to sip some wine and try some small plates. We tried the Brussel sprouts (half…read moreserving was more than enough!) and the caprese. I thought both were ok, nothing super memorable, but tasty nonetheless. Maybe it was just my taste, but the sprouts were a little too charred for me. Found free street parking not too far from the restaurant. Our waitress gave us good wine recs which I appreciated! I liked all the Van Gogh artwork, especially the paper mache ear!

Originally when I heard about this place I thought hmmm why would I go to a ~just~ a bread place? I thought, Im a girl who likes to eat I need more. Well, this place was suggested by a friend to catch up. I completely miss judged butterlamp- of course, I should've known to give it a try. Located at the back of the building you can enter through going around back or walking through the building. Its a small place, but they have tables and bar seating. The wine menu is glorious. So much to choose from. I like how you order at the bar because it gives you a chance to see what everyone else is drinking as they keep the open bottles up front. I asked the staff what I should order based on wanting a chilled red. They gave me tow options. I chose a Nebbiolo and loved it! We ordered two "bread with stuff". We got the pumpkin and the french onion. Both were amazing! We went at 2 pm so it was the perfect snack. They did have a fairly diverse menu. Music was upbeat and chill and at the perfect volume to have an enjoyable conversation. They also sell loaves of bread to go, which of course we got.

When we entered we were greeted at the door by our hostess and sat promptly. She was checked in on us throughout the night and gave us plenty of time to look over the food and drink menus with out feeling rushed. Once we ordered, our drinks came out quickly with the only downside being pricing. Some cocktails, like the margarita (it does contain casamigos), were around $18, which felt a bit high. Our appetizers arrived shortly after. We got the Pappas Brazas and they were crispy and well sauced and honestly really good! The only other con came with the entrees. Again I the prices felt a little high for what you get but they have since lowered some of their prices. Overall though food was hot and fresh and very tasty! I would recommend this restaurant to friends and am excited to try their happy hour next time I go!

The Authentique truly feels like a little piece of France tucked into East Nashville. The décor, the vibe, hearing so many different languages around us, it honestly felt like being back in Europe. They have one of the most impressive wine lists I've seen in the city, and if you're indecisive like me, the wine flights are the way to go. We did the Tour de France flight, my husband went with the whites, I did the reds, and everything was incredible. The Beaujolais, Pinot Noir, Chards (yes, because we of course shared haha)... just wow. We paired it all with steak tartare (yes, they have French bites too!), plus they offer charcuterie boards, crepes, and more. Definitely coming back for those. Bonus: every Tuesday they host wine tastings at the bar led by their sommelier, each week with a different theme, mostly French and other European wines. tickets can be purchased in their website Huge thank you to Alexander for walking us through the whole concept. We finished the night with a beautiful Blanc de Blanc to toast our anniversary. What a gem in Nashville, can't wait to be back.
