    Mexican Vanilla latte & Bloody Mary
    Heather F.

    Tantisimo is a delightful neighborhood Latin American spot. The earthy interior design makes it a comfortable dining experience. It's a smaller space, but both times I've gone, it's not been crowded. The food is delicious, and to my surprise the coffee is amazing. In some cases the portion sizes & the prices don't seem to match, but it wouldn't keep me from returning. They include the 20% gratuity automatically. There are a couple of parking spots in front of the building, but street parking the neighborhood is an option. Love: happy hour fish taco (the best fish taco I've ever had); chicken empanada (comes with delicious spicy sauce); Mexican Vanilla latte (balanced flavor, one of the best lattes around) Like: service (kind); Elote corn (delicious with the right amount of citrus, small portion for the price); Chilaquiles (great flavor, chips didn't hold their crunch from the kitchen to the table)

    Abuelitas enchiladas

    Everything was amazing! It's so cute in here. Ana and her staff were kind and well informed. We got a full run down of the menu (you can opt out if you want). There were two of us and we shared everything except we each got our own enchilada (iykyk). So good. The steak was delicious, empanadas delicious. The flan was such a favorite for me and I don't typically like flan. It made me dance in my seat. You can't go wrong, order everything!

    Chicken with Green Mojo sauce, Miso Balls and Grapefruit. Delicious!

    We had amazing service and the staff were so welcoming and kind. They gave us complementary mocktails and the most amazing Meade and Honey infused flan If you're hungry this restaurant isn't for you. The plates are very small so plan to share multiple items. Very tasty and perfectly fresh ingredients!

    This place really impressed me. The service was kind and welcoming. We came on a rainy Saturday for brunch and were seated immediately. I love the decor, makes you forget you're in West Nashville for a moment. The food and drinks were top notch. I was able to make some adjustments to breakfast burrito to make it vegetarian. My bf really enjoyed the steak and eggs. Everything was flavorful and perfectly seasoned. Also tried the Irish coffee that was delicious and strong. I will definitely be back to try dinner.

    IF YOU HAVEN'T eaten here yet YOU ARE MISSING OUT!! Get the bolillo and chorizo butter is a MUST!! We ordered almost everything off the menu and CLEANED every plate. The agua chile is ridiculously tasty! The steak was cooked to perfection and well seasoned! I had NO IDEA I liked MOLE! I DO!! The enchiladas was incredible. The chef - Josh - sent over a corn, zucchini, queso fresco appetizer and OMG!! We just ordered two desserts to seal the deal THIS place is approximately 20 minutes from the downtown Nashville TN but well worth the drive. Oh and if you want to practice or learn some dancing moves make sure to attend on Tuesdays!!

    I've tried Tantisimo's food at the farmer's market and was so excited when they opened this brick & mortar in Sylvan Park neighborhood with both outside and inside seating. Tantisimo serves up farm-to-table elevated Latin American cuisine from breakfast tacos to Brazilian steak. Tantisimo has a full bar with impressive, experienced bartenders. The staff at the farmer's market have always been excellent, and I found the same at the restaurant. Their work culture seems like a well-oiled machine, and I even saw them have a small birthday dessert and song for a staff member celebrating his 34th the next day. When each dish was served to us, the lady explained it in detail. Tantisimo does have happy hour dishes, and although we arrived past happy hour, at the bar seating only you're able to order the food specials all day (like gluten-free chicken empanadas). Save room for dessert! The flan was my favorite: smoky, crunchy, and delicate. Sylvan Park has free parking, and you can easily visit Richland Park or McCabe Greenway before your meal to work up an appetite.

    I'll just come out and say it: Going to Tantisimo made me exponentially cooler. I went on Sunday, and by Monday I overheard my coworkers talking by the water cooler, saying that over the weekend I seem to have developed a "chill, funky, vibe." (?) I guess there's something in the water (liquor) at Tantisimo that fundamentally alters a person for the swankier. Be it the terracotta toned accents or the waitstaff that all look like they could be in a band, there is a palpable grooviness to the joint. To sip, I chose the Margaret (bartender's recommendation for the closest thing to a Margarita). It was the perfect summer cocktail in my book - lime-y, fresh, with salt on the rim. I would like one everyday, thank you. My compadre was "tickled" (his words) by the Pisco Sour. I sipped it, daintily, and thought it was, ¿cómo se dice? "yum!" That is, if you enjoy drinking egg... which I only tend to do when it's conditioning season for my boxing match with Appollo Creed. We were too curious to pass up ordering the Bebida Rosita, as it included "bubblegum shrub" which was aptly described to us as tasting reminiscent of Hubba Bubba. It reminded me of kombucha, like maybe if you put a piece of ABC gum in a kombucha bottle and left it there for a little while. Suffice to say, weirdly good. The drinks were top notch, and I'd love to return for a bite.

    Drinks were excellent, I would go back for those alone! Food was tasty, elevated and fresh. Service was good. I recommend making a reservation especially on a weekend. Parking is limited but there are plenty of street parking spots within walking distance though so it was not a problem. Even with a low tolerance for spicy foods I enjoyed everything we ordered.

    Delicious! Our happy table of four got quite an array of entrees, mocktails, cocktails, and wine. Loved every bite of it! Definitely go and you'll have a great experience.

    INCREDIBLE! Visited for their Valentine's Day Pre Fixe menu and had an absolutely amazing experience. Our server, Warren, was extremely knowledgeable and paid special attention to details. The food was absolutely fantastic- down to every bite. This was the best dining experience I've had in Nashville.

    Another win for a Richland Park Farmer's market stand turned brick & mortar! Don't know what it is about Richland Park Farmer's market, but it's been an incubator for some of the best new restaurants in Nashville for the past few years. Tantisimo is no exception with punchy, flavorful Latin American food with an upscale vibe. I've had the pleasure of dining here twice for breakfast, first solo and then bringing my mom to try all the goods. The menu is meat-forward, but adaptable for vegetarians and the helpful servers have guided me through the menu really thoughtfully both times I've been. Standout items are the Ludacrisp quesadilla and the empanadas de pollo - both incredible flavor with spicy, flavor-bomb sauces to accompany them. I'm not usually a fan of chorizo but I'm so glad I got the quesadilla based on the recommendation of one of the servers. The chorizo is light compared to others I've tried (doesn't feel overly fatty or greasy but still has great flavor.) The cheese crust on the quesadilla should go viral, it's so perfect! Other food items we loved: the chilaquiles and the breakfast burrito. In general, I did find the food a little spicy, but I liked that, so keep in mind if you are spice-averse you may want to ask the kitchen to tone it down when you order. The churro blondie met a sweet itch but it was the least interesting of the dishes I've tried. Do NOT miss the coffee drinks if you are coming here for breakfast or brunch. Both drinks I've gotten have been FABULOUS and unique - a creamy and sweet dulce de leche latte for my mom and the NOT sweet but perfectly smoky and decadent mochatismo (mocha latte) for me. Compared to other mochas I've had, it was just so unique - not sweet, little bit of chili powder and true cocoa flavor making it smoky and delicious. Absolutely would come purely for this drink. I haven't tried dinner or happy hour yet but took a look at the menus with the help of one of the servers and already know I want to come back for those with friends. The happy hour deals in particular look amazing. Private parking is limited, as is typical of restaurants in this neighborhood but there is plenty of street parking in the neighborhood directly around the restaurant. Patio is covered, which is a nice bonus for these hot TN summers and means I'll likely bring my dog at some point! Such a gem and wishing this restaurant all the success, as I think it provides unique and different flavors than what we have in the surrounding area and has been on of the first new restaurants in a while I've been really excited about!

    I was introduced to Tantismo during a visit to the Richland Park Farmer's Market last year. Every time I'd go back my first stop would be with them to get a taco before I started shopping lol. So, when I heard they were opening a brick & mortar location, I knew I had to stop by. The breakfast tacos were just as good as I remember at the market, but maybe even better?! They were spicier than I remembered though, so if you are sensitive to spice, keep this in mind. I'm a fan of heat though, and the kick fades fast. The fresh squeezed OJ was good. Service was excellent. I'll be back again to try other things. Pacing is relaxed, a la, relax & enjoy your time here.

    The best breakfast tacos
    Kendall R.

    Can't wait to try the brick and mortar! We've been to the farmers market multiple times just to get their breakfast tacos. They are a holy experience. Best chorizo we've ever had!!

    We were in town and tried Answers as a last minute choice. With the rating we thought it would be…read morefine. The hostess greeted us with "if you don't have a reservation, you can have a table for 45 minutes." No where did I see that reservations are required. Luckily 3 spots opened at the bar so we sat there because we were told "you can sit there with no time limit." The bartender serving us made no effort to look anything but annoyed with our presence. We had never been there and had questions but she would just point at the menu. I ordered a Diet Coke, which came in a can, one person with me ordered an old fashioned which was more glass than drink and the other people picked a beer from the list the bartender silently pointed at. This would have been a cool place if at least 1 person working here didn't look like they hated being there. Because of how we had been treated from the start we only ordered 2 appetizers, the dip and the flatbread. The dip was fine but the flatbread was like cat food on burnt toast. Oh and don't bother ordering a tea, I saw them serving bottles of gold peak tea, can't even brew tea. I do not recommend this spot unless you are okay with feeling like a burden and eating subpar food.

    The answer is...the answer. Eric R. randomly selected Answer on a list of restaurants we scrolled…read morethrough to make a reservation for on our first night in Nashville this week. It is tucked in a neighborhood in the West End, and most people were surprised we found it or had heard of it as non-locals. It is a very popular spot. We arrived 20 minutes early and snagged the last parking spot in the lot behind the restaurant. Eric R. wanted to sit outside, so we were directed to wait at the bar until a table opened up. I got the cucumber sage yuzu spritz mocktail, and Eric R. got a local amber beer. Our table was ready within 10 or 15 minutes, so we migrated to it for dinner. Our server was helpful in providing recommendations. We started with three shareables: the mussels in lemongrass serrano beer broth and grilled bread, tempura long-stemmed artichokes on Calabrian chile mascarpone, and the lamb lollipops with pearled cous cous. I tasted the lamb, and it was heavenly, like melt-in-your-mouth tender but with a lot of caramelization. That was really Eric R.'s choice so I let him eat the majority of it. I really enjoyed the mussels and the artichokes! Everything was hot and delicious. I was sipping broth with a mussel shell when the bread ran out, and the host came out with more bread for us! It was so good. We asked to see a dessert menu. Eric R. had a tough choice between carrot cake and blondie with caramel ice cream, but was steered toward the blondie and did not regret it. I asked what the house made ice cream was for the day, and it was coconut matcha with a white chocolate shell topping. That sounded so perfect, and it was AMAZING. The evening was beautiful, the restaurant was lovely, the service was fantastic, and the food was delicious! That is the answer!

I had a power dinner with a friend who is coming into my business... it was his first time eating Korean food, and Onda blew him away ! We started with a seafood pancake, which we split ...absolutely delicious ~ with a nice dipping sauce on the side Drinks from the bar were very nicely prepared Then we moved on to the best Kalbi I have ever eaten in my life and I've eaten a lot of Kalbi even in LA!!

The flavor was really well balanced! I had just the right amount of spice without being overwhelming, paired with a subtle sweetness that made it super enjoyable to keep eating. It came out on a sizzling plate, which not only kept everything hot but also added a nice touch to the presentation and overall experience. The portion size was very generous, which I always appreciate. I ended up having enough leftovers for lunch the next day, and it held up really well! The restaurant itself was clean and had a nice, comfortable atmosphere. Nothing over the top, but definitely a place you can sit down and enjoy your meal without feeling rushed. That said, the experience wasn't perfect. The side dishes were a bit limited compared to what I was expecting, especially if you're used to a wider variety. Service was also on the slower side. The staff was friendly and polite, but it did take a few attempts to get their attention when I needed a water refill or wanted a to-go box. It wasn't a dealbreaker, but it's something that could definitely be improved. Overall, I'd still recommend Onda if you're looking for flavorful Korean dishes and generous portions. Just be prepared for a more relaxed pace of service. I'd come back again, especially for that spicy pork bulgogi!
