This was by far THE best restaurant I’ve ever been to! The ambiance, the food, the service was impeccable to say the least! It can be for all occasions of romantic, celebrations, or just a night out! I truly felt like i was out of town! The managers came over and introduced themselves and we talked and laughed. Justin Collins was out server and he was very knowledgeable about the menu. I was not disappointed and will be hosting a dinner there in a week or so! If your looking for different then this will pass your expectations of the average dinner����
Excellent place for dinner! I came here for my Anniversary/ Engagement celebration! The staff was the absolute best! They made our night an unforgettable experience! The food was absolutely amazing! We had the gnocchi as a starter with cocktails and then the steak and prime rib! It was all absolutely amazing! Definitely plan on coming back in the future!
I just got back from getting engaged here. The experience was amazing. Our waiter, Justin was knowledgeable and very helpful. Steve was instrumental in surprising my now fiancé. I highly recommend Sinema for every reason.
Everything was great.. The atmosphere, the service, the food, drinks, and the dessert. We had the cheese plate and a few other appetizers, which all were great. The walnut salad was so good. The swordfish was amazing! As full as I was, I couldn't resist the dessert with the churro's.. so delicious!
One of the best Restraurants in Nashville. The atmosphere, food, $ service was excellent! Our waitress was fabulous!
Had brunch here yesterday for the first time with some girlfriends and loved our experience! Our server was prompt in keeping our glasses full and he did an excellent job at explaining how everything works for the buffet since that's the option we chose! Will definitely be back
Went there for my son's 21st birthday. Amazing food and service. Everything was perfect for a special night. The food is amazing, we had the Burger, the Scallops, and the short ribs. Duck fritters for appetizers, and an awesome dessert called simply "Chocolate " for dessert. Highly recommend.
What a unique location! It’s an old movie theater… cinema that has been converted to a restaurant!! They play old movies (without volume) throughout the restaurant. There are cozy dining spaces and a couple great bars. And what a selection of bourbons! There were like a couple hundred! There was a wide variety in the menu. I really enjoyed the ravioli starter I had but the scallops were okay. I was expecting much larger scallops. There was so much orzo on the place that it really lessened the scallops which should have been the feature. Overall it was a good meal
Great experience! The old cinema was beautifully restored. The atmosphere is modern yet classy. The service was friendly and fast. The food was excellent. I loved the shrimp and grits. They have a large private room that holds 20 people.
This was my first time visiting Sinema and it was great. The outside looks exactly like a theatre the aesthetics is nice. Lights are dim gives it a nice romantic feel. Reservations are highly recommended The drinks and food are unlimited which was new to me. I enjoyed the mimosas!!! I was even able to take the bottle w me we didn’t finish. The bartender was very nice and accommodated me and my friend to the best of his ability. Highly recommend
The brunch and mimosa special is a must try. Definitely get reservations and don’t eat before going. Brunch is family style and so many different options. Fried chicken, biscuits and gravy, grits were some of my favorite. Something for everyone.
Walk into this historical gem with personable staff and impeccable culinary presentations.
Parking: There's a rush home in this region but has access
Kids: pldwr teenagers to adults, dining options are not aligned to younger palate.
Cocktails: Strong variety, well diverse to satisfy group tastes. Extensive bourbon/whiskey options. One of few places you can sample thr spectrum of offerings.
Food: The dining here is as good as any Michelin rated locations. We took the 30 minute ride from the Gaylord and so glad we made the journey. Their Wolf fish, Duck fritters, Brussels were fantastic. Bread is made in house and worth it. Pur entire party left with smiles.
Conclusion: This is an off beaten path gem worth the trip. Would not hesitate to return.
The wife and I wanted to do something different for our 26th wedding anniversary so she did a Google search for restaurants for anniversaries in Nashville and Sinema popped up and looked really interesting. We decided to come Sinema instead of The Palm and we do not regret that decision at all. Q, Chef Kyle, and Rebecca rolled out the red carpet for us and gave us an anniversary dinner to remember with the wine pairing 5 course dinner. Thank you Team Sinema for giving us a very enjoyable night, if I could give 10 stars I would. If your want a special night out come to Sinema, ask for Q, and tell them John sent you. PS - the music play list is great, DJ Q spins the hits!
Came here for brunch from Florida for our friends birthday - was so worth it! The grits and the cinnamon roll pancakes is my personal favorite but everything else on the menu was good too - everyone at the table enjoyed their food. At one point we had to speak to the manager - our waitress forgot to tell us it was last call for bottomless mimosas - and he was very accommodating! Bottomless brunch was really bottomless LOL! They did a great job at restoring the place as well. The decor, ambience, and pictures everywhere is beautiful! Even the ladies room was beautiful! Just the cutest place!
Amazing! We opted for the tasting Menu, which was fantastic. The Chef was accommodating of my allergy issues and came up with perfect alternatives. The combinations and depth of flavor were impeccable. Our Server Zoe was a delight and the atmosphere was eclectic, comfortable and well balanced with current and classic music selections that were perfect for ambiance rather than focus. A talented Chef, in a creative setting and I watched a conscientious owner who’s eye for detail was very apparent. A meal we will remember for a long time and will return
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Sinema, and I cannot recommend it enough! From the moment we entered the restaurant, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism. The amazing service was evident throughout the entire evening, and I have to give a special shout-out to our server, Patrick (nice hair style). He was attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to make our experience memorable.
The food at Sinema is nothing short of fantastic! The black bass and burger are a must-try. Both dishes were cooked to perfection, with a balance of flavors and texture that tantalized our taste buds. The presentation was also impressive, which only added to the establishment's overall ambiance.
In summary, Sinema is a must-visit restaurant for its excellent service, mouthwatering dishes, and unforgettable atmosphere. I wholeheartedly recommend you give it a try, and don't forget to ask for Patrick!
We came to celebrate my friend's educational accomplishment. There were 7 of us. We made a reservation prior through open table and were seated promptly. The decor is movie themed hence the play on words, Sinema. Recognizable framed icons are scattered throughout the entire space. The waiter was very knowledgeable about the menu and recommended several options but most of all the tasting menu. So we ordered the tasting menu which allows you to try their most popular dishes and ends with a dessert. The food was delicious and elegantly presented. The atmosphere was lively and upbeat. The music was pleasant but not overwhelming and I caught myself tapping my feet and bobbing my head several times. Check out the ladies room. It is a selfie-taker's dream. The lighting is absolutely perfect! If you want a place for a special occasion, Sinema is the place to go!
Amy at Sinema made our first experience the best that everyone would like to receive from a food establishment. Very in tuned with her customers and was kind enough to take pictures for us. The food was very well cooked and delicious, I really like the pancakes and chicken had great flavor, I plan to revisit this place, hope to see you there.
Josh and Julio made me feel like an old friend. Traveling as a solo female can be a bit isolating at times, but these dudes are the joint. Also..the Buffalo Chase old fashions are dope. Highly recommend chilling at the bar. I did not eat, but the food presentation looked phenom.
Food was phenomenal. Wine pairings with the 5 course meal were superb. Women's bathroom had all the things needed for a night out. The service or the actual meal preparing took longer than anticipated. Parking was not ideal. Over all experience was great, with craft cocktails to boot.
Went back and still outstanding .. by far the best breakfast in Nashville this was our first time at Sinema and we were very impressed.. we had reservations set up and a nice room .
They just kept on bringing food .. what a breakfast !! 😋 I was so full I didn't want to see food all day .
.everything was so good ..please make reservations before hand and enjoy the feast .
Great job..
Amazing black owned establishment! As a visitor from ATL, this met any and all expectations for the weekend buffet brunch! They bring out different rounds of food for one price during brunch and anything you want more or less of during brunch then they accommodate your desires! Instead of lining up for food like a regular buffet, they bring the food and alcohol to you! We did bottomless brunch and the bottomless mimosas! Worth every penny and such an amazing experience for me as a visitor from ATL to Nashville for the first time! Highly recommend this black owned business!
My wife and I’s brunch experience at Sinema was wonderful. The food, the atmosphere, and the service were all fantastic. We were able to sample all the brunch offerings - sweet and savory. Our favorite was the Chilaquiles. Also, you definitely get your money’s worth.
All of the food was familiar, not overly complicated yet each dish was perfected even the straight-up scrambled eggs.
Since our reservations were made 3 weeks in advanced and it is bottomless, I expected the restaurant to be a zoo. But, the vibe was super chill and relaxed. We didn’t feel rushed to leave, and instead we could enjoy our food and drinks is a cozy atmosphere. The decor is chic and makes me feel like I’m at the Oscars in the 60s.
Overall, our experience at Sinema exemplified the total package of dining.
The bottomless brunch menu was absolutely delicious and well worth the price. Ambience is lovely with the vintage theater theme. Service was great, every staff member we encountered was super friendly. We will definitely be returning!
