It is located in the Hilton hotel. We didn't know that. But that wasn't a problem, the setting was very romantic. The food however was far overpriced and mediocre.

We were part of a large group for dinner. It was a preset menu. We had ricotta meatballs and bruschetta. Both were good. Caesar and house salads were unique. We had entree choices. I had the shrimp which was good. Filets were delicious and enjoyed...thoroughly. My husband had veal and enjoyed that. Family style of sides were served. Lemonicello cake and chocolate torte for dessert. These were okay. Service was attentive and friendly.More

This was by far the best restaurant I have ever eaten at in my life! The service was incredible and the food was absolutely delicious. It is by far the best Italian cuisine around. I've eaten all over the world, including many places in Italy...and this place still takes the cake. The vibe of the place was very pleasant and chill. And I will 100% be going back the next time I'm in Nashville.More

We were seated quickly for dinner on a Friday night without reservations. Food was superb! Our table ordered pizza, pasta, scallops, and lamb - all of which were very good. Scallops were probably the best I’ve ever eaten. My only criticism would be the wait...for our bill - we waited at least 20 minutes for our bill after our meal was complete and plates had been cleared from the table.More

Il Muino is still our favorite! Melissa and Rinaldo have been there since they opened in 2015. We always get a great meal and feel like we are visiting with family. We love the pizza, salads, fish, chicken parm, and of course pasta. Gelato is...always a nice ending to a great meal. Service is always professional and friendly. Melissa is our favorite server and has been since they opened. Chocolate martini still good even though my favorite bartender has moved on. We always look forward to going to Il Mulino and have never been disappointed in all the years they have been open. Looking forward to another 8+ years of memorable, wonderful dining!More

We celebrated valentines dinner here. I loved it. It's luxurious, elegant, and food is super tasty. The cocktails are amazing. I had all the rum based ones ( spiced sangria and pineapple upside down) and the waiter made a another customized drink that was super...alcohol heavy, the pizza (margarita) was amazing. Thin crust and juicy. Caprese was amazing, ravioli and fettuccini was amazing. Didn't have space for dessert so took it home. It was also good.

I had a last minute small ( 16) people reception and it was wonderful. Kimberly Soto the banquet manager was fantastic!! Helpful ,accommodating and always returned my emails quickly. The food was excellent, and this is coming from New York Italian. The staff members Daniel...and Trent were on it and were constantly taking care of my guest needs and drinks. I have also been to this restaurant with just my husband and friends as well. Can't say enough about Il Mulino.

Diamond Hilton members were referred here as this restaurant is attached to the hotel. Walked over on a rainy night. The bar was full due to children sitting there. My husband and I wanted to order drinks and appetizers but since the bar was full...we requested a table. We were denied a table. Since we’re not going to order a full meal they would not seat us. The hostess was rude and did not want to serve us. Disappointed and frustrated We went to hotel lobby bar and spent $150 on drinks and apps there.More
