Taste of Nashville, Issue 17

One of the coolest apps we've discovered for the iPhone is ScoutMob. ScoutMob is an app that works with local companies in your city to bring your deals on anything from clothing to food. Most deals are 50% off your bill, but sometimes there's a 100% off coupon to use. Because Brandon and I are budget conscious at this point in our lives, we LOVE the ScoutMob app. We often use it to choose where our date nights will be. Recently, we had a double date with our friends, Nicole and J.L., at Caesar's Italian Restaurant in downtown Nashville. Under any other circumstance, we probably wouldn't have known about this restaurant, but there was a 50% off special on ScoutMob, so bon appetit! 

Caesar's was practically a ghost town when we dined-in. Despite the lack of patrons, the service was good and the staff was amiable. The food...well, the food wasn't anything special, but it wasn't terrible. 

We assumed that Caesar's probably draws a lunch crowd due to it's location, and that this was the reason for it being so desolate. Another reason for this is that Caesar's just opened in January of this year. Maybe Nashvillians just don't know about this restaurant yet. 

 

During our visit, I ordered a veggie pizza and Brandon ordered his staple meal, chicken parmesan. As mentioned above, our meals were not amazing, but they were affordable. With our coupon, our bill was under $15 and that included tip. Considering the price of our meal, we couldn't expect much more from the taste. 

I think Caesar's has a bit of work to do before we recommend it to friends. I would, however, recommend it to the college students I work with - it fits their budget and they often don't have high standards for their dining out experiences. :) I'm happy we tried it, but it won't make our list of go-to restaurants anytime soon. Until next time, that's all for our latest Taste of Nashville.
