Prima, The Gulch

I'm continuing to find my way out of my dining rut. I've been uninspired and now spoiled for choice. It's finally getting walking weather, and Mr. Ville and I had a stroll over to The Gulch for dinner.

Prima's interior is very sophisticated and doesn't feel like Nashville.  It's perfect for a date.

I had made a prior visit and had the duck the first time. My dining partner raved about the filet so I had to get it this trip and she was right.  Melted like butter!
