"Wonderful Experience!!!!!" by thatguy875
February 15, 2010 - I have eaten at this restaurant several times and every time it's like the food gets even better. My favorite is the chicken alfredo. It's absolutely wonderful!
The owners are great people who seem to genuinely care about their customers. The staff is wonderful. You're seated as soon as you come through the door and your food is on your table before you know it. We're usually done eating within an hour, but we like the atmosphere so much that we'll stay and talk for hours.
I really suggest that everyone should give this place a try.
"Really Enjoyed"by Karen
January 15, 2010 - Handmade ravioli was wonderful! Fettuccine Alfredo was awesome, just like my Grandmother would make when I was a kid, and her recipe has been passed down for generations.
The server was attentive and very pleasant. Warm and cozy atmoshere, love all the fireplaces.
Its nice having such quality italian food in Lebanon and not having to drive to Nashville for a lovely meal.
"Oh WOW" by Spiral
January 06, 2010 - Really likes it - Pesto has THE best pizza in town. 1 had 4 cheese and 1 had spinach and mushroom pizza. Tasted amazing!
Friends had panini. Great! so full of flavor and so fresh. we have been here a lot and it's fast becoming our favorite place to eat. some areas to work on (like time it takes to pay) but that happens when your new and training staff. but the food is wonderful. staff very freindly and helpful.
"Each time I've been I've tried panini sandwiches. My first visit I had the Italian BLT ($7.99), which is made of pancetta (where on earth do they get pancetta in Lebanon?), arugula, and fresh local tomatoes (yellow on the day I visited). The sandwich is made with focaccia bread and spread with a fantastically delicious layer of pesto and balsamic vinegar glaze. I ordered my sandwich with the side of pasta salad (although you can get chips if you prefer). I liked the pasta salad alot; it was very flavorful, with nice olives in it. I would go back again just to have this sandwich, I thought it so good. On another visit I had the Olive and Genoa Salami panini ($6.99), which was also very good, although I prefer the BLT"
"An evening out" It's great to have a "restaurant" to go to in town. Pesto has provided a quality experience in Italian food. Their hospitality and service are excellent and the bill of fare while modest is well prepared and timely served. This is the type of restaurant Lebanon needs more of, we hope it will continue its successful contribution to the cities dining public.-
"Best Italian food ever. We ate at Pesto tonight and the food was like I was in a little old Italian woman's kitchen. They had excellent use of herbs in each dish, the bread was fresh, and the portions were huge. I can't believe Lebanon had something that good. I was so impressed. My husband had Fettucine Alfredo - and it was the best we had ever had out, My son had the Spaghetti and it was great, I had the Sage and Veal Ravoili and it was like my taste buds went to heaven. WOW, SUPER WOW, and thank you!"
"The way-above-average lasagna is a great price and one of my favorites... as well as the veg ravioli on a bead of the best spinach I've had in Middle TN (a teasing amount... would make a great side dish)."
"YUM! Quality homemade food with fresh ingredients and an authentic style. I thought I was going to need a ride home. I was sedated!"
"Finally! Delicious Italian food in Lebanon! I can't wait to go back! The spinach and portabella pizza was fantastic. I also tried the meatballs which were so yummy. Pesto has a nice "eating at mom's house" kind of feel to it. Note: it is BYObeer/wine - very cool."
