Editorial Review for Virago – by Jonathan Flax
In Short
The ultra-trendy Virago is part sushi bar, part late-night drink destination and part upscale restaurant. The middle room, with its cozy S-shaped bar, is a see-and-be-seen locale; the dark-blue walls and nouveau lighting in the rear dining room lend plenty of atmosphere. Seafood reigns supreme among the entrees, featuring the always-in-demand honey-banana grouper, the sesame-seared mahi mahi with sweet potatoes and tropical fruit salsa, and the seared scallops served over crab.

very good food and service was good. the bar area was way too small so you felt cramped waiting on the rest of your friends to show up.

Eww- I just ate here after hearing it was a "trendy" place with good eye candy. Not so. Everyone there is trying WAY to hard! Where were all the "hot" people? I just saw really desperate, old (30's) guys who were trying so hard to look like they had money. Go here if you want to talk to the lamest guys in nashville. The sushi is okay, but the drinks are so weak! Don't waste your best dress on this place!
Pros: decor
Cons: all the pretenders at the bar
