Culaccino Italian Restaurant + Bar

Culaccino  Italian Restaurant + Bar is the place to go for those in search of an authentic Italian culinary experience. It is one of the best Italian restaurants in Franklin, TN. Founded by an executive chef, Frank Pullara, Culaccino has become Franklin’s downtown local gems for true authentic cuisine. With over twenty years of culinary experience, Pullara relocated from Naples, FL to Middle Tennessee in 2020 to establish Culaccino– a great place to celebrate heartfelt memories, food, and family.

Our signature dishes such as wood-fired pizzas and housemade pastas alongside recipes inspired by our founder’s childhood memories in the kitchen form part of our Culaccino’s menu. In addition, our global wine list and craft cocktails provide a great dining experience, while our outdoor firepit and bar provide ample space for parties of any type or size, whether you are visiting for a casual dinner or a special occasion.

Culaccino is an Italian word that means “lasting impression”, which explains why our cozy, welcoming atmosphere and great cuisine will leave a huge mark on our guests.
