“Tried the new grilled cheese burger with tomato soup and the crispy pickle fries. Burger was very salty but the soup was delicious. Pickle fries came out very hot but were good with the dipping sauce, just wish there was more. Service was fantastic. Wasn't super busy for lunch. It's an Applebee's. If you like Applebee's, you'll like it.“

“5 Stars! We've heard of this little place (wth a 4.7 rating), so we did an early dinner. It was the best fish I've had in years! It was more than worth the 35 minute drive to Columbus.“

“Ate here on Saturday 9-6-25 and it was awesome! Staff couldnt have been better and the food was excellent! Well done ! Little bit of a drive for us but well worth it!“

“This eatery is a fun find! Great views of the runways, eclectic local brunch fare, and a genuinely friendly waitress. I recommend the BLTA, the cinnamon roll, and the Indiana fried biscuits (but you'll need at least 2 people to eat them all!) all fresh and good! Plan to come early or have a wait on weekends because it is VERY popular! :-)“

“Delicious! We were just driving through and thought we'd take a chance on this breakfast cafe.This was the best breakfast we've had from any restaurant. I had the quiche and my husband had the farmers breakfast...so good! It was such a pleasant environment. Service was top notch! We may be driving an hour and a half just for breakfast in the future!“

“Theo's is one of my favorites. Whether its on the truck or in the restaurant you're guaranteed to get flavor!“

“Wow this place is one of the best places out there to eat. We had their Breakfast called the Brandy, and wow it was really good. 100% better than the old Tom's that was there. Our family has found a good place to eat! 5 Stars all the way.“

“I don’t really have anything bad to say because our server and food were both great. However, I went today with a group of about a dozen elderly ladies who go out to eat every Thursday, and the server she was going to give us each a “card“ and never did even though we ask about it a couple of times before we left. I’m assuming it was some kind of card where you collect boats for eating at Applebee’s. We’re old, so we forget a lot of things too, but I wondered if there’s anyway I can get the card sent to me that she was talking about?“

“This is a very popular place to eat in downtown Franklin. The food and service is excellent. A few of us tried their breaded tenderloin sandwiches because we heard they were great and they did not disappoint! I like the indoor and covered outdoor seating options.“

“We had a GREAT experience passing through on our way home to tennessee. Very clean, fast, and friendly. The owner works as hard as her staff.“

“Not as good as usual given apparent kitchen staffing issues, but review is really prompted by wondering how anyone can choose or tolerate those cold white spot lights above the bar? My eyes can’t handle that. Ok for an operating room, but not a restaurant.“

“Great food and excellent service!“

“We went to Captain D's last night. It is always so clean. The staff provide amazing customer service. A very polite young man waited on us thru the drive thru and was simply the best. In addition, the lady that manages the place has been there forever. She is constantly walking around and checking on customers. She is an asset!“

“Amazing, I can’t wait to come back to Waffle House next year!“

“I only recommend this place because of the cook Jeff. He walked in and did more work in 10 minutes then all of the other staff combined! Put him in charge of that place! The manager only cared about testing the staff on the menu when she should have cared about clearing the tables for the next customers.“

“I can’t believe I’ve never visited this Chili's location before—what a hidden gem! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was wonderful and welcoming.
​The food was absolutely phenomenal. We ordered the fajitas, and they arrived sizzling, perfectly seasoned, and incredibly fresh. But the experience wasn't just about the food; the service was top-tier. Our server was attentive and professional, ensuring our drinks never went low—we never even had to ask for a refill!
​It’s rare to find a spot that hits the mark on both quality and hospitality so consistently. We will definitely be returning to this location. If you’re looking for a great meal and a seamless dining experience, this is the place to go!“

“Excellent food and service.“

“Keith was my server and he is an absolute pleasure! He did everything right, “Old School” from greeting me, thru checking in on me, clearing my dishes, and thanking me! I wish they had more employees to help them, so if you need a job, and have a work ethic like Keith, go apply. You won’t be disappointed, working with this team of Rockstars! 🎉🙏🌈“

“If you haven't been here lately, you should give it a try! This Columbus Indiana location is now under New Management and locally owned and operated. It's one of the first franchised stores. It's cleaner, better staffed, and trying everyday to put the customer first!“
