Me and a few friends were there for one of our friends birthdays last night. Everything was perfectly fine for hours. Then out of nowhere a bouncer named “Delmar” or something of the sort, came up to my group to tell us that one of our friends (who wasn’t actively around us at the time) was cut off from drinking. However he never told that friends directly, nor did he tell either of the bartenders not to serve him. Later on in the night, the bouncer saw said friend with another drink and began threatening to “beat our asses” and was trying to take away my drink that I’d just bought myself. He continued to escalate the situation by taking off his jacket, pacing around, and continuing to threaten a few people including myself, despite talking to him very calmly trying to de-escalate the situation. Another 5-10 minutes goes by and said friend had a glass of water in front of him and the bouncer told him to leave, and I got up to leave with him. As I was walking through the door the bouncer said “I’m not a cop I’ll beat anyone’s ass”. Needless to say, none of us will ever be returning to this bar again, considering the bouncers are completely unhinged, and seem to only escalate calm situations to the point of threatening us with violence.

First time that I've ever been here. Been a long time resident and have never made the trip but got together with some friends for a lunch and got the tacos. The street tacos have way better flavor than the traditional tacos but unfortunately when the food came out they were at about room temperature. Nothing against the bartender she was taking care of the entire bar and the patron sitting at the tables and booths unfortunately the flavor was just okay in the temperature was not very good.

If you're looking for a dive bar, you've found your place. Heads up: they still allow smoking inside. Dancing, karaoke, etc in one side and a bar area with more seating on the other

Service was good but y'all desperately need a new DJ. He is extremely rude when customers ask him to play songs because for some reason if anyone doesn’t like his playlist he gets offended. I used to come to Franklin years ago and loved dancing with my girlfriends but last night it was obvious the music was the problem not the crowd
