This is my go-to restaurant. I would say probably my favorite in Franklin. The people are always friendly, the food is always good.. it's a good value and there's always enough to take home for a second meal.
This has quickly become my favorite place to eat in Franklin. There isn't another salad in town that comes close to their mixed berry salad with grilled chicken. The brisket was superb! The desserts look good, but I haven't tried any yet. They only offer it on Thursdays and sometimes Fridays, so make sure you get there on one of those days. The only thing I don't like is that they have short hours. I think they close around 2 some days and aren't open on the weekends at all.
The food was delicious! But we are most grateful for the help they provided with the charcuterie appetizer we were struggling to get out in time. Thank you so much for traveling to cater our daughter’s wedding! You did a beautiful job!
