“We had such a fantastic experience at Culinary Dropout! The food was excellent—the burger was spot-on, and the steak and fries were cooked perfectly—and the Tijuana Spa Water cocktail was amazing. But what truly made our visit unforgettable was our waitress, Kendall. She was an absolute ray of sunshine. Her energy was warm, genuine, and uplifting, and she went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. What impressed us even more was watching her interact with every table around us with the same intentional care and enthusiasm. It wasn’t just great service—it’s clearly who she is. Kendall truly brightened our day, and because of her (and the incredible food and drinks), we can’t wait to come back.“

“My wife and I celebrated our 24th anniversary with dinner at Cork & Cow. Everything, EVERYTHING was absolutely perfect. Our reservation was for 9pm. We walked in at 8:45 and were seated immediately. Mike, our server, was quick to greet us and made excellent suggestions. I already knew I wanted the bone-in ribeye, but I wasn't settled on an appetizer. Mike suggested the pork belly: ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. My wife ordered the filet. Both steaks were well-seasoned and cooked perfectly. Dessert didn't seem likely, since I was starting to feel full, but I overheard another server mention a chocolate torte that had peanut butter mousse, so. . . O. M. G. As if the food and service weren't good enough, we were back in our hotel room by 9:45.“

“Fantastic service and fantastic food ❤️. We will be back ❤️. Love the Baja sauce ❤️. All the food was great ❤️. Thank you 🙏“

“After a day of soccer, we found Scout's down the street from the fields. It's located in a cute town square area with a pond, swings, and grassy area for kids to play. We had a large group of 9 and they seated us right away. We chose to sit on the patio to enjoy the warm afternoon sun and breeze. It's a dog-friendly spot, and our kids loved petting the other guests' dogs (asking for permission of course). The inside is cute as well, but it would have been a little crowded with our larger party. But I could imagine hanging out with friends at the bar or on a date night with my wife. Scout's has a large and diverse menu, so everyone was able to order something to their taste. My son had a smash burger and appetizer of fries, cheese curds, poutine and bacon, my daughter had chicken tenders and Mac N Cheese, I had pizza, and my wife ordered taquitos. They also have a full bar and several craft beers to choose from. I had the Good People IPA, which is one of my faves. The service was excellent. Our server, Lauren, was friendly and attentive. Grabbed empty plates quickly, refilled waters & sodas without asking, and was ready to bring us the next round at just the right time.“

“BrickTop's Cool Springs has a wide range of really good food at affordable prices. The entire staff from the top down are all amazing. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible and very welcoming. Some of my favorites dishes are the fish tacos, grilled shrimp tacos, and so many other dishes at BrickTop's. The avocado toast and the donuts that are only served for Sunday Brunch are a favorite as well.“

“Wish I knew about this restaurant sooner! It is kind of a hole in the wall Chinese restaurant. They have the best Chinese takeout and you get so much food for how cheap it is here. The chicken basil fried rice is one of my favorites, but everything I’ve tried here has been great. It is family owned and ran and you can tell they care about their customers. Jenny is the sweetest and always remembers me and my order!!“

“Great food and service! We had a party of 13 women for brunch last weekend. The food was delicious and service was fantastic. I honestly expected it to be slow due to the group size but our waitress had it under control!“

“Love this place! My husband and I were greeted as soon as we entered the door with the biggest smile of a Chef...you can watch your order being made~this man has skills! Fresh out of the oven came out sausage roll and cheese stromboli. THESE WERE FANTASTIC! If you want NY style eats, THIS is the place to be! Thank you for your hospitality and fab eats ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“The best part of this experience were the servers. I made reservations but accidentally on the wrong day. The hostess was so kind about it. I wish I got her name. She had brown hair and worked the evening shift June 26 th. She was very professional. My waitress was exceptional, her name was Delaney. She had the kindness you find on an expensive cruise ship or fine dining. The extra little things I asked for she served with joy, not acting the least bit inconvenienced. She was amazing, simply the best.“

“Love the cause! Thank you“

“A Must-Visit in Franklin, TN – Jeni’s is Simply Unforgettable!

If you have never been to Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams in Franklin, Tennessee, put it on your list immediately. The flavors are unlike anything you will find at a typical ice cream shop, bold, creative, and made with real, thoughtful ingredients that you can actually taste in every single bite.

The staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They encouraged tasting without any rush, making the whole experience feel personal and fun. The atmosphere is charming and perfect for everyone, families, kids, date nights, or simply treating yourself.

We left with big smiles and even bigger cravings to come back. Jeni’s is not just ice cream, it is an experience worth every detour!“

“I feel like something changed.... food was different....gumbo was not what I recalled and im not sure I will order it again. The whole meal was just OK. Red beans (wife has order them everything we go) said the same...something is different.... still a great lunch spot and the service is still amazing, but even my catfish was just ok.“

“Love the energy teas! �“

“I love Dover Deli! The women who work there are so nice and their options find a balance between healthy and comforting. They mostly offer classic American diner/deli options along with some Asian dishes or sides.
You can choose a tuna melt and a salad or a club sandwich with fries. They’re also fairly quick and great for a quick work lunch.“

“I have been eating at Flower Child since they opened last year in Franklin, and have loved every visit, whether it's dining in or getting my order to-go. I ate there again today with my mom, and we made a request to have an additional side of a sauce we both love. The team gave incredible service and went out of their way to clear up a confusion on a charge. They went above and beyond, and created yet another amazing experience at Flower Child. Going the extra mile for a customer will never go unnoticed - bravo to everyone there!“

“This will be my go to Chinese restaurant in Franklin. Exactly what I was looking for. Crab rangoons were very good, and they have crab in them. I've been noticing some places that just serve cream cheese rangoons lately. The wanton soup hit the spot and chicken with broccoli also very good. Good sized portion as well. I could go back and order again right now. Good stuff.“

“Enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Service was excellent.“

“So excited that you are open!! The coffee and pasties are outstanding!!“

The closest you’ll get to a Los Angeles taco run without leaving Middle Tennessee.“
