“We had a party of 12. We waited 1 hour 15 min to be seated. Four of us got our meal right away, the 11 of us had to wait 1 hour for their meal to be served. 1 didn't get her meal until after the 11 finished eating and she opted to get her meal to go as to not make the rest of us wait for her to eat. Absolutely worst service ever. Usually we get great service here so not sure what happened on this day.Vegetarian options: Carrots“

“I found this gem of a restaurant via a Reddit thread discussing the best food in Murfreesboro.I brought my daddy here for a late lunch/early dinner today and we were beyond pleased with our decision to try Jeff’s out!I love the feel of the place— very tidy and clean, very homey. They have beautiful family photos in the space and cute decor that all communicate that this is a family establishment, which I love. There is power in the dollar and I believe fully that where you choose to spend your money says something about you. Why go to a chain restaurant when you can support a family-owned, local business like Jeff’s?We were greeted heartily by the kind people working in the front of house. You can’t find service like this anywhere anymore! I love feeling like I’m entering someone’s home, having a meal prepared by loving hands.We both got the chicken and dressing with gravy and it was fabulous. I had spinach and cabbage, both absolutely delicious. My dad said his sides— pintos and sweet potatoes— were wonderful also, and that the sweet tea was amazing!And y’all, let me not forget to talk about their BREAD. My dad got the flapjack and said it was just stellar, that he’s never had anything like it. I tried a homemade yeast roll and found it to be just perfect. When I tell you I will drive the 40 miles from my home just for this food, I am not lying!Thank you, Jeff’s! We had a great time with y’all today.Parking: Ample parking outside the building. Wonderful location.“

“What an amazing hidden gem. We found this great little take out eatery, and this home cooking was mouth watering. The Peach Cobbler and Chocolate Chess Pie were the best way to end this meal. Home cooked meals were just like my Mawmaw's used to make. If you are ever in Murfreesboro and want something different for lunch or dinner to take back with you, this is the place! We will be back.“

“I can’t say enough about this place! I’m a huge fan of PARTY FOUL! Hands down the BEST Fried Chicken I have ever had! I was visiting friends for a few days and made it in twice because I loved it so much! I’m making my way through the menu and I’ve loved every thing I’ve ordered so far! Wish there was one where I live in San Diego/Carlsbad, California area! (Hint hint)The staff is fabulous! Shoutout to Sarah! You are a gem! I couldn’t ask for better service and hospitality! I also had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Austin! What a fabulous human being. He took the time to hang out and chat. Thank Austin & Sarah for making my experience memorable.Another awesome thing about Party Fowl, they really support their local community and open up for soccer/football fans to watch matches. I can’t wait to come back and watch a Liverpool match there too. They even have my supporters club scarf hanging in the bar! So there’s a little piece of “home” in there.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️YNWAAK“

Promote that guy to Senior Staff Trainer. What an awesome experience! I think we'll actually stop here again on our next road trip in hopes of checking in with Jordan.“

Soul Murfreesboro Southern • $
2804 S Rutherford Blvd, Murfreesboro

“We had an excellent time there. Food was good and service was great. The only problem is that we were charged an entertainment fee of 18% on our bill. I strongly believe this should be stated to the customer upfront. The other problem with the fee is that we ran two separate tabs and the first tab there wasn't any entertainment. We spoke to the manager and she said the fee starts when they open in the morning. I don't understand how that is a good business practice. I enjoyed Soul and the Band, but they need to change this.“

“Food was good but I don't think they are making as much of the food in restaurant as they used to. Service was good and restaurant appeared to be clean and well run. I did hear the server tell a group the machine they use to make fried chicken was not working so they couldn't make that.“
