I had dinner here with a friend several weeks ago. I was skeptical because the reviews I had read were kinda mixed. I'm so glad we went because our dinner was wonderful. It wasn't too crowded and the service was great. We started with the southern fried pimento cheese balls and they were to die for. My friend ordered the Chicken Alfredo. I will probably order that next time bc it was very good. I had the Salmon Gnocchi and it was perfect. I ordered the white chocolate raspberry cheesecake for desert. Amazing!!! Definitely give it a try next time you are in Franklin.
Wonderful relaxed upscale dining experience.
Food was excellent. I had the lamb rack which was amazingly tender and rich in flavor with a fire sear on the outside. Potatoes were filling and smooth and the veggies added a palate refresh. Probably the best lamb I've had honestly.
My friends had fillet mignon which was great and had a nice rich heavier sauce on it and similar, but subdued, searing as my lamb. Local trout, excellent flavor and paired well with wild rice, not as heavy on the stomach which is nice, only critique was that it was a touch dry otherwise delicious. The burger had good texture and flavor though with the other more exciting dishes available it was a bit overshadowed.
Decor/atmosphere had a rich but inviting feel. Service was good. Pricing was reasonable, burger in high 10s, fish in high 20s, lamb in mid 30s, fillet in mid 40s. Overall a highly recommended stop for a more upscale experience in town.
I took my mom out on a girl's day, and we thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. the weather was nice, so we chose the outdoor patio, which filled up while we were there. Our server, Mei, handled everything very well, and was very sweet.
We ordered the pomegranate brussel sprouts appetizer, the fennel Caesar salad, tomato bisque, and the bumpkin burger. Presentation and taste were both excellent.
Overall, it was a good experience, with great atmosphere. Ask for Mei, she is awesome.
Restaurant looks nice and spacious inside with covered corner outdoor seatings. Food is pretty good but vegetable used to garnish the dishes was not very fresh. Service was also very good although the waitress brought a wrong appetizer at first and then she offered to take off the appetizer from our bill. We appreciated this attitude very much.
absolutely incredible experience. we went there on father's day and it was packed. but the staff was on top of it and we were quickly seated in the very nice outdoor patio. our server was great, and in spite of the rush we didn't want for anything.
the food was... incredible. I had the grilled rack of lamb with fingerling potatoes, which was just unreal. I'd recommend this place to anyone, any time.
I will say that this restaurant is exactly what it purports to be: a trendy pub-restaurant. The food was good, the service a little spotty once we decided to only have an appetizer, and the craft beer and cider selection was more limited than I thought when we walked in the door.
Decor was well appointed and clean.
Good local farm to table food, nice ambience, and friendly, helpful service!
Especially recommend the pimento cheese appetizer... the short ribs entree is fantastic... and the carrot cake for dessert was delicious, moist, tasty - and the candied carrot chips area a delicious, crunchy touch. The selection of primarily local beers on tap is good too, along with a decent wine list and full bar.
Definitely a recommended stop in the area!
Delicious meal at a beautiful restaurant! Our waitress was incredibly attentive. I ordered the salmon dish and would eat that many times over! My husband had the lamb chops and they were tender and scrumptious.
This restaurant a winner. Small but nice menu. Prices are excellent. The restaurant is immaculate & saw they received an "A" on their recent health inspection. They have a full bar and numerous specials on various days of the week. I had their chicken salad with almonds, cranberries & celery. Not your usually this was grilled - yum. Other items delicious. Franklin lucky to have this restaurant. Great out door seating.
Great restaurant with a full bar. Seating area is spacious, atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. We especially liked the high backs on the booths for extra privacy. We had the fried pimento cheese appetizer and lunch salads. Both were very tasty. Sever was polite and efficient.
