This is a superb restaurant! It was featured on the Food Network show "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives." I went for dinner and it did not disappoint. The food is very tasty!! Try the char-grilled oysters or the fried pickles or the fried green tomatoes or the brisket Reuben or the shrimp and grits. All are delicious. They have a good selection of beers, including some tasty ales. The service was very prompt and friendly. They have a great music play list. The prices are reasonable. If you are anywhere close to Nashville, then definitely take a detour to the historic center of Franklin (south) to enjoy this restaurant. You will not be disappointed.
Had a great experience with I believe here name is kennely? Sorry if I butchered it. Met up with some friends for a bit before work. Got my drinks fast and felt like the food was even faster. Great service and delicious food. The crab Parm fries are everything and more!!! Got the PO boy remix and it was delicious. They have happy hour specials such as the $5 pickle chips which were a necessity. They have bar seating, window seats and tables. I will definitely be coming back and I don't even live there.
I've been to this location a few times and it never disappoints. The food is amazing. The shrimp po-boy is my favorite and they nail it every time. Definitely a must go in Franklin.
