Great experience on recent visit to this quaint small place. Server was delightful and kind. Edamane for appetizer was divine. Pasta, salad and steak were delicious. The flourless chocolate cake was to die for as was the chocolate martini. Highly recommend! The one slice of bread cut in 2 pieces for 2 dollars was a little much, but would recommend this place and will return on our next visit!

Had a lovely dinner here! Really made for a great time in Frankin (y'all are the best!) Everything we ordered was delicious and fresh, and it's good to see strong partnerships between local farms and restaurants. Thank you to the manager, the hostesses and Steve for such wonderful service! We look forward to coming back again.

Food was excellent . Each bite is a flavor burst in your mouth. Salad so fresh crisp. Service was excellent. Though we would not recommend the ice tea. It tasted like it was brewed through a coffee maker. The overall dining experience was wonderful. We would recommend this Restaurant to all.

Excellent service by Christa. She suggested several options which were spot on. Food very good. Desserts were excellent. Wine apparently excellent since one of our party ordered a case of the rose'. We will return.

Arrived 30 min prior to closing but readily welcomed. Staff were professional and attentive. Nash did a great job making recommendations and conveying our special requests to kitchen. Food was all “good”. The steak had minimal seasoning and was cooked to requested degree. The Cajun pasta was a nice large serving but being from E TX (close to true Cajun country) … it lacked cajun flavor. Although, it did taste good and am looking forward to the leftovers tomorrow. The fried grit cake, sautéed green beans and salads were VERY good. Wine pour appeared a bit on the conservative side. The restaurant and restrooms were impeccably clean. We will return and try different menu items. With tip - our bill was slightly over $100.
