    I was really looking forward to giving this restaurant a high rating, based on what I read. Most of the food we ate was very good, especially the vegetables and the waitress was exceptional. However, the pulled pork on the buffet tasted like it has been frozen and warmed up again. The texture was like cork and it had a bland taste. I tried to mask it with BBQ sauce, but an hour later had to eat a mint to get the taste out of my mouth. I had considered asking if I could discard it and try the beef or chicken, but when I tasted the beef it had a similar texture. But, it had more tastes. The atmosphere was hot and cramped. There are two isles to walk through the restaurant with the buffet in the middle. Two people can hardly pass in the isles and the backs of people's chairs are sticking out in the isle. The plates are very small. If you are even slightly claustrophobic, don't go there.

    One of Franklin's better kept secrets, probably because of their lunch-only hours. Unlike most wannabe home-cooking-style restaurants, this place IS homestyle and the food is very much above average. If you're in your 40s-50s, the food WILL remind you of mom's cooking.

    We really enjoyed our meal! The country cooking buffet was awesome too say the least! The service was fast and very friendly. The atmosphere was wonderful. We may be found our new Sunday lunch location.

    Excellent small town restaurant in the middle of Franklin North Carolina. You can order off the menu or do the buffet. The buffet is always fresh and very good. Very attentive and professional wait staff. I would highly recommend stopping here for lunch.
