Ann's has been in my radar for years. The little cafe off the Square is always packed with locals…read more Ann's claims to be the oldest restaurant in Franklin, opening in 1952. The cafe is now owned by Diane, Ann's daughter. The tables are packed tightly together, but we were happy to get the last seats in the house. Nostalgic photos of Franklin cover the walls. The place is loud but with a great positive energy. People are small-town friendly and talk between tables as they enjoy their biscuits and gravy. We cajoled with two regulars who told funny stories. Our server, Gill, was quick to the table and friendly. He checked on us several times to see if we needed anything. The menu is a mix of traditional breakfast options, sandwiches, salads and wraps. Prices are reasonable. Food came out quickly. My husband ordered their hand breaded tenderloin with fries. The tenderloin was massive with a great browned breading, served on a Kaiser roll. The pork was tender and juicy. It was a perfect tenderloin, worthy of the Indiana Tenderloin Trail. The hand-cut fries are lightly breaded, crispy and hot. There was an up-charge for the fries, but they were so good and worth it. It was rainy outside, so I had a bowl of the daily soup - broccoli cheddar. The soup was hot, thick, creamy with lots of broccoli and cheese and stuck to my ribs. My soup was served with packs of saltines. Free street parking is available if you're lucky to grab a spot. Well worth the drive to Franklin. Ps. They are closed Saturday and Sunday!

The son of the owner informed me this location and the Martinsville location are owned by his mom…read more It has been many months since I visited the Martinsville location and their menu has really expanded to include a plethora on lunch choices in addition to an expanded breakfast menu at both locations. And he said the menu will expand again soon. Since I was by myself and he had some time, he sat down and we chatted for awhile. The seating at both restaurants, and you can call them that now since they do not just sell drinks anymore, has been greatly expanded both indoors and outside. He also told me they are working on opening a Plainfield location. I ordered my usual The Slugger on a biscuit for my bread choice (4) with sausage for my meat choice (3) and provolone for my cheese choice (5). It was superb and just how I remembered it from the other location when I was eating breakfast there several days a week about a year ago. I also ordered one Biscuit & Gravy which was excellent as well. I love small local business establishments and cooking. They always have great service and a friendly atmosphere. I parked in the public parking lot across the street since it was a Saturday and street parking was full. The restroom was clean, well stocked and had a pleasant fragrance.

She even has a menu item named after her" Peggy's Pancakes" which my son noticed right after she introduced herself. I thought that was a cute touch. The dining area has both booths and tables, and they had a fun Dalmatian fire hydrant decoration near the host/hostess stand that added character to the space. They serve Pepsi products for drinks. My son got lemonade and I just got water. I ordered the Sami, which came with country fried steak, two eggs over medium, hash browns, and two pancakes for $14.99. Peggy said that was a good choice, and my meal was tasty. The portion was filling and the pricing seemed reasonable. My son got the Big Daddy for $13.99, which came with two meats (he chose sausage and bacon), three eggs, hash browns, and two pancakes. He really enjoyed his meal and we both left completely full.

Unfortunately, there is NO BUTTER for toast or cooking. All entries are cooked in oil or a butter/margarin mix! I was hoping to get a side of vegetables or the spinach, but that is cooked in the flat iron where they use canola oil. So I could only Eat poached eggs with dry toast for $8.99. It should have been $6.00, but the waitress charged for an egg entree instead of the sides only. For me a return visit for dry toast and eggs is not worth it. If you don't mind canola oil or margarine, that have lots of interesting options.

Six ladies shared the Saganaki appetizer, a flaming Greek cheese served with warm pita bread and it was delicious! There is a salad bar or you can choose a Greek salad.

My wife and I shared a Saganaki (Opa!!) and it was pretty good. Salad bar was limited but fresh. Chicken was a bit overcooked , could use more seasoning, but the meat was very tender and delicious.

This is my second Big Wood location to visit, and overall a good experience. It's tucked away from…read morethe main drag and sits overlooking the golf course (the big, main room and connected outdoor patio both have a great view!) - but this area at least is open to the public. I was worried when we couldn't make any reservations, but we got right in - nobody was waiting, they weren't busy, but they did seem to be scrambling to find a server for us, which I thought was a little odd. After a weird start, the rest of the visit was fantastic - service was great, food was excellent, and we had a lovely time on a date night. Restrooms are on the first floor (an older review says the women's is downstairs in a creepy hallway, but this must have been renovated) and are single-occupancy and unisex, which is an interesting experience depending on who has visited before you -- this was probably the low point of the experience, that restroom could use some upkeep. Not just an unpleasant previous visitor, but structurally. For such a nice place, that part was sketchy. Definitely will be coming back overall.

My wife and I decided to stop in here for a breakfast date and we're so happy we did!…read more When you walk into this place you're immediately struck by the ambiance. It's a hybrid between a breakfast spot and a cigar lounge vibe. We digged it! After sitting down our very friendly waitress came over and took our order. We ordered the orange sunrise mocktail, a quinoa bowl, gluten free pancakes and the California club omelette. Everything was AMAZING. Not one thing was bad. The omelette was one of the best if not the best I've ever had. Stuffed FULL of all the mix ins and cheese with yummy breakfast potatoes. The star of the show was the gluten free pancakes. They were stellar!! Would highly recommend. This place is one of the easiest 5/5 I've ever given. 100% would recommend!!

Antilogy nailed brunch from the first sip to the last bite…read more We started with Bloody Marys. Our server asked if we wanted them spicy. We said yes, and she delivered. The cocktail actually had some heat, and the glass was rimmed with Everything Bagel Seasoning. I'd never had that before. It was a tasty touch. The candied bacon garnish was divine. We ended up ordering a second round. The Jalapeño Deviled Eggs are outstanding. Smooth and creamy, topped with jalapeño and candied bacon. Every bite was a pleasure. For entrees, I got the Bourbon Jalapeño Shrimp. It had a light kick and tasted incredible. My husband ordered the Rise & Shine Chicken Biscuit. It was all tasty, but that biscuit was fluffy and salty, exactly how a good biscuit should be. Our server made the whole meal. She was friendly and patient with me even though I was having more trouble than usual deciding what to order. She also mixed our Bloody Marys, so she was working double duty and doing it well. The space strikes a balance between sophisticated and casual, so you can dress up or keep it relaxed and feel comfortable either way. We'll definitely be back!

I have been wanting to check out Aspen Creek Grill for awhile…read more Their 4 1/2 star status with almost 300 reviews on Yelp is certainly impressive. It was fairly busy when we went on a Saturday mid afternoon. We were seated quickly. The atmosphere and decor reminds me quite a bit of Cheddars. When we sat down, there was some kind of an annoying and audible hum coming from the ceiling. It would randomly go on and off. Our server told us that it had to do with their sound/speaker system. The place had a fairly high noise level anyway, along with the music that they were playing. Our server was very friendly and helpful in navigating the menu and answering questions. She went above and beyond being highly attentive in keeping up with all of her tables. The food was above par and very good, quality and quantity wise. We tried a few chicken entrees and they were great. The fried mushrooms were super good. I noticed somebody in the Yelp reviews compared them to Chili's. My opinion is that there is no comparison. I went to Chili's recently and I think ACG is far better. Our experience was very pleasant, and I would definitely go again.

I've been to Aspen Creek Grill a handful of times now. The first time I went, I didn't love it and…read morethought it was just okay. I'm part of a lil local supper club, if you will, and I've continued to come to Aspen Creek with them. I still think it's just okay. It's sort of like someone put lipstick on an Applebee's. On Wednesday nights, they have a couple of $6 apps (with a two entree purchase) and that's a pretty fair deal. The Green Chili Grits are really tasty. Their fried mushrooms with that horseradish sauce is really good, too. They struggle to cook steaks well. Their other sides aren't exciting. Instead of being so excited by the sides that I struggle to choose, I struggle to choose because I really don't want any of them. I had the ribs once and they were cold inside near the bone. This was after a particularly disastrous evening when our ticket was lost and our meal was already discounted, so I didn't mention it. Otherwise, I would have. Their chicken tenders are not tenders. They're chicken strips, cut up slices of breast. I love chicken tenders. I don't love chicken strips. So, I expect menus to be noted accordingly. The servers are always really on top of things and that moves my rating from two stars to three.
