    [July 2025] I came here on my last night in Franklin on a solo date! There is a parking lot that is shared with other businesses in this quadrant. I started my order off with a coconut margarita which was soooooooo very good! For my meal, I ordered a bison burger with a side salad instead of fries. To this day, I still think about that burger. It was perfectly cheesy and paired well with the fried onions and fried jalapenos. If I am ever in the area again, I will definitely be back!

    I actually liked the burger and the service was nice however, the dining area was a bit dirty. The waiters menu station was untidy, the service cabinets where the servers put in the food orders were falling down and it felt the dining area could use a spring cleaning. I may return but I'm not rushing back.

    Ramsey Smashburger

    So there's a fine line between upscale/top tier "fast food" and affordable "sit down" casual dining. A matter of a couple of dollars separates the overall cost of a Red Robin, Shake Shack, Five Guys and/or a place like "Burger Up." "Burger Up" has all of those places beat hands down in terms of ambience, service, atmosphere, etc. I really appreciate their commitment to locally sourced ingredients and beef as much as possible as well, so perhaps I should also grant them grace in terms of price. I had the smash burger-Ramsey. It was...good. Good, not great. Good beef, okay toppings/bun/etc. It didn't quite feel like a smash burger--a bit thick for that maybe? It wasn't crispy around the edges particularly. But it had overall good flavor and I enjoyed it. Not greasy at all. The Ramsey supposedly has pimento cheese but if so, it was very slight. The fries were good. I had a winter ale (Shiner) which was good...but as others mentioned, $8 is a tad pricey for a Shiner even if it is seasonal, especially since I was dining at a time ripe for happy hour and/or specials. My server was great, friendly and helpful. 3 is "good" "solid" "overall worthwhile" IMO, so this is definitely not a thumbs down. There's plenty of parking, the overall atmosphere is great. It's good food, just 10% or so pricier than it should be.

    Mac and cheese bites and Oreo mint milkshake

    Just an average burger place. My husband and I got patty melts. The onions were pretty raw (in lieu of caramelized) and it just had plain I toasted white sandwich bread. We were able to try the onion rings, regular fries, and sweet potato fries. All just average and kinda soggy. The Mac and cheese bites were ok, and we would probably get them again. I don't know if the milkshake was good or I'm just prego and needed ice cream lol but I'd get it again. Service was fine considering it was packed.

    Bison Burger & Fries
    Mari B.

    Haven't been here in years and glad we stopped by! Our serve Alfredo was fantastic. Good beer selection. Fried pickles were delicious and served with ranch dressing. Our little had kids grilled cheese and glad it came with not only fries but apple slices. The Bison Burger was fantastic - lean but flavorful. Loved the fries the came with them - they had Parmesan, garlic and seasoning with a great mustard type sauce - very good fries! All in all, a good experience all around!

    Burger Ups Kids Menu

    As a mom who drives around and drops off kids at lessons, this is such a great kid -friendly restaurant! All of their food is so good and sauces are top notch. There honestly hasn't been anything bad that we have ordered. The truffle fries are a must too! They have a great kids menu too (shown), and their plates are served on the faux paper white places and it always has a steer or cow under it after eating all their food along with wikki stix. I hope this review helps any mom out there looking for an alternative to fast food (if you have the time).

    OG Smashburger (with lettuce wrap instead of bun)
    Tim G.

    Glad we finally tried this place. Had a good meal and a great experience. The service was excellent (thanks, Caleb!). Interior was very nice. Somehow I was expecting more of a fast food place, but this is a great spot for dining in and hanging out, with table service. The food was good. The Fried Mac & Cheese Bites were really good, with a tasty dijon aioli for dipping. My wife loved her OG Smashburger, opting for the lettuce wrap to make it gluten-free. They also offer a gluten-free bun, and the menu is marked pretty well for gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian options. I had the Woodstock Burger, which was tasty. Fries were also good, nice and crispy. We will definitely come back to check it out again soon, and try some of the other burger options.

    Wagyu Burger on Pretzel Bun

    I think it's pretty insane for 2 hamburgers and 1 beer to cost approximately $60... $8 for an average beer that is more than a 6-pack you can buy at the store, and the hamburgers averaging about $18 bucks a piece Is CRAZY... I guess if you don't want to cook at home, then splurge... Honestly, I would come just for the fries and special made ketchup. I so wish i could duplicate that ketchup at home. And, I can't complain about the taste... They were yummy burgers!

    What do I say about Mooyah? The food is good. The service exceptional, and the atmosphere? Well it…read morewas comfortable enough, but if you're looking for bustling crowds and high energy, you've come to the wrong place. The restaurant was near empty at 1pm on a Wednesday afternoon. You won't have a problem carrying on a conversation. In fact, you could have each person of a party of four sit in opposite corners of the place and speak in a whisper, and still spill the tea. Crickets, and I can't explain why. As I mentioned, the food is good. Hearty and tasty. I got the make your own. A simple burger with bacon and avocado, and fries. Delicious. I can't explain why the hoards haven't found their way here. One possible explanation could be that there's a hippie restaurant, Flower Child, right next door. It was drawing pretty heavy on the foot traffic. Then there's the Shake Shack across the parking lot. It too seemed pretty popular. So what it probably comes down to is the old adage, location, location, location. My daughter seems to think that it's name recognition. She could be right. I don't get how Mooyah ties into burgers. Maybe "moo" as in cow? They do have shakes. Is that where the moo comes into play? It's a mystery. Give the Moo your business. You're going to like the food, and if you're a loner, you'll be in heaven. Quick Tip: Pass on the soda and get one of the mixed fruit drinks. They're quite refreshing, and because there's nobody there, your drink will be abundant and cold.

    The burger is really good! If you haven't tried this place I would recommend it. If you like In &…read moreOut burger like I do Mooyah gives them a run for the money. Try it you will like it. Now my suggestion is that we are all different and like different things but the French fries here I think are not worth paying for. No one beats in & out. I tried the chocolate shake once here and that too a big No! Shake shack has the best on shakes....my opinion of course. If you're in the mood for a burger by all means get it , it is worth it. So good. The weird thing I noticed is the burger bun is upside down. What the ......but hey it's still good. The important factor for me as well , the customer service is good

Becoming…read morea regular at a local bar was never in the plans, but I fell in love with the atmosphere, and I've been visiting regularly for years. If you're looking for a game, there are plenty of screens here to watch it on. Want a late night? It's the perfect vibe. There's something fun happening every day of the week with a variety of specials (and happy hour). The food is good and the beer is always flowing! But ultimately what keeps me coming back is the people. The service here is top tier. No other bar has made me feel as safe or as welcome as the servers here. This place is a rare gem specifically because of them. Tony's wants to you "meet your friends here," and that's exactly what I've done. If you're looking for an amazing, local bar, Tony's is the place to be.

    This is basically just a sports bar. The food was disappointing. You can tell it is just frozen…read morefood warmed up. I ordered a mushroom burger with no mayo. It seemed a simple request. The waitress did not write my order down. She kept it in her head, I guess. My burger came with mayo which overwhelmed the burger. All seating is high top tables. Literally, just a sports bar with the attraction of young waitresses showing their midriff. The other thing I noticed is several of the waitresses sat down at a couple of tables with friends eating there. There were definitely two tables that seemed to know all the waitresses, and those on duty waitresses constantly visited with their friends all through our dinner. Find a better burger place. Don't waste your time here.
