My wife and kids took me to Franklin's for their Father's Day Buffet. The food was good. It just needed some better sternos to keep the food hotter. The carrot cake was a delectable treat. The server was amazing and she provided legendary service. The ambiance was ok. They could probably use a lil more modern decor and some relevant decorations to jazz the place up a lil more. read more

First time here for me. The fam has been here many. The food was very good. We got they buy one get one wings special. The Parmesan garlic were terrific. Big size and cooked perfectly. Delicious. The carrot and celery sides were crazy fresh and crisp. The kids got a burger and a chicken wrap, and they were very happy with it. I had the wedge salad with two wedges. I love a wedge salad, and it's hard to find a good one. This was a good one! I got two wedges since it was my dinner. I could've done with one because it was that big. But it was delicious. The lettuce was so fresh and crispy. The blue cheese crumble was generous as was the bacon. The cherry tomatoes were fresh. And the blue cheese dressing was delicious. It just hit the spot like nothing else. I will definitely be back. read more

We went here for my nephew's birthday. We were seated in a timely manner because we had reservations. Our server was on top of his game. He got our drink order and appetizers order pretty quickly. Everyone likes their food for the most part. I had the Franklin Big Mac and, I can tell you, it's much better than McDonald's Big Mac. The dining room was clean and it wasn't too loud despite having a bar close to the dining room. The sodas came with free refills and they had tap water for those that wanted it I will come back here for our next big occasion. read more

Came here after work on a run and wow what a great spot! Delicious food and good service as well. read more

I am not cheap but $18 for a glass of Rufino Chianti is way overpriced! Our waitress Natalie was super nice and pulled pork sliders delicious, but I won't be back BC read more

Old reliable. Never had a bad steak here. Chicken wings are excellent especially on Mondays and Wednesdays when they're two for one can't beat it. This is definitely a once a month visit read more

The food was good but took to long to get. The ambiance is a bar setting with large open seating area. A little noisy when crowed.

Great food, great vibes! Excellent local spot and the expansion is awesome for private parties! Love the Franklin family!!!!

Food is amazing, service is top notch! Pete was phenomenal!! Very attentive and on top of refilling our drinks!

Went there with my wife to get a beer and steak. I decided to have a draft beer. There is a big selection of draft beer . I decided to have a French Dip , let me say that the bread makes it here also the soft roast beef with that aujus was vey tasty . read more

Our server was great and our food was delicious. Highly recommend eating here! Ask for Pete F.

Actually was at the tavern because of a training for work in Franklins event space. After the presentation lunch was served and the Caesar wraps and buffalo wraps and Big Mac sliders were all delicious. There were also chicken parm sliders that other attendees said were delicious. I would come back to the tavern for a beer and to try another dish. The staff on hand were very polite and nice and took really good care of us. read more

I usually come to the Franklin Steakhouse & Tavern on Sunday's during the football season. They have a long bar, plenty of TVs, a huge drink menu with beer on tap and weekend specials. This time I came for lunch. I ordered the ribeye sliders ($10.99). It came with three sliders. a festival of French fries and a cup of horseradish. I like my steak medium rare. I do not like steak that I have to fight with because it is too chewy. I like the steak to come out hot. This ribeye was to my liking in all those criteria. The French fries also came out hot and were thick enough to taste the potato. The horseradish could have been less creamy. Add a little more ribeye and this would have been a 5 Star. Service was quick and professional, but it was only about 3 pm. The restaurant is clean with basic simple furniture and chairs. Take a look at my photos. Prices are reasonable and for certain items on the menu, cheap. read more

Franklin Steakhouse is always a go-to ! The kitchen presents home made food and is carefully curated and always knocks it out of the park. Holiday decorations for every month make the dining rooms cozy and gets you in the mood to celebrate. Roxy is our favorite server on weeknights - very personable and interactive . Steaks and pasta dishes are always generous as well as the dozens of appetizers and weekly/daily specials . Have a full belly writing this review - a great evening at Franklin ! read more

Been here a couple of times on the weekends for drinks or to watch Sunday football. Friendly staff and service is good... plenty of tv's to to watch the various sports games all year long. Full bar with plenty of drink options. Diverse menu and have tried a couple of dishes there also weekend specials - fried pickles are good. California club is good enough to share as well as the sliders and fries. Side house salad had a bit of kick and spicy or was it the dressing... will stick to caesar salad or balsamic vinagrette next time. Save room for dessert - deep fried oreos with ice cream is good enough to share. Will be back to try more... read more

The vibes were immaculate for Sunday football with friends. The food is incredible. And I legit thought I was at Disney Land that's how much fun I was having. I even got rainbow sprinkles on my espresso martini. Next time I come in I will be bringing my Mickey Mouse hat that I normally bring to bars. Brianne is a 10/10 bartender. read more

Came here for lunch recently with a friend. He had the Steak Fajita; I had the Steak Quesadilla. Both were excellently prepared. The amount of steak on the fajita dish was impressive! The tortillas on the quesadilla were grilled perfectly and had a great mix of marinaded meat, peppers, onions, cheese. Our service was fast, on point and pleasant. They know how to crank out lunch quickly and the menu selections are great. Highly recommend you try Franklin Steakhouse for lunch with business colleagues or friends! read more

Atmosphere was awesome. Food was good. It wasn't a tradition steakhouse but they had lots if sports on..we were in heaven

We had dinner here on a Thursday night. We expected a customer to join but they weren't able to make it. I'm glad they didn't come. Food was ok, our server was great, the smoke in the air from cigars was so thick the room was blue gray. When I got home my clothes smelled, hair smelled, everything. I felt like it was 1981 again. It was a bit surreal for 2025. read more

Went to Franklin Steakhouse for my wife's birthday celebration. The restaurant was able to accommodate our party of 8 and infant grandson. They also met the dietary needs and requests of everyone. All in all the food was delicious and service was up to par. We will be returning for future gatherings and casual dining. read more

Drinks were not great. Espresso martini tasted like cherry - it was clear they used the same shaker bottle for another cocktail. Cocktails in general just weren't good. Stick with canned drinks if you go here. Food is not great either. read more

We were a party of 9 on a Saturday night and had the best dinner celebrating a birthday. Food was fantastic, service was excellent! Our waitress Anna was absolutely amazing! Got all of our orders perfect without writing anything down, was funny, friendly and responsive! Everyone enjoyed their dinners which included ribs, ny strip, grilled chicken, penne vodka with shrimp, eggplant sandwich, tacos, burger and french dip. We ordered a huge pretzel and salads to start. Everything was cooked well and delish! The red sangria was good too and a bargain at $15/pitcher! read more

This place is amazing! The stafff is great! Blonde hair Bri at the bar is my favorite ! She keeps us coming back !!

What can I say about one of my favorite places. The drink menu is giant and there are always great specialty drinks. I love the different Bloody Mary's they have. We shared a shrimp cocktail and steamed clams. Both excellent. The lemon garlic sauce the clams were in is fantastic. I could eat it like soup. Sandra's ribs were meaty and tender and my steak was cooked perfectly and tender. The service is always excellent and friendly and prices are very reasonable for what you receive. Definitely recommend this place. Enjoy read more

My best friend and I were both tired of Italian food after the holidays so I took her here for a birthday lunch. Very reasonable priced, huge location and clean. Staff is friendly and service is fast. The steak on my salad was a bit overcooked but flavorful. I wish the pear in my salad was ripe enough to eat, but my friend enjoyed her filet sandwich and I would return as they have a huge menu with something for everyone. read more

Large selection,reasonable prices,good food and atmosphere, good service,can't ask for much more, highly reccommend.

Decent food and service. Good steak, eggplant parm, but calamari was way too salty. Service was meh.

Thanks again for the wonderful food and the crunchy tortilla bowl even though my salad didn't come with it! Love you guys!

Our group wanted steak after our children's music recital and decided to try Franklin Steakhouse. The decor is basic but clean. Reminds me of an old school bar/steak house. Nice large bar and dining area. We were a party of 8 so we tried a variety of food. 6 of our party had filet mignon, unfortunately, most of them were slightly over cooked and dry. 2 people had the lobster bisque and really enjoyed them. We all split a couple of the large pretzel appetizers and enjoyed those as well. Because we were a party of 8 gratuity was included, and they also charge for using a credit card, so it was a bit disappointing that a mediocre meal came to $450. The upside was the service. Our server was very polite and attentive. All things considered, I think there are much better options in the area for this price point. read more

First off this place is SO UNDERRATED. I've driven past this restaurant probably 100 times in my life and finally went this past weekend. I went in a mid sized group and their service was so fast and amazing even considering it was a Saturday night. The food was amazing from everything I tried from the giant pretzel, Mac sliders, chicken tenders, chicken caesar wrap. We're all amazing I am just drooling re writing this. Also their desserts are incredible as well so make sure ur saving room! They have the place decorated in all these cute Valentine's Day decorations I just love it. A must try! read more

80s 90s night, good idea.... poorly executed. HORRIBLE DJ. If you can even call just plugging in a laptop and hitting play a DJ. Guess I'm a DJ too by those standards. With that the playlist was no good. How do you screw up playing 80s and 90s music?!?! I didn't have any food so can't comment on that. The drinks a little over-priced. The bathroom gross... comparable to a port-a-potty. read more

Hi Friend, Stopped in for a drink and a bite. The Brussels sprouts were GROSS!! They were breaded, drowned in balsamic reduction This still couldn't save this dumpster appetizer. They also scraped up bacon bits that were swimming in grease. This is appetizer is not made for human consumption. I Switch to the calamari this was part two to the horror show. Extremely salty and rubbery. It was like you breaded rubber bands and dragged them across sodium chloride ! A Female bartender / bouncer was hawking my bartender. It made for an uneasy feeling at the bar. The best thing was they had tooth picks!? F- read more

Ate here for the first time this past summer after a family outing and was not disappointed! For appetizers we ordered their philly cheesesteak egg rolls & the loaded potatoes skins. The egg rolls came with this great chipotle mayo dipping sauce. For mains, I got the Ribeye Steak Quesadilla, my dad got the Delmonico Black Angus Steak, and my sister in law got the Sizzling Steak Platter. I loved the quesdilla. The ribeye was nice and tender, it was flavorful and super filling. My dad - who is an avid steak eater - was happy. My sister said her steak was cooked a little too much for her liking. However, she did forget to tell the waitress how she wanted the steak cooked so that was on her. None the less, she really enjoyed her meal. We went back a month or so after that and will happily come back again! read more

I was look for a place to grab something to eat with my sister when we decided to go here since it said that they were open. We were 2 mins away and something told me to call just to see if there was a wait and to my surprise, they lady told me that they were closing in minute or two. I asked her if the hours online we're wrong and she stated, " we decided to close early because it's slow." read more

Second time at this Tavern and packed to the gills with an after work Friday crowd. Learning from the last time we made reservations and sat right down. Staff was amazing , happy, attentive and despite the crowd the food came out in a reasonable time. Preparing for Lent I opt'ed for the Fish Tacos that I found plentiful and enjoyable, fish was not over cooked and had nice flavor. My companion ordered Thai chicken lettuce wraps and again the portion size was ample and flavor was good and chicken cooked. Started to chow down so pictures don't reflect the portion size. read more

My husband and I have been to Franklin steakhouse three or four times, hello food has always been great. Our most recent trip we had a fantastic meal. I had the filet mignon medium rare with a side of coleslaw, my husband had balsamic pork chop with sautéed spinach and mashed potatoes. My steak was out of this world. The coleslaw was outstanding as well. My husband's pork chop was like butter, and the sautéed spinach was fantastic, and the mashed potatoes were excellent. On a previous trip, we both had the filet mignon sandwich which was unbelievably tender and delicious. read more

We went in around 9pm on a Friday night and we were one of the only tables on the dining side. Bar was wrapped with people waiting for live music to start. Service was super slow. The busser was great and kept clearing our table. Not sure if service was super slow because it was the end of the night Ordered the giant pretzel which was good so were the garlic parm wings. Both came out piping hot. Then I ordered the 10oz filet mignon medium. Came out RARE. I ate it because I was starving but as I got to the center it was too much. We were also charged something along the lines of a "non cash adjustment fee." They said this is due to credit card fees. Sorry but that's the cost of doing business why charge that fee? read more
