    The service here is just not good. I went during a very busy time and I was more understanding, but then I had to go back a day later when it wasn't busy at all and it was still slow. To order took a long time, our check we ask for multiple times, and our waitress was nowhere to be found. The food is just okay. For a brunch place in Murfreesboro it's better than some, but lacks flavor. The portion size is good, but the quality is low. If you want to eat stuff from Cysco this is your place. Ambiance is fine, nothing special, and a little boring. Will only be back if other people decide tobeat there.

    Fun casual breakfast/brunch/lunch spot with plenty of options! All menus were available to order from and specials as well. It definitely was popular time at 11am Saturday and we had an hour wait. They took our name and phone number and said they would call. Outside tables and chairs on the patio were open as they weren't running service outside so we enjoyed chatting while we waited. We checked back at the 1 hour mark and hostess said there was a table available and seated us then. Waitress was friendly and knowledgeable as we asked several questions about the menu, and she made sure she had our order and brought drinks quickly. Waited for food 20 minutes or so and it was delicious. Very generous portion and the included sides were practically meals themselves. Great value for the price and enjoyed ourselves. Would come back if we were local and try during the week.

    Fantastic lamb chops and eggs!

    Breakfast is always special here. Great options, fast, friendly service, a warm environment, and most importantly... delicious food!

    The food is always amazing. Tried the Nashville hot chicken waffle today for the 1st time. Amazing! The staff is so helpful. Even remembering my wife's name. I love being able to sit outside or enjoy breakfast/brunch at one of their cozy tables. The atmosphere is always a clean welcoming environment. Thanks for another great dining experience.

    Very small wait to be seated, but he food was phenomenal. Definitely get the blueberry lavender lemonade or the pomegranate lemonade. Brunch was definitely on point, 0 complaints.

    Goodness Gracious is a fantastic spot for breakfast and brunch! From the moment we arrived, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The menu is packed with creative, gourmet options--and I was especially impressed by the variety of gluten-free choices. The bright, cheery atmosphere makes it the perfect place to linger over coffee and enjoy a relaxed meal. An all-around excellent brunch experience that I can't wait to repeat.

    It isn't our first time but we really enjoyed our visit. Our server was attentive and super cheerful and nice. The food of course is as good as everyone says! Each time we go we try to add a new item we haven't tried and haven't been disappointed. It's a modern dining vibe but still somehow has the quaint atmosphere. Please beat the rush because it's always busy and normal a line to get in. And if you can make and get a table you'll be glad you got to eat. We'll be going back soon.

    Delicious food and you get SO much!! I got the short rib hash brown bowl and it was fantastic. Although I think they used brisket instead of short rib because the meat was thinly sliced and dry. Our sever was awesome and the atmosphere was laid back. We'll definitely be coming back, I'm excited to try other dishes on the menu.

    The Traditional Benedict
    Scott O.

    The food was good. It was not bad, but it was not very noteworthy either so I gave it a 4 out of 5 which may be generous for what I had. The service was great and the owner came by several times asking how we were doing. Everyone was very friendly. The decor was great for a place to eat brunch. Not too overly fancy but still classy.

    Gluten free Florentine Eggs Benedict
    Candace C.

    Absolutely perfect! Food was fresh, delicious and the service was impeccable. The gluten free options were more than I normally see. So delicious!

The fried chicken is cooked to order so I went with the white meat option (breast and wing) and I added a thigh. For sides I selected the pinto beans, cabbage, and sweet potatoes along with a fountain drink. You may have to wait 15 minutes for the chicken...but the chicken Adrian serves up would make your Granny jealous. This was some of the best fried chicken I've had in a very long time, crispy skin that was not overly seasoned and the meat was tender and juicy. While the chicken was excellent, the sides were saying "you ain't tasted nothing yet"!!! Pinto beans had a great depth to the flavor with a rich sauce and tender beans. The sweet potatoes were not overly sweetened (like candied) and you could taste the sweet potato, slightly firm, and reminded me of Thanksgiving. I saved the best for last...the cabbage. Many times cabbage offered is just boiled, but Adrian adds some secret ingredients and it is awesome. So while the meat was excellent, the sides are created in true Southern tradition. Several homemade desserts were available...but I was stuffed. The location may be difficult to get into with traffic, but the food that awaits you is well worth it. Pay Adrian a visit and enjoy some good old home cooking right here in Murfreesboro.

Housed in the old…read moreVersailles/Rockvale Store (built in 1884) and had been empty for the past 40 years, they did a great job renovating. Sat down and Megan brought me a menu while sharing some of the "must haves" here. I ordered the Philly Sirloin steak sandwich (this is not a Philly cheesesteak for all you purists out there) and the Tater Tornado as an appetizer. The Tater Tornado gives you the best of both worlds...potato chips and french fries and they are really good. I sprinkled a little salt on em, dipped in ranch dressing, they are addicting!!! This steak sandwich is solid! The steak had some nice grill char, great flavor, and is very tender. The veggies caramelized while the smoked gouda cheese is a really nice touch. Even the "side" of cole slaw was very good, fresh, and crunchy. While I was eating Megan brought some fried pies to a table and they smelled incredible. So I ordered a blueberry one to go and suffered in my SUV the whole way home smelling it. These pies alone are worth the drive out here...absolutely delicious! Without a doubt the best homemade blueberry fried pie I've ever enjoyed. Really great food, nice serene country setting, and friendly service. Well worth the drive out to Rockvale!!!

Their fries (big surprise) and fried chicken are probably my favorite bites that I've tried so far, and portion sizes were generous!

If you're in the area and have a hankering for some country cooking or a juicy burger, head on down!
