Some of the components of the sandwich were not bad (biscuit and scrambled egg), the Ruby Mimosa was not worth it at all, and the coffee was terrible. Server was great though. She really tried and was kind. read more

Ruby Sunshine Franklin - Breakfast Sandwich - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

The service was great - everyone was very polite & friendly. The food is pretty good - but a tad bit overpriced for what it is (in my opinion). However, it's a fun brunch spot and the atmosphere makes it worth it. A downside - during COVID, there is not much social distancing... tables are fairly close together & I didn't see any tables marked off to give people more space. That made me a tad bit weary. All servers were wearing masks properly, which was great! Def a spot I'd visit again. read more

Went in for breakfast today. Good waitress, however the food was mediocre. Biscuits a little dry and not really fresh. The breakfast potatoes were over cooked. Eggs ordered over medium, one was runny the other hard. My wife liked her omelette, and salad. Her biscuit was not good. read more

This was our first time at Ruby Sunshine and it was a great experience. Make sure to join the waitlist through Yelp because there's usually a line out the door. More restaurants should make use of this system because it saves so much time and makes the experience more convenient for customers. There are other restaurants in downtown Franklin that make you actually go in before being added to the list and then you end up waiting 30+ minutes outside when they're going to text you anyways when your table is ready. This just makes more sense... Once we got there the hostesses were very welcoming and greeted us with smiles. Since we joined the waitlist online, we only had to wait about 5 minutes before we were seated. Being our first time we wanted to try both sweet and savory. Hubby ordered a BYO omelette with cheddar, mushroom, onions, spinach, bell peppers, bacon and ham with a side of cheddar grits (it comes with a biscuit and sugar cane butter). I ordered a peacemaker benedict so I could try 2 different types. I got one Corned Beef Hash and one Chicken St Charles Benedict with the sauces on the side so hubby could try them too. (He's picky with his sauces.) We also ordered a Brioche French Toast to share (which comes with a side of bacon). Hubby really liked his omelette and ate all of it. Their biscuits are huge, buttery and super fluffy. We liked them more than the biscuits from Biscuit Love. For the benedicts, the eggs were poached beautifully with a creamy yolk that nicely coated the other toppings. I'm glad we got the sauces on the side because I think the horseradish cream was a bit strong and I wouldn't have liked it smothered on the biscuit. The hollandaise was good but they were a bit heavy handed on the hot sauce and I would've preferred if the hollandaise didn't have any hot sauce in it. However the pork tasso cream sauce was perfect. I used it for both of the benedicts. In other Yelp pictures the chicken pieces for the Chicken St Charles looked really big but my piece was kind of small at least it still tasted pretty good. The French toast was light, fluffy and yummy and the bacon was crispy. We will definitely order it again next time or maybe try the banana foster one. The cheddar grits were also creamy and very tasty. Also not sure what the other Yelper was talking about because we got regular silverware and not plastic ones. Overall great experience and reasonably priced for the quality and quantity of what you get. We will definitely be back! read more

We visited this morning for breakfast for the third time. The hostess was not at the front when we came in the door but she showed up soon enough and happily lead us to a table. Gramps was our server and was super friendly and accommodating. Most of the family loves the Migas (try them if you haven't they are awesome), we had a special order pancake and it's hard to pass on the French toast bites! Thanks for the friendly service and good food! See you next time read more

Lovely brunch on a Sunday morning. First time here and our server Jose was very polite and intuitive. Food was delicious and everyone was so nice. Place is very clean and bright. Wonderful atmosphere and fun place to people watch! Highly recommend the French toast bites. We will be back! read more

This place has the best Bacon I've ever tasted. The Banana pecan pancakes are the best. They absolutely fall of your plate! Who can eat all this? Great service and very clean. The Decor just says, Happy Morning I cant wait to come back for dinner. read more

Avoid Sat morning - getting seated is one thing, but 45mins from order to table is a bit long. Not happy with my food conning out at room temp. HOWEVER, the food was absolutely delicious! Food quality is excellent - we didn't leave feeling like we had eaten a heavy southern breakfast. Servers were friendly and checked back frequently - didn't hurry us at all. We're looking forward to going back on a day that they're not completely slammed! read more

Beautifully designed ambiance with bright colors (hence the name Ruby Sunshine) on the walls and lovely stained glass windows used as room dividers above the wooden booths. Friendly service at the booth and hostesses upfront. Also, there's a counter area in front of you're looking for coffees to go anytime during their open hours. Loved the outdoor patio area with umbrellas . On a Friday at lunch time, we waited way too long for our meals for five people. Maybe they're still working out the kinks in their kitchen??? This was the slowest meal at a restaurant or cafe that I've received in the past year. I eat out several times per week. I'll return for the ambiance, outdoor patio seating and their beyond delicious iced coffee. read more

I got the French toast and it came with a side of bacon, and I added a side of cheese grits. The French toast was good, but it was pretty normal compared to other restaurants. The bacon was really good and the cheese grits were great, wish I would've gotten a larger bowl of those! My friend got the grits and catfish, the catfish were more breading than actual fish, and she had to get a side of cheese for the grits. My other friend got the smoked salmon Benedict, the salmon was REALLY good, it isn't your typical sliced smoke salmon. And it was also very filling! I'd also recommend getting a side of sliced avocado for only $1.50!! For drinking, they don't have bottomless mimosas, but they do have a single mimosa for $10. If personally recommend doing the morning margarita which is also $10! read more

Waitress was great and the place is clean and friendly. The food is good but nothing special. The broach French toast is thin... was expecting thicker bread. Inlet was good. Side of potatoes seems to be from a frozen bag of small diced potatoes with some salt. read more

Wonderful! I had the Spanish omelet with a side of fruit and it was excellent. Great service and atmosphere. Will definitely be back!

Great place for groups of 4 or less. Groups of 5 or more, there are very long waits. Hostess training is definitely needed. Food is excellent if you have the time to wait. Restaurant decor is fun. Servers are friendly and attentive. read more

Omg I'm hesitant to write a glowing review because all of you reading this review will impact my future wait time to get a table. Having said that this place is amazing. Great location, great wait staff and amazing food. My omelet was perfectly cooked ( wasn't overcooked which happens more often than not when eating out) with fresh ingredients. The menu is eclectic so there is something for everyone. Come enjoy - you won't to be disappointed. read more

This is a very nice place for a simple breakfast. Their basic coffee is lovely tasting ! The waitstaff is always friendly ! Omelets are a fairly nice sized portion! read more

Food, atmosphere and service were top tier! I would definitely recommend, great for families or if you want to have a relaxing meal alone.

Good place for breakfast in downtown Franklin! The service was awesome, but the food was just okay. It's your basic run of the mill breakfast - the atmosphere and service are definitely what make this place cool! Would recommend to visit! read more

My wife and I had a wonderful brunch this morning at Ruby Sunshine. The food and service were amazing, can't recommend enough! Ask for Chris or " Slacker " as they call him - he was the best! read more

I was impressed with this place. The wait was quite long, which isn't surprising for brunch places on a Saturday. I didn't have high hopes going in, but was pleasantly surprised. The drinks were good and the food was quite tasty. We shared all 4 appetizers, including French toast bites, which was my favorite followed by the pig candied bacon bites. My entree was classic buttermilk pancakes with bacon on the side. All delicious. Will definitely be going back. read more

Waited an hour and 50 minutes for what was an average breakfast that I could have cooked at home. I understand that staffing is a challenge right now, but that wasn't the problem. I was the only person standing at the bar trying to order a drink while I waited, and it took the bartender 20 minutes to even acknowledge me. My corned beef hash had about 2 small shreds of of beef in it (mostly just potatoes). If you could just walk in and eat, this place is fine. But never again would I wait more than 5-10 minutes to eat here. read more

Very nice breakfast and brunch menu. The place is well managed and the service is very good. Weekends are very busy and therefore use Yelp to get in line. Located downtown Franklin so browse around while you wait ! As for the food, go Benedict the variety is wide so get a mix and match! read more

This wasn't just breakfast. It was an experience. Loved the unusual variety of the menu and the healthy choices. Taste was amazing!!! Will visit again. read more

We tried this place out when we had some family visiting in town. It was very easy to put your name in on the waitlist online so you didn't have to wait inside. I tried 2 of the eggs benedict options and they were both amazing. I had the Chicken St Charles and the Eggs Cochon. I didn't love the mimosa I had or the cheap plastic wine glass it was served in so next time I'd probably opt for something different. Overall it was pretty good service, although our server seemed a little overwhelmed, but we will definitely be back. read more

Ruby Sunshine Franklin - Eggs Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

We eat breakfast here at least twice a week and have nothing but compliments for the food and servers. Food is made to order rather than having something like pre-made oatmeal sitting in a pot. Their dishes are delicious and have a different flair than most restaurants in the area. Don is our favorite server, but all their employees are great. read more

Tried Ruby Sunshine on a good review, and no disappointment here at all. Brunch - tried the Peacemaker Benedict with Cochon & Shrimp - really just amazing all the way! My son had the fried chicken & gravy, and just moaned with pleasure all the way through! read more

We just happened to come here by chance. We'll decorated and clean place. My Girlfriend and I chose to have seats at the bar rather than in he dining area. We were quickly greeted by the bartender "OG". We started off with a couple Irish coffees. Delicious and the perfect amount of Irish to get things right! The food menu is filled with so many interesting and tempting dishes. We opted for the bread pudding pancakes with white chocolate whiskey sauce and the crawfish and grits cakes with Louisiana crawfish cream sauce to share. Wow, delicious doesn't start to describe the experience. It was absolutely amazing. During our meal, OG gave us some great conversation and the back story on Ruby Sunshine. All food and drinks are made in house and most are made fresh daily. No Sysco here! I highly recommend this place if you are looking for quality and unique dishes that satisfy! read more

Food was delicious. Served hot and promptly. Aspen was our server and she did a great job.

This was a very mediocre place. The food was nothing to write home about. A few dishes all came out really cold but it did take about 45 minutes to get bacon and eggs. They did remake the eggs for us since they had sat out while the rest of the food was made. The service was non existent. I really liked the atmosphere until the piano player showed up and set up shop outside the front door. He sat outside but it was so loud you could not hear and made talking to your table much less enjoyable. Great bloody Mary's but really light on alcohol. We had the fried chicken Benedict, stuffed French toast, French toast bites, and the goat cheese with spinach omelet and a couple of traditional breakfasts that had bacon, eggs, toast, and grits. read more

Great spot for breakfast in historic Franklin. Call ahead so you can avoid the wait and I'd recommend an omelette, it was phenomenal.
