    Corn crème Brûlée
    Jessica Y.

    I was so excited to eat there. But I was kind of underwhelmed by the food specially for the price. Best thing was those little fried rolls! Scallops were gritty and crème brûlée corn was more like creamed corn.

    Brussel Sprouts

    This was such a delicious meal! I came to celebrate the birthday and the staff was so friendly, offering us a free slice of cake as well as a birthday card that was signed by the staff. Now, the food was absolutely amazing, we started with their complimentary bread that tasted like a cross between bread and a donut, it was incredible. For our entree I went with the filet medallions and crab cake. The steak was cooked perfectly and the crab cake was so flavorful without being mushy. The whipped potatoes brought everything together when you mixed it in with the crab and steak! We also got the brussel sprouts and parmesan fries for the table. The brussel sprouts were perfectly crispy and the fries were a huge portion! Super crisp and great flavor of garlic and Parmesan. This was a fantastic dinner and I'll definitely be back, super intrigued to try out the pastas!

    Ribeye
    Thomasina T.

    I had the ribeye and lamb chops, and both were cooked medium-well with a great sear. The cook was on point--tender, juicy, and exactly how I like my meat. My only complaint is that they needed a little more seasoning and flavor. Overall, a good meal and I'd definitely give it another try!

    I got the tuna stack as an appetizer and the ribeye with Mac n cheese and creamed spinach. Everything was enjoyable but not like omg amazing I have to come back type of enjoyable since I don't live near cool springs.

    The best steakhouse we've found in the middle TN area. It's our top choice for all special occasions and it's never let us down. I highly recommend it

    Stoney River has recently changed their menu and prices. Sadly, we don't plan on coming back. They got rid of many staples such as the trout, meatloaf and hamburger. The replacements are subpar. They even have a new recipe for mashed potatoes. They are now saturated with butter. Just look at how heavy they are in the pictures.

    Carrot cake

    Great food and the kids loved it too which made it an even better night. Our server was also amazing. The carrot cake was a big hit!

    Food Let's talk about it!!! Everything we tasted was spot on! Started with the steak rolls and the free rolls, had the bone-in pork chop and double cut lamb chops. You can't go wrong with any of their choices, though. Wanted to try the Halibut but it was sold out . Next time, will have to get a side of the chimichurri because it was incredible on the steak rolls and with the lamb chops! Service Staying with the halibut. We were able to order it, but were informed moments later that it was not available. Could've been an issue but the manager Jane made it right! Apologized and turned around that part of the service. Other than that, seated immediately and our waiter was very attentive making sure the drinks stayed filled. Ambiance Absolutely amazing, cozy. Loved the fireplace. The lighting can be a bit dark so it can be tough to get those Yelp pictures but I tried my best lol. All in all, great restaurant in an easily accessible location with amazing food and Ambiance. Will be back again soon!

    Every single piece of food we each tasted was seriously perfect delicious. We each ordered more than we needed so we did grab take-home boxes to carry the yummy stuff with us. The vibe in here is so wonderful and feels so relaxing and comfortable. My favorite thing even more than food at every place I go to is always the service though. The service here was seriously A+++. The host at the entry, the server, the manager, and everyone else in there were seriously perfect and made the whole time there so fun and enjoyable. This had to be the greatest place to go for a meal and even sit with others and hang out. So great.

    I dined at Stoney River on March 9, 2024 at 7:30 pm for my birthday. I had a good experience and it was a good choice to celebrate my birthday. The food was great, but the service was less attentive than expected. Probably because we were seated in the corner next to the bathrooms. But it wasn't too bad because it was a lot less noisy than the middle of the restaurant. For appetizer, I had the lobster bisque. The bisque was creamy and flavorful. I was satisfied that it had a decent amount of lobster pieces in there. For the entree, I got the coffee-cured filet mignon with a side of garlic mash potatoes. It was cooked to a perfect medium temperature and was one of the best tasting filets I had. It did come out missing the chimichuri sauce, but it was rectified after several minutes of waiting for the server to come back and check on us. The food came out in decent time, which was impressive given how busy they were. If the service was more attentive, it would be deserving of 5 stars. Overall, very excellent food, a bit pricey though. Average service, because it took a while. But your service could vary depending on the day, time, and server.

Perfect crunch, not too much breading, and great spice level. Crab cakes had huge chunks of lump meat, you got what you paid for. The dipping sauce they came with was quite nice. Brussels sprouts... hands down THE BEST I'VE EVER HAD. I want the recipe. I don't know how to describe them, but sweet and salty, good char, a little heat, tender inside, melt in your mouth. Caesar salad as fine, but just a typical one, nothing great about it. Dressing tasted bottled and the croutons were lacking, but it wasn't bad. My dad enjoyed the burger. Clean inside, nice decor. 9/10 experience. Expensive, but worth it for what you received.

    This is one of our favorite local spots. The food is consistently good, which makes sense since…read morethey're part of the same restaurant group as a few other upscale places nearby. The crowd and waitlist speak for themselves. We called for Father's Day reservations right when they opened and actually had several time slots to choose from. The atmosphere is nice--dim lighting and an open kitchen. The staff helps each other out, so our glasses never ran dry and we didn't have to ask for anything. I got the Steak Maui--a marinated ribeye with pineapple teriyaki--and it came with mashed potatoes that were really good too. My daughter and I shared the house salad with their vinaigrette dressing, which we both liked. My husband and daughter both ordered the New York Strip and were happy with their meals as well.

I recently gave my team the option of where they wanted to have lunch and J. Alexander's was the winning choice by far, so off we went on a Wednesday afternoon. This location is fairly large, well laid out, well kept and clean. The atmosphere, menu, vibes and service are elevated, but not pretentious. We had a reservation and were sat fairly quickly. From there, our server was quick to swing by and get us started with drinks and appetizers. We ordered a few appetizers including the Hong Kong Shrimp and a Spinach/Queso dip. Both were delightful and great starts to our meal. The pork chops were top priority for a few of my team, so a few went with the pork chops, another the burger and I went with the steak frites. None of us regretted our choices! Sadly between the appetizers and mains, we were a bit full to have dessert, but the menu sounded great. Service was friendly and helpful, but she was a bit tough to track down when we needed something. Did not detract from the meal, but was noticeable on at least two occasions. Overall, J. Alexander's is a good spot in a good location, and I will certainly be back at some point.

    Came here on a sweltering day for lunch with a coworker & client, who we'll call Dennis because…read morethat was his name. Culamar is drenched in natural light and decorated simply - nothing too loud or busy about the place, thus perfect for a working lunch. The menu was odd and we all struggled to understand the categories it was broken up into. Each item read as a series of arbitrarily listed ingredients. Our (half asleep, disinterested) waitress informed us the dishes were, in majority, "tapas style", a term I find exhaustingly passé. I began to dream of restaurants down the road we could have selected, but we were here and we must stay the course! I had to keep it together for Dennis. We ordered 6 dishes for the three of us to share, and you know what? They were all excellent. Really such outstanding bites. I was stunned by how much I enjoyed the beef carpaccio, the calamari was the best I've ever had (amazing tempura fry!), the Gnuddi (basically a massive gnocchi) in browned butter and crisp sage was a pillowy delight. In spite of my initial concerns -- the hiccups of a confusing menu and our less-than-energetic waitress -- we all left with pleased palates.

The food itself was absolutely delicious. The bread was AMAZING and honestly one of the highlights. We also ordered the oysters, beef carpaccio, and duck, and everything tasted incredible. My biggest complaint is the price for the portion sizes. I really don't mind spending money on a nice dinner, but every dish we ordered was gone in what felt like less than a minute. Everything tasted amazing, but for the amount of food you actually get, I just couldn't justify the prices. We actually left and ended up going to another restaurant afterward because we were still hungry, which was pretty disappointing considering how much we had just spent. Overall, the food was delicious, but between the extremely small portions, high prices, tight space, and slower service, it just wasn't worth it for us. I'm glad we tried it, but I wouldn't go back.

    Found an absolute hidden gem in Franklin tonight!…read more Mi Kitchen delivered from start to finish. The atmosphere immediately caught our attention--creative, intimate, colorful, and just a really cool vibe. Then the food came out and somehow managed to match the setting. We tried the beef tacos, soy garlic wings, glass noodles, and steak, and everything was packed with flavor and beautifully presented. The steak was cooked perfectly, the wings were crispy and loaded with flavor, and those beef tacos definitely deserve another visit of their own. ‍ What really completed the experience was the service. Gene was awesome--friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and made us feel genuinely welcomed throughout dinner. Great food, great atmosphere, excellent service, and reasonable prices for the quality. It's always a win when you stumble across a place you weren't expecting and leave already thinking about what you're ordering next time. Mi Kitchen is officially on the repeat list.

From the food to the service, everything exceeded our expectations. The first thing that stood out was their small plate concept, and I absolutely loved it. I enjoy trying a variety of dishes instead of committing to just one entrée, and this concept is something I wish more restaurants would adopt. We ended up trying almost half the menu and loved nearly every dish. A huge shout-out to our server, Nestor. He welcomed us warmly, was cheerful throughout the evening, and his recommendations were spot on. He truly made the dinner even more enjoyable. We started with a couple of mocktails, and the Purple Haze was refreshing and delicious. Here are some of our favorites: MI Cucumber - Smashed cucumber with soy dressing, crunchy chili oil, and cilantro. Simple, refreshing, and packed with flavor. Plantain - Fried plantains topped with sriracha goat cheese, cilantro, and crunchy gremolata. The sriracha goat cheese paired perfectly with the sweet plantains. K-Pop Chicken - Korean sweet and spicy popcorn chicken with great flavor and a perfect balance of sweetness and heat. Dumplings - Homemade steamed dumplings with edamame, truffle, yuzu ponzu, and garlic confit. I really enjoyed the truffle flavor, though it may not be for everyone. Kimchi Bacon Risotto - Caramelized kimchi, applewood smoked bacon, tomato, and shrimp. One of the best dishes of the night--perfectly cooked with incredible flavor. Crispy Spicy Tuna - Spicy mayo tuna served over crispy rice. This was one of the highlights of the meal. The crispy rice was absolutely perfect. Cauliflower Taco - Crispy cauliflower with guacamole, creamy miso, and tsiran spice. The filling was flavorful, and the cauliflower was cooked perfectly. Lamb Chops - This was the only dish that felt average. The lamb was cooked well, but it was missing a bit of flavor. A little more seasoning, especially some salt, would have really elevated the dish. To finish the meal, we had the Banana Pudding with Vanilla Gelato, which was a delicious and satisfying way to end dinner. Overall, MI Kitchen completely exceeded our expectations. Amazing food, a fun small-plate concept, and outstanding service from Nestor made this a memorable experience. We'll definitely be back to explore the rest of the menu!
