Stayed at the nearby comfort inn and was nice to have a great food option within walking distance as I am a semi truck driver so parking isn’t always easy.Food was amazing and priced very good.Service was great very accommodating as a fast storm came thru even gave me a umbrella to walk back to the hotel with.I most definitely will come here again to eat if it’s on my route.Everything was amazing.

Man oh man! If your looking for Mexican food near or around Franklin this is the place to write back home about. Even if your not stop by order and you'll love it! The star of the show was the Hot Habanero salsa! We stopped for lunch and no disappointments at all.. The food was FIRE and the service was beyond excellent Enrique made sure we were taken care of from the time we arrived till we left. We'll be stopping back by here on our way home!

Hidden Jem! Incredible. Live music, beer on tap, strong Margaritas, excellent food, personable service. I can't say enough good things about this establishment. One side traditional Mexican Restaurant. Other side 1980's Texas Honkey Tonky. Live band Karaoke. Everybody having a good time.

On 6/29/2025 James Russell had this to say:
Fantastic service and even better food. It was busy and I believe they were short staffed. I saw one server sprinting to make sure his tables were taken care of. I appreciate the care! 12/10 will be back again.
