Restaurants in Franklin

“Absolutely the best takeout, in fact, the best restaurant food we've had in ages! Fall-off-the-bone, delectable ribs. Creamy mac n cheese. Yummy sweet potato fries. Excellent empanada with beef brisket. You can tell everything was made with care, love and pride. We highly recommend & will go again.”

“I’m in the area for just one night and needed to figure out where I could get a quick dinner. I saw Sophie’s Bistro and after getting a recommendation from a colleague, I made a reservation. It’s a really casual place; not pretentious in any way, but the bartender was both talented and conversational and made something off menu to enjoy. For dinner, I decided on French Onion Soup and Steak Frites and thoroughly enjoyed myself. Besides this, the bread service they bake in house is amazing and I learned about the owner and how he treats his people and that made me even happier that I came in. I wish we had a place like this where I live; I would be there all the time. I’m not sure when I’ll be back in the area, but next time I’m near Somerset, I know where I’ll do dinner. Give it a try, you’ll be happy”

“We had an amazing meal a few weeks ago at Luca’s! We were greeted and seated and waited on promptly. We brought our own wine in which they had no problem opening for us. The food was out of this world. Their meatball appetizer is everything you’ve heard and then some. Incredible sauce, bread service, and our meals were excellent. My partner had the octopus for an appetizer and said it was incredible. Both of our meals were amazing and served timely and piping hot. I had the chicken marsala with mushroom risotto, delicious! And he had the veal saltimbocca. The service was prompt, pleasant and just perfect, and the atmosphere is lovely. I highly recommend this restaurant!”

“Simply the best ,I eat there everyday there open great food great service and trust me I'm a fuss pot when it comes to my food but they have never disappointed me in the years I have been going there”

“stopped in for the first time today and I have to say the food was delicious, the banana pudding shake great and the staff were super nice and welcoming. I definitely recommend stopping in. 👍👍”

“Stopped in for lunch. Atmosphere was comfortable. My server Jutay was amazing, very positive attitude. Had the soup of the day with fresh squeezed lemon, which elevated the taste even more. My burger was juicy and flavorful. My only suggestion would be to have those in the dining room, not be listening to their phone on speaker. I plan on visiting again!!”

“Food 10/10 Service 10/10 Cleanliness 10/10 Cost 10/10 Everything they do is good from pizza to garlic knots , rice balls to French fries have never had even a mediocre meal here always above par !!! Everyone is always pleasant and kind only thing I would change is move them closer to Vernon 😊”

“Awesome food & great service!! ❤️”

“Make no mistake, this is 5-star pizza. Get a few “personal” pizzas for variety: a cheese, a white, and maybe a mushroom or pepperoni - well done. Absolutely the best in Somerset area. If you stop there for lunch, their slices are quite big, you only need 1. And the chicken fingers are a MUST. We just love Amici’s. I recommend calling them directly and pick up, or ask for delivery. The owners are just great people. ?”

“They're always great and nice...love the ice cream everything is amazing!!”

“Tastee has been a staple in my life for as long as I can recall. Never disappoints!

Parking: If they're busy and spots are filled up front (only about 5 or 6 to begin with), you'll have to pull around back.”

“Found Hamilton BBQ by accident and instantly fell in love with the food. OMG So good, great portions. Hubby and I were so very very happy to discover this wonderful place.”

“The picture i posted is the best Guinness beef stew I've ever had. All of the food here was great. Drove right by and decided to turn around and stop in. It's a far drove from where I am but I want to go back soon.”

“excellent food especially the pizza and deserts. Generous portions, and they give you extra items for FREE! Very friendly staff...an all-around great place to eat (reasonable prices too!).”

“Have been going here for months. The staff is incredibly friendly and super knowledgable about their products. The atmosphere is lovely, and the selection of products is boundless. 10/10”

“I have been here twice and each time the men/workers are friendly and attentive. The food taste fresh and looks more than appealing. I love how they fry the wings slightly hard so that the sauce doesn't make them too mushy. Each time the place was clean and I even saw the man wiping down in between services.”

“Great food and workers are very friendly”

“The best Filipino food we ever tasted while visiting New Jersey... affordable, clean and everything was delicious... Highly recommended!!! 👍👍👍”

“The Ice cream was very tasty.., Especially the cherry vanilla flavor.
The place was a bit crowded as it was a hot day.
Had to wait for almost 20 mins to get the ice cream.”

“Love this place! Fast delivery always, and everything is delicious!”

“Been getting their crabs for New Years Eve for more years then I can remember. It’s our family tradition! Best way to bring in the New Year that I can think of! So grateful to have such a quality place so close to home!”

“I am a food delivery person on a platform. I mostly live in northern New South Wales. I try food from various places. I haven’t eaten Japanese food for a while. I ordered a three-sushi roll at Asia Lee two days ago. Maybe it was because of 3:30 in the afternoon. My experience is: fast, good service, fresh food, and convenient parking. I will definitely try Chinese food next time I pass by here, thank you.

Parking: I forgot the exact number. It seems there are about ten parking spaces.”

“Had a couple of cheese steaks. Very nice. Ordered Old Bay fries, wish they were tossed and not drowned in it , however I did enjoy them. Ceiling fans made it chilly considering it was a cold night. Date night with hubby.”

“Love this place! The owner is awesome and the beers are fantastic”

“Shoutout to Michelle Rose for excellent service! This diner is a solid choice for breakfast. HIGHLY recommend the sausage (the hefty kind, not the thin links). French toast was on point. Pancakes were perfect. The steak for the Texas eggs benedict was cooked perfectly. I'm glad I had the hollandaise sauce on the side so I could control how much I wanted to add. Exceptionally reasonable prices. We'll definitely be back ❤️”

“Food is fresh and delicious with so many options to choose from. Chips and salsa are free with each meal ( you don’t have to pay for them), the staff is wonderful and the place is clean! Queso is a must!!”

“They have the best chicken wings of any takeout place around. Lo mein and vegetables are also sooooooo good. The food is always very delicious and fresh, definitely a go to for us!”

“We ordered a small pizza with peppers and onions via DoorDash yesterday evening.
The delivery was pretty quick.
The pizza was very good but for some reason they only put the peppers & onions on half the pizza.
Overall satisfied and would definitely order again .”

“Excellent food!!! Great service!”

“Place is great, food is awesome. Bartenders are awesome. What more do you need”

“The food was delicious and the prices are reasonable! I wanted to try another spot on a Monday because my regular spot was closed. They were very nice and the restaurant was very clean. Everything was made fresh to order. I would recommend this place.”

“I recently visited this spot wanting some ice cream after a hot day. The ice cream was very delightful and nailed the spot for what I was craving. The service was also amazing, I don't usually tend to leave reviews but this place had nothing but positive vibes, I really recommend everyone to check it out and I will for sure stop by this place again.”

“While your food is delicious, your customer service need work. Some of the younger kids rush you off the phone and when you pick up your food its even worse. no thank you, no nothing. just sign here and they walk away. almost short of bring rude”

“Lovely new restaurant. Super clean, delicious food, beautiful hand painted murals, friendly accommodating staff. Priced well, perfect portions. I had the tacos carnitas, my daughter had a quesadilla. ? Good parking, looks like they even have outdoor dining coming. What more could you want?”

“super delicioso y excelente servicio”

“Nice bar restaurant at the end of a round. We were there on a Wednesday and it was empty. We order BBQ knowing that it was not going to be fresh as the grills were not going. That said the brisket and pulled port were still good. The sweet potato fries were good as well. Little crispy. We both should have order the bbq souce on the side. Too much on for our taste but we should have asked. Great bar with a large selection of whiskey and bourbon. Service was great too. I would go back. Like to see how it is when it’s fresh.”

“Really great spot and great food. I go to this spot often for breakfast and the food is always great. Customer service is great. Price is moderate. Give it a try. There is a reason why all the older heads eats here.”

“I love this place and highly recommends for the people who are particularly looking for authentic mutton biryani and must try some of there signature appetizers chicken 65 and chicken lollipops - Hidden gem place for their prices and ”

“This sonic has provided me with great, and fast service. The drive thru was quick, the cashier was polite and friendly. The food came out hot and was enjoyable with refreshing drinks!”

“Cafe Alfredo catered a wedding for our family for 100 people with short notice on 8/14. The food was delicious!!!! It felt like that menu was planned months ago. The food was fresh and hot! Our family that came from near and far was very complimentary on the taste and quality of the food. We had penne and vodka, chicken and eggplant parm, pasta and garlic, chicken francaise and my favorite of the night shrimp linguine Alfredo! Thank you Giuseppe and team for saving the day with great food!”

“Overall it was a good experience. Maybe it was just that we came in at the lunch time for the servers, so we didn’t have the best service. But overall the service was still good”

“Tasty clean and fast service! They always acknowledge you when you walk through the door for the smile and a good morning… 🌞 once you try them you’re going to like them for sure!😎”

“The BEST Chinese food around!! Friendly staff and clean inside! We will drive the extra 15 mins to get there! Food is always fresh and hot. We’ve tried quite a few menu options and none have disappointed! General Tso, sesame chicken and the boneless ribs are our go to. The lo mein, egg rolls and the scallion pancakes are very yummy too!”

“Stopped in on Friday and the place was packed. We got a table ordered a beer and was surprised by how fast the beer came considering the crowd. At 6:00 we cashed out as our waitress Mary leaving. We couldn’t ask for a more attentive waitress. The next shift found us with Kelsey. She never stopped smiling. We never waited for anything. She was just there all the time. We ordered off the happy hour menu. Three different items and an all were served fast and delicious. The only thing is I would recommend coming Wednesday if you’re just coming for happy hour. It’s not as crowded as a little quieter. But the service and food were great.”

“I often come to this restaurant to eat. Although it has a new owner, the taste is still as delicious as ever. I will recommend friends and family to come here to eat！”

“I Would Fight a Bear for This Chinese Food

Alright, folks, gather ‘round. I have a story to tell. I recently moved back to Jersey from Florida, and if you’ve ever lived in Florida, you know two things: 1) Alligators will steal your golf balls, and 2) They have no idea how to make good Chinese food. Seriously, I don’t know what’s going on down there, but I’ve had dumplings in Florida that tasted like they had an identity crisis halfway through cooking.

But then, this place happened.

I ordered (purely in the name of science, of course), and I swear on my fortune cookie—I have seen the light.

Let’s break it down:

Pork Fried Rice – Perfectly seasoned, fluffy, with that little hint of wok magic that tells me someone back there knows what they’re doing. This isn’t just rice; this is a lifestyle choice.

10-Piece Crabmeat Rangoons – I took a bite and immediately questioned every life decision that led me to eat subpar rangoons in the past. Crispy? Check. Creamy? Check. So addictive I’d trade my Netflix password for another order? Check.

Chicken and Broccoli – I think it hugged me from the inside. The chicken was tender, the sauce was divine, and the broccoli wasn’t that sad, overcooked mess some places give you. No, this was vibrant, fresh, and ready to be devoured.

Now, here’s the thing—I don’t just like this place. I am now in a full-blown, committed relationship with this restaurant. I will be talking about it at parties. I will be bringing out-of-town guests here like I personally own stock in it. And I will not rest until I have left a five-star review on every single platform known to mankind. Google? Done. Yelp? Already there. Carrier pigeon message straight to their kitchen? Give me time.

In fact, I’m already researching pigeon care because if that’s what it takes to support this mission, then so be it. I will foster a pigeon. I will name it Lo Mein and train it to deliver handwritten praise directly to the chefs.

And to anyone who dares say anything bad about this food—I’m convinced you have burned off all your taste buds. The only possible explanation is that you’ve been eating nothing but plain porridge your entire life and now mistake "flavor" for a personal attack. Seek help. Seek seasoning. Seek this restaurant.

Whoever is back there making this food, just know—I appreciate you. I see you. I love you. Expect me back. Probably too often. Possibly enough to be concerning.

10/10. No notes. Perfection achieved.”

“Just got 2 baked haddock take-out dinners for my husband and me and we were both blown away. Also got a spicy stuffed quahog and it was perfect. All the food was hot and fresh. Highly recommend!”
