Terrific staff and food and enjoyed a gorgeous outside table on a perfect evening. Nadine was our server and she was professional from start to finish. I had the Prosciutto Dusted Seared Sea Scallops and they were delicious. They also offer a full no gluten menu for those that need it. read more

The food was wonderful. When I eat out, I like to order things that I wouldn't make myself at home... and the complexity of their salmon dish fit the bill. The sweet, smoky flavor, mustardy goodness isn't something I've found done as well anywhere else. And the fish itself was cooked perfectly. They paired the fish with the heartiness of the harvest grain side dish you see pictured. It was a huge serving, and I ate the whole thing because it was amaaaazing. My waitress was lovely and efficient, and I also didn't feel rushed. What made it a four star experience rather than 5 stars for me was the ambiance. The music was horrible--like 1980's big hair band type music. It was such a bizarre contrast to the rest of the upscale ambiance, which looked & felt more like a steakhouse. To my chagrin, it wasn't just one "off" song either...the awful selections kept coming throughout the meal. The music gave it more of a dive bar vibe, and it was so completely offputting that I left sooner than I otherwise would have. It honestly gives me pause when I think about coming again. And that's a real shame because I'd like to bring others here to share the amazing eats. I may try it again on another day. But if the music is the same, I'll be walking right back out the door. read more

The team of front of the house workers do just that-provide customers with outstanding service But the food "takes the cake". Really great job making sure the restaurant is there to provide customers with the impression that the read more

The Sunday brunch at 3 is consistently good. Try the brunch bowl or breakfast burger. In the warmer weather enjoy their beautiful outdoor patio area, which are great for grabbing a drink. The lunch and dinner options, while fine, I still view as overpriced. I'd expect better flavor for the price tag. read more

In the past this was a good restaurant. Tonight's take out was not good. This $16 salad came with a tiny (laughable) bit of romaine AND they gave us ranch dressing instead of blue cheese. For referrence, I have included the romaine I luckily had from my own fridge to supplement this disappointing meal. read more

While our first visit was a miss, our second visit was SO much better. Their steak tips and pasta are winners in my opinion. They need to keep working on their salads. The place is very welcoming with great staff. There's just something about the decor that feels a bit off to me. But - it's hands down the best choice in a few square miles in this area. read more

This place is excellent for a date night or special family celebration. Incredible service from the waitstaff and the food is top notch. My favorite is the braised short rib over either risotto or the delicious creamy mashed potatoes. Add this place to your list. A must go! read more

Tell the people who dine there to take a photo - It'll last longer ! A lot of people at the bar are rude and stare at others and laugh - not a place I'd recommend with waiters/waitresses acting alongside. 1/5 read more

An Unforgettable Dining Experience From the very first moment we stepped into 3, we knew the night was going to be special. We were immediately welcomed by the manager, Elyse, whose professionalism, warmth, and genuine hospitality set the tone for the entire evening. The atmosphere was inviting, comfortable, and perfectly balanced between upscale and relaxed--and the staff mirrored that energy from start to finish. Our service was truly outstanding: friendly, knowledgeable, attentive, and always pleasant. Every question we had was answered with confidence, and the recommendations were spot-on. You could tell the staff genuinely cared about creating an exceptional experience. The evening began with perfectly crafted and beautifully presented martinis, followed by warm, flavorful focaccia bread that immediately set the stage for what was to come. The calamari appetizer was incredibly fresh, tender, and packed with flavor, and the charcuterie board was both visually stunning and deliciously curated. The entrees were nothing short of amazing. The ribeye was cooked to absolute perfection--melt-in-your-mouth tender and bursting with flavor. The pesto tortellini was rich, creamy, and indulgent, with every bite leaving us wanting more. What started as a simple date night turned into an experience we couldn't stop talking about--and one we can't wait to repeat. If you're looking for incredible food, exceptional service, and a truly memorable night out, look no further. We'll absolutely be back again very soon. Highly recommend. read more

This was our first visit to 3 Restaurant while visiting our daughter in Franklin, Massachusetts. The large restaurant features a full bar and ample seating. The food quality is excellent, and the menu offers an extensive selection, from salads and soups to pastas, fish, burgers, and more. I began with the delicious clam chowder. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Prices are reasonable, and the standalone restaurant has plenty of parking available. read more

Re-visited this restaurant in the past summer for a girls' dinner and had a great time in their outdoor patio area (later had to move in due to rain). Very friendly service, great atmosphere, decent food. Solid choice for the area. read more

We went for a goodbye lunch for a colleague. I have never been before and man I can't wait to go back. There is plenty of of parking so no worries about that. There was a large group of us but the server had no problem making sure our waters and drinks were full and everyone was happy. This is a huge place with a huge menu. You can sit at the bar and enjoy a burger or sit at a table and enjoy a fancy dinner. There is something for everyone They started us off with some really good bread and oil to dip in. For my lunch I had a French dip that was out of this world. It's a great place and I highly recommend it. I will be back for sure. read more

Very disappointing visit here. My friend and I always sit and share apps, wherever we go to catch up. She wanted to try 3 because a client of hers said it was good. We ordered two appetizers, and cocktails. After the appetizers, the bartender asked if we were ready to order entrees...she specifically asked about entrees to which I replied that we will just be sharing appetizers. She then proceeded to whisper to her other bartender, and they both kept glancing at us. When the other bartender came over, we ordered two more appetizers, to which she replied, "you know, the half price appetizers are only valid one per person. Do you still want to order that?" .....what the actual f is wrong with people in the hospitality service these days?? So incredibly presumptuous and rude. We never even inquired about the happy hour deal. Yes, yes we would still like to order what we ordered, and no, we will never be back for your mediocre food and drinks. read more

Issues This restaurant is good, just not very good. The atmosphere and food are more in line with what I would consider good bar food. I've been there three times, and noticed that thee was a general inconsistency in the food and the service. Once it was really good, the other time about average, and the other time less than average. But for a neighborhood restaurant and bar, there isn't any reason not to go. Tip: Don't try to sit at the bar as the same regular crowd seems to overtake the area and sit and drink cheap bottles of beer when there are customers "us" that are there to spend real money and the staff just didn't care. Tell these cheap jabroni's to sit away from the bar if they're just drinking. Thanks read more

I ordered pan seared scallops with risotto. Just horrible ! 5 small scallops on rice. This was not risotto. It was more like minute rice w/ mushrooms and peppers. It was dry and bland. For $34 other than a few scallops the rice got tossed. Don't waste your money. read more

I am writing this review a few weeks late. We traveled from Pembroke to Franklin for dinner on a friend's recommendation. Mary who served us was pleasant, timely & knowledgeable! Mushroom soup was a special and, in my opinion, unique! Having culinary knowledge & experience I knew when Mary said they have a Sous Chef that it was likely to be very good and it was absolutely delicious! I ordered the sliced Pork Loin with cranberry compote sauce that was a special and it was the best I have ever had! My wife ordered swordfish and she said her dish was very good too. Dessert was a homemade brownie with ice cream that was amazing! Even with a 2 hour round trip drive we wouldn't hesitate to return soon! read more

Quiet but friendly restaurant and bar. The bartender was attentive, and eating at the bar felt not much different than at a table, with exception of some friendly banter with a couple of patrons. read more

Very good valentines day dinner. Great service, ambiance, and accommodating to allergies.

You call and schedule your appointment days in advance, at 7:30p.m. You arrive at the scheduled time, and your reservation isn't available. 38minutes have already passed. Your night, which was supposed to be a special Friday, ends up being a disaster. read more

Limited menu, pitch black room, high prices, horrible attitudes at the bar. Not interested in the nightlife of the bartenders, but they don't mind sharing the details. Save your money, and find real Italian food! read more

A fantastic place to eat on the patio. Servers and hoses are great. You can split meals without a charge. The chicken parmesan was exceptionally good. Five stars all the way around read more

The Thanksgiving dinner was horrible and was way over priced. Turkey was tough, roast beef chewy and tasted funny, even mashed potatoes were clumpy. So disappointed after a good experience last year. We won't do that again! read more

Very good food! Excellent service. Ambience isn't nice but gets very noisy in the dining room in the evening.

Caribbean chicken tenders and the balsamic tomato and bread appetizer are the best. I like the mood lighting...Only giving 3 stars because it gets really crowded and loud on weekend nights so you kinda have to fight for a spot at the bar. Even if you get a table it's really loud and hard to have an actual conversation on Fri and Sat nights. Not a first date spot but maybe fine for families read more

We recently had dinner at 3 restaurant in Franklin. We thought the entrees were excellent, however; the service had a couple of bumps in it, the server was in a hurry most of the time, and just doing the basics with service, dropping off items as needed. My wife had accidentally spilled a glass of wine, which I thought should have been refilled. When the check came, it was literally dropped off at the table and the server walked onto to the next table, and no thank you. I just thought the service experience should have been more engaging. read more

Always a great experience! Elise is a fantastic Manager, staff is always accommodating! Love the outside area! Thanks Kim

This place has the best patio around and is great in the summer! Great drinks and apps! The dinners are good but a little pricey.

Wow! 3 has really stepped up their game with a huge wine menu and a bigger better outside patio which includes a bar with seating. Long overdue if you have a have been a regular for years. Yes 3 has been around well over 16 years with great service and a well thought out menu. A stepped up dining oasis in a area overrun with fast food burger and pizza shops. The delicious appetizers that made them popular are still here like my Thai Chicken skewers. Tender skewers season with herbs and a flavorful peanut dipping sauce. As usual delicious. Just one annoyance. Just because they have a out patio lounge area, don't show up looking like you just got up from a towel at the beach! My. goodness. read more
