Friendly Staff & Tasty Eats…read more We were out hiking and saw the $8.75 pork sandwich with a sweet tea and chips. I like seeing a good value snack and wasn't dissatisfied at all. The blonde girl who handled our order was friendly. We snacked at the picnic tables and were in our way. We will be back here for sure.

They have a few tables to eat there. They don't have indoor space so everything is outside. Plenty of parking too. Cute little piggy light decor. They have a few things to grab on their menu. We opted for the sandwich combo. Pulled pork, chips (Lay's) and a drink for $8.75 and we also got a 8oz mac and cheese to share. You can add toppings to your sandwich like coleslaw, onions, pickles, etc. they have mild and hot level for the BBQ sauce. The food was good. I ordered their hot sauce but it really lacked the spicy kick I was hoping for. I also thought it could have a bit more meat. The Mac and cheese was good too. I would add just a bit more salt and a hint of white pepper or have condiments available. The consistency was creamy but on the soupier side. The meal size was enough but I could see how some people could say it was small. Overall definitely a place I would stop again for this deal and a quick meal if I'm traveling this way.

If you have ever driven up or down I-24 in Middle Tennessee then there is a good chance that you…read morehave seen a few Toot's billboards! This Toot's, situated at the corner of NW Broad and Medical Center Parkway is the OG for the restaurant. While there are others, there is only one original Toot's! Folks ask how I would describe this Toot's location and every time I have them picture a local Hooters without the uniform mixed with a Cracker Barrel with a Panama City Beach vibe...While I could say many other things, that usually sums it up and is pretty spot on. Toot's is definitely a brand and is well known in the area, and quite popular as they have multiple locations around the 'boro. The brand has been built off of local vibes, cheap food and friendly service. While Toot's is a local institution, there really is nothing wildly special about what they offer. Most of their menu is standard from burgers, sandwiches, wings, seafood, salads, etc...and within that menu, most of those items are fried. So, if you are counting calories, Toot's is not the spot for you! They are famous for their fried pickles, so you know we started with an order. The pickles are lightly breaded, crispy and served with ranch dipping sauce. Again, nothing special...even from their specialty item. For our mains we both got a 15 count of wings, I went cajun dry rub and my pal went buffalo. The wings were the best part of the meal for sure. They were fried well, seasoned nicely, plump and juicy...all the things you want from a wing! For our sides, my buddy went fries and I went side caesar salad. His fries were standard, but done well. My salad was a bit odd, as it was legit a side salad including onions, boiled eggs, cucumber, etc...with caesar dressing. I guess I should have been more descriptive or inquisitive when I initially ordered it. Pricing was excellent, surprisingly affordable, especially for the service sizes! Service was good. Greeter was friendly and sat us quickly, and our server was friendly, engaging and efficient. No issues with service at all. I can see the allure for the local crowd. This can be a decent spot for a well priced and filling meal, and can even be a good place to belly up to the bar and watch some sports. While I would not go out of my way to visit Toot's, I definitely wouldn't say no on occasion as a local.

If you live in the Boro and you're hunting for a wing-and-beer spot, stop scrolling and head…read morestraight to the original location on NW Broad serving up goodness since 1985. This place has bar seating, high tops, booths... basically whatever level of wing commitment you're comfortable with. We grabbed seats at the bar, and the service was quick, friendly, and on point. To kick things off, my wife ordered a frosty Blue Moon with the classic orange slice. I went with water... mainly because I needed to stay focused for the wing mission ahead. First up: Fried Dill Pickles. These were absolutely fantastic, lightly battered, crispy, flavorful, and dangerously addictive. If you skip these, you're already making bad life choices. Now for the main event... the food! I used to be a die-hard bone-in wing guy, but Toot's Buffalo-Style Chicken Fingers may have converted me. I ordered 10 fingers, 5 Mango Habanero (because apparently I enjoy sweating while eating) and 5 Honey BBQ to cool my taste buds back down. Both were finger-lickin' good, and the side of tots sealed the deal. My wife ordered the Chicken Finger Salad because she thought she was making a healthy choice... until chicken fingers showed up on top. Nice try, babe. Bottom line: if you live in the Boro, or you're heading there for college, you need to try this place. We live in Franklin and gladly make the 30-minute drive for a Toot's road trip. That should tell you everything. Wings worth driving for? That's not a meal... that's a lifestyle.

They feature pork, brisket, chicken and sausage which you can order as a sandwich, dinner or stuffed potato. I got the brisket dinner and my wife got the chicken stuffed potato. Both were on point. Reasonable prices. Friendly counter staff. Winner.

We were coming back from buying a dishwasher and pulled up to this tiny barbecue spot that used to…read morebe called Uncle Sonny's (?? still not 100% sure what it's called now, which honestly adds to the experience). No website. No branding. Just vibes, smoke, and cool accents. And some ads for discounted tickets to a community wrestling match taking place tonight. So naturally, we ordered: Brisket sandwich Pulled pork plate + 1/3 lb of sausage Fried pies (chocolate & lemon - because obviously) First impression: this is the kind of place where you trust the food immediately because the building looks like it could survive a tornado and a country album cover at the same time. Brisket sandwich -- super solid. Not trying too hard, just smoky, tender, and exactly what you want when you're in the middle of nowhere and questioning your life decisions (in a good way). Pulled pork plate -- this is where they flex a little. Juicy, good bark, and the kind of portion that makes you reconsider finishing it... and then you finish it anyway. Except my teenage daughter, who hadn't eaten anything all day except a Kodiak protein cup, didn't quite... 1/3 lb of sausage -- yeah, that was a solid addition. Smothered in a mix of mild, hot, and sweet bbq sauce, it was good without being too greasy. Fried pies -- listen. These are dangerous. Crispy, sweet, probably made by someone's grandma in the back. If you skip these, you've made a mistake. Overall: No frills. No nonsense. Just really good barbecue in a place that may or may not have a name. 5 stars for food +1 star for mystery branding I hope our dishwasher lasts a long time, but if not, we'll be sure to come back here!

I have mixed feelings…read more.. So, the food is good and all, especially the tater tots. *They are the BEST tater tots EVER!* It is kind of quiet, like, I didn't hear any music. The only sounds I heard was the sound of people talking when getting Uber Deliveries picked up and the quiet sound of them cooking food. Staff was kind and friendly. It took a while for them to make me and my dad's burgers, but there were only two chefs there. If you go you HAVE to get the tater tots! I only docked a star because the wait time it was 5-10 maybe 15 or so minutes. 9.5/10 Recommend Review #4 P.S. The wait may have been because they were closing for the night soon.

The brisket is up there with the best we've had in middle TN where we've ranged from Blake's to Shaffer Farms to most of places in and around Nashville. My wife said the turkey was hands down the best ever. It's a market style place so you pick the meats and how much you want. They sliced generously so we had plenty of left overs for another meal. The sides are a bargain at $4 and twice the size of most places. They are having issues with the space so make sure check their social media on timing in their impending move to a new location down the street.

The plate had both lean and moist cuts giving you a nice comparison. The lean brisket was delicious with a very small top line of fat, great color, and very tender. The moist cut had an incredible flavor and the marbling made this truly melt in your mouth. The bark is solid on both cuts with great spice and just enough smoke to compliment the meat. The jalapeño cheddar sausage is very mild and has good flavor. The potato salad is a bit different...very creamy and has cheddar cheese in it. The renovations are well done on the space keeping some of the old vibe and brick while making it comfortable and inviting. Really good food, picturesque location, and great people who were super friendly. The grand opening is scheduled for September 20.

I arrived for a fairly late meal (~1:45) so it wasn't super crowded. The parking lot is easy to access. There were a few people eating inside and several carryout orders that occurred during my visit. The inside is adorably decorated in your usual southern bbq joint style -- fun pig memorabilia and whatnot. They have a pretty large selection of bbq and an even larger selection of desserts. In retrospect, I definitely regret not getting a slice of cake or pie to go! I am usually a pulled pork girl, but it is pretty unusual to see smoked pulled chicken -- most places only do half or quarter birds -- and I like pulled chicken a lot, so I ventured out and ordered that! I got the smaller sized plate lunch, which comes with a piece of Texas toast and two sides. I went with curly fries and corn on the cob. Overall, the food was good! The pulled chicken was nice and smoky and the perfect serving size. It was a teeny bit dry but that's typical bbq chicken territory and nothing a good dash of creamy, peppery white bbq sauce couldn't fix. Good sauce! My corn on the cob wasn't super sweet -- probably not quite in season yet -- but it was cooked nicely and very juicy. The fries gave strooooong Arby's vibes such that I think they might actually *be* Arby's fries lol, but there's nothing wrong with that. Especially when they were cooked so fresh and came out hot and crispy! The toast was a lovely buttery companion and my sweet tea was on point. The service here though...THAT gets a 5/5, or really a 10/5 if such a thing were possible. I sometimes feel like southern hospitality is a myth or at least an oversimplification of southern social norms, but at this place it's real and sincere. The woman who took my order -- the owner, I later learned, having purchased the restaurant after years as an employee -- treated me and everyone else who walked in the doors with such warmth, kindness, interest, and attentiveness that it made my entire day. Truly everyone was made to feel so welcome. She catered to some older ladies who came in for a birthday, checked in on me in a nonjudgmental but caring way since I was by myself, and greeted regulars with a smile and by their name. She made the place feel like joy! Definitely give this place a go and enjoy the tasty food and wonderful folks. I'd happily return.

I'm never expecting a five-star meal from a buffet, but for the price, I thought it was a good value. I went on a Friday for steak and seafood night, then came back the following Sunday morning for breakfast. Dinner was under $25 and breakfast was under $20, including a drink both times. It's a Southern comfort food buffet with plenty of room and seating, though there aren't any booths. Service was very good on both visits! The good: Plenty of dinner options! As you can see, I grabbed several plates with different proteins: baked chicken, fried chicken, fried fish, meatloaf, ribs, frog legs, shrimp, and more. Plenty of sides, too--turnip greens, collard greens, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans, etc. There's also a salad bar and soup selection. Most of what I tried was good when fresh. The waitresses on both visits were amazing! Friendly, attentive, and always keeping our drinks topped off. The bad: Some food had been sitting long enough to get cold or dry, including some hard cornbread. I waited for fresh trays on a few items, and from what I saw, they replaced the food pretty often. Some batches of fried shrimp and gator bites were very salty, while others weren't. Consistency could definitely be better. Honestly, if I'm hungry and don't know exactly what I want, I'd stop by again for an affordable buffet. Worth it, imo, even if I have to wait for a few fresh items!

All I can say is it was incredible. We walked in and there was a group of musicians in the corner playing acoustic songs from multiple genres which was really relaxing and then we ordered breakfast. I got the corned beef and hash, which was amazing and my wife got the BLT which on the menu said comes with 1 pound of bacon. We thought it was a gimmick until it came to the table and it looked like something that would flip Fred Flintstone's car over. The staff was amazing and very friendly and the food again was all outstanding. It cost us $36 for breakfast for two people, and we walked out thinking that we got undercharged, that's how good it was. We will definitely be back.
