Pollo Mi Tierra
Preston M.

Food was very good, in terms of Mexican it might just be the best one in Franklin. I loved the salsa bar and the the menu selections. Our server was very sweet and very helpful. The restaurant was very quiet but probably won't be for too long once the word gets out. The serving sizes were very nice for the price too, you get what you pay for! Will we be back? Yes will probably become a regular stop!

Great food and friendly service. Our waitress was very nice. Fast service. We will come back when ever we are in the area

Chili relleno.  ORDER THIS!
Michael W.

Most Mexican restaurants in NC are bad. Many REALLY BAD. So it was a great surprise to find one that was good! This is in the same building of countless other Mexican restaurants. They have several lunch specuals Mon to Fri starting at $7.49. The Chili relleno here was wonemderful and have not had one that good in at least 15 years and Im always looking!

Chile verde

Excellent! This will be our new go to for Mexican. The tacos were packed with flavor. Chile verde was super tender and the sauce was delicious. Very authentic. Lots of leftovers!Great service and super clean. JUST GO!

Chori Dip
Linda C.

Greatest Mexican food we have had in a very long time. Try the Monster Chimichanga or the Enchilada's Chipotle. The Chori Dip is also incredible. Big portions and extremely good. Dining area is newly done and clean. The service was fantastic. Our server was fast and friendly.

Stopped by for lunch at 12:30 for lunch and it's locked up, no cars out front. Sign on the door showed it should be open for lunch.

Looks like a dump on the outside but extremely clean on the inside! Super clean, great service and the best Mex I've ever had! 5 stars

My wife & I ate here when visiting the area. Glad we did! The food was pretty great and the…read moreservice excellent. Very friendly staff who made good recommendations. I had the chicken tenders, with mac n-cheese and chicken & dumplings as sides. My wife had tenders with mashed potatoes and green beans. Both plates also included a biscuit w/ jam. Oh, and definitely get the cheese curds if you can! The restaurant has good seating and was very clean when we visited. Very happy we decided to stop in!

After an underwhelming (but pleasant enough) stroll at The Island in Pigeon Forge, we skipped the…read morepricey dining options and drove back up to Gatlinburg for what turned out to be the real highlight of the night: Mama's Chicken Kitchen. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed with genuine Southern hospitality. The space is cozy and shared with J.O.E. And Pop's Sun Shoppe, but we came for one thing--the fried chicken. And wow. Crispy, perfectly seasoned Southern fried chicken with truly homemade sides that tasted like Sunday dinner at grandma's. Generous portions, very reasonable prices, and fast, friendly service. I ordered unsweetened tea; they apologized when kit was temporarily out and quickly brewed a fresh batch. It took a few minutes, but it was absolutely worth the wait. Clean, welcoming, and downright delicious. Next time we're in the Smokey Mountain, this stop is Jon-negotiable. Easily some of the best fried chicken in Tennessee.

4:59PM I placed an on-line order using the KFC app. That order was not filled until 5:41PM…read more I went inside right after placing the order. On two occasions I've had to wait on staff to give me my order that I've observed sitting on a back counter for a period of time. I had to ask both times if that was my order. I didn't want to go thru that hassle again tonight so I went right in. I observed minimal staffing and two trainees. Despite my order being submitted at 4:59, I watched numerous drive thru customers get their orders filled while mine was given lower priority. One employee kept running past me to carry out orders to waiting vehicles saying they were short staffed but doing the best they could. I asked who appeared to be a shift manager who gets priority and she told me the drive thru orders. The whole time I stood at the counter watching this, customers were coming in and placing their own orders (which were also filled before mine). I understand employees not showing up for work and being short staffed. I also think the manager should then adjust work flow that staffing can accommodate instead of making those with on-line orders wait an hour. One customer was a DoorDash deliverer who also had to wait alongside me while drive thru customers were served. I had to demand to speak to someone about how long my order was taking and the prioritization of drive thru customers. Once that happened my order was finally filled but then I was informed they had no biscuits left for my order. To top it off, when I finally got home, my potatoes lacked gravy and the chicken tenders were dried out from sitting too long in the warming oven. It seems to me that management should have made adjustments due to the short staffing. As a minimum, a sign should have be posted to prevent walk ins. I also don't understand prioritization of drive thru customers. I shouldn't have to stand for nearly an hour at the counter watching numerous cars go thru the drive thru getting their orders filled.

So I went in on Wednesday 10/1 around 6:30 pm. There were about 3 parties ahead of me, and…read moretruthfully they were all pretty rude, but the girl behind the counter handled them with patience and respect, and she acted like a total professional. I wish I had gotten her name, but I've seen her there a few times and she's always done a great job. One of the other parties complained about some of the food and he was yelling at her to the point where I almost said something, but she handled it perfectly, and by the end of it he was laughing and joking with her. She handled the rush great, she handled everyone's bad attitudes really well, and she greeted every customer with a smile whether she was bringing out food, cleaning the lobby, or mopping the floor. She never got flustered, her confidence never wavered, and I was genuinely impressed. I've worked in food service for many years, and I know how thankless of a job it is, and how customers often teach you like you're less than human. Truthfully though I'm giving this 4 stars and not 5 because the food was honestly not the freshest. Normally I just wouldn't leave a review, but that girl's customer service genuinely impressed me and couldn't go unnoticed, so whoever you are, thank you for making me feel welcomed every time I go in there, and whoever is paying her, needs to find a way to pay her more if you want to keep her because a lot of other places would love to have her. Thank you again and I will definitely be back!
