    I love this place. The atmosphere is inviting and the staff treats you like family. We made a reservation went with a group of 6. We were seated within minutes of arriving. The comfort food is good, but it's really the genuine friendly service that distinguishes this restaurant from others.

    Such a wonderful experience!! The bartender, who was my server last night, was amazing! I couldn't say enough good things about him! Great food, fast service, amazing drinks, and a nice dim decor for dinner.

    Country fried steak. Cole slaw and carrots

    Food was great. service was great. Interior was very nice. The ribs came out and I thought I had ordered a full rack.

    Disappointed with how small the menu is. Service was good, the restaurant itself, not so much. I miss the old menu.

    We've been driving by this place for years (at least 25 years) and finally decided to stop in last…read morenight, and I'm glad we did. We were greeted right away by the owner and seated in a comfortable booth in the back. The space offers a nice mix of tables, booths, and bar seating. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from the start. After we ordered, she brought out a basket of biscuits, three for the two of us, which was a bit curious, but no complaints here. The second basket came soon after the first. They were light, slightly sweet, and really good. For my entrée, I went with the Louisiana Bayou Shrimp with Crawfish with a side of corn. Wow, great flavor with just the right amount of kick, and they didn't skimp on the shrimp or crawfish. Portion size was spot on. My wife kept it a bit more traditional with the Southern Fried Chicken Salad, which was fresh and very well done. Safe to say, we won't wait another 30 years to come back. I've already got my eye on the blueberry cobbler next time. If you live in Franklin, don't make the same mistake we did, give this place a try sooner rather than later. Cheers!

I would first suggest the gumbo, great flavors and not too spicy. If you aren't overly hungry, the gumbo bowl could certainly be a meal. I wanted to sample more of the menu, so I ordered the smoked turkey with their popular "comeback sauce". The sandwich was very good, but I'd suggest the sauce on the side as I wasn't a fan! If you're in the mood for spice, try the hot chicken sandwich. The burgers were also well liked by our table. I have never liked oysters, but they appear to be famous for them - they have a count of how many oysters they've sold up on the wall! If you enjoy oysters, I'd say give them a go. 55 South is in a great area, there is so much to see and do. I'd highly recommend checking it out. We will be back!

I recently tried the fried strips and mac & cheese and really enjoyed both. Everything was packaged well and still hot when we got home about 10 minutes later.

The dining area was noticeably dirty, with multiple tables covered in visible crumbs, food, and trash, even though it wasn't busy. It made the whole experience feel uncomfortable and honestly pretty off-putting while trying to eat. This hasn't been the cleanest location on past visits but because we've been in hospitality we've tried to give some grace and have come back again, but it was especially noticeable this time. Food was mixed - the tenders were fine, but the nachos were much lighter on toppings than usual and the jalapeños, onion, and lettuce were very roughly chopped to the point I ended up picking a lot of it out. I also found a bone in my chicken, which was concerning because it was a good size. Hoping this was just an off day, but the cleanliness is something that really needs attention. For now, we might be changing up locations if we're craving Waldo's chicken.

    After reading other reviews and based on my own experience, I've seriously considered whether this…read moreis a place worth returning to. Between pricing, service concerns, and overall experience, I didn't see enough consistency to justify frequent visits. Twin Peaks is disappointing overall and not somewhere I would recommend for lunch, celebrations, or anyone expecting consistent, professional service. Exterior & First Impression Most locations I've seen have decent curb appeal, but this visit didn't fully meet that expectation. The surrounding area felt somewhat neglected, and the parking lot didn't leave a strong first impression. Atmosphere Inside, the restaurant smelled strongly of stale beer and smoke and was extremely loud, with no real effort to manage volume, making conversation difficult. The overall atmosphere felt geared toward a very specific crowd and came across as dated rather than broadly welcoming. Food Food was average. Some items were fine, but overall the menu leans heavy, fried, and doesn't feel aligned with the price point or the wait times. Nutritionally, there are limited lighter options, which makes it less appealing for repeat visits. Service Service was the biggest issue. It was slow, disorganized, and poorly communicated. Even when it didn't appear busy, we waited a long time with little to no updates and had to follow up multiple times just to get basic information. Orders can take a long time, so if your are on lunch and in a hurry- go elsewhere. Some staff were polite, but the experience felt inconsistent and transactional, with noticeable differences in attentiveness throughout the restaurant. Management When concerns were raised, management felt dismissive and unresponsive, with little effort to resolve issues in the moment. Stronger focus on communication, empathy, and service recovery would significantly improve the experience. Overall, the experience felt inconsistent and not well managed. Between long waits, a loud environment, pricing concerns, and lack of responsiveness, it doesn't feel like a place I would choose to return to regularly. We left frustrated and wouldn't come back. Bottom Line The only positives were comfortable seating and a few decent menu items, but it didn't come close to outweighing the negatives. If you're comfortable with the concept and just want a place to watch sports, it may work. However, for consistent service, fair value, and a more balanced dining experience, there are better options.
