    Mac n cheese

    Went to the new location on the square. [[HIGHLIGHT]]While it is clean and beautiful with very friendly staff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was awful today. Everything was so extremely greasy and salty. The one good item was the corn nuggets but the wings and friend pickles so greasy and salty. Very sadden by this

    Always good, it's our go to place for wings in the Boro.. the service can be spotty but the food is awesome. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cool vibe on inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Probably the best one of the chain though.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great atmosphere in a perfect location on the square.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Jalapeño burger is the best thing on the menu. It has the perfect amount of spice. Our waitress was awesome. Always checking on us.

    The food overall was very tasty! Unfortunately, the service was lacking. I ordered a to-go order over the phone and was quoted a wait time of 15-20 minutes. We were on the way home from a workout for my daughter and both starving. Unfortunately, when I arrived to pick up my food (over 20 minutes later) the gentlemen at the cash register said "OMG I never sent your order in when you called." After that he proceeded to submit my order and did not request for it to be made on the fly nor was I offered anything for the error or the fact that I had to wait another 20 plus minutes for the food. While he was apologetic, it was not a great experience. They were quite busy with only three people in working so it seems they were pretty understaffed which likely led to the mistake. I would definitely try Jefferson's again in hopes of having better service as the food was tasty.

    It isn't a bad spot at all. We came here on a Friday evening, and it was pretty packed. There is also limited seating. It isn't too far from campus. I tried their raw oysters, baked Cajun oysters, Chicken tenders, and burger. I didn't think their oysters were bad at all. Their chicken tenders were perfectly golden, fried. Their French fries were good, and the burger was pretty good. Tbh, I came here because I was craving oysters and I found it on Yelp. It popped up when I yelped oysters. It's a small place so everyone pretty much shares a restroom.

    Solid wings. Good sauces. Hot fries. Might try a burger next time. Nothing special, but just good.

    Good is pretty decent, wings are not bad. But overall far more pricey than you would expect.

    Bad Daddy's is hands down my favorite restaurant in Murfreesboro. Even though it's known for…read moreburgers, I almost always order Emilio's Chicken, and it's honestly my favorite item on the menu. If you're someone who doesn't always want a burger at a burger restaurant, it's definitely worth trying. Another menu item that surprised me was the deviled eggs. They're a unique twist on a classic appetizer and not something you see at most restaurants. The food is consistently good, the menu has a lot of variety, and it's one of the few places I keep coming back to without getting tired of it. Every time someone asks me for a restaurant recommendation in Murfreesboro, Bad Daddy's is at the top of my list.

    Oversalted food! The burger patty was overcooked, salty, and…read morecrumbly instead of served as a medium well. I got the buttermilk bacon for my burger and it should only be served as a side or appetizer. The half slice of bacon is breaded so it is over an inch thick and there were 4 pieces on the patty. There is no way this could fit in a normal sized mouth if you add any lettuce or other condiments. I asked for Brie and got one 1" slice. Definitely not what I expected for a $3 up charge. The sweet potato fries were inedible due to the salt they were doused with. I will, however, recommend the house fried chips with onion dip and it was a shame to have to leave it since there was so much of it. It probably would be great in place of mayo on a burger. I also observed 5-6 people wandering in and out of the back that weren't wearing uniforms but seemed to know everyone as they stood around chatting. Why??? Not very professional for food service. One young man in particular kept running his hand thru his long hair as he stood near the staff area for drinks and the pass. Ugh! There was also another guy with hair down to his waist that was pulled back but man!, that ponytail was swinging loose everywhere from the kitchen to the bar. Again, ugh! Neither of those would I want near where my food was being prepared. The menu is a fun looking and eclectic mess but we won't be back. I prefer a food be under-salted as one can always add more if needed and the hair completely turned me off.

    While visiting Panther Creek Brews there was a non-descript food truck there with a hand-written…read moremenu. I took a look at the menu and it didn't really resemble what most food trucks offer. The offerings indicated someone who cooked using a bit of flair and looked like they knew how to enhance a dish with sauces. I selected the Rosemary Chicken Bacon Ranch Quesadillas. Now these are not like any quesadilla I've had as a "appetizer" at many restaurants, this was a creative melding of intricate flavors into a quasi-soft shell taco/quesadilla. The grilled chicken had great flavor and the bacon and ranch really complemented the quesadilla. The tortilla was perfect, slightly crisp, and held the entire quesadilla together and didn't fall apart after the first bite. To top it all off...I got to meet the owners/operators Frankie and Tony Wong. This couple works hard, serve up great food, and are really fun to talk to. Highly recommend you like and subscribe to their FB Page. Their menu is a dry erase board and changes daily, I can't wait to see what special item they will create next. https://www.facebook.com/Myrootsfoodtruck

    This food truck stopped by today for lunch so I went out and grabbed a bite. It was pretty good and…read moredefinitely large portions! The TRIPLE LAYER TOMATO AND BASIL GRILLED CHEESE ON SOURDOUGH was delish! Soft, with a crunchy outside and surprisingly not too much bread. A good amount of cheese and flavor. I'd definitely recommend. CRINKLE CUT FRIES were over cooked. I'm sad to say I didn't even finish them, which is rare for me since this cut of fries is my absolute favorite! Just too crunch and the flavor was heavy on the oil, rather than potato. Total cost was $9 before tip, which made it one of the least expensive items on the truck. Customer service was professional. Food was made quickly and from order. Pretty good, IMO.

Tap in below: -Being from Nevada, we had stop in to support a former Nevadan owned business. Ron just got a knee surgery and was hard at work!!! Anna was in the kitchen running around and all hands were on deck making sure everyone was tended to, and had not just phenomenal service, but phenomenal food! The sense of community spoke mountains as my fiancée was wished a happy birthday by a daughter of a firefighter, we watched her open the door for a local who came in, and as beautiful as that was.... Ron was known by all the locals and this restaurant spoke community from the minute you walked in. As for the food: -Steak plate: 5/5 Well seasoned, home cooking. If you've walked into your home and you had mom make you a hot plate of food, that's what this experience reminded me of. Home. There were smiles as we ate, flavors that reminded us of home cooking, just a classic diner experience that makes you feel a sense of community. It was just a perfectly cooked over medium egg, a scramble of steak and potatoes that was seasoned well, just a quality dining experience. -Chicken and waffles: 4.5/5 Southern classic. Breading was the only thing I'd change on the chicken but a fluffy waffle met with sweet syrup and a crispy chicken. Savory meets sweet and it's just done simple and done right. Chatting with Ron and Anna, the community is blessed to have them in this town and the twin yolk is somewhere I'd say is a true hole in the wall you'd miss unless you knew about it. Hoping this provides the visibility for you to share this heart warming experience as well.
