Charming little diner! Actually much bigger inside than I thought. Lots of booths, plus tables- including two that could hold a group of eight. Plus a tiny counter. I wanted to sit there but there were no open seats. They've got a real honest to goodness jukebox. I was sorely tempted to drop some money into it, but since I was solo on my first visit, obviously not a regular, plus it was Sunday morning, I opted against it. Next time with courage. Service was prompt and food came quickly. Eggs over easy were closer to over medium, alas. But everything was fresh and tasty. Coffee was hot and strong. Refill was offered. I brought my husband back a fried bologna sandwich on Texas toast. He devoured it quickly and said it was excellent. Lots of kitschy decor with a dual theme: Coffee mugs, and the UK Wildcats. Restaurant is attached to (but independent of) a convenience store so there's a good amount of parking. Cash only. I'll return!

I am a sucker for local mom and pop restaurants and this is one in Franklin. I love how they support our schools and town. Make sure to get there early they are usually packed with a line. The parking is great plenty and attached go a gas station. The menu is large and offers breakfast and lunch. I love the soup beans. The boys had a great breakfast prior to kicking off there baseball season with plenty of packages and sausage if you do decide to eat here no it's super cheap.prices buy great quality of food and they only take cash

Soup Beans with Cornbread, Onions and Peppers. Side Salad with Ranch.

I found out about Mom's when Mom visited our deli. Mom's Restaurant turned out to be exactly what I had been looking for sinceiving to Ohio 10 years ago. I absolutely loved the soup beans and cornbread. The kids had a Mickey Mouse pancake and French toast. Everybody lives it!! I can't wait to get back and try the omelettes. Mom is super nice, she gave the grandkids two pieces of gum for giving her a hug. I'm definitely going to make this a frequent dining option.

Had breakfast here today. It was fabulous. For 10.00 I had 2 Eggs, bacon, home fries and biscuits and gravy. I added sausage and grits. It was sooo good. Mom even stopped by to say hi. Don't miss this gem hidden away in Frankin OH

Mom's menu, under plexiglass on the table.

A classic diner. Mom's is an institution. Best for breakfast, ok for lunch. CASH ONLY.

Places located in a strip mall while it did have good reviews it was in a seemingly seedyD edge of town. It's been my experience anytime you're near a convenience store that has those weird LED lights strong about the windows it's not the best area but I digress. The parking lot is super weird and it seems like you just kind of Park wherever you want there's no real method and it seems like they lose out on about 15 parking spots because it's not painted. The place is decorated rather nicely and they have a lot of Bourbons I really enjoy Corona na but nobody seems to carry it and this place was no exception so I had a Stella na instead. My wife and I were not famished so we both ordered a pretty simple house salad and we split a plate of chicken tenders which came with fries and coleslaw. You really can't screw up a salad too badly and they did pretty good here the chicken tenders were way overcooked chicken should not be that tough and you can tell by the breading that it was a lot darker than it was supposed to be but I still ate it. Not that it wasn't inedible I just wish it was not cooked as long. Pretty good portion of french fries coleslaw seems like it was standard food service coleslaw. Although I'm not drinking anymore they did have a whole boatload of Bourbons which in my younger days I probably would have tested quite a few of them so their name is true to the inventory. Music was a tad loud I kind of wish they had the ami jukebox where you can take it over and play your music either that or put the baseball game on something like that. Only reason for four stars was the overcooked chicken tenders. Decent place.

It was nearly 12:00 noon with only one server who was working her but off to keep up and let me tell you she did. She was the only one in the dining area and did an amazing job. I don't know what they pay her but it isn't enough. She was around my age and probably in her 60's. She rocked it and it would probably take a half a dozen of this newer generation to even come close to taking care of the same amount of people. She brought me my drink and in no time my pizza came out. I was shocked to see the size of these two slices and immediately knew that I would need a box for a slice. The pizza was my go to pepperoni and sausage which had plenty of sauce which I like. The pepperoni was delicious and kind of crispy with I like. The sausage was delicious as well and had a nice Italian spice to it. I was pleased by the taste of the sauce which had a slight zing to it. Not a spicy zing, but a pleasant zing. After I had my slice my server brought me a box to take the second piece home in. I will be delighted to have it again tomorrow. Don't pass this one up because I think most would appreciate the flavor and atmosphere.

These were more like a steak fry cut than wedges, but man alive were they good. An actual fresh cooked sweet potato. I choose that option often and these were the absolute best I have ever tasted. The burgers were excellent though they use leaf lettuce instead of iceberg. I took the barrel sauce on the side. It is a spicy ketchup aioli and went well on the burger and for dipping potatoes. I also got some mayo on the side, happy to report no charge on that as some places do. The Reuben balls were out of this world. Plenty of meat, cheese and kraut with the proper amount of crunchy breading. I could even taste caraway so it was just like mini hot Reuben sandwiches. All the above food items are highly recommended. Looking at the redesigned menu it seems they want to stress restaurant over bar which is as it should be with this quality of food. The atmosphere would be enhanced in my opinion if the staff dressed up a bit. They were all extremely casually dressed. The main dining room is all tables; if you want a booth there are a few at the rear of the bar side. They have a good sized outdoor space, but a view of Central Avenue in Middletown does not really grab me. There were a lot of people dining outside. Our waitress was very enthusiastic about the food - with good reason- and answered many questions. She checked on us appropriately though the food was delivered by other people. I don't like that practice. There was one wrinkle, my husband wanted the baked potato but his burger showed up with fries. The correct item came shortly, with apologies, and we got to keep the fries too! We will gladly return and you should too.

Both were absolutely delicious! They make both in house. We ordered: **"Chicken Platter ($17). It came with, Chicken Shawarma, rice, Falafel, Hummus, Grape Leaves, Tzatziki Sauce, Garlic Sauce & Cucumber Salad. ***Side order of Baba Ghanoush & Pita ($7) ***Chicken Wrap ($12). It came with fries and Chicken Shawarma. It came with other toppings but our son only wanted the chicken and pita. ***Lamb Wrap ($10). It came with Fries. It had Tzatziki, Onion, Pickles, Red Cabbage, Tomatoes, & Tahini Sauce. All our food was freshly made, absolutely delicious, very flavorful, and served hot. We got our order to go. The only negative is they served the pitas in a brown paper lunch bag. The bag was not food safe since the bag was made from recycled materials. Usually places will wrap the pitas in aluminum foil or a sandwich bag, or put it on top of your food. We ended up not eating the pitas. I'm sure they tasted good since everything else did. We will definitely be back and highly recommend the place!

Hummus Mediterranean has enjoyable, fresh tasting cuisine, that needs to change its vibe…read more Service: fantastic! The gentleman behind the counter was excited and knowledgeable, and offered a spicy chicken shawarma sample. If you are sick of crappy service elsewhere, dine here! Food: the fresh herbs and pickled veggies really make a difference! And the crispy but not overdone falafel? Excellent. Probably the best falafel since I moved out of metro Detroit. I found the shawarma sample to be on the dry side. Ambiance: I will admit I almost didn't go inside, based on the exterior. All the graphics and posters remind me of restaurants on the Detroit border, where they are trying to entice people in, in dubious areas. I get they want people to see the food, but it'd be nice to see more of the interior, which reminds me more of a deli. I sat outside, which is ideal, but there was something about their fence that was giving cemetery. All in all, Hummus Mediterranean Food is a very good place for a quick & healthy lunch!
