Ruby Sunshine is the kind of place every neighborhood needs! A friendly, happy breakfast/lunch gathering spot, where everyone is welcome. The only draw back is that so many people love it! So, you will likely wait to be seated, especially on the weekends. PRO TIP: Use the Yelp Wait list!!! Their biscuits are an art form. They have perfected them! Large, pillowy, melty, et al. I put the French toast in the same category. And their mimosas and Bloody Marys are spot on! Two more words: CANDIED BACON. yesssssss The location is awesome. Right in the middle of the charming downtown Franklin area. Come for the biscuits, stay for the surrounding shops! read more

Picked up granny for some breakfast at Ruby's. The breakfast tacos were tasty. And Hannah was so sweet and patient with us.

Great food - but took FOREVER to get our food. After ordering it still took 40 minutes for our food definitely worth reserving a table and ordering quickly. read more

AMAZING BRUNCH!! Came here for a Saturday morning brunch with some new friends and had the best time! We got the seasonal beignets to start, they were Brandied Cherry Chocolate Beignets. Delicious!! A friend mine got their winter mimosa flight. All 4 of the mimosas looked so good! I ended up tasting a couple and ordered the Brandied Cherry Mimosa! Very tasty! For my meal, I got the Southern Breakfast. It was pretty basic-- eggs, potatoes, bacon, a biscuit, and a fried green tomato! It was $11.50 which I thought was a little high for the amount I was served, but it was yummy!! Our server was fantastic and great at recommending items on the menu!! Will be back for sure! read more

This place is amazing. You first have to start with the bacon candy. The bananas foster French toast was amazing. The fried green tomatoes on the sandwiches gave an additional crunch that made everything taste great. Our waiter, Kyle did a fantastic job.!!! read more

This place really let me down! I was so excited to come for my birthday breakfast based on all of the positive reviews I've seen, but it was very underwhelming. So what did I enjoy? The decor was bright and inviting which I loved (1 star). The creamy vanilla spiced latte. DELICIOUS!!! The nutmeg, the whip cream, and the smoothness... was a dream! (2 stars). After that, not one thing impressed me The peach bellini was okay. My salmon omelet was good (not the best or ther worst I've had), but the biscuit was huge and hard, and the potatoes, although cooked perfectly, had zero flavor. I tasted the trifecta, but the entire plate was cold. Breakfast should be served hot, but not one thing we ordered was delivered hot, everything was luke warm at best. If it was hot, maybe I'd have a different experience, but for now... I wouldn't need to come back here again. read more

Great place! Stopped in for the breakfast tacos and Migas, enjoyed both, hit the spot. Make sure to grab an AWARD winning bloody Mary and I highly highly recommend the Lavendar Paloma, my favorite. Behind the bar Buurbon and Cole were fun and the right amount of chatty. read more

Let's kick this off with the negatives. The person who answers their phone and the bartender need a lesson in customer service. Both cut you off mid-sentence and both are very short in their response. Maybe overworked and underpaid, but the service was not great. The food is good but in my experience, the service needs to improve. read more

The service here was excellent! The young woman who waited on us was friendly and outgoing. I had the chicken eggs Benedict as it was her recommendation however, I also did the pork. The chicken was much better. read more

Very flavorful. Great variety Friendly staff. Definitely worth stopping in. Had the BBQ Shrimp Benedict. Excellent read more

Server was nice, but seemed overwhelmed as he was the only server we really saw and the restaurant was fairly busy on a Tuesday at 11am. Food came out cold and very salty. Pancakes were not good, nor was shrimp and grits. The biscuits and beignets I would order again. The server took the shrimp and grits off the tab which was much appreciated and he did try to be as attentive as he could. read more

Great food and service!! The menu has so many options there is no way you won't find something on it that you like. Also a ton of drink options. Great casual place to take the family. We will definitely be back!! Thanks to our server Kyle K for the great service! read more

YESSSS I have been a couple times. Once when there was outside seating with tablet umbrellas and that was amazing and another time inside. Our most recent trip we sat at the bar for some drinks first then went for a table. The sweet heat chicken was really good, run of the mill take on chicken and waffles. I would probably get that again! Although the cinnamon swirl pancakes were calling to me, maybe I'll get that next time!! Drinks were good, food was good, I'll be back for sure! read more

Super please! Excellent service, pretty fair pricing, and the biscuits are absolutely insane!!!!

Oh. Em. Gee. Please can I eat here every day? This place was incredible, and even better, it was SO reasonably priced. This day and age, I appreciate a reasonably priced brunch in the Nashville area. We ordered some of the Goo Goo Cluster pancakes for the table - they were on special. If you don't order these; you'll be sorry. Holy moly. Just do it. I can't say much more. I ordered a three little pigs omelet with cheesy grits. I love me some good grits and these were cooked perfectly! The cheese is just a slice placed on top and melted, but the grits were cooked so well I didn't even care. My friends ordered the Benedict's and loved them. Of course our brunch wouldn't be complete without some adult beverages. The peach bellinis are delish. Go here! You won't regret it. The ambiance is super cute, also. I highly recommend doing the live wait via yours truly on Yelp. read more

Ruby Sunshine! I love, love Ruby Sunshine. Right in the heart of downtown Franklin, the aesthetics and ambience inside of this breakfast place are absolutely wonderful, with a lovely vintage feel. The service is amazing and fast; my server was extremely kind and helpful. The food, though, is simply amazing: with very large portions I was happy to take home, and delicious selections. The Biscuit Love was my favorite, and I'll have to go back for more soon. read more

i had an incredible dining experience at Ruby Sunshine, all thanks to Hannah! The food was absolutely amazing, with each dish bursting with flavor and perfectly cooked. Hannah's exceptional service made the meal even more enjoyable. She was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. I highly recommend Ruby Sunshine and will definitely be back for more of their delicious food and outstanding service! read more

What a great first experience here! The food was well worth the hour + wait time. We started off with the French toast bites then got the chicken and biscuits with gravy. The portions are huge and we couldn't finish our plates in one sitting. The flavors were great and everything came out hot. Since there were so many options we'll just have to come back and try some more items! read more

Love this spot for a yummy breakfast/brunch in downtown Franklin. Today I had the breakfast tacos with chicken sausage and it hit the spot. I've had a few other egg dishes here and have never been disappointed. My husband had the Trifecta Benedict sampler today. The chicken option was my fave, the shrimp option his fave. Although a chain, this is certainly a local favorite. Stop by for a hangover meal (speaking for myself) or a family event. read more

I had the most scrumptious meal here -grits & grillade. I've had this before, but this version was so good. Gouda grits as the base made It so good. Added a biscuit as an extra and it's served with a bourbon butter-melted in my mouth. But the big winner was the excellent Bloody Mary. Definitely a place to stop when I'm Franklin (downtown Franklin is like a postcard. Such a great small town to visit.). read more

We had a terrible breakfast at this restaurant. However the manager explained that there was a new chef. She kindly comped the breakfast along with her explanation. The chef had no clue how to cook eggs. First the over medium eggs were raw, whites uncooked, and when returned came back hard enough to bounce off the floor. The grits were so watery they could have been soup. The biscuit served was hard and clearly reheated. My husband's plate was no better. I doubt the chef is still there and my guess is management will make sure that the new chef will know how to cook eggs and grits. So maybe you should check it out. read more

The food was stellar, even though I ordered takeout it was still excellent. Portions are immense and could've fed two easily! Great job y'all! read more

Our server Annie was extremely nice and personal, she gave us some amazing recommendations including the chicken st. Charles which was incredible. Our drinks came out fast and service was top notch. We will be back for sure! read more

I absolutely love this sister restaurant of the Ruby Slipper in New Orleans. It has the exact same menu, which is amazing! And I don't have to drive quite as far to get a taste of NOLA when I'm craving it. We have been here the past two Sundays for breakfast/brunch and truly enjoyed ourselves. read more

Service was good plus friendly, coffee was amazing and so was the food!! I dug right in and forgot to take a picture

Great event at Ruby Sunshine!!! Ruby Sunshine is firmly rooted in their NOLA heritage with the bold flavors the Crescent City is known for. They deliver the taste Rockies very well. We had a taste of 4 cocktails and 4 dishes. Very generous portions of each. Every one uniquely delicious. My favorite was the hot and sweet chicken. Enough spice and salt to make it really stand out! Yummy! Served with strawberries and French toast. I would eat it again in a minute. Hubbys favorite was the fried green tomatoes with onion and bacon jam ( which was not too sweet). Very good. Sausage gravy and biscuit tasty, beignets warm and delicious. The staff was courteous, funny and welcoming. The venue was bright and happy. Will definitely return. An excellent place for more than basic mimosas and bloody Mary's. Peach Bellinis, margaritas, and iced coffees were well worth a visit!! Get on the waitlist early in the am via computer and go in when time is up. Averages about an hour. Best way to get a table. read more

I just don't get it. This place is always busy but it's absolutely terrible. We gave it a second chance after a horrible first experience which included highlights of 90 mins to get food, wrong orders, stale biscuits and just overall bad food and service. After seeing how busy this place is, we decided to give it one more try. Sat at the bar. Took 10 mins to get acknowledged by the bartender. 45 mins to get food (and we got there before the crowd so it wasn't even that busy). I had the breakfast tacos. The eggs were foamy and really odd tasting, the tortillas are chewy, hard and you could barely eat them. My order was wrong, again. I ordered chorizo and didn't get it. The cold brew coffee could take the paint off your walls. I took one sip of it and didn't drink the rest. You could use it to stain your fence. My grits were cold. Not even luke warm... cold. Rice pudding cold. My other half got an omelette with the driest chicken sausage I've ever seen. 1 hour and 15 mins later, we walked out annoyed and feeling like we completely wasted our calories and money.... Again. Does this place have some magic golden dish that we're just not getting? At this point I doubt it, but it's the only thing I can figure out other than it's just another tourist trap in downtown Franklin. Disappointing. We will never go back. read more

The service here was very slow. I also got avocado toast and my poached egg was completely cooked through, and not runny at all. When we were paying the waitress also watched the screen so I felt pressured to give a larger tip then I wanted. read more

Wow. What a disappointment. Sat down. They had been open 20 minutes. The place had many open tables. The waitress told us she was too busy. Too busy? The hostess put down a drink menu... so I decided to have an Irish coffee. It's the weekend after all. She said they didn't serve alcohol until 10. My partner says it probably would be good to not put the drink menu down then. She was not nice. Then we ordered a coffee and orange juice. She brought my coffee... nope no orange juice. Waited for her to come back and take our order and bring the orange juice. Waited while she took everyone's order who arrived after us. Finally she realized she forgot the orange juice and got it. Finally took our order. Guess what? What's on the big board... nope. Can't have that! Now I will say my salmon avocado toast was quite tasty... my partners food was not as flavorful. All in all given the worse than abysmal service, the fact that their menu is inaccurate and we were made to feel stupid for attempting to order something on the menu that wasn't available... I'll wisely spend my money on the multitude of other breakfast places in town.... read more

We've been putting off trying this place out for 9 months and we finally did today. We were super impressed by their menu and after seeing it I initially thought I was going to regret waiting so long to try it. But unfortunately we were both a bit underwhelmed. It's a really cute atmosphere and our waiter was super outgoing, but my food came out cold. Not lukewarm, but cold. My husband's order was lukewarm as well. The apple pie beignets were 10/10, though! They came out super hot and fresh! We're not ruling this place out, but our first impression was lacking. read more

Kind of like a Southern Dennys mixed with New Orleans. People seem to love it for the decadent sweets and crunchy chickens. Not my kind of place. Their biscuits were very just ok. It didn't come out piping hot. Don't expect gluten-free options or options. read more
