    Black and Blue Burger
    Glenn W.

    Decent food, friendly service, but not good for gluten free. Had lunch while I was in Smyrna for work several weeks ago. The owner and his wife greeted us, took our orders, he cooked the food, and worked the register when we were leaving. The food was okay. I had a blue cheese burger which was pretty good. I would not, however, recommend this to anyone seeking a gluten free meal. I was able to make it work, but not necessarily a wise decision if you have an allergy. For instance, the owner swore to me that no seasoning ever have gluten in them (which is not true). I might go back, but maybe not.

    The experience was amazing. The food was great and the atmosphere is chilled. Get the corned beef! Delicious.

    was on my way to get Greek down the street, and saw a sign that said meatloaf. I had to stop in and try. I was very skeptical at first, inside was very basic, nothing special but, OH MY GOODNESS!!! This is my new favorite place! I live in Murfreesboro and will have to make the 20 minute drive! The owner was kind and super to get along with: I was the only one there so we got to know each other a little. GREAT place. Can't wait to try the other dishes he has!

    Waffle, eggs, bacon, and potatoes Two big chicken biscuits with eggs and potatoes Eggs and mini waffles for kids

    I'm not gonna lie to you if you're looking for decent delicious breakfast that makes you say wow this is the place absolute deliciousness. I took my mom first before I took my wife and kid and I fell in love with their breakfast. I haven't tried their lunch and dinner yet, but that's When I have a little time on my hands I work the night shift.

    Friendly owners and staff, delicious food, and great experience. We both ordered the waffle platter and it was so good! Highly recommend! We will be back soon!

    Mom & Pop style restaurant was an easy stop off the highway for eggs, bacon and coffee. Very friendly service at reasonable prices.

First - the parking lot is large and easy to get in/out. Second - we went in at 12:40 and were seated immediately. Lots of tables to handle a crowd. Third - Haley was our server and she was very friendly and attentive. My daughter got the honey caramel crunch iced coffee, and we checked the menu. Haley gave us perfect amount of time to decide and I chose the biscuits and gravy side along with the seasoned potatoes. Very delicious, and the portion was just right to not feel too stuffed but also feel satisfied. Haley got me a drink to go as we were leaving. I noticed every one working was smiling and courteous. I will be coming back more often.

The texture was dense, dry, and crumbly--more like cornbread than the soft, fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth pancakes I was expecting. They lacked the moist, buttery richness I personally look for in a great pancake. To be fair, that may be their intended style, but it wasn't what I had hoped for. The staff was accommodating, and I exchanged the pancakes for scrambled eggs, turkey sausage, and seasoned potatoes. That plate was much more enjoyable. The eggs were fluffy, the potatoes were nicely seasoned with a good crisp on the outside, and the turkey sausage was a solid choice. I also sampled the Turkey Sausage Biscuits & Gravy. The dish was comforting and satisfying, but it could have benefited from a little more seasoning. A touch more sage in the sausage would have added the savory depth that makes biscuits and gravy truly memorable. One of the highlights of the meal was the fresh juice selection. The Morning Meditation was refreshing with a bright blend of orange, lemon, turmeric, ginger, beet, and agave. The lavender drink was equally delicious, light, floral, and refreshing without being overpowering. If you're visiting First Watch, I highly recommend trying one of their fresh juices. Overall, while the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes missed the mark for me, the fresh juices, eggs, potatoes, and turkey sausage made for a pleasant brunch experience. I'd gladly return and explore more of their savory breakfast offerings.

This place will surprise you with the interior space (beautifully decorated) plus the outside seating which is also pet friendly. I went upstairs and sat at the bar where I met Kate...she is a non-stop dynamo behind the bar with a fun personality. The two dishes I enjoyed were specials for the evening and may not be available when you visit. My appetizer...black mussels in an elegant cream sauce...this dish blew me away. Make sure you dip the bread in the sauce, it was so good I was tempted to order another helping. For dinner the fried Grouper over a bed of gnocchi and a drizzle of aioli was incredible. The breading was light, the fish was perfectly cooked, and the combination of flavors was very well done. While I am not a fan of the texture of gnocchi...this was really good with the cream sauce. What sets this place apart...the people! Yes...the food is great! But when you spend four hours enjoying a great meal, intriguing conversation, and a smattering of food theory you know you've found a bit of paradise.

My wife also let me try her chicken piccata with seasonal vegetables, which were both amazing. All of the staff was welcoming and our server was knowledgeable of the menu and made good recommendations. We went on a Saturday night and they had live music upstairs, which was a great surprise. The band was very talented. If you haven't been yet, you need to check this place out, and if you went before, you should give it another chance. We will definitely be back!
