We were visiting Franklin, NC for the weekend and stopped here for lunch, and wow what a good choice. I’m pregnant and have been extremely picky lately. The food was delicious. My husband ordered 3 tacos and the tongue taco ended up being the standout. It was incredibly tender. I expected it to be chewy, but it wasn’t at all. Highly recommend. I went with the regular chicken burrito, which was also perfect. They packed it with lettuce, cheese, cream, rice and bean, full of flavor. Both plates came with salsa verde, but I like more spice, so I stole some of his habanero salsa. Excellent combo. There’s plenty of parking and lots of space inside but since it was sunny, we grabbed a picnic bench outside. If we’re ever passing through Franklin again, we’d definitely stop here! Plus, there’s an ice cream shop right next door which is a big bonus.
