    Limited selection for the price of a buffet. Most foods are decent. Chicken is usually great. Some taste like it came straight from a can with no real taste.

    We have always eaten at Shoney's as a kid, so when I discovered this one still around in Franklin I was absolutely delighted! What amazing memories flooded back as I walked in the doors. The food was actually pretty good, only had one item that had been sitting out for a while. Hey I get it. The tea was also a tad off, not very sweet like someone messed up the sugar. I work in food service myself I know people make mistakes. Overall I would have to say it was well worth the very reasonable price and I thoroughly enjoyed the visit. The smell the bar all like it used to be as a kid. The food was good and we will be back the next time we are in the area! I hope it stays around we plan to visit more often.
