I have been into Franklin Room many times. Love the food and whiskey selection. It was my partners first time and Franklin Room, again, did not disappoint. From starters to entrees, she was amazed by everything. We will definitely be returning.

The atmosphere was excellent, and the space was laid out for comfort, rather than to maximize guests. The servers were all super knowledgeable, and the pace of the bar was great!

One of the best tiki bars I have ever been to in the US. Drinks and presentation are excellent. Room has a tiki vibe but is not over the top, a little more sophisticated than most. Staff fun and helpful. I will definitely come back.

    The food was delicious! Great service and you would never know that you are next to the interstate with as nice as the view was. One of the best meals I’ve had in a long time.

    We did the wine and Wagyu experience… perfect combination of wine and meats, but not overpowering… wines were delicious, I especially liked the Cabernet… Francisco was great as our server, also the bartender and manager but can’t recollect their names, bad memory sorry!!
