" Franklin Inn is hands down my favorite Mexican restaurant in the area! The ambiance is vibrant, filled with laughter, and the decorations reflect true Mexican culture. My go-to dish is the carnitas tacos, which are always juicy and flavorful. I also love their margaritas – they hit just the right balance between sweet and tart. However, be prepared for a wait during peak hours; it’s popular for good reason! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Franklin Inn for a birthday celebration and it was fantastic! The service staff went above and beyond to make sure our party had everything we needed. We had the seafood empanadas as an appetizer, and let me say, they were exquisite! Each bite was filled with flavor. For my main, I got the chicken enchiladas, which were just as good – a little bit of heat but nothing overwhelming. It was busy that night, and albeit we had to wait, the food made every minute worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have mixed feelings about my latest visit to Franklin Inn. I ordered the tacos al pastor, expecting something spicy and packed with flavor. Unfortunately, they were a bit bland. On the other hand, my friends' meals looked appetizing. Lots of hustle and bustle create a fun vibe, but it also made it hard to hear our waitstaff. Everyone was friendly, though, which was a plus. I might come by again but perhaps try something different. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for authentic Mexican food, you really can't go wrong with Franklin Inn. The flavors are genuinely reminiscent of traditional recipes. I had the shrimp ceviche, which was fresh and flavorful. They lost a star for service since we experienced a long wait between courses, but the food was truly exceptional. I'm excited to try more dishes after this experience. Don’t skip the margaritas either; they’re fantastic! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Franklin Inn after hearing so much praise, and I left more impressed! The fish tacos are a must-try; they were fresh and full of zest! I also loved their creative margarita specials. The only downside was the noise level—it made it hard to have a comfortable conversation. I will definitely return for another meal soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Decided to check out Franklin Inn based on recommendations, and I must say, it was an enjoyable evening. The décor is really charming; it feels cozy and authentic. The tacos I had were good but the portion sizes were a bit small compared to the price. Service was friendly but could be more efficient. I’ll return to explore their menu further! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Franklin Inn last weekend and was really happy with the food but had some ups and downs with the service. The dishes are authentic and made with fresh ingredients, which is a big plus. I had the steak fajita, which was cooked to perfection. The only issue was waiting too long for drinks to arrive, but the waiter was apologetic and pleasant. I’ll be back for sure!
