A great lunch is always a challenge as people usually have limited time. Jim And Nick's is not only a great BBQ place, but the service is super fast. Add the corn muffins and you have a great business lunch place!

A Southern Soul Food Revival with take out and catering

We tried several Barbecue places while we were in the Franklin/Nashville area and this was one of the best. We both had the pork and it was plentiful and delicious. The corn bread here was some of the best I have ever had and the green beans with bacon were also good. For some reason I had fries , I should have gotten more corn bread as a side lol.

We had heard of Moe's through word of mouth and decided to try it.The Mac and Cheese is very good as well as the chicken and pulled pork. I did not care for the BBQ sauce, potato salad and jalapeno corn bread. I would have rather had just some old fashioned corn bread. It all came with some banana pudding which was very good. The order was a bit mixed up from what we ordered but we decided to eat what we brought back home and we were satisfied.

Chef Reuben provides delicious home cooking in a relaxed, family friendly environment! Whether you come for the pot roast, green beans, or brisket make sure you saved room for the bread pudding!

I saw on the wall in the restaurant and was told by my server they did southern cooking from scratch. The barbecue and some of the sides were good...but...the potato salad was Gordon Food Service (or something like that) and was awful. I wish the server who had bragged on the scratch cooking had told me when I ordered! I was extremely disappointed. Ruined what otherwise could have been a very good experience.Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback. I am sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy the potato salad. We would have been more than happy to provide you with a different side choice. If the event you try us again I highly suggest the green beans or cheesy bacon grits!
