We have been to Franklins a few times and it never disappoints. The food was wonderful, they always have something new in their daily menu and flavours are always full of depth and just delicious. The set menu is a steal, the desserts are always a highlight. We always make sure we save space for them. The service was great and is nice and quiet during lunch time at week days. We wish we lived closer so we could come more often.
