21 + leaningFull bar

Upscale chophouse on East Main, opened spring 2023 by Chef James Reaux. Hand-cut steaks, prime rib, locally farmed trout. The Granite Bar serves craft cocktails. The price point keeps the room quieter than its downtown neighbours — good for an occasion night rather than a casual stop.

"Casually elegant dining inside and out on Main Street in historic Franklin, NC."
