Restaurants near Rock Island State Park

The advertisement for steak and eggs for brunch got me thinking about trying this location. To my surprise, when seated the hostess presented the menu and a Happy Birthday card, signed by most all of the staff working today. With a warm welcome and a happy birthday, this experience was off to a great start. My server was also so friendly and made sure I was treated well. The food was hot and delicious. It even looked like the advertising photo! The manager was busy expediting and also doing table touches. (A+ for Staff, Food, Atmosphere and Manager Presence) I highly recommend Firebirds across the country and I thoroughly enjoyed my first visit to this Murfreesboro location.

This was my second visit, and we sat at the bar this time. We arrived early, and it was pretty empty, but by 7:15, it was packed with happy diners! We had oysters, trout rillette, leafy greens, whole trout, and mushrooms escabeche. All DELICIOUS!!! Had the tagliatelle last time we were here, and it was also spectacular. Decor is tasteful and modern. Cocktails are interesting and yummy. We had the parenthesis cocktail. Ingredients and dishes are unique and high quality, so prices are kind of high for the area. But totally worth the splurge!

This is the first Christmas that I didn't get to be with my whole family for a home cooked meal, so I thought I'd try going with my boyfriend. Thank you, we enjoyed it.

It’s a neat little place hid away in middle of cookeville. Service was great. Ambience was spot on! We only had drinks and they were very good also. Unique experience for cookeville! Recommend having a reservation.

Sad this was our last meal here. Robert is an incredibly talented chef. Avery and Katy are lovely. The food and service were always spot on. We were lucky to have found such a special place. So sorry to know the doors are closing and we can’t come back.
