We have always been fans of the Franklin Inn, but we have had some interesting changes we haven't liked. The old style yellow (chicken flavored) mexican rice was the best, but last year it switched to a "herbal" type of rice and it isn't very appetizing. Also the ground beef seems to be more salty than ever before. It makes it hard to eat the tacos and enchiladas. Hopefully they cut it back a little. he wings are still the best and always awesome. Chris made them perfect last time. Fajitas are great as is the salsa and chips.

This is our all time favorite Mexican restaurant. The food is great!!! The Margaritas and homemade ice cream are delicious! It is a small restaurant with nice ambience. It is a popular so its small size sometimes means a long wait, but it is well worth the wait!

The southwest chicken wrap just tasted like a salad in a tortilla. The enchiladas were not at all how the description said on the menu. The pico was just straight tomatoes with some cilantro. The guacamole was flavorless. The salsa was watery. However, the chorizo appetizer was very good.
