4chicks Cafe Empanadas - Franklin

Loved it! Got the house special empanadas, three pulled pork tacos, and a shredded beef rice bowl. We asked for it without too much spice (we are wimpy! and were advised perfectly. Everyone in the family loved all they ate! The fried sweet plantains that came with our food were a special delicious treat! Everything was fresh, tasty, and delicious. We especially appreciated the environmental packaging that was easily compostable. I am willing to pay a few extra dollars for details like that. Was it more than Taco Bell? Heck yes but the extra money was more than made up for by exceptional quality. Lovely young lady behind the counter went out of her way to confirm that I was not eating gluten as a choice, not because of Celiac?s disease to make sure I was safe I what I was eating. THANK YOU! Overall: Absolutely try it, remember it?s a lunch place so don?t gripe about it being closed for dinner, and enjoy lovely Mexican flavors without the added MSG of processed food. (I honestly think the people who are complaining about the flavors are used to non fresh foods, jarred sauces, and powdered a sauces other places sneak in. Note to owners: Thank you and good luck! Also please consider free chips for an order over $20 and consider being open for take out on Friday nights? it might well be worth your while once the word gets out! :

Took a detour to check this place out on a road trip. I was completely floored by how fresh all the ingredients were. You can really taste the care that goes into the food. I was highly impressed and would recommend stopping if you're nearby.

I just started going here yesterday and I can already tell that I'm going to really like this place!! My wife was out of State and I got a Cuban, a Sweet Plantain and a cheese empanada with a side of yellow rice and Black beans. All of it was excellent! I can already tell that this is the beginning of a long and delicious relationship! Lol. I was really impressed right away. They were closing and they took their time with me to explain everything and make me some excellent food! They're a very welcome addition to the area and I look forward to going there more often in the future! Now I can tell my wife I was with 4 Chicks when she was away on vacation!! Hahaha!

This place is slept on, it's so good. Best Mexican/cuban food in the area easily. Service was very friendly and you can tell they care.

This place was really good! I was happy to find that their prices were very reasonable and their empanadas were stuffed full. Really good flavor in the empanadas and a good crunch on the outside. They have a bunch of sauces you can choose from and the one we got was delicious. They were super nice and brought us chips and salsa while we waited and we sat along the front windows at the counter on bar stools. The whole place is just one room so you can look right in as they cook and do things in the kitchen, but that did make it a little warm inside. It is very clean and it's a bright atmosphere and it was a very pleasant place for a quick lunch. The girl who took our order was very friendly too. I'm not in the area that often, but I have a feeling I'm going to be stopping here every time I go by.
