- DDawnvipNashville •26 reviews5.0Dined on Oct 30, 2024As usual an enjoyable dinner. Hunter was a great waiter. Most all food was good as usual (Chang’s Spicy Chicken, fried rice with shrimp-a little too oily-spring rolls) The recipe for egg drop soup has been changed I believe. Use to be thicker (perhaps with egg yolk added?) and had little pieces of pork and green onions in it. Last three visits has been clear broth and egg white—pretty tasteless. Use to love it. Not anymore.More infoP.F. Chang's - Cool SpringsPrice: Moderate• Chinese• Franklin•4.1

Discover Franklin
Nashville is well-known worldwide as an entertainment capital of the south, but many people do not realize that the area just south of Nashville is home to an excellent array of eateries that range from the several steakhouses to a solid assortment of Asian restaurants. There are also pizzerias and other European cuisines available at multiple locations. And, of course, when you are talking Tennessee, you are talking barbecue restaurants galore. While Nashville offers the hustle-bustle activity of a big city, the communities of Brentwood and Franklin are small towns located about a 30-minute drive from the country music magnet; both offer a more relaxed setting for any dining experience, whether it is a high-profile chain outlet or a down home "Mom and Pop" country cooking buffet.
