The Indigo Duck

Out-of-town guests; found this gem of a restaurant nestled in downtown Franklin thanks to fellow Yelpers.

For dinner, my fiance and I started with the Pate O The South, She-Crab Soup and two of Indigo's cocktails. The cocktails were average, the Pate rich and creamy. The Soup - more cream than crab.

For dinner, I got the grilled duck. Everything complemented well but nothing stood out as the "star" of the evening.

Why the four stars: the atmosphere was nice, service pleasant, parking was easy for a weekend evening; most importantly, I know I can come here, order just about anything off the menu and not be disappointed.

We had read several fine reviews suggesting restaurant. We arrived around 1:00 on Thursday. There were maybe 8 other people in the restaurant. We wanted to try the she-crab soup and pecan encrusted pork. They were out of both. Disappointed we ordered the fried mortadella and turkey wrap. We received our food at 1:45. The service was awful. The young lady would walk by our table never speaking. I finally asked about our food and she was snippy. The manager finally brought our food. It was good especially the mortadella but the wrap nothing to brag about. I was disappointed.

This place is fantastic.  It is rather expensive, but it's probably the best restaurant in the Franklin area.  It is also one of the most upscale in the area as well.  

The salmon is delicious, and the She Crab Bisque is to die for.  This place is best suited for people with sophisticated palettes.
