We celebrated our 7th anniversary with dinner at Southall Farms, and it was unforgettable. We decided to splurge on their house dry-aged steak at $8 per ounce, and since the smallest one was 28 ounces it officially makes the most expensive steak we’ve ever ordered—and absolutely worth it. Perfectly cooked, rich, and full of flavor. Mathew says don’t miss getting the Parker House rolls!
The dining room is stunning, with high ceilings and warm design. The view through the floor-to-ceiling windows made me want to come back each season for the view. We weren’t hotel or spa guests this time, and dinner alone made us want to come back for the full Southall Inn experience. Highly recommended for a special occasion. (especially if someone else is treating). Thanks for a terrific meal.

We loved our breakfast! I’m not sure why the reviews are harsh here- the restaurant is 5 stars level food and the prices are honestly reasonable and typical compared to many other brunch locations we have been to. Just a heads up to make a reservation in advance and tip will be included in your bill. We stopped by here for breakfast and all of the food was absolutely delicious, including the brisket hash, biscuits, gravy, and my pumpkin spice latte. It’s a beautiful space and was very enjoyable with attentive staff.

Everything was great! Love that they carry Honig wine. Burger and smoked trout dip were fantastic. Service was excellent. They have a very impressive whiskey and spirits selection. Definitely recommend. You have to make sure to book in advance. We thought the dress code was smart casual but there were a lot of people there in robes from the spa FYI.

Jan. 8th my husband I went to dine here and the manager, bartender and waiter were all so attentive that they made us feel like royalty! The food was the best we’ve ever had, some of it off the January menu. The salad greens were so fresh, from their greenhouse they told me, I hated to stop eating it but wanted to have room for the other courses which were just as well seasoned and delicious. We were celebrating our 45th wedding anniversary and the desert even had a chocolate Happy Anniversary sign.
We’ve eaten at Ruth’s Chris, Flemings, Five Seasons, Jeff Ruby’s and other high end locations in the past and this experience surpassed them all.

Great atmosphere, especially outside with the fire pit going. They have a s’more station. Excellent food, something for everyone. Service was top notch. Backdrop with forest is beautiful. Couldn’t recommend it more.
Only odd thing was the 23% automatic tip – recommendation is to charge more and max tip out at 20%.

My dining experience at Sojourner at the Southall Farm & Inn was nothing short of exceptional. Situated on 325 acres of working farmland in Franklin, this restaurant delivers on its promise of farm-to-table dining in the most authentic way possible.
The meal began with their outstanding housemade sourdough bread served warm from the oven, accompanied by cultured butter topped with flaky sea salt – a simple yet perfect start that showcased their attention to detail. The carrot hummus with crudité was remarkably fresh, highlighting the quality of their farm-grown vegetables.
The star of the evening was the Bear Creek Farm Pork Coppa Steak, served with buttermilk butter beans and spinach. The pork, slow-cooked sous vide for 24 hours before being crisped to perfection, was absolutely sublime. The technique and execution were flawless, resulting in one of the most memorable dishes I’ve had in recent memory.
The beverage program deserves special mention. I tried the Heartbeet cocktail (mezcal, farm beets, cynar, lime, egg white, and rosemary), which was beautifully balanced and showcased their commitment to incorporating farm-fresh ingredients even in their cocktails.
What sets Sojourner apart is not just the quality of the food, but how every element of the meal feels thoughtfully connected to the land it came from. The restaurant’s location amid their working farm isn’t just for show – you can taste the freshness and care in every bite.
Service was knowledgeable and attentive without being intrusive. The ambiance perfectly balances refinement with rural charm. While this is a special occasion price point, the value matches the experience. Already looking forward to trying their sister restaurant, January, in the future.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking an extraordinary dining experience that honors both culinary craft and agricultural heritage.

I feel for the great servers here that have to ask for an additional tip amount on top of the already ridiculous included on the bill 23% charge for gratuity. Very embarrassing for both server & customer. Also, the food is mediocre and overpriced. Very cool upscale atmosphere though.

My friends and I had dinner at Sojourner tonight, and our experience was absolutely wonderful thanks to our server Jessie. From the moment we sat down, he greeted us with genuine warmth and a friendly personality that immediately made us feel welcome. His kindness and attention to detail stood out the entire evening.
Jessie went above and beyond in every way. He anticipated our needs before we even asked, offered helpful recommendations, and made sure everything about our meal was perfect. His balance of professionalism and easy conversation made the evening feel relaxed yet special. It was clear he takes pride in his work and truly cares about the guests he serves.
We try to visit Southall once or twice each month, and it is experiences like this that keep us coming back. Jessie turned what could have been an ordinary dinner into a memorable night with his outstanding service and genuine hospitality. He is an incredible representative of the Sojourner team, and we will definitely be asking for him again.

If the not so good reviews are putting you off, I’d recommend still giving this place a try!!
The food was awesome and you’d really be missing out! Honestly, it deserves a higher rating!!
As long as you can get past the cons that others have mentioned (20% tip automatically added to bill so don’t tip on top of this, need a reservation at least a day in advance – absolutely no walk ins, prices are a bit high (like $24 for burger)), it’s a great place!
People complain about the service being slow but we didn’t notice that and I really enjoyed sitting in the stunning location (I wouldn’t want to rush my visit there!). Yes, there are other customers (some even in bathrobes from the sauna ) but what restaurant doesn’t occasionally have other loud customers (not that we experienced this). And servers were also super friendly and attentive.
As a celiac, I was worried but most things on the menu can be made gluten free! They even advised against fries as the frier has cross contamination. The burger was absolutely incredible (and I’ve had a lot of burgers ). They don’t have gf buns but have gf bread which was great. The lavender haze lemonade was incredible. Our whole group loved the food! And the venue is stunning. I’d recommend walking around the outside or checking out the store and sauna!

Overall review: I don’t plan to go back for the restaurant. Might go try to stay at the hotel for a staycation, but even then will probably skip the restaurant due to prices way too high for food that is mediocre.
Details:
Pros: Beautiful atmosphere, really luxurious feels
Cons:
– Service is strange. I booked a table for 6PM (which was fine), but then I called several hours before to see if I could move the reservation up, the lady that answered said “I’m sorry, both of our restaurants are showing FULLY booked for tonight so there’s no way to change.”
Yet, when we arrived 15 minutes early we were seated instantly (great btw), but the entire time from 6-7 there were at least 15 open tables. Idk what “fully booked” means – but typically it means fully booked.
Also, it took roughly 10-15 minutes to get the bill and pay, and our server (though he was very nice I will say) didn’t seem to know what he was doing when it comes to payment methods (I wanted to use Apple Pay, and that threw him off big time).
– Food was mediocre. We had the burger and Zucchini Pasta – both were enjoyable, but nothing that blew us away by any stretch.
– Price / hidden charges. Our meal was $109 at menu price, which was fine (we expected it), but when I was given the bill it automatically added $40 for gratuity, state taxes, local taxes, etc. This is WILD to have a 35% upcharge added without any warning beforehand.
