I went with my daughter around 1:30 pm, and we were seated without a wait and the restaurant wasn’t crowded. I saw someone mention kiosk ordering, but that wasn’t the case for us. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. We got pimento cheese bites as an appetizer, and they were delicious. I got the chicken fried chicken and my daughter got the fried chicken. Our waitress let us know it would take 25 minutes because they make it fresh, but it was worth the wait. I had green beans and mashed potatoes with brown gravy with my entree, and they were both good. I also enjoyed their corn cakes-they look like pancakes, but made of corn. Overall, very good experience for 2 very hungry people.

Having lived in middle Tennessee for awhile now I’ve been to multiple locations for all meals and it’s always good food for me. This last time I had the fried chicken with mashed potatoes and baked beans. First time I had the fried chicken was a few years back during thanksgiving and it became one of my favorites meal choice. It does take a minimum 20-25 minutes to fry up your order so if you’re in a rush this is not the option for you. Chicken comes nice and hot, crispy and cooked perfectly golden. The redneck burrito is another good food choice that I will have from time to time

First time trying this place out and it definitely didn’t disappoint! The BBQ is tender and juicy! Literally falls apart in your mouth.
The BBQ Taco Salad isn’t your traditional taco salad with the shell and all that jazz but instead you get tortilla chips and that crunch hits different with the BBQ Ranch sauce.
The Fried Green Tomatoes are highly recommended and the sauce add the right amount of twing to it and these bad boys, you could eat as a meal and be happy!
The atmosphere is calming and yes, it’s a very popular restaurant so timing here is critical! We went for lunch versus dinner but can’t promise it won’t be busy during your trip. Still worth it!
If you like BBQ, highly recommended! It puts West and Middle Tennessee to shame!

Seriously, the food was out of this world! I’m still dreaming about how incredibly flavorful everything was. That meatloaf, though – definitely the best I’ve ever had the pleasure of tasting. It’s the kind of meal that makes you plan your next visit before you’ve even finished your current one. You’ve gotta try it if you get the chance!

We loved this place. After having a bad experience at another restaurant I decided to go to Pucketts because I thought we had been before and enjoyed it. The host experience was a little confusing it seemed maybe they were training someone. Our servers were wonderful, Shannon was also training a new server. Mainly for us, the food was good. It was a bit salty but not enough to make it inedible. We got the fried green tomatoes & I got chicken fried chicken.

Besides being a little noisy and crowded, we enjoyed it here. Our waitress was friendly and helpful. We only ordered the large combo appetizer to try and loved it all. The boudin bites were my favorite. The fried green tomatoes also awesome!! The pimento cheese bites were good, just not as good as those first two! Would definitely go back again as the menu looked awesome in all.

I ordered my food to go, but man it was delicious. I had the Brisket Mac and Cheese and it was incredible. The Mac and Cheese alone is really, really good. My wife had the Country Fried Chicken which looked awesome. We also ordered some banana pudding and that was some of the best banana pudding ive had in quite some time. The restaurant itself looked very nice when I walked in and the staff were extremely attentive as soon as I walked in. Definitely come and check them out whenever you get the chance.

The food was absolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and homemade. You can really tell that a lot of care goes into preparing the meals. The portions were generous, and there were so many great options on the menu. If you like classic Southern food, this is definitely the place to go.
Another thing that stood out was the overall atmosphere of the restaurant. It felt lively but still comfortable, and it’s the kind of place where you can relax and enjoy your time without feeling rushed.
Overall, Puckett’s was an excellent experience. Between the great food, friendly staff, and welcoming atmosphere, it’s definitely a place I would recommend to anyone looking for a great meal. I would happily come back again!

Called ahead to make a reservation and spoke with Tara. She was very pleasant and asked questions to understand what we were looking for. She and her team greeted my husband and I at the door. The atmosphere was very good and they were getting ready to start live music. We were served by Maddie and she was wonderful as well. We ordered and received our food In no time. The portions were large and the brisket nachos and pulled pork were delicious. We will be back.

I met my friend for dinner. It was calm and relaxed. Not crowded, bc we are not ” in season”. I have a wheat allergy, and they accommodated my concerns. We had a lovely time, friendly server! The food was good, one of the few times I’ve finished my food! That says alot. ☺️
