Reviews For Goodness Gracious Restaurant and Catering

Dropped in for lunch and the food was delicious. Had the special French toast with blueberries 1/2 portion. It was plenty to fill me up and it was amazing. When the meatloaf arrived I was a bit apprehensive because it didn’t look like what I expected. However when I tasted it I was very pleased. It was juicy and the flavor was wonderful. The mashed potatoes were a bit on the dry side for me.

First time visitor. Man! I see why this place is named Goodness Gracious. The food was PHENOMENAL, portions were great, and the service was good! Even the kid portions were HUGE! Not to mention the prices were on point compared to the amount of food you get. Food came out fast and fresh! Definitely making that drive from Nashville to the Boro more often for this place!

Every time we've gone here (or tried to go here), there has been a line. So, expect a wait! However, it was worth it! The food was good, and the staff was very friendly. We ordered the Peanut Butter Burger, Cinnamon Swirl pancake, and the special Quiche (I forget which one now). While I will say that I didn't are for my burger, it wasn't because of the restaurant's fault. I was taking a chance, trying something "different", and I knew what I was getting into. I definitely will NOT be ordering it again; however, it was done very well and cooked well. I don't fault them at all. The cinnamon swirl pancake was HUGE! Our little girl loved it. Very tasty. They accidentally gave my wife the wrong quiche when our food came. By the time she realized it and was trying to flag down the waiter, he was coming over to tell her it was the wrong one. They remade hers (quickly), and brought it out fresh. All of her food was very good too. We will definitely be back, but this time I think I'll be ordering something else!

Ist timers today and the name of the restaurant stuck to its reputation. Very impressed with wait staff and food. High quality and will definitely be bringing family and friends back. I had a lot of things off the sides menu so I could try more of everything.

Food was absolutely phenomenal. Fresh and done within an expected time. The bacon jam is a must. I asked what the strawberry filled sides were and glad I did. Atmosphere is friendly. Expect a wait to get seated. It’s busy but definitely worth the wait.

Had an amazing breakfast at this cozy spot! I ordered the stuffed French toast drizzled with icing and powdered sugar, fluffy scrambled eggs, and a side of warm syrup and butter — everything was delicious. The food was fresh, flavorful, and served hot. The presentation was beautiful, and the small floral arrangement on the table was a nice touch. Great service, friendly atmosphere, and definitely a place I’ll be coming back to. Highly recommend!

I had a great time at Goodness Gracious in Murfreesboro! We tried the cinnamon swirl pancakes, breakfast burrito, and filled strawberries – everything was delicious! The breakfast burrito was hands down the best thing ever, with hashbrowns, queso, eggs, and more packed inside. The pancakes were sweet and fluffy, and the filled strawberries were a sweet treat to finish off the meal. The atmosphere was cozy, and the staff was friendly. Highly recommend this place for a delicious breakfast.

The bacon and eggs were cooked perfectly. The croissant was fluffy and light. Everything was delicious, and the service from Kayla was excellent. We also tried the Red Velvet cake and the Snicker cake. Scrumptious!!!! I'm definitely coming back for more.
