The Alley on Main

"Went here on a Saturday night with three other people. This is a small restaurant so small that at the time we were there which was about 5:00. They were already on a way. If you're looking for something quiet, this is not a place to go due to the volume. But it tells you something about this restaurant. The food quality, the server staff and the customer service was superb. I ordered the ribeye steak and I always get it with no seasoning or no steak butter just to tell whether they have great steaks or steak just covered up because it's poor with some seasoning. I can tell you that this is one of the better cuts that have had. I had a side dish of broccoli that was bigger than most babies heads and it was bland and needed a little bit of salt but I understand that because it was steamed tender it falls apart like a good rack of ribs. I highly recommend visiting this restaurant. But be prepared to wait and it'll be worth it"

"Just off the square in Murfreesboro, I finally ate here and was pleasantly surprised to see how good the food is and it’s reputation of excellence is well deserved"

"I can't say enough good things about this restaurant, its owners, its staff or its food. This past Monday I arrived early to meet my son for lunch. It was 10 minutes before they opened and I had found a parking place right in front of the restaurant. It was still cold outside, in the mid-thirties. A lady and her daughter walked over to the door, realized it was still locked 5 minutes before opening. One of the staff saw the two outside, immediately invited them to come inside out of the cold advising that they would start service in another 5 minutes. That was exactly the way to endear a customer to a business. And this day, the blackberry cobbler with vanilla ice cream also had that endearing effect."

"After a long morning of travel, my husband and I wanted to stop somewhere for a real meal. Found this place online and decided to go for lunch- and boy were we amazed! Quick service, pleasant atmosphere, good prices, and awesome food. Though their lunch menu is simple, it’s perfect for a quick bite. My husband got the hot chicken sandwich (pictured) and was so impressed. We’re definitely coming back! 10/10!"

"Another great recommendation to me! We got here just before dinner rush and was able to get a table right away. The food was delicious, great service (Thanks Jacob!), and even met the owner who was bussing tables and doing whatever the staff needed help with! Highly recommend this restaurant and when we come back to Murfreesboro we will return!"
