Reviews for Puckett's Restaurant - Downtown Columbia in Columbia, TN

The place was extremely busy and like everywhere else short staffed. I would still go back again. The staff was friendly even... though they were over worked. The food was delicious and nice portions. Read more

The food was great! The best chicken fried chicken I've had in a really long time. The inside was decorated well. It was really... busy when we were there and the servers did a great job keeping up with everyone. The downside was the wait...they told us itwas going to be a 15-20 minute wait and it ended up being closer to 40 minutes. I don't think we would have decided to wait ifwe had known it was going to be that long. Read more

I give it a 5 simply because Allison is beyond amazing and my kids absolutely love her. The last few times we’ve been or... picked up though the food has not been at its best. The kings French toast is my absolute favorite, however I’ve had to askthe last 3 times for my peanut butter and my bananas to be on there. Which if it wasn’t a different price than regular Frenchtoast I wouldn’t care, and the eggs have been undercooked. Overall still our favorite breakfast place, the kitchen staff justneeds to pay more attention. Today I orderethe kings French toast for pick up, when I got there I checked since I’ve beenhaving issues, I asked the woman about the banana and peanut butter and she brought it back to the kitchen, they put the bananason but still not peanut butter. For $12 for French toast and not have the ingredients is insane. I also asked MULTIPLE timeswhen ordering for the fried chicken breast, I stated that I did NOT want the tenders and when I got home not only was this myFrench toast but I in fact had chicken tenders.

Ok, but not great. We loved the atmosphere. The appetizer of fried green beans was excellent! The meatloaf with mushroom gravy... could have been great also, but it had a very sweet taste like a lot of sugar had been added. This made it taste like a meatloafdessert rather than an entree. The green beans were bland and the mashed potatoes were not hot, barely warm, so after a coupleof bites they were cold. The corn cakes were not what I expected either, they were like a pancake and did not have the textureof fried cornmeal. No crisp whatsoever. The service was also a bit slow, I think they may have been assigned too many tables? Ifit were not for the decor and dining with friends I would have rated this a two star ? experience. Will not try this Puckett'slocation again, though I may try another location as I feel they have potential. Read more

We arrived to a busy lunch half past noon. All the worker bees were busy, after a bit, we were told 10-15 min wait for table.... Well y’all it took a tad longer by the time our selections arrived. We were becoming last there! I’m unsure of the bestsolution to fix as this was first time eating at location. The hostesses were both very nice, and the delicious nachos andchicken salad were what saved the day! Read more

Arrived to hear last song of the band. Sat at the bar and ordered Cabernet Red and Baked beans side. All just right and enjoyed... prompt service and observed a dessert baked brownie covered with whip cream, chocolate syrup and caramel syrup drizzled. Yum . Read more

Puckett's grocery and restaurant is a great place for a date or family dinner. Definitely one of the best restaurants in... Tennessee. Lots of local and Americana history vibes. Columbia in general became a really beautiful, inviting and historic townto visit or relocate to. Highly recommend. Read more
