Mi Kitchen

Amazing to have this in our area! Cozy vibes with delicious Asian-flare comfort food. Didn’t have a bad plate - one of the best Asian restaurants in town in my opinion. It’s a great spot for celebrations and for groups. The service was also incredible. The owner even came over to say hello, and our server Abby was 💯. They made our dinner super special. We will become regulars.

So so good! I’m in town temporarily and stopped in on a whim. All of the servers were so kind and helpful and the food was sooo good. Very cool take on Korean food!

Fantastic restaurant!! Highly recommend. Great service, good food and atmosphere. Tapas place, so expect small plates to share. Really good cocktails as well, which I was thrilled with. Menu isn't too thick, so you're able to really able to choose without being overwhelmed. Great date night or fun night out with friends!

food -well seasoned environment- NY vibes , so clean and relax Customer service- waitress (Skyler)so polite, friendly, sunshine, we loved her , best waitress ever. Prices- Affordable Menu- Quality not Quantity which is perfect! Don't hesitate and visit this restaurant :)

Lovely food and service. The best way is to order multiple of their dishes and share between each other. I recommend their gnocchi and lychee cocktail the most.

We chose this restaurant for a weekend lunch and made a reservation a day in advance as it offered decent vegetarian options. It wasn’t too crowded, and walk-ins were also accommodated. The service was friendly and efficient, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. We tried the plantain dish, which was surprisingly delicious, and the gnocchi, which was exceptionally good. Most of the best dishes had a sweet and sour flavor, which happens to be our favorite. If you enjoy a sweet and sour palette, I highly recommend this restaurant!

Good vibe and great service - Nestor was great. And the food was an amazing flavor bomb. Don’t sleep on the glass noodles.

AMAZING restaurant! Food- all incredible. Edamame dumplings, crispy rice with tuna, kale salad, plantains, steak, hamachi crudo. Drinks- unique and delicious. Dessert- INSANELY good. Avery, our server was awesome! Update as of February 17, 2025: Have to call out the beef tacos & the bread pudding. Both are fantastic! Also- Nestor is an amazing server, & made our experience SO fun!

Asian fusion tapas?! Yes please! We started with the mi cucumbers, k pop chicken, spicy tuna, and kimchi risotto. The only thing we didn't care for was the shrimp on the risotto but the flavor of the risotto made up for the charred shrimp. We were still hungry so we got the plantains and the arancini next. The plantains had a great spice! The arancini was a little bland after all the flavors we already enjoyed so that one we probably wouldn't order next time. I wanted to try the bread pudding but we ran out of time (the table we were sat at was reserved for 6:30pm). Next time we will make a reservation and leave enough time for dessert!

This place is amazing! I came here with a group of friends about a month ago and I was blown away by how delicious everything was! There was a group of four of us. All of my friends had been here before. I was the only newbie. We were able to make a reservation online. The restaurant itself was so pretty inside. Really nice ambience. This would be a great spot for a date night and I loved the portion size. It was so fun to try everything. To drink, I got a NA mojito which was beautiful and delicious. I'm trying to remember all of the dishes we got (we got a lot). We got the K-Pop chicken which was absolutely delicious. Amazing flavor and cooked perfectly. We also got the plantains which were very good as well. I was blown away by the steak. The flavor was amazing and it was cooked to perfection. We also got the glass noodles, dumplings, crispy spicy tuna and salmon poke. I loved everything. We will definitely be back. I loved the variety and the flavor of all of the dishes was incredible.

Haven't been back in a while so stopped in for book club! Service is still really great and fun atmosphere. Had a lavender based drink and it was okay. Was on the smaller side and had a lavender twig in it. I probably should have stuck with one of their cocktails in the pouches. A big fan of their Dumplings which are edamame based. I haven't had anything quite like it and I'm a fan, so would share them. Tried their Poki Bowl (Tuna) and it was outstanding. Very fresh and a good size portion. There were so many flavors and textures that really worked well in the dish!

My favorite Asian restaurant so far in Franklin. I wouldn't say it's a true authentic Asian eatery, but all the dishes I tried were flavorful. We had the Crispy Spicy Tuna, the Poke, and the Oyster Mushroom but the favorite was the K Pop Chicken. Crispy on the outside, tender in the inside and very tasty. I liked the decor, music and the random 90s commercials/videos beings played at the bar.

I liked Mi Kitchen except for one detail. It was Saturday at about 5:40 and when I walked in the hostess asked if I had a reservation. The place had about 3 tables sat. I said no. (I'm a tourist) She said then you have to sit at the bar. So I did. It turned out fine and the bartender with the man bun was sweet and a great server! When I left an hour later though maybe they had 6 tables sat? I'm dining by myself. The last thing I want to do is sit in a restaurant all night and hold your table hostage but I digress... I started with the crispy spicy tuna. It was perfection. The tuna came in a little bowl dressed with micro greens and you spread it on the crispy rice yourself. Loved it! Then I ordered the kimchi bacon risotto. This had a really nice flavor (kimchi, bacon, shrimp & tomato) but the rice was a bit under cooked. I ate the whole thing though! If I lived anywhere near here I'd be here all the time and I'd make a reservation.

The menu made my mouth water. I wanted one everything, but settled on the crispy tuna and a cucumber salad. The staff was super friendly. I loved the regular and Halloween decor! I got take out.... I can only assume the food odd delicious from the happy looks on all the other people's faces!!

Situated in Franklin/Cool Springs in a small plaza on Carothers Parkway, Mi Kitchen is a welcome addition to the food landscape in this area! Small space, but massive impact through flavors and vibe. Mi Kitchen is a Korean Tapas spot that is serving up some of the tastiest dishes I have had in a while. A few friends and I popped in recently after work and ordered a round of cocktails and a few tapas. We went with the Crispy Tuna Rice, K Pop Chicken, Mi Cucumber, Dumplings and Plantains. K Pop Chicken was easily the best of the dishes, but the others were not far behind! The chicken was crispy, well coated in sauce and honestly, perfection. The crispy rice cakes were an amazing vessel for the fresh spicy tuna, the cucumbers were divine and the dumplings were surprisingly tasty! The plantains were good, but hard to compete with the other dishes we got! We got a round of cocktails, which were hand crafted and expertly prepared. And while we did not partake, they do offer a Mi Pouch, which is basically an adult caprisun! The vibe of Mi Kitchen is definitely East Nashville, but it seems to fit in quite well in Franklin! Service was excellent from our server to the food runners. Overall, highly recommend Mi Kitchen!

I went to MI Kitchen during lunch. The restaurant was packed. I'm so glad I made reservations. Our waitress was the sweetest. The food was really good. I really enjoyed the crispy tuna. It was prepared different than what I'm use to, but very enjoyable and delicious. Be sure to try the espresso martini! It gave me an afternoon punch and the pick me up that I needed.Overall this was a great dining experience with friends.

I like the vibe they're going for + the fusion is unique! The set up is very crowded though- unless you're in a booth, you feel as though you're eating with the people right next to you since the tables are so close together :/ The food tastes good but for the price of the tapas, you'd hope you'd get slightly more food per plate. I've been multiple times and the service can be hit or miss- once I had a great waiter and the next, an inattentive waitress.

The food is incredible. The service is fantastic. And the vibe is very cool. I have been many times and will keep coming back.

I can't believe I didn't know about this place for past 4 years I've been in Nashville! This modern Korean tapas place is worth a visit. Truly owned by Koreans which is a plus. I am not a fan of restaurants claiming to be a Korean restaurant and they are not. This isn't your typical Korean food but more tapas place. Try their adult Capri Sun pouch drink and Kimchi risottos :)

Was a little apprehensive about going to this restaurant I am gluten-free so I was worried there wasn't gonna be enough for me to eat. They had gluten-free items on the menu and I am super happy that we went to this restaurant. The cauliflower appetiser was delicious. Ended up getting two of them. The noodle dish was very tasty, also gluten-free and then the crispy tuna was super yummy. I couldn't eat the steak, but the person that ate it said it was good. What a great experience very glad that we stopped in to eat. Chef Yun ( owner ) stopped by a table to see how everything was. He was definitely a delight. Congratulations on a very unique restaurant. I can't wait to come back next time I'm in Franklin. The restaurant had a very nice vibe, loved the chandeliers . Seems like a very busy restaurant. Make sure you get a reservation's, we were fortunate enough to get a high table right away. Don't hesitate to try this gem out. My only request is please make more gluten free options that have meat protien.

We were introduced to this place by Franklin friends. Delicious kimchi gnocchi, plantains, chicken, bread pudding with raspberry compote, and cocktails! We'll definitely be back!!

Wowow. This is the kind of place that would have me driving out of the city for again. Living in Nashville, I don't often venture out of the city for food. But boy am I glad I did for this meal. We called the day of, because there were no reservations were available. And they were able to squeeze us in as there was a cancellation. The vibe inside was cool and laidback, with neon signage. But the food was elevated and so tasty. If you come and don't try the edamame dumplings and octopus you're doing it wrong in my opinion!!

There are a very few places I've visited that create such a unique food experience. The Mi Kitchen has amazing tasting food! They are a cut above your traditional Korean food. If you live in and around Franklin TN - you absolutely have to try it. Make reservations- opens at 5:00pm except Mondays. You will not be disappointed.

Middle Tennessee's relatively new Mi Kitchen is burning up the ratings on Yelp and Google, so much so that it grabbed my attention amidst the vast dining options across the city! It even made my short list of the 12 hottest restaurants in the metro area I'd never visited that I needed to try in 2024. With such intense competition in the Midstate Region, every new place needs a hook. And Mi Kitchen is the only spot I've found with small plates of Asian tapas, a Spanish tradition applied to Korean food. That was all I needed to hear. Even better, traditional Korean cuisine features elements of Japanese, Italian, Hawaiian, and Mexican fusion. It's incredibly clever! My only hesitation before going - as Mi Kitchen lies just 1,200 feet within the Franklin city limits - is the propensity for Franklinites to exaggerate their ratings. Of all areas of town, they're the most guilty of showering mediocre establishments with five-star reviews like they're handing out meaningless trophies at a little league baseball banquet. Case in point, this space was previously owned by the atrocious Moe's Bar B Que, another overhyped Franklin failure. But any fear that Mi was another overrated Wilco joint immediately dissipated with the first bite of those glorious edamame truffle dumplings! Let's talk about those first, because I went home and added them to my top 25 must-eat items in the Greater Nashville area! Now that's saying something! Soft, steamed wontons envelop pureed edamame soybeans with Parmesan cheese and a garlic confit. But they'd certainly be incomplete until dipped in that stunning citrus truffle oil sauce! The k pop crispy fried chicken is a crunchy, meaty masterpiece with a slightly spicy kick and sweet aftertaste inspired by the popular dish Korean fried chicken. It's just as good as anything I've eaten in South Korea! The spicy Korean pork tacos with salsa and cilantro were nearly as good as the other two dishes. And I'll be back soon, because there are at least 10 other menu items I want to try! This is the best-kept secret in Cool Springs, one of Williamson County's best eateries, and a place very much worth the hype.

I really like this place. It's a modern Asian Tapas restaurant. I found it on Yelp, of course and I really wanted to try it. It has a cool and casual feel with a full bar. The food was awesome. We tried 4 dishes and it is hard for me to pick my favorite dish. All of the dishes we tried were flavorful and presented well. Skyler was our server and she was excellent. We had a few questions about 2 of the dishes and she had all of the answers for us. This place is about 10 minutes from Coolsprings mall. There is plenty of free parking. I definitely be going back at some point. Just a note- Skyler told us they get very busy for dinner and recommended that you make reservations for dinner. Enjoy..

This was a real pleasant surprise. I felt every plate was delicious, artfully prepared, and a good value. Our server was on top of anticipating our needs and finding ways to make sure both adults and kids had everything they needed. We had a booth that both gave us privacy and yet felt open with high ceilings. Lighting was a challenge for photos but perfect for the meal. Some highlights: -Hamachi crudo was my favorite. Perfect hamachi, and the scallions plus nori oil make the flavor and textures pop. -Poke bowls: got both tuna and salmon. The kids and adults agreed, this was a better value than most area poke bowls due to the quality of ingredients. If size is your main priority, it's smaller than others, but more than makes up for it in quality and variety of flavors. -Glass noodles: kids loved these too after they had their fill of our poke bowls. -Plantain: Was curious based on the unusual combination of flavors. I especially enjoyed the kick delivered by the sriracha goat cheese. Why was sriracha goat cheese not on my radar before? Delicious. I look forward to coming back again soon!

Mi Kitchen is absolutely worth all of the hype! This adorable little fusion restaurant in Franklin is a must-visit for anyone who likes trying bites of a bunch of different small plates. I recently stopped in for a weekday lunch and was surprised to see this place packed! Lunch is typically a slower time for local restaurants - but you can tell Mi Kitchen is a favorite for folks who live and work in the area. Even still, my friend and I were seated right away, and the service was incredibly fast and friendly from start to finish. We opted to share a few different dishes - which I would highly recommend given the style of Mi Kitchen's menu! This is not your traditional "everybody order an entree" type of restaurant - so just keep in mind who you're dining with. We shared the Mi Cucumber, the Dumplings, the K-Pop Chicken, the Crispy Spicy Tuna and the Plantains. Honestly, it would be difficult to pick a favorite bite from this menu. Everything was fresh and flavorful - and you can really taste every ingredient they're including. The prices aren't bad either - especially when you keep in mind the quality of the food you're ordering. We didn't order cocktails this time around, but I noted the adult Capri Suns on the menu for next time (which I'm hoping will be sooner rather than later!)

This tapas style spot is a gem and worth driving to. Service is great, food is great. We ordered tuna poke, kimchi bacon risotto, steak, gnocchi, k wings, dumplings, hamachi crudo, glass noodles, crispy spicy tuna, and mi cucumber. Everything was delicious and it all come out quickly. My favorites were the mi cucumber, crispy spicy tuna, hamachi crudo, steak, and tuna poke.

I can't think of a better Asian meal I've had in Nashville. Service was amazing, ambiance is laid back without feeling dingy. I need to try the whole menu.

Wowie wow...good stuff. The food, service, and ambiance were great. We got the mi cucumber, k pop chicken, fortune udon, crispy spicy tuna, and the tuna poke. All very delicious. I have had K pop chicken before elsewhere that tasted overcooked in old oil....this place tasted fresh and cooked just right. If you get the Crispy Spicy Tuna, I suggest paying the extra +$3 for 2 more pieces, even if there are 2 of you sharing. $13/3ea = $4.33/ea vs. $16/5ea = $3.20/ea. Udon was tasty and I loved the Tuna Poke. It had rice, greens, crunchy things in there, with a nice chili oil on top. hmmmm.... We need to go back to try a lot of different items that we didn't get but wanted to. Best to go with at least 4 people to get more different plates to share. Definitely book your seats on Resy ahead of time...there is limited seating. Be ready for the bill as it will hit you...for a tapas, it's expensive when you want to try several things. With tip, the above (plus one drink) came to $85 for 2 people. Enjoy!

I don't even know where to begin. I just want to live in this restaurant and eat the food 24/7. The flavors were incredible! The plating was beautiful and the prices were decent. Currently the restaurant is decorated for Halloween and it has a great vibe and our waitress was fantastic. She had great recommendations as well! The crispy spicy tuna was my favorite but it's hard to pick favorites when all of the options were amazing! I cannot wait to come back here next time I'm in Nashville! I loved the Korean-Western fusion and the creativity and flavors in each dish we tried. 10/10!

This was a great choice for lunch. The vibe is relaxing. There were 80s movie clips and commercials playing on the TVs behind the bar. Our waitress, Skylar was great, but let me tell you about the food! We ordered: Cucumbers Cauliflower Spicy tuna with crispy rice (little pillows of heaven) Chicken wings Edamame dumplings Gin and Tonic Everything was delicious and perfectly cooked. I'm going to dream about those chicken wings. Might be a new favorite place. Order extra crispy rice. You will not be sorry. Seoul (something I cannot remember)

Had a great quick lunch from Mi Kitchen! Great, fresh flavors and interesting combinations of cuisines. Services was friendly and the restaurant was so clean.

Okay so I had no plans on valentines day and had low hopes that Mi Kitchen would have ANY openings but just my luck there was a table that had just canceled their reservations and my party of 3 was able to have a table. The service was great and attentive, they gave us the run down about how its a tapas style restaurant and what was their favorite dishes. I would highly recommend the edamame dumplings, the cucumbers, and the glass noodles (japchae), and octopus dish (delicious with the Shishito pesto sauce and crispy quinoa!!). We also ordered lamb chops (wish there were a bigger portion), kimchi risotto (which octopus was WAY overcooked), k wings ( not the best but was yummy). Overall was very happy and full but now know what the order again and what not to order again. I am curious at the menu having tacos so I will be back to try at least one order of those!

First time here for lunch from the Boro. Ambiance is cute, relaxing, and clean. Service was okay, she's soft spoken can barely hear what she was saying about the menu. The food we ordered was all good, except my tuna poke bowl was too salty. It was a bit much soy sauce in it. Maybe next time I'll ask for just enough soy sauce in it. Overall, good experience today!

They were steady and the rush started to come in around 5:15 pm. Its important to have a reservation. If not you have to sit by the bar. Which is fine also. The ambiance felt like a little hidden gem in nashville, even though we were in Franklin. Extremely cozy and inviting. The service was wonderful from the host. The food did take a littler longer then we would have liked to come out. The guy behind the bar not sure if he spoke enough English to understand when I was talking to him. The food all sounded great, they had a limited menu for vegetarian options. More for carnivores and pescatarian. The prices are expensive when compared to the amount of food you get. The cauliflower taco was great, just missing some type of sauce to counter act the dryness. Plantains we're my favorite, not the goat cheese. That's only because I don't like the pungent taste. The cucumber salad was on the smaller size but very flavorful bursting with nice complexity from all of the chili oil, other ingredients mixed together. I think the cucumber salad could definitely be doubled for the same price. It was about 3 spoons full for $4. I will gladly pay $6 for a bigger portion. Overall I left feeling hungry, we went to PF Changs after leaving.

Place just never disappoints ya. The steak is amazing. K-pow chicken is too. All of it is great.

Franklin Hidden secret. TOP things you have to get: K pop chicken (side of rice) Mi cucumbers Fortune udon

Mi Kitchen is.... Mi new favorite... Every dish was delicious. Every plate deserved 5 stars. I was actually blown away. Cocktails were perfect. Service was courteous, well-timed and never overly insistent OR persistent. We ordered about half the menu and four cocktails and didn't break the bank. Franklin / Brentwood needed this place. Don't let the strip mall exterior fool you. High ceilings and dark wood tones created a cozy yet breathable ambiance. We'll definitely be back. I wish I would have taken photos... next time!

What a great spot to enjoy some high quality Asian food! I had the cucumber and hamachi appetizers followed by the vegetable donburi. I thought the quality of your ingredients was very good. Hamachi was fresh. Cucumbers were awesome. I was a bit full when I ate the Donburi but I think it was very good. If I were to order it again I would order the beef one. Service was outstanding and I see why they have the ratings that they do.

What a fun place to dine! Asian fusion with a question in every bite..."What is that flavor I can't recall?" Service with Skyler was great. I would go back for Hamachi Crudo, Gnocchi poki, and Mi cucumber. Those were perfectly delicious! K-Wings both soy garlic and spicy tasted very nutty. I could barely taste the flavor of the wings sauce. Fortune udon was a bit too salty. I mixed it with Gnocchi poki sauce which was sweet & spicy. It turned out perfect! Overall, it was a pretty good experience.

Mi Kitchen Can I give 6 stars? Well, 5 will have to do. Great spot, superb service, Korean tapas style food was outstanding, a wonderful evening! The restaurant is located in a retail strip (for some reason, these tend to run together for me) but there seemed adequate parking out front. We made reservations, it was a Friday, and we're glad we did. They seated us on time and our server, Abby, was attentive and professional. She kept the dishes arriving in a timely manner all evening. We were a party of four and ordered the K-pop chicken, Kimchi Risotto with Shrimp, Gnocchi Poke, Udon, Edamame Dumplings, and Glass noodles. Every dish was well prepared, with fresh flavor and so so tasty! We literally could not pick a favorite. The K-Pop chicken had the most incredible sauce, the Gnocchi Poke was also really good(we wished we had some bread to sop up every drop of the sauce though! It was really delicious!). Udon was incredible and the Glass Noodles were also wonderful (those mushrooms just soaked up all the great flavors). Edamame Dumplings were so good that even the member of our party who doesn't like truffle enjoyed them! The only negative for me was the Kimchi Risotto, the Shrimp was cooked perfectly and the risotto was very good but there was a surprise element, squid. Not sure if this is always part of this dish but the flavor permeated much of the dish and frankly, I am just a so-so fan of the squid so I might have passed? But still it was good to try. That's the beauty of the Tapas meal after all! I was also lured in like a moth to the flame, by the lights of the Capri Moon and tried one of those, the Cucumber version. Not overly sweet, fresh and refreshing. It arrives in a pouch like an adult juice pouch with a straw and glowing light nestled amongst the ice. Very festive! After our main dishes we were actually very satisfied, BUT somehow found room to sample both desserts on the menu: the bread pudding and the Caramelato. The bread pudding was really good, Vanilla Gelato was great and the berry compote was fresh and flavor FULL. BUT that Caramelato! Oh boy, that was fantastic! If you are a fan of the Caramel (and I am!) this will hit the spot. Luscious homemade salted caramel, with the crunchy bits that are a nice counter to that beautiful vanilla gelato. Sometimes a restaurant throws a couple of desserts on the menu as an after thought and they can really disappoint, NOT here! Save room, you won't be sorry. During dessert Chef came by to check on us. A very nice touch and he shared our enthusiasm for the salted caramel sauce. Who wouldn't? Highly recommend this one!

Unbelievably fantastic - my husband and I dropped by here on our way home from a Costco run last minute around 530 and could not have been more impressed!!! So clean, so organized, food was absolutely incredible!!! We had the k pop chicken, k wings, dumplings and cucumber and it was all phenomenal! Everyone was so nice and welcoming. Would totally go back! However, if you don't plan on going during a non- regular time- I would highly suggest getting a reservation as they not only fill up quick but have tons of reservations.

In the age of mass customization in restaurants, there are rare experiences where you sense quality and love of craft. It was evident the first time we walked in for dinner without a reservation. We felt welcomed as we were given an option to sit at the bar or the raised two tops just inside. I first noticed the atmosphere and It was such a refreshing experience at Mi Kitchen, that I knew we would have a good experience from the moment we were seated. I loved the flavors of the food and the tapas style in which it is served. Our server had great menu knowledge and guided us through the experience. I want to explore the menu more, so we will be back. In the future, we will call for a reservation in advance. In conclusion, Mi Kitchen is the coolest restaurant experience in Franklin by a mile. All the others that try to be cool, while they are pretty good, don't hold a candle to this gem of a restaurant.

We ordered seven dishes and didn't enjoy any of them. Most things are very spicy but all taste similar. Several things made me gag. Something seemed really off with several dishes. We usually love this kind of food. The fried plantain was good but also the same sriracha spice on everything else. We won't be going back.

I always have a great meal here! The food is delicious with unique flavors and always fresh! service is quick and extremely helpful! The only thing I think they can improve on is their water glasses. They are the cheap cafeteria style cups and take away from the vibes

Family of 5 (4 who have travelled / stayed in Seoul) enjoyed every dish we ordered which included: 1 popcorn shrimp - yummy lemon-y sauce 1 tuna - love the quinoa coating and the great mustard based sauce 1 octopus (special) - really good / meaty 2 k pop chicken - a favorite - so crunchy 2 cucumber - great w k pop 1 cauliflower veggie the spiciest thing 1 soy garlic k wings - great sauce / crispy 1 fortune udon - enjoyed this 1 truffle dumplings - interesting combination and I'd order again! And both desserts - Caramelato was just the right size, sweet sticky crunch over gelato w a salty finish - yum. Bread pudding was a takeout and enjoyed by the recipient. This was the perfect amount of food for 5 adults. We all agree we will be back.

Best Asian food in Nashville and Brentwood area pure and simple, yum! Parking is a bummer though, may need to walk a bit.

Food was excellent but portions were very small. Even though it is considered tapas, I think the portions could be a little larger for the price. Cauliflower, Octopus, and Crispy Rice Tuna were excellent. Be aware - by reservation on Saturday evening!

The atmosphere was excellent. Great music and the lighting on the table was an added bonus. Staff is happy, friendly and very attentive. The FOOD.......a 10! Outstanding, delicious, decadent, superb, amazing....should I say more?!! We shared the k-pop chicken, kimchi bacon risotto, fortune udon noodles and poke tuna..... All of them were my favorite. The presentation of all of the dishes was beautiful. We just got excited about eating them before taking the picture of the first three dishes.

The food is amazing! Mi Kitchen has the most intentional and elevated menu with Asian fusion items. Everything was excellent! We had the glass noodles, the cucumber appetizer, the dumplings, the popcorn shrimp, and the taco. We were visiting friends in town, and because Mi Kitchen was so good, we went twice. The servers were excellent, and the presentation of each dish was thoughtful and elegant. We will definitely be back next time we are in Franklin!

Absolutely amazing from start to finish! This is a must try in Franklin! One of the best meals we have had since moving here two years ago. Every dish was abundant with flavor! Every ingredient had a purpose! I can't even pick what dish was the best because it was all amazing. You won't go wrong with anything. The service was great and the chef even came over to talk to us. It's a really cute room with gorgeous chandeliers. We can't wait to go back!! Highly highly recommend!

Delicious food, and very attentive, courteous service. My husband and I like to sit at the bar and eat, and the owner is usually there and she's just lovely. :)

Great dinner tonight at Mi Kitchen! We had a bunch of diffferent dishes and loved them all! Nestor took GREAT care of us! Recommend highly!

Where have I been living, and why have I not been here before. Sampled a few different dishes, and they were all excellent. Super friendly staff as well. We will definitely be back!!!!!

I really liked this restaurant. My husband and I had 4 tapas and it was plenty of food. I highly recommend the chicken wings, the tuna, and the shrimp tapas. The service was good, and the ambience was pleasant, although it was a little cold inside the restaurant. I will go back there.

What a wonderful find. It's a pleasant space, some private booths and a couple rows of tables, plus an attractive bar. Though to our amusement we found the table we were seated at, across from the bar, to be very unbalanced, it kept turning in every direction whenever we barely touched it. Love that they take reservations - as soon as word gets out, I suspect this will be popular enough to be pretty much reservation only. Great respect for how they developed the menu - They keep the list of plates small enough to stay focused and ensure that each dish will be perfectly executed, but with enough variety to be fun and interesting on repeated visits. Decent selection of local and Japanese beer, though I really hope they expand to at least one draft Japanese selection (please?). The Capri Moons are brilliant, the wife is now in love with them. They are so much fun, and the two I sampled that she ordered, lychee and watermelon, were very pleasant. The presentation, with the drink pouch and a light, will make anyone smile. We split 6 dishes, including a dessert, which was plenty, especially since they were a combination of light and heavier plates. The dishes were brought out at a nice pace, only a couple on the table at any point, so the table was not overwhelmed, and we could fully enjoy each one. Every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavor. We loved almost every dish, and the only one I don't think we'd repeat order, the edamame dumpling, was good, it just wasn't to our personal tastes. We agreed that the k pop chicken and popcorn shrimp were musts - next time we'll start there and continue to try more new dishes. Get a cucumber as well, it's small, really fresh and flavorful. We'll be regulars.
