Beautiful atmosphere, great food and service! Can’t wait to go back!

Let me just say this place saved what should’ve been an epic fail on my end. As the boyfriend, I didn’t book anything for Valentine’s Day. By the time I realized, Farmhouse Kitchen had the only opening left for the night within 45 minutes on open table. We came from Angola and it’s really not a bad drive. Now let me just say, Farmhouse Kitchen had an opening on Valentine’s Day, so my hopes were not the highest (granted it was only for 2 and at the bar). It absolutely blew my expectations out of the water. The food I felt was fairly priced for what it was, but the quality was very high. Everything tasted amazing, and out bartender (I believe his name was Steven) was one of the best bartenders/waiters that I’ve ever had. He was a great talker and fun to be around for the night. Overall, on a night that should’ve been an epic fail on my end, we ended up finding this hidden gem. Now we plan on making trips out there all of the time. It was absolutely amazing and I urge you to give it a shot. You will not be disappointed!

We made a reservation for Valentine’s Day. We arrived 10 min early and were immediately seated. Our service was good and the food was awesome. We had the fried green tomatoes, our favorite appetizer, then my husband had the pulled pork sandwich and I had the chicken spinach salad. Both excellent and more than we could eat! Definitely will be back :)

Outstanding experience for lunch- feels like dinner at a formal dining experience where the owner/establishment doesn't do cost saving short cuts a like many ann arbor restaurant managers do for lunch, like reducing dining room staff, removing buss person( clean assist in table clearing, or expeditors that bring entrees to table when server/waitstaff are occupied. So here you have a set of dedicated staff for all front of house service; a host, a waitress/waiter, a buss person, an expeditor( to bring waters, refills of coffee, entrees when order has been taken ) - this creates a production line kind of flow - for faster service for hot food arriving to table timely. Also they are not cheap about fine dining ware; white table cloth( almost non-existent today ) full set of silver/table wear, and hot pots for table set coffee if needed. The kitchen must be a classic proper chef/ professional production equipped kitchen, as they have capability to have dry meat locker( steak house type ), steaming option for vegetables, and all needed for scratch cooking - not from a box , again like many ann arbor restaurants. The menu is a sign of all mention here, as many items would rarely be offered in many places , like genuine lobster bisque, london broil, hand made cole slaw, hand made mashed potatoes, ext.- these things may seem trivial but go see where else you can experience all this, also most lunch entrees are $12-$21 , where portions are very generous and coffee is high caliber roasts with $3.50 with endless refills. So yea - worlds above a fast food joint or mass franchise feed lot, corn syrup, and box sourced food that often are same cost.

This was the best dining experience I have had in at least 3 years. Captain Jack Sparrow was our server and he was incredible. Friendly, funny, on top of all we asked for and made us feel like he was there for us. So many servers and restaurants have been settling for crap service with no apologies. This is the only restaurant in Jackson that I have had a good experience with and I will only dine here from now on when I want a night out.
