Peacock Chinese Restaurant — Restaurant in Franklin

5 stars This was my first time at Peacock Chinese Restaurant, and I absolutely loved it! I ordered the General Tso’s Chicken lunch special, which came with white rice, a shrimp egg roll, and the chicken all on one platter. Everything was fresh and perfectly cooked—crispy just the way I like it. The egg roll was golden and crunchy, and the chicken had a great flavor with just the right amount of spice.

That level of cleanliness and care really stood out to me.

The owner warned me it was heavy on the peanuts, and she was right, but it's still quite good. More well-cooked proteins with lots of veggies and a slight kick to the sauce.

The fried rice was yellow, no bean sprouts, egg, meat or vegetables. The egg roll had nothing but cabbage and some tiny flecks of something red in them. They were small and folded to accommodate the lack of ingredients which made the egg roll wrap too thick and chewy. They need to make...
