The Tennessee Truffle

First time in Sanford Incredible town Went in for the first time for dinner ended up having 6 fantastic appetizers for less then $100Wow what a great meal so good we went the next morning went back for brunch The owner/chef Greg and crew was really friendly Will be back

Date night dinner. Let's start with the biscuits. Oh my! Biscuits were arguably the best I ever had. The side of pimento cheese dip with candied jalapeño was so good that we scrapped every last morsel of it up. (creamy,cheesy with hint of jalapeno flavor, not spicy at all) delish. Beef tartare was a delightful treat with an egg yolk to pop and long baguette spears perfectly roasted. (Must try)Shrimp n Grits.,, The grits were fresh chunky ground corn grits as a savory base and sweet cream style corn accompaniment circled around the savory mound of grits. (Best of both worlds that Zellwood corn can offer.) Savory and sweet. Topped with bbq dry rub style fresh shrimp. Yummy to say the least!Been wanting to eat here for a long time. I'm only sad that I didn't come sooner. Tasty food, fantastic service. Biscuits so good, we can't wait to come back to try the brunch offerings.Wonderful meal. Thank you Tennessee Truffle

I had been wanting to come here for over a year after drooling over their menu online - but every time I go to Sanford, I end up going to Hollerbach's. Well, let me tell you, there's more than just Hollerbach's in Sanford!We wanted to try a few things, so my girlfriend and I split 3 items - the Caesar Salad ($12), Lemon Ricotta Angolotti ($14), and the Tea Braised Sticky Spare Ribs ($19).The Caesar is unlike any I've had before and easily one of my favorites ever. Creamy dressing over romaine, topped high with frisée, chopped cucumbers and corn nuts. Delicious!The Angolotti is homemade pasta with local mushrooms and a glorious truffle butter sauce. Incredible.But the stars of the night were the Spare Ribs. They were perfectly crispy and falling off the bone, coated in a sticky, sweet sauce; a dish so decadent that my mouth is watering just thinking about it. The scallions and herbs on top really cut through the richness, and I found myself cleaning the plate of these little garnishes. Our server was welcoming and accommodating. All in all, a memorable meal and a place I'll tell others about and add to my Sanford rotation.

We went here for brunch, they have 5 menu items and 2 of them were off the menu so there were only 3 items to choose from.I got the bacon egg and cheese buiscuit, it was subpar, the biscuit was dry and it could use more flavor. The corn cakes are interesting I liked them but my significant other did not. The honey butter with the fig glaze and corn cakes was such a unique flavor. The price though for me is insane for what you get, I hate to say it but it just isn't worth the price.The service was good and the restaurant has a nice atmosphere.

5-Star Southern Brunch Review at Tennessee Truffle Brunch at Tennessee Truffle is a culinary journey through Southern flavors with a gourmet twist! Waffle: Fluffy perfection topped with sweet strawberry jam, a hint of lemon thyme syrup, and a dollop of chantilly cream. Each bite is a symphony of sweetness and zest! Biscuits and Gravy: Classic comfort food elevated--flaky buttermilk biscuits smothered in rich, savory pork gravy. It's a warm, hearty hug on a plate! Mac & Tomatoes: A creamy delight with perfectly cooked macaroni, roasted heirloom tomatoes, and a touch of bacon fat. The scallions add a fresh crunch, making it a standout dish! Watermelon Salad: Refreshing and vibrant, featuring cucumber, charred corn, candied jalapeño peppers, and crisp radishes. It's the perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and crunchy! Sweet Iced Tea: The quintessential Southern refreshment, elevated with a splash of lemon verbena syrup. It's like sunshine in a glass! Tennessee Truffle has truly perfected the art of Southern brunch. Every dish is a masterpiece, bursting with flavor and creativity. Highly recommend!

Couldn't wait to try this Restaurant..It was smaller than expected but quite Quaint, Rustic like and romantic, perfect for a date night, a night out with friends or any occasion. I ordered the Chicken special with Peppers, Tomatoes and Beans with an Au Jus sauce. It was delicious!! Everything was cooked to perfection.We also ordered a bottle of Red Wine it was so good but I didn't get the name, it was from Italy if that helps lolDessert I ordered the Cornmeal Pie and it was much better than I expected, so glad I chose this one.They have such a unique menu unlike nothing I've tried before, can't wait to go back.

Everything was amazing. Between the spectacular food, the service & the ambiance of the little shop was just five stars all around. Friends were in town and we wanted a nice place to catch up on but also eat some good food and they tackled both. We will absolutely be coming back!

This is a regular spot for us and a restaurant that you really need to visit in frequent. Chef Nat is a master of flavor in his kitchen and does an amazing job using his French culinary training with his southern roots. Some of our favorites on the menu are his Mac and tomato appetizer, the perfectly dressed blue cheese & black pepper salad, the Pan Seared Salmon, Shrimp and Grits, and a personal favorite, the Grilled Lamb. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming and you always feel like you're coming home. Visit this amazing restaurant soon and don't forget to try something from their incredible wine and beer selection.

Everything was delicious! Service was kind and courteous, but not the fastest. I don't mean that in a bad way, I really appreciated not being rushed and the dishes came out as they were ready - so they were hot and fresh. Would happily come back for more, and I plan to, next time in I'm in Sanford.

I love this place. I go early so parking is plentiful and I can go without a reservation. This week, along with great service, I had one of the best meals I've had recently.I tried the Shrimp and Grits that is a regular on the menu. Now, I'll be hard-pressed to get anything else. A great combination of textures and flavors. I had leftovers the next day and literally licked my plate. It was that good.Highly recommend!
