Jonathan Jackson & Steve Burton’s Franklin Restaurant Opens in a Few Weeks

The new restaurant in Franklin owned by Jonathan Jackson & Steve Burton will be opening in just a few weeks with a grand opening celebration in March. We don’t have an exact date just yet, but will let you know as soon as we have that information.

Jackson is currently known for his role on the TV show “Nashville,” but 15 years ago he and longtime friend Steve Burton met in Hollywood, when they were both acting in “General Hospital.” Their families and their love for music seem to be the driving motivation behind their new restaurant.

“I’ve been looking for ways to put down roots in Nashville. My family and I love it here and hope to stay for as long as we can. Steve and I got to know each other as actors on “General Hospital” and have been friends for over 15 years. We love working together, so this project made sense and sounded like fun to do something so different. Plus, we both work in music along with our acting careers, so having a great live music venue within Jack and Jameson’s is also really exciting, ” said Jackson.

The word family keeps coming up when talking about Jack & Jameson as Burton told us,”Jonathan and I both have young families and love the idea of creating a family-friendly restaurant that everyone can enjoy.”

Jack and Jameson’s Smokehouse on Hillsboro Road in Franklin has been under construction with new progress pictures posted on their Facebook page in just the last few days showing that the new restaurant is almost ready for customers.

The bar is near completion and the stage is almost ready for music on the weekends.

Jack and Jameson Smokehouse is located at 509 Hillsboro Road, Franklin. Follow Jack and Jameson Smokehouse on Facebook for the latest updates.
