The vibe as soon as we entered was not welcoming. No one seemed happy or proud to be working. The bartender was also our waitress so extra duties for her was a long dinner for us. There were at least 3 other waiters and the place was not full. The Caesar Salad dressing overpowered the dish and the shrimp and grits were just okay. The simple green salad with smoked tomato ranch and Ramp potato side dish were the best part of our meal. Crabcakes were bland. All in all an expensive disappointing experience.

Wonderful menu. We brought visiting friends from out of state and they loved it. The shared appetizer plate was a star. And the rabbit and gnocchi dish was our favorite but all the entrees were excellent.

Food was marginal at best. Order the catfish and it was greasy. The cabbage slaw that was served with it was uninspiring. It really pains me to do this review because I really enjoyed coming to Honeywood the first few years. The menu was wonderful and the food really good, but unfortunately the last two times I have gone it has just been okay. Bring back some of the early menu items! They were excellent!

We dined for Sunday brunch and had a wonderful experience! We ordered some sort of croquettes which are phenomenal, their soup beans (outstanding) and quite frankly THE BEST Caesar salad. Would highly recommend 10/10

We visit Honeywood regularly. Just seemed off tonight. Waiter wasn't pleasant until he brought our check. Didn't tell us about the specials. Prices are going up. $100 for to two drinks, two entrees, and a 20% tip. I can see why is was so easy to get a reservation. Resturants are pricing themselves out of busines. This meal would have cot $75 two years ago. I don't think inflation has been 33%.

Very good meal at Honeywood! We stood at the front for a while waiting to be seated, but once seated the server was very friendly and attentive. They were serving their brunch menu but I was able to order something off the lunch menu after the waiter talked to the kitchen. I really appreciated that. The 4:00 snack platter was EXCELLENT and should not be missed. We will for sure be back.

Very nice server, but every single dish we had was so heavily salted that it was inedible. I love salt, and usually find meals not salted enough for my taste. Not this time. Server comped the one dish that we only took one or two bites of, and offered me a coupon for a dessert if I return. Disappointing, as I had dined here in the past and had an amazing experience and was really looking forward to dining again.

We had a great evening - the service was outstanding. The shrimp cocktails were perfect and the 4’o clock appetizer is amazing! Sangria was delicious and my new favorite- the beet salad.

Mid week lunch with friends. Parking available in front of the restaurant. Server was knowledgeable and attentive. Food was excellent. Salmon cooked to perfection. Sweet potato beignets were yummy. All were pleased with their food selections. Charming atmosphere. Not noisy.

Lovely & accommodating for a last minute birthday lunch. As the number of guests increased from 6 to 9, the hostess kindly stated “at Honeywood, we love to see people have a good time”… Something for everyone from 14 year-olds to moms to guests with food allergies. Kids loved hamburgers, fries & mac & cheese. Moms loved salmon Caesar & Pamplemousse cocktail.

We were slightly disappointed in one of the meals. The rabbit with the gnocchi was overdone and sparse. The other entrees of the crab cakes were fine. The restaurant was not crowded when we arrived but we asked to be reseated as the original location for four people was cramped so we were moved to a booth which was fine.

Honeywood has always been one of my favorite spots in Lexington but I hate to say that it was quite a let down last night. Service was meh, our server was spreading thin due to short on staff for the night. She was nice though. The busboy, however, was rude! Took away our plates without even asking if we were done. When we protested, he just looked at us and walked away…. Foods - the appetizer (deviled eggs) was amazing as always. Shrimp and grits was average.. Would this stop us from coming back? No. Just hope that our experience next time would be better..

The food here is always great. Today it was not. I only ate about half of it. The potatoes were burned and when they replaced them they were uncooked. The eggs were over fried and the grits and hoe cakes were cold. The meal was not up to their usual standards.

Love Ouita Michels restaurants but this is my least favorite. The service was understaffed and slow and the food wasn’t adequately seasoned. Regardless love visiting her family of restaurants and cannot wait to get back to others!

Food and ambiance were very good. The smoked trout dip was super delicious and so was the hummus. Entrees were yummy. The service encouraged us to leave. Items came out at weird times, items were taken away haphazardly, we were not asked how things were or if wanted another drink, and generally our waiter seemed hurried, but the restaurant was not that busy.
