Tupelo Honey - Arlington

Food was excellent. Service was slow. Had to wait even though we had a reservation

Everything about our brunch at Tupelo Honey was great. The food was amazing and everyone found something they wanted. We all enjoyed the creative mimosas and had a very excellent time.

Got seated right away and it took 10 minutes for anyone to come over and bring water. Immediately ordered and it took another 10 minutes and a reminder before our coffee came. (Restaurant was less than half full, so wasn’t that staff was overwhelmed) The avocado on the eggs Benedict was cold, so made for cold eggs Benedict which is never ideal. Good prices, nice environment, but overall mediocre. Other people’s orders- sweet potato pancakes described as OK- couldn’t taste sweet potato.

I have been here for lunch before and the buffalo fried chicken is fantastic. Recommend coming then but avoid brunch.

Food was excellent. Had the shrimp and grits. Shrimp were perfectly seasoned and perfectly cooked. For some reason getting drinks was very, very slow. We were done with apps before our drinks came. We had friends at another table that didn't get their food for nearly an hi hour and had to leave without eating to go to a show. Tupelo did comp their drinks though. Maybe they were just having an off night in the service.

First, it took us about 20 minutes to get water and a drink menu. Then, they were out of several menu items when we ordered around 840pm. We waited around 45 minutes for the appetizers. Finally, when our dinner arrived, it was warm. It had clearly sitting there for awhile.

The waiter gave us a complementary Cobb salad when the kitchen backed up which was a nice gesture but overall it was a disappointing experience.

Very disappointed. Had reservations and was seated immediately but after ordering the entree meal, it took almost 1 1/2 hours for it to arrive at the table. The food was cold and the taste very bland. Our server was apologetic but the damage was already done.

We had a good time at Tupelo-Honey. We went on a Saturday with reservations and were sat right away. We each ordered a drink off of their signature drinks list, and they were all pretty good. The sangria did lack a little life, but the other two drinks were yummy. We ordered the Mac and cheese bites and the chicken dip as our apps, and they came out quickly. I wish the chicken dip came with a more durable bread because the chip broke easily, but it was delicious so no complaints there. I wasn’t able to try the food that my friends ordered, but they completely cleaned their plates so I’m assuming they enjoyed their meals. Overall it was cute.

Terribly slow service for drinks and food, poorly seasoned food.

Food was not as good as I’d imagined it would be. I’m sure it’s fine for some, but brined chicken isn’t tasty to me. Pimento cheese was not too “pimento-y.” The deviled eggs and battered cauliflower were good but portions small.

The service was fantastic! The staff was so great to my friend’s dog

Be prepared to wait, even if you have a reservation. The restaurant is loud.

The sweet potato pancakes and everything was so good!!

Light and airy space, a casual atmosphere, and excellent Southern food

We were on vacation and this restaurant was recommended. It was great

Chicken was dry and tough, service was non existent, would not recommend

In our last visit, service was uncharacteristically poor. The food was good, not great, but because of the poor service we will give Tupelo Honey a break from our frequent visits.

The buttermilk fried chicken with crispy brussel sprouts was amazing. Just the right amount of breading, not too salty, not greasy. Very good meatloaf also.

Lunch service seemed quick for others, though a bit slower for us. Perhaps because we were dressed more casual? I had the apple, turkey cheddar flatbread and it was just ok. I wouldn’t order again. My lunch mates ordered the breakfast bowl and the lunch combo, both of which looked better than mine. Perhaps I just ordered wrong? Would be willing to come again, though would order something else.

We were visiting the area and this place sounded intriguing. It was great. Basically a fried chicken place but it had good drinks and the best biscuits and honey. Service was good and very friendly. We were there for lunch. It was perfect.

5 stars isnt a high enough scale! This was my second time eating here and they did not disappoint. The food was delicious, service was fantastic.

The food was good however, the service was mediocre. We walked in to the host stand and had to wait a little while there was a employee sitting in the area on her phone and other employees passed by without asking if we needed any seating assistance. The staff was courteous in letting us choose the area of the restaurant where we wanted to sit. The floor of the restaurant was super slippery; I almost slipped on the way to our table. We had the trout and cauliflower steak entrees which were both very good. The drinks (house Manhattan and wine) were just ok and the happy hour prices are still a little steep.

At the beginning of the meal (right after seating) I told our server Rob that I would be using two coupons sent to me as part of the restaurant's loyalty program (and for my birthday). He shrugged and said they would be ok to use however, at the end of the meal when we received the check he told me that we could only use one after we had ordered what was included on the coupons. I did not appreciate his lack of knowledge and being presented with that at the end of meal especially when I made a point to inform him at the beginning.

This was my first time at Tupelo Honey, but I would definitely recommend and would definitely go back. They have quite unique but delicious takes on brunch dished and delicious mimosa options. A great place for families as well as groups of friends.

We went to Tupelo Honey in Arlington after visiting one in Nashville and having an AMAZING experience there. Our waitress was extremely slow, a couple times we saw her on her phone. Not to mention, she wasn’t exactly the nicest. We were seated right next to the kitchen, which was fine but everyone crowed next to it the whole time. It was extremely loud, our table was sticky. Our food was mediocre at best. Just a disappointment overall.

I've enjoyed Tupelo Honey in other states, but this location seemed to be struggling a bit. The fried green tomatoes and grits were delicious. The service was okay, but we had to find our server several times to refill our drinks, and our used plates were never cleared between meals, leaving us with little room on the table. A manager and hostess also got into an argument at the hostess stand in front of a line of guests.

Great service from waitress but we got the honey dusted fried chicken and it was very plain and not crispy.

We’re old friends who were catching up. Our server Casey was wonderful: patient with our indecisiveness, helpful with suggestions, and just really nice. Food was great, but we’ll be back for the awesome service!

Thanks. All was just good. Nothing really stood out.

Front desk didn’t walk my girlfriend back to our table so she wandered around looking for where we had been seated; the table and both chairs were rickety and required stuffing napkins underneath, and our waitress was terrible. Brought biscuits, promised to go get honey, and never came back. Our app order came out wrong, and then she disappeared for almost a half hour, leaving us with no drinks, no entree ordered, and a table full of empty plates. We ordered cocktails twice and each one took about twenty minutes to be delivered. The food was good and all but the service sucked.

Everything was just delicious— chicken chili, shrimp and grits, Brussels sprouts, potato cracklings and banana pudding! And our server, Kyle, was attentive and gave great suggestions.

My first time there.
Good vibe and AWESOME chicken!!
Our server was great, as well. Friendly and informative.

The place was delicious. The fried chicken and Mac and cheese are outstanding. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Terrific! Delicious food and lovely service

Tupelo honey is one of my favorites they were able to accommodate our large group that changed size several times. Friendly service and great food

My husband and I went there twice. First time for brunch, the food tested was good , but it came to our table cold .
Second time we went there for dinner , we both order chicken and it as extremely dry no flavor and cold .
Not sure if it worth to come back and give a third try .

The food is delicious and the biscuits are to die for. But they ran out of champagne...which for brunch is a staple. Service overall is just slow. Every time I've been service hasn't been great. But again, the food is bomb.

Went for Sunday brunch with our niece for her birthday. The servers and managers were so warm and engaging and the food was so delicious with a down home southern kick we thought we'd been teleported back home to Lousiana. We're still dreaming about those fresh made buttermilk biscuits with honey and warm berry compote, the Shoo Mercy sweet potato pancakes with buttermilk fried chicken and the Southern Shakshuka baked eggs with goat's cheese grits and creole sauce! Can't wait to return for more great food and southern hospitality! 😋

Service was good but nothing special about the food. Also, was there for Sunday brunch and they were out of several dishes

We had a wonderful brunch- the coffee, drinks, food (especially the biscuits with ham and honey) were delish. Our server took really good care of us and we are ready to return!

Came highly recommended so it was incredibly disappointing. Had a reservation but waited almost 20 min to be seated while 3-4 tables sat empty but was told they couldn’t be combined even though it would have take two seconds to combine. Once seated, the waitress was initially attentive, but then it took almost an hour to get our food which was mediocre at best. So disappointing. We were seated in the bar underneath a air conditioning unit which blew freezing air all night so extremely uncomfortable. .

This was the second time I’d eaten here and I love the menu choices and feel of the environment. It seemed like they were short-staffed this night and ran out of at least three basic ingredients, which was disappointing. The food quality was okay, but not as great as the first time. Sometimes restaurants have off-nights I guess
