About this restaurant

Charming
Good for groups
Great for brunch

Tupelo Honey is a revival of Southern food and traditions rooted in the Carolina Mountains we call home. We craft brunches, lunches and suppers that bring family and friends around the table and allow for conversations and cocktails to linger longer than usual. Always scratch-made, always responsibly-soured, and always Southern.

I rated this restaurant 4 stars for 2 reasons…the first is that my husband’s Shrimp & Grits came out in a cold dish…he thought it would be hot, but he said it was cold. He loved his meal though. The second reason is that the hostess was not very friendly. When greeting customers it’s courteous to smile. I know it was busy, but really? Our friends loved their meals as well.

I made reservations for my daughter-in-law baby shower. When I called the restaurant to ask if we would be allowed to bring in a cake and decorations they were extremely nice made me feel that I had picked the correct place for the shower. Our server Klementi did a fantastic job he was always around if we needed anything not pushing us out the door as soon as we had finished. I will eat there again the next time we are in town.

Great vibe. Service was good but delivered too fast. Asked to pace food delivery- gave app order ahead - once received gave dinner order- had not even finished our apps and dinner arrived. Which tells me a lot of pre-prepared foods reheated which is disappointing for the $$.

I ordered the steak and eggs. It came with a side od fried potato salad, that was very good! As for the steak it was room temperature and tasted a little burnt. Everything else was okay as well.
