    My entire party thought the food was great. There were just enough unique offerings to make it stand out. The menu is pretty focused with their own twists.

    I brought my mother to dinner to get her mind off the loss of a family member. We waited more than 5 minutes to be acknowledged by the host. Seemed like the restaurant was short on wait staff because service was very slow. My mother ordered the pork on a hot skillet and the skillet and pork were delivered to the table cold and it took a while for our waitress to come back and check on us so we could notify her of the issue. Definitely not the best experience I have had at Tupelo Honey.

    Went for breakfast on a Sunday morning. Breakfast menu was pretty limited. I had the chicken and waffles. The waffles were small and pretty plain. Honestly, I could have made better waffles at the hotel. And the chicken consisted of two small chicken fingers that were just okay. Pretty disappointing considering the price. My wife had the sweet potato pancake. You get one pancake. She said it was good. We ordered a side of sausage that consisted of two sausage patties that were maybe about an 1/8” thick, certainly not more than a 1/4” thick. They were very plain. The overall value of the meal was not good. Finally, parking is hit or miss. Be prepared to walk a block or two if you don’t arrive early. We had reservations at 9am on Sunday morning (right when they opened) and parking was not easy to find. That is a one and done experience for me. Won’t be going back.

    Unfortunately the mahi was terrible, I think it was overcooked, dry. The collards were way too salty. So were the Brussels sprouts. The kids grilled cheese was made with aged cheddar which sounds good, but my niece and I’m guessing most kids, hated it. No one at the table ate and the waitress didn’t notice, or say anything. We were there to celebrate a birthday and we were not offered dessert much less a free dessert.

    Might be the worst service I’ve ever had. We had reservations at 1630. They had 4 servers, a host and 2 bussers. They had 5 tables full of 4 or less guests. We waited over 15 minutes to be greeted and a drink order taken. I saw every server look in our direction but no one came or alerted our server. The service at other tables seemed appropriate so not sure why a family of 4 was ignored. Also 2 of our plates came out and then minutes went by before the last 2 were served.

    We are very sorry your experience with our service was not up to our standards, and that it made an impact on your dining experience! We do appreciate your feedback on where we could have done better, as we use this information to better train our staff and make adjustments so things like this don't happen in the future. We hope to see you soon and that we do much better with our dining room presence.
