Southern
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.

Our Dog Friendly Patio is available year-round. Ask our host about our special dog menu! The patio is covered from the elements, but does not have heaters.

    Third time trying this place and honestly, the food is just bad. The biscuits were AMAZING. That blueberry jam?? flawless. The chicken was rough, dry, rubbery, and bland as all hell. the broccolini was actually pretty good. The pimento cheese was salty and overbearing. The shrimp had a metallic taste. The drinks were great.

    Absolutely a horrible experience. We typically frequent the Arlington location. This location is nothing like what we are use to. Horrible service from the waitress, the kitchen and even the General Manager, Austin! We were totally taken back when we asked for the general manager and it was him. He was rude and his service recovery was awful after receiving cold food from the kitchen, we waited almost an hour and 25 mins for our food. Our food was remade and the only thing that came out hot was the grits. However there was a manage ( I think her name is Michelle) she was very nice and apologetic for the horrible experience. The whole experience was awful!

    My favorite restaurant. Love the mimosas. Miss the sweet potato pancakes. Always get the same menu items: Sweet & Spicy chicken (white), collard greens, and make and cheese. Yum

    In my opinion, southern cooking can be a hit and miss. However, in this case, all the food was on point, and everything consumed was delicious. Nothing was too salty or incorrectly cooked. In fact, the tiny details are what won me over big time.

    Tupelo Honey - Virginia BeachResponded on May 16, 2023We appreciate you taking the time to let us know how we did. We're so glad to hear you enjoyed our scratch-made southern dishes! Our kitchen crew will love to hear about this. We hope to see you again soon.

    Citrus drink taste like water and spritzer. Chicken and Mac waffle tasted of old grease. Biscuit was hard AF. Banana pudding was good. Maybe it was a bad night, idk? Once and done for me.

    The food was just fair. One of our dishes came out cold. We had wine I found the price very high for a skimpy pour. Wine glasses very small especially for red wine. Our server did a good job. Not Exceptional.

    Easter Sunday brunch did not disappoint at Tupelo Honey! The food was delicious, as always. The Bloody Mary’s were good, but seemed a bit overpriced for the portion. That said, I have every intention of returning next time I am in town. Honestly, truly great food!

    Well! The outside seating on a 75°F breezy day was amazing! The service was great. The food was not. Salty pimento cheese potato skins and unsatisfying sriracha chicken. Everything was played pretty though. My friends recommend the alcoholic drinks!

    My wife and I 21st anniversary. When we arrived we were seated quickly. We had our 4 yr old daughter and the kids menu was not kid friendly. We ordered our food an it was not what we expected. We had friend talk very highly of Tupelo and I guess we went on the wrong night. I had the Mahi dinner with asparagus and fried Brussels. Mahi was very salty asparagus was ok Brussels were very good. Temperature of food not even warm. Like it was sitting in the window waiting for server to come when she could. My wife had meatloaf with Brussels she gotten about quarter of the way through and said she had enough. My daughter had elbow noodles with garlic sauce. I didn’t taste any garlic on them. So to say the least at dinner over all we were not happy with and anniversary went a little different after that.

    Everyone in our party really enjoyed their meal. We enjoyed all of our entrees but the sides and the fried green tomato appetizer were the hits of the day. Unfortunately, we were too full to order the biscuits but they looked amazing. We had excellent customer service and the hostess on duty was very friendly and welcoming. We'll definitely be back!

    Food took 45 mins to come out , they apologized and my meal of $34.58 was free ! That was my 1st time ever having to wait so long for my food at this location, they’re normally on point. I eventually was notified after they paid my tab that they were short staff in the kitchen which is understandable. Other than that this spot if A1 !
