We celebrated a birthday and enjoyed the good service and excellent food. The restaurant was quiet in the late afternoon, and we were able to enjoy a leisurely meal. Excellent meal and experience.

About the restaurant

Tupelo Honey is a revival of Southern food and traditions rooted in the Carolina Mountains we call home.

Please arrive on time with all members in your party present. We will cancel reservations 15 minutes after the scheduled time. The combining of separate reservations will NOT be honored. If you book a high-top or outdoor table, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to accommodate the need for a low or indoor table upon your arrival. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Outstanding restaurant - from food to service to value. While DanDan has been around for nearly a decade, I have overlooked how inspiring Chinese-American cooking in Milwaukee could be. Loved the shareable aspect of this place. Started our dinner when our server brought out the delicious mungbean kimchee pancake and short rib / foie gras potstickers. Loved them both. DanDan noodles were wonderful with their peanut-forward flavor. Enjoyed the rice cakes and pork belly with more spicy kimchee. Shared the Mongolian beef with its deliciously stir-fried bell peppers. DanDan has a wonderful cocktail menu and mango crème brûlée. Only wished we lived nearby to have this as our goto carry out place for Chinese-American food.

Absolutely delicious food with an unbeatable atmosphere. The specials are to-die-for, so imagine what the dishes on the menu taste like as well. Our waitress was very attentive, but didn’t hover. And the flourless chocolate cake and cheesecake were outstanding. Definitely worth every penny.
