   Food is good. Cocktails are weak and not worth the cost. Service is always really great though.

   We were there on Mother’s Day. The restaurant was very busy and we were seated 15 minutes after our reservation time. We waited about 35 more minutes for our food to arrive. The chicken & waffles, the meat loaf were good,the shrimp and grits was just ok no flavor and the chicken fingers looked like they were fried twice and were very dry. Our server , Mary,was very attentive and did a good joj. Doubt if we would ever go back.

   This was my first time visiting this restaurant and brought my mother for Mother’s Day. We waited 1hr 30 mins to receive our food which was unacceptable. We sat on the patio and none of the ceiling fans worked so it was very hot which made it hard to enjoy the atmosphere. I ate the chicken and waffles but by the time my food came my waffles were cold and soggy. The chicken was good and had a lot of flavor. The waiter was apologetic and gave us a small discount on our bill, but for what we went through I felt a little more could’ve been done from a customer service standpoint. I was truly looking forward to trying out the restaurant, but after the experience I had I will not be going back.

   Grace was our server tonight and the whole table feels as though she could’ve provided better customer service. It was a busy time but everyone around us received better service than us, which is disappointing. She lacked manners and basic customer service skills, drinks were left unfilled unless we requested, empty appetizers were left at the table even after new ones were ordered, we had to ask her to remove them. Her attitude seemed as though she didn’t want to serve us until it was time for checks. Yes, we tipped her, but she received what she deserved for the service.

   We came in at 11am… (understand it’s a holiday) but.. from the host.. to the table.. to the service.. to the food.. (not worth 120 for five people).. we left at 1:30.. food is not flavorful.. the food came out.. WAY overdone and crispy.. and everything… took quite a long time.. servers couldn’t be found or seen for that matter.. let along a manager or anyone coming around to check on tables. Again. Understand it’s a holiday. (Have also worked the serving world for 10+ years) clearly.. there were some.. mishaps or incorrect planning.. but sadly we will not be back… I wanted to give them a chance.. and we were left unsatisfied. (Leaving half full plates and no leftovers were taken).

I sincerely apologize for how your day turned out, especially on a holiday meant for celebration. It would mean so much to me to speak to you directly about your experience and make things right. I will be sending you a message privately as well. At your earliest convenience, please reach out to me to discuss your experience further. I would hate to have this be your last experience at Tupelo Honey and if I am able, I will do everything I can to make sure that your next experience is way better and what you should expect from Tupelo Honey.

    Happy hour (3pm-6pm) food was excellent value - 1/2 the cost of the regular menu pricing.
