My granddaughter and I ate here for lunch on last Tuesday while we were attending a youth…read moreconference at Harrah's in Atlanta city. It was some of THEE BEST soul food I have had in a long time. Too bad I forgot to take pics of the food. I ordered fried Cajun catfish, potato salad and collard greens. The Cajun catfish and potato salad are to die for, you hear me???? The collard greens were okay but were not seasoned the way I would have liked. Also, they don't serve bread with their meals. Would have loved a piece of white bread or cornbread. My 14 year old granddaughter ordered fried chicken wings and was sucking the bones. She also ordered the Mac n Cheese which she said was to die for! She, too, felt the collard greens were okay but nothing to write home about. Neither of us ate our greens. We wanted to order sweet iced tea which is usually a staple in most soul food restaurants but at 2:30pm they had already run out. Also, we wanted to eat in the dining room but they said the dining room closes at 2:00pm :-( so we got our food to go and ate in the car. Mind you, it was about 90 degrees outside but we turned the air conditioning on in the car and enjoyed our lunch. Too bad I discovered this place on the day before I left the conference because otherwise I would have been eating here everyday of the conference.

Was a tad…read moreconcerned regarding some of the reviews so we ordered take-out through DoorDash but when we arrived, the service seemed fantastic and the ambiance of the restaurant was super nice and modern. Would definitely dine-in next time and I believe the owner gave us some samples of a crab mac that tasted great. Ordered the Bayou Boil and the fish and chips and they gave us utensils, plenty of napkins, a bib and some gloves which was great. Fish and chips were solid but the boil was truly some of the best my wife and I have ever had. Huge portions and lots of crab legs, crawfish among others. Don't really write reviews but wanted to alleviate some concerns if potential diners had any. Would highly highly recommend this place!

I've never waited for food so long in my life! I'm not sure if there's one chef or ... but the…read morecrowd that kept coming in and out to pick up take out orders made me want to wait and see. I ordered the chicken wing and shrimp platter which comes with two pieces of fried chicken and 4 fried shrimp. I give them all a 10/10. Seasoned PERFECTLY. It also comes with two sides, which I chose the yams and collard greens. The greens were kind of bland but not terrible but the yams were excellent. At first I didn't like the idea of being served in a takeout container but it's actually nice to be able to just take your left overs just like that. I really liked the food and it was a nice and short walk from the boardwalk. I must say though, they really should have some bread or water and drinks to offer you while you wait for a hour for your food! other than that ...

Wild Honey BBQ - Tropicana, Atlantic City…read more Food Quality & Taste The ribs did what they were supposed to do--show up and be tender. My St. Louis quarter rack was enjoyable, not fall-off-the-bone dramatic, but definitely tender enough to get the job done. The tater tots and coleslaw were decent--no complaints, no standing ovation either. Just solid sides that played their position. Hubby? He kept it simple with tequila shots--and based on his face, they did exactly what tequila is supposed to do Value for the Price About $50 for ribs and two shots isn't bad for Atlantic City, especially inside Tropicana. It feels like a fair deal for a quick bite and a little sip-sip. Cleanliness I didn't get a full tour since we did takeout, but from what I could see, the place looked clean and well put together. No red flags visually. Customer Service No issues here. The process was smooth, and everything was handled without any confusion or attitude. Wait Time & Convenience Takeout was easy and convenient--perfect for grabbing food and keeping it moving. Plus, being inside Tropicana makes it a great stop if you're already in the area hopping around. Presentation & Atmosphere From what I saw, the vibe looked nice and not overly crowded or chaotic. Definitely feels like a place you could come back to and actually sit down for a chill date night. And let's not ignore the bonus--you can step downstairs and grab a cute photo by the fountain like you planned the whole evening Red Flags or Warnings Now listen...my only issue was with the takeout containers. The boxes my food came in? The adhesive on the sides was coming loose, and I had questions. Where are we storing these boxes? Because the other containers were perfectly fine, so something wasn't adding up. Not a dealbreaker, but definitely worth noting. Just be careful with your bags. Overall: Wild Honey BBQ is a solid, no-stress option--good ribs, easy takeout, and a nice vibe if you decide to dine in next time. It's the kind of spot you can enjoy without overthinking it, especially if you're already at Tropicana. My stamp on this place is... "Something to do with your Boo"

Holy crap. I was not expecting to be blown away at an Atlantic City soul food spot. This order is…read moreso good, I'm writing this review as I eat. Ordered from Grub hub and delivery was quick with great communication. I am a picky soul food eater so there first thing I tasted upon opening this take out was the collard greens. On first glance, I was sure that this would be homemade and not "out the can". As expected, it was savory with chunks of turkey meat. A+ Lemon Pepper wings was equally savory. I asked for extra lemon pepper which did make it slightly salty. However, the wings were whole lightly fried And not greasy. A Now everything can't be marvelous. The potatoes salad was just ok, it complimented and balanced the party in my mouth , although it seemed that it was missing something.... B Prices was reasonable and far less than rivalry limited soul food AC spots. I dare not eat this entire plate... It's early afternoon and I foresee this is nap producing... This will be late lunch and dinner later. Support local black businesses and order from here.

They have a few tables inside to sit and eat if you're interested. The service is pretty good. The woman behind the counter is quite friendly and was helpful in deciding what I ordered. I spent about $70 and ordered the following: Fried Whiting platter with Yams and Collard Greens Jerk Chicken - just chicken 3 wings and fries Curried Chicken platter with rice and cabbage The fried whiting platter in terms of the fish was a smashing hit. I loved the fish. Seasoned well, no bones, great on the portion size. The candid yams were lacking cinnamon, softness, and taste. Could have been much better along with the seasonless greens. I definitely needed so salt. The Jerk Chicken was too soft to me and didn't have a true jerk taste. After two bites it went in the trash. The 3 wings and fries were good to me. While not actually wings and moreso wingettes they are a good size. Nice and crunchy. The curried chicken ok. The cabbage was lacking season. The rice was ok. Overall if I happened to be in the area I'd only want the fish. Most of the food lacks seasoning and isn't with it to me but the chicken and fish are a hit for me.
