    Pulled pork

    This is actually my first yelp review, I hate leaving places bad reviews because I love a good small business. This was the most indelible barbecue I've ever got. The pulled pork is ground shit. The cornbread was raw. Mac and cheese was cold. Idk how you can mess something up so bad.

    Give me 45 mins and a bottle of liquid smoke and I could make a better brisket in an easy bake oven

    Wow. The driest ribs I have had in my life. Tastes like they kept last week's ribs. Super skip, everything was bad.

    A friend ordered lunch with Chicken Wings with honey old bay sauce,deviled eggs, and hash browns…read more All the food especially the chicken wings-- they were crispy, crunchy, and very meaty. The honey old bay sauce was amazing and a good compliment to the chicken wings.Tge eggs were moist and fluffy. Hash browns were nice and crispy. Overall, great food and I will definitely be ordering from them again soon.

The only downside was that the music was a little louder than I prefer, making conversation slightly difficult at times. Our waitress was incredibly personable and friendly, and she made us feel very welcome. Service was a bit slow, but it appeared she was the only server working that day, so it was understandable. The food more than made up for the wait. The biscuits were absolutely fantastic. The spring salad was one of the best salads I've had in a long time. The grilled chicken on top was seasoned beautifully and cooked perfectly, juicy and tender without being overdone. I'd definitely come back for the food and the welcoming service. Hopefully they'll have a little more staff next time, but it was still a very enjoyable meal.

I had a meal with shrimp, green beans, and potatoes, and every bite was delicious. Chef Drew did an outstanding job! The service was just as impressive as the food. My servers, Paris and Mike, checked on me throughout my meal to make sure everything was perfect, and the Manager, Maggie, also stopped by to see how my experience was going. I truly appreciated the attentive service, welcoming atmosphere, and overall dining experience. Great job to the entire team! I highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to visiting again when I'm back in the area.

    Well hello there... I'm delighted to write this review of Tupelo Honey…read more Let me first start off by saying I was fortunate enough to attend the opening of the original one in Asheville, NC then I went to the opening of second one in my hometown of Greenville, SC. I must say Tupelo Honey Is such a beautifully crafted place that pulls you out of the everyday hustle and bustle and places you within the southern comfort and warmth that oozes through the ambiance with smiles when they great you. It's natural unforced southern hospitality from A-Z. Also of note If you're able to please ask for the (Chef's Table) and thank me later! Now to the food I started off with the famous fried green tomatoes as an appetizer then I ordered a fresh squeezed pineapple juice that was just delicious after that the amazing shrimp and grits that's so delightful and the creole sauce is blended to perfection. Here's a little food hack for ya, add pieces of your fried green tomatoes into your shrimp and grits I promise you won't regret it!! for dessert you absolutely have to try the strawberry butter pecan cheesecake!! Whaaaaaat?? Yes... you read that correctly.. so just take my word for it and trust me"The Butler Brand Review" I will always remain true.. Hats off to you Tupelo Honey of Arlington, VA it's awesome to know that the classic signature of your brand remains the same no matter the location!!! But all I ask let's kick it up a notch and put one in NY and CT why not show the Tri state and New England area some love and what they've been missing!!! I'm here to help lol Happy dining, W.D.

    Having really enjoyed our meal at Milk & Honey in DC, we were very happy to see another location…read moreopen up in Northern VA.  Though it didn't quite match our other meal, we still enjoyed the food and excellent and very friendly service.  The space is in a strip center with ample parking.   The dining room is pretty noisy and apparently can get a little warm when filled to capacity as it was so we opted to sit in the covered outside area to the side of the restaurant.  This worked out really well.  We ordered the milk & honey latte which was amazing at the DC location.  Here, it was good but just a little sweeter than I would have hoped.  We shared the butter glazed biscuits which were delicious and light with the butter and preserves.  Two of us went for breakfast choices with a Biscoff waffle and a honey butter pancakes.  Though it is listed as a side, the waffle was full side and came with beautiful strawberries and whipped cream.  It was a tiny bit dry but also nice and crispy.  When eaten with the whipped cream it was great and the Biscoff cookie on top was a yummy topper.  The pancakes were like Dutch baby ones - really tall.  The serving was really generous and we ended up taking one home.  The gumbo must have been really good because my dining partner ate it all down before I could get a taste   Our server was very friendly and helpful.  And, even though she was super busy, we never felt at all ignored.  Welcome to VA Milk & Honey!  We are so glad you are here!

    Place is a joke. Waited 6 minutes for an employee to even notice im here…read more Only 2 tables occupied. Seems busy chit chattying in kitchen. I can probably walk in here and take everything without them noticing who even took it.

    Friendly & casual vibe with a counter set-up where you enter, grab a menu or look at well-lit…read morescreens above the action. You walk along counter admiring the selections of sides, deserts. You order at the end, and find a seat. Your name is called and you pick up at the side counter. The dining area has plenty of seating, a private room looks available to reserve? Dining area & restrooms are bright, clean and inviting. My brother ordered fried fish with a chicken wing,, cabbage and sweet potatoes. He loved the fish & chicken- well seasoned without feeling your blood pressure rise as you indulged- LOL. The sides were good. I did the smothered porkchops - WOW, best that I have had - really enjoyed the main entrée and my sides (greens, black-eye peas). Both meals came with cornbread (another option was a biscuit). I have to say the food, the Staff and the establishment has been my best taste of southern cooking in the DMV area. I ordered chicken wings (6) to go for wife & I to enjoy later. Definitely worth a visit, we will be back - The smothered chops are calling me already. Lunch for two with a take home order of wings & 2 deserts plus tip was around $100.

    Been to the old location…read more Been to the new location. I don't get the hype. The food is basic at best. The fish (catfish and croaker) always tastes like it's been fried in grease that needs changing. There's no flavor profile in the food which is weird for a soul-food restaurant. The mixed veggies were absolutely disgusting-- gave them back. I paid $65 for fried catfish with two sides, fried croaker with two sides, a cookie and two drinks---and sadly, the only thing that was sort of worth it was the cornbread, but it tastes like it has coconut in it. I hate coconut. The item that was the most flavorful for me was the black eyed peas/hoppin John (minus the big pieces of fatty meat in them).

    Was picking up a pair of glasses nearby and was getting hungry for lunch. Saw Della J nearby. Glad…read moreI went. I dined in for lunch. At the time, I could do brunch or lunch. I chose lunch and order fried okra for an appetizer and a meatloaf lunch entree with 2 sides for my main. All delicious! The okras were fresh and fried nicely and came with a tasty sauce for dipping. The meatleaf came with my choice of mashed potatoes and cole slaw. The meatloaf was one of the better meatlofs I've had at a restaurant in recent memory. The sides were also very good, with the slaw being perfectly prepared. I had. O room for dessert but I might return for either their bread pudding or their banana pudding. Overall, good southern-style food, good service.

    Made a reservation on ToastTab for Thursday evening live jazz. There were about 13 of us in total…read moreall seated at different tables, but in the same section. The service was fine. There was a woman (maybe a manager or owner) who walked around to every table asking if things were okay. My husband ordered the pasta with marinara (not realizing it came with cheese- he had to send it back, he does not do dairy or meat). They should note that cheese is on it on the menu. I ordered three chicken wings (they were oversized - not my preference), potato salad, black eyed peas and one piece of cornbread. The chicken lacked flavor. It was just big and kind of greasy. The sides were fine. Ordered a piece of sweet potato pie to go and that was fine. The jazz contained a lot of talking. It was nice when they started playing line dancing music and there was a small area to dance. The dancing wasn't offensive or in the way...it was just right. Then came more talking. And advertising of a cruise, etc. It was okay, but I wish they played more music than talking. The same night, the restaurant attempted to charge me for a missed reservation fee ($5 per person). Luckily, I keep my AMEX locked. Weird, I gave my name to the hostess upon check-in. Wonder if that's happened to others. All-in-all, it was an okay experience. Not opposed to trying the restaurant again, but not necessarily rushing to get there.
