    This place is a little hidden but this does not stop the crowd from stopping by to eat. Super cute location, nicely decorated, and has a photo op. They did seem a little busy and I believe there may have been a shift change at some point. It took us 15 mins to get a table outside. I will add the wait time is the only bummer in my experience. It took a good minute to get our beverages and food. There was a crowd but it seemed to be in and out pretty quicky. The food was great! I ordered their sangria, very refreshing and not overly sweet. Southern shakshuka. $15.99 two eggs* baked in a tomato, spinach, & peperonata sauce, over stone-ground goat cheese grits, topped with basil (710 cal) - This combo was good, loved the creaminess and even had leftovers for the next day. Sweet & Spicy Fried Chicken & Waffles $16.99 Hand-breaded crispy chicken tenders drizzled with sriracha honey, served over golden buttermilk waffles. --enjoyed the Spiciness it truly was subtle but did grow as you continued to eat. The buttermilk Waffles were fluffy and light and full bite with the drizzled syrup was everything. Enjoyed the flavors of the whiskey flight and happy you have the flavor cards to be able to give the tasting a proper review. Over all price is average in comparison but the food quality is there so I have no issue spending an extra dollar or so. I would like to stop by again when it's less busy.

    The food was pretty good! Went for a corporate dinner and they handled the big group pretty well. Loved that the server and chef refused to bring us out the fried pickles when they couldn't get batter to stick and only brought them out when they were perfect! Now THATS service. They also had great recs when some of my coworkers were indecisive

    Sweet and spicy chicken sandwich

    Amazing service and delicious food. I can't wait to come back. 10 out of 10. The environment is so pleasant and cute decor. Nice music too. Definitely adding this place to my favorite.

    Fresh biscuits

    Warm and welcoming staff! Michael's service today was excellent, mindful and courteous check-ins. We ordered the half chicken which probably explains the longer than usual wait for food to arrive. It was definitely savory spicy and tasty but it did arrive lukewarm as did the soup on his plate, our neighboring guests arrived much later than us, received their meals and finished before we even got ours on the table...so not sure what happened there with orders coming out of the kitchen. The omelet was perfect...beautiful fresh vegetables inside a pocket of hot scramble, with the Parmesan potatoes I chose for the side, it was delicious. Will gladly come back for something new to try

    This is my first time going to the Irving location and it was the perfect spot for a group lunch! We got biscuits, fried green tomatoes and a half order of fried chicken as starters. The biscuits hit the spot and the jam and butter that it comes with is so delicious, no notes!! For our meal, my entire table got the flat iron steak and it comes with two sides. I got a soup and a salad but you can choose from Mac and cheese, other standard southern comfort sides. They also had a full bar great beer menu and even had coffee options. The blueberry cold brew was so good I would come back just for that cold brew. The food hit the spot, especially if you're craving some comfort food.

    Have been to Tupelo a few times and try something new on the menu each time. Everything is delicious! Love that they have a seasonal menu as well as seasonal drinks. Extra bonus for being dog friendly on their patio with plenty seating inside and out. Service is always great and all servers are very attentive.

    Southern Fried Okra
    Kaysha K.

    Met at Tupelo Honey with a couple of friends for lunch. The food was great! I only managed to get a picture of the fried okra, but I also ordered the fried green tomatoes and the half sandwich lunch special with tomato soup, with a sweet tea to drink. All really delicious! There are lots of great options on the menu for both food and drinks. I have been to both locations by this point, and it was consistently good. I'll be eager to go back and order different items to try!

    I went here with a friend for lunch and we had a wonderful experience. The restaurant is decorated in very good taste. We had great service. I got the chicken sandwich with onion rings and I have no complaints at all. I also believe it was a very good price point. I would definitely come back again!

    Famous Fried Green Tomatoes*
    Syd G.

    Stopped here for a late brunch. No wait and not completely full on a Sunday late morning. The service was pretty slow. It seemed like the staff was crawling at a snails pace. We finally got an order in and started with the fried green tomatoes. They were pretty good and liked the super crispy outside. I had the shrimp and grits and it was good but so rich. I could only eat half of it. That seemed to the theme for our brunch. The food was very rich and hard to eat it all. The taste was good but whatever they used in the dishes was extremely rich. Ok good but probably won't come back.

    Happy hour menu HH
    Amy W.

    FANTASTIC HAPPY HOUR SELECTION AND PRICES ! Happy hour here for the win, seriously! I had been to a Yelp event at this spot before, but my husband and I are always on the hunt for solid and affordable happy hour deals. This place was absolutely worth checking out. They offer a great selection of happy hour appetizers, but the real surprise was their happy hour entrées for just $12.95. There were about 10-12 options, and each comes with a side (about 7 choices). Score. We started with the fried green tomatoes, served on a creamy grit-meets-risotto base that was unexpectedly exceptional. Then we shared the happy hour entrée of cast iron pork with a side of Asian-style Brussels sprouts. To be fair, the sprouts would probably shine more in the winter when they're smaller and sweeter, but the pork was fantastic. Crispy and juicy bites all around. A couple of warm tortillas on the side would make that dish even better. We will definitely be back. The cocktails during happy hour are a steal at just $5 each. Great food, great value, and a great vibe.

    Shaken Iced Matcha Latte
    Samantha G.

    My husband and I met up with some friends at Tupelo Honey! I've actually heard a lot of good things about this restaurant from my FIL and colleagues in NC! I forgot we had one so close to us here in DFW! Ambiance: Beautiful interiors! Very spacious, bright, and welcoming! Service: Friendly service, but wasn't all that quick. The food makes up for this! Food: if you love southern cuisine, Tupelo Honey is the place to try! Appetizer- Fried Pickles. The fried pickles thinly sliced and are lightly battered. Very different from what you get at a State/County fair. I love the tanginess of the pickles! Entree- I ordered their fried chicken with a side of goat cheese grits (the meal comes with 1 choice of sides). The fried chicken (ordered dark meat) was plenty of good! It had 2 pieces of meaty chicken, seasoned to perfection! Very flavorful and very juicy. The goat cheese grits were smooth and homey. Drink- Matcha honey latte was great!

    Buttermilk Fried Chicken, Crispy Brussels, Grits
    Kimberlin G.

    The biscuits are SO GOOD, our favorite spread was the peach butter. Had a variety of food and chicken, 8/10. The Brussels were good but quite salty! Then dessert was the next winner. Got all 3 and our favorite was the mud pie!

    Blueberry Lemonade

    It's was a wonderful Sunday Morning and we decided to enjoy a delicious meal at Tupelo Honey. I was we entered we stood for about 10 minutes before the staff acknowledged us. I had eye contact and everything. No worries though as patience is a virtue right lol. The atmosphere is bright and vibrant welcoming to the eye and calming our kind of place. Overall the amazing customer service from Michael made up for the delay.

At first, I was a little hesitant because the menu is fairly small, but after my meal, I can see why. Every dish we ordered was absolutely a 10/10. I had the chicken with greens and shrimp fried rice, along with the fried green tomatoes and cornbread. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. I honestly don't have a single negative thing to say about either the food or the service. This was an amazing dining experience, and I will definitely be back. Highly recommend!

I do want to start with the positives. Our waiter was fantastic. He was very attentive, explained the menu thoroughly, and provided excellent service. The food also came out incredibly fast and piping hot, which is becoming rare these days. We started with the cornbread, and it was easily a 10/10. It was worth every bit of the $12. We ordered the fried chicken, greens, shrimp fried rice, biscuits, and hot water cornbread. The fried chicken was crispy and tender, but it lacked seasoning. I'd give it a 7/10. They served it with a house hot sauce, but surprisingly it had no heat and almost no flavor. I even asked the person I was dining with if they tasted anything because it was like pouring sauce on the chicken without changing the flavor at all. The greens were just okay on their own, but once we added the vinegar they became amazing. That made me wonder why the vinegar isn't incorporated into the greens from the start. The hot water cornbread had virtually no flavor. The shrimp fried rice was cooked really well, but it had an unexpected Caribbean-style seasoning that threw me off. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't what I was expecting, and it made it hard to fully enjoy. The biscuits were probably the biggest disappointment. They were dry and hard. One thing I also noticed is that, for a family style restaurant where you're encouraged to order several dishes to share, the tables feel too small. Once all the food arrived, there wasn't much room left, and even packing up our leftovers was awkward because of the lack of space. One standout that deserves recognition was the iced tea. It had what tasted like a subtle hint of mint and was incredibly refreshing. Easy 10/10. From the cuts of chicken we received, it appears they break down and fry whole chickens, which is perfectly fine. However, at $56 for a fried chicken that lacked seasoning, I found the price hard to justify. Maybe the cooking method or oil contributes to the cost, but I expected much more flavor for that price. Overall, I'd rate my experience a 7.5/10. Would I come back? Yes. I'd be willing to give Roots another chance and try something different from the menu. But when I hear Southern food, I expect bold seasoning and comforting flavors, and that's the one area where this meal really fell short.

DFW is massive. My friend was 30 mins late, but I wasn't trippin. I used that time to charge my phone and get a little work done. We didn't have a resy, but were seated right away. First of all, this place is massive. We both started with the espresso martini before realizing they had a happy hour menu. Our second drink was from the hh menu even though we had no business having a second cocktail. To start, we shared the fried green tomatoes. For whatever reason, we both ended up getting the western burger. Food was great. There was so much of it that I was only able to finish half and ended up taking the rest home. Great service as well. The place was crowded by the time we left. We only planned to stay for 45 minutes, but ended up staying for nearly 2 hours. Big thanks to the bartender.

Clearly a popular spot. We shared an appetizer, a steak, sides, and a dessert between us 3. - Fried Tomatoes (appetizer): not bad! Light, not greasy at all, and that savory sauce on top was yummy: - Wagyu Tomahawk: the star of the show. Loved the peppered crust which was full of flavor. Not a true "Japanese wagyu" texture, but still an excellent steak overall. - Sides (mashed potatoes, fries, broccolini, cornbread): All pretty good across the board. I liked the cornbread the most and wished there was more of it. Usually a side of cornbread is much more substantial and comes with honey butter. - Steak sauce: we ask for a side of this. Whatever they had was unique and great. Fruity and tangy, a great complement to the tomahawk. - Pecan Pie: look at the photo! A huge, tall slice. No notes. Loved the dense ice cream on top. Perfect way to end the meal. Overall: no critiques, just an all-around great dinner. Definitely recommend the tomahawk and pie.

The sandwich was HUGE (as my husband likes to say "quantity is a quality all on its own"). I was very glad we spilt it. That said, I could easily be convinced the chicken was a frozen patty, since there was nothing particularly special about it. The fries looked so promising and homemade with that brown patina (think Five Guys), which had me excited, but they ended up flabby and not very hot, insert sad face. All in all, it is another DFW spot I am glad I tried once, but I do not feel the need to go back.
