Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen & Bar

Took German relatives for Southern food. The atmosphere is good but the heated patio we were on was a bit cool but quiet though full. Service was great, recommendation by the server were spot on. Drinks, followed by Fried Green Tomatoes, and our main courses (mine being the bourbon peppercorn glazed meatloaf with salad and grits) were great. No room for dessert ! After glasses were refilled as needed but no one hovered. Highly recommend (recommended to us by our hotel valet-he will get an extra tip for that)!

First full day of exploring Asheville and we stopped here for lunch. Placed was packed and we didn’t have reservations, but thankfully there was a cancellation and we got right in! James our server was so nice and friendly! We’ve seen good things on YouTube about this place and it did not disappoint. We ate the biscuits before I could get a photo, but they were a great starter along with the fried green tomatoes! Our meals were all delicious and my wife loved her specialty moonshine martini! Thanks!

Absolutely disgusting gross!!!! The honey dusted fried chicken was over cooked on the outside and had this thick gross stuffing like crap half cooked in the middle. I asked if it was stuffing and the waitress said no their breading. The Mac and cheese was bland and noodles overcooked. My husbands chicken breast was so overcooked and hard he only ate a few bites. We really wanted to enjoy the food. The mimosas flight was the best thing

The staff at Tupelo were amazing on what seemed like a very busy Sunday evening. Everyone was pitching in to clear tables, get guests seated, and treated everyone with a welcoming disposition. Food was amazing too! Great service, great food, and great atmosphere!

My wife and I have made Tupelo Honey a must-stop every time we’re in Asheville for the holidays. As Southerners, we are incredibly picky about fried green tomatoes, but this is the first place we’ve found that actually does them the "correct" way. The food is consistently excellent: Shrimp & Grits: One of the best versions of this dish I’ve ever had. Honey-Dusted Fried Chicken: My wife’s go-to—she gets it every single visit and loves it. Cocktails: The dirty martini is solid, and the chocolate-mint espresso martini was a delicious seasonal surprise. The only downside: Parking is a major challenge in this area. Definitely plan to arrive 20 minutes early just to find a spot. Aside from that, it’s a 10/10 experience!
