Food was good and served hot and fresh. If you’re accustomed to true southern cooking (salty and/or sweet) you’ll enjoy it. The Yankee husband liked the sweet and spicy chicken. Macaroni and cheese was a tad bland but good. I really enjoyed my original fried chicken, fried okra, and Brussels sprouts. It was more food than I could eat. The sweet Tea is also tooth achingly sweet like I like it. I would recommend it. Great atmosphere, good food, and very friendly staff.

Nice southern inspired restaurant in downtown Des Moines. Brussel sprout appetizer was good, chicken sandwich very good and mac n cheese was outstanding. Drinks were also good. They were very busy so the service was slow but decent. They only seemed to have one bartender for the entire bar.
Food and drinks were good, I will return on a less busy evening.

I was surprised. The staff and place are really nice. Good service and overall a good experience.
I got a hot chicken sandwich. To my surprise it was kinda cold and dry chicken which is hard as it’s a chicken thigh. Also surprising was there was almost no flavor or seasoning. Just a bland piece of dry cold chicken. Definitely not what I was expecting. The Brussels sprouts were good.
Maybe it was an off day but the food did not match the expectations. I would however try it again.

My wife and I had a very enjoyable time here. The service was friendly and the ambience was nice. The sriracha chicken and waffles had just the right balance of flavours. My wife’s dish had some slightly undercooked eggs but they made that right very quickly. She enjoyed it and it was a hefty portion. The drinks were well priced. The desserts were very delectable. I personally recommend the pecan pie though my wife would have you know it’s quite rich. Recommended.

We had an amazing experience at Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen & Bar! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm, inviting, and full of Southern charm. The décor strikes the perfect balance between modern and cozy, making it a great spot for everything from brunch with friends to a relaxed date night.
The food was absolutely phenomenal. Every dish was packed with bold, comforting flavors and beautifully presented. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy, the biscuits were melt-in-your-mouth delicious, and the sides were just as impressive as the main course. You can truly taste the quality and care in every bite.
The service was just as outstanding as the food. Our server was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations and making sure everything was perfect throughout our meal.

Got the hot waffle and Mac n cheese for dinner. Super fluffy waffle and really good, crispy chicken. Wish there was more spicy sauce but that’s a personal preference.
Also got the fried pickles as an appetizer; they were okay. A little salty for my liking but the ranch is clearly homemade which was a big plus. Service and atmosphere were great too.

The collards greens were ok but not what I expected. They needed more flavor. Everything else was good! Especially the Famous Fried Green Tomatoes!

In town for a show and stopped by for dinner. The vibe is what I might describe as garden modern and chic. Loved the wooden chandeliers and plants all around. I think they may have been short handed this Thursday evening because it took awhile to get seated, then awhile to get noticed, awhile for drinks, etc… nothing too speedy although staff was very sweet and helpful. We shared the fried pickles – good but a little salty. We enjoyed the thin pickle slices vs some that are too thick. Decided to share the pork tenderloin and onion rings for our entree. We’ve had better and definitely had worse – just nothing spectacular. I will say, the other more “southern” dishes coming out of the kitchen looked amazing so this issue may have been purely what we selected from the menu! All in all fun spot and we would try again.

My husband and I went here for lunch and ordered the siracha honey chicken and waffles and the sweet tea chicken sandwich. They both were so good and had great flavor. I also ordered the lavender lemonade, which was very strong in its flavor. The building is beautiful with a quiet atmosphere. The staff were very friendly and helpful. There are so many food and drink options to choose from. We plan to come back and try more! Highly recommend!

Best lemonade I’ve ever had. I had the bourbon Meatloaf very tasty and loved the sauce. Had the fried orka and fried pickles for an app.
