Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen & Bar

Food was tasty, but service was exceptionally slow. Our waitress was pleasant and attentive, but just like every other place, it seemed she could have used some help. She did the best she could. I had the mac n cheese chicken & waffles. My husband had the salmon. My food was delicious. He said the salmon lacked a bit of flavor, but the sauce with it was very tasty. The mimosa flights were very tasty, too. Overall, it was a nice night out, and we'd definitely dine here again. Oh, and sign up for their mailing list to get a free glass!

Ty was a wonderful server and did his best to accommodate both our needs AND wants in spite of the supply constraint caused by the after effects of hurricane Helene. The food was nothing short of divine and used seasonal ingredients to male the best out of every dining experience. I've never had the same thing twice because there are too many good options.

The waitress recommended the shrimp and grits and she was absolutely right! They were excellent! Such a good flavor and very creamy grits. My husband had the chip and dip chicken tenders and the French fries. The chicken was good and he said the french fries were outstanding! They seem to have a really crispy batter on them.

Intense flavors. Potatoes with a little more pinch of salt and pepper than usual. Excellent tortilla soup.

Tupelo Honey was recommended by a friend, so I thought I would check it out. I'm so glad I did. My sister and I went on a busy Saturday morning, we had an hr wait but it was sooo worth it! Everything was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection! The service was great as well. I just have one small complaint, and that's the seating situation. It was SUPER cramped, and we were seated at the bar area right where all the servers pick up their orders. So, we were elbow to elbow, and I felt in the way. At one point I had powered sugar come flowing my way, lol, not a big deal to me but maybe to others. Other than not, it was great and I will definitely return!

Tupelo was our last stop for a brunch before heading to the airport. WHAT a find! I ordered the breakfast combo plate that included gold potatoes that were baked and then crushed and deep-fried, then shaken with rosemary and Parmesan. Fantastic crunch and flavor. The chorizo patties were prepared like smash-burgers and had perfect chorizo spice. Not bland like many places that try to make patties. The Texas toast was accompanied by delicious fresh made blueberry compote. Wifie had the chicken with banana créme Brûlée that dissappear from her plate so fast I didn't get a taste, and she's tiny. I heard It was fantastic. This place is a must try.

Tupelo Honey southern kitchen & bar is a Must-to -Try!! Please make reservations in order of waiting for hours ! The outdoor patio in the front is a nice way to adventure out on Downtown Asheville… The atmosphere is crowded due to its being a small-medium 2sided restaurant. ( limited of people recommended) The drinks were delicious as-well the Food!! One side of my chicken was a little under cooked .. but overall it was Good 👍🏽

Wow, what an incredible experience! I can't stop raving about the amazing food, drinks, and service. Steve, was not only friendly and engaging but also provided us with some excellent dining recommendations. The fried green tomatoes were so fresh and crunchy, and the chicken and waffles were bursting with flavor and just the right amount of spice. And let me tell you, Sam, the bartender, is a true master. She made my old-fashioned cocktail just how I like it - nice and strong. I couldn't have asked for a better night out!

My friend and I came here last year and enjoyed breakfast. This year we came and enjoyed our Smash Burger, salad and fries. The burger was filling and delicious. The bun was buttery and the meat was moist. The service was great. Miranda was very nice and often checked on our table. This place is always busy but we were able to be seated quickly. I definitely recommend this restaurant and hope each new person enjoys their experience.

Tupelo Honey isn't as local as I thought it was. They have a presence across several states--including next door in Knoxville. Still, it's a very good spot. Listen, get an order or two of their 'biscuits for a cause' if you're in for breakfast or brunch. They're delicious and you get to contribute towards something. Win-win! Their farmhouse breakfast platter was an optimal meal for breakfast. I wasn't a fan of the crispy potatoes since they were over on the salt. Regardless, everything else on it was tasty and paired well with their specialty biscuits. Good coffee too! Great service and ambience all around.

We had brunch here on a Saturday. The brunch menu here is great and I will definitely come back again. Because it gets pretty busy on a Saturday, the food does take a while to come out though. Definitely factor this into your plans.

Hannah and Tyler were great! The food was succulent. I ordered the fried chicken with grits. The service was awesome also. The ambiance was nice and chill. I really love coming for the grits because it's a nice dish to eat the next day. Until next time, cheers!

Tip: Get reservations or you will end up waiting for a seat at the bar. The food is a unique take on southern food. We went for chicken and waffles and avocado toast with fried egg. Both were very tasty. I liked the sirracha drizzle on the toast. The bar tenders did a great job of keeping up with orders and customers at the bar.

Second time here and good just as delicious as before . Staff always friendly and helpful

We had dinner at 4 pm's d service and food was amazing. Server was extremely pleasant and attentive. We sat on patio and it was lovely. We started with fried Brussel sprouts that were absolutely amazing. I had shrimp and grits ( which I get a lot of places). These were the best ever. The grits alone were perfection, very buttery. The shrimp was cooked perfectly. My husband had the spicy fried chicken (it is spicy) but so delicious with collard greens which were cooked perfectly. This was a MUST return spot. Highly recommend. They were extremely quick with all of the items.

I recently visited Tupelo Honey in downtown Asheville twice, and both times the host was one of the most welcoming and friendly I've ever encountered. The restaurant has a vibrant, eclectic artist vibe mixed with Southern charm, making it a perfect fit for Asheville's unique atmosphere. The service was impeccable, and the food was truly impressive. The fried green tomatoes were the best I've ever had, and the chicken was incredible. Don't miss this gem!

The food was fantastic! We got the Farmhouse Breakfast platter & Morning Mountain Bowl plus the Biscuits for a cause. The Blueberry Jam is to die for! Bought a jar to take home They were busy, which I'm guessing they are always, but we were sat right away. We chose to sit at the bar, comfy chairs and the service was friendly and fast Our food came out at a lightening speed and was so good! We are in town for a short while but will definitely eat here next time!

Our adventure in Asheville when it came to finding food that had seasoning was difficult to say the least. However, on our last day, we stopped at Tupelo Honey for brunch after reading many reviews. It's best to make a reservation, otherwise you could be waiting a long time. The décor and atmosphere of Tupelo is charming, down to earth and representative of Asheville. We were fortunate to have Jamie as our waitress as she was very exceptional in all aspects of our dining experience. She gave great recommendations and truly empathized with us. I ordered the regular Chicken and Waffles and being a fan of them, I knew what to expect. Tupelo's take on Chicken and Waffles was very good and I was pleasantly surprised or finally happy to have great food in Asheville. The seasoning was plentiful, the portion sizes were great and the bacon on the side was a good addition. Overall, I enjoyed our meal at Tupelo Honey, our waitress was wonderful and you should ask for her when you dine here. The service was fast, professional, friendly and thoughtful. We will definitely make this a go to spot when visit Asheville in the future.

OH MY GOODNESS. What a fantastic place. I was there with a large group and we tried the pimento and cheese, the fried pickles and the crispy Brussels. Y'all, these appetizers are fantastic. You could make an amazing meal sharing with the entire table just with the appetizers!! I chose to have the pork shoulder slow cooked in DUCK FAT. That's right, a succulent pork shoulder slowly braised in DUCK FAT with sriracha honey glaze, pickled red onion, and cilantro. Add in the EXTRA crispy fries - that is what the menu calls the. (Emphasis added) and bacon braised collard greens - wow. I don't even know what everyone else had. I do know all the plates were clean. The service was on point. Friendly, knowledgeable, not too quick - just right. The location is very cool, and had the great vibe that all the downtown restaurants in Asheville have. When we picked this place, I did not realize that there are numerous locations (22) with one coming to Huntsville, AL SOON. Can't wait. This is a place to check out.

First family trip of the year and started it off at Teupelo Honey in the heart of downtown Asheville! We were thrilled to see they had a dog friendly environment including outdoor seating and fresh dog bowls. Service was pleasant but the food was divine! Highly recommend the fried green tomato's with the goat cheese grits! Omg! Great start to the trip!

We decided to stop in based on the amazing reviews before we left town on a Friday morning. We honestly didn't pay attention to what time they open and when we arrived about 9:45am they were not yet open. There were two couples already standing outside and we all admitted we didn't realize they did not open until 10am. Since it was less than 15 minutes until they opened we decided to stay and walk around a bit. We were really surprised how many people began arriving and cut our walk short so we could retain our place in line. When the doors opened at 10, there were about 15 people ready to be seated. The hostess asked us if we had a reservation to which we said no. She told us that was okay and grabbed menus and took us to a small table. Our server Emily, stopped in and took our drink orders. We asked her for recommendations and perused the menu. Tupelo Honey offers both breakfast and lunch options and the menu items all sounded great. My wife decided on the Braised Beef Barbacoa and grits and I chose the Bourbon Peppercorn Glazed Meatloaf with Mac n cheese and chicken tortilla soup. The interior is charming and there was a steady stream of people and the place filled up quickly. Our orders arrived in a timely manner and looked delicious. My wife dug into hers and said it tasted really good but could have been warmer. Emily checked in on us and my wife told her the temperature of her meal wasn't great and Emily immediately said she would put in another order. I started with my chicken tortilla soup, the flavor was yummy. I then started in on my meatloaf and mac and cheese which were both delicious! The meatloaf was very tender and the glaze was just right. The Mac and cheese had a little crunch on two sides from the pan it was baked. Emily brought my wife a new barbacoa and grits rather quickly which was really appreciated so we could eat our meals together. We really enjoyed our meal and Emily took really amazing care of us. She took what could have been a negative experience and turned it into a really positive one. This is also our first Tupelo Honey experience and we are excited to see they are sprinkled among the south so we can stop in on our future travels.

Finally got to try this place! Came on a Sunday and it was very busy but I somehow got a table! Tried the avocado Benedict and a flight of their mimosas. I believe my husband had some kind of chicken waffle and my daughter had the strawberry cream soda and a waffle. We left stuffed! The place is super cute and gets super busy!

Food was good but pricey. Service fir take out was confusing on where to place to go orders. They were all nice but maybe did not like I was in shorts. I do a lot of take out..most restaurants don't usually look at you the way they did went just getting take out It was nice place but it was lunch time so that was a bit ackward that they seemed judgemental so much so I may not return. Just did not make me feel welcome. Again foid was tasty but for the money we spent would like to feel welcomed not judged on fashion. The restaurant had lovely porch area to eat outside but still have access to restaurant facilities, bar and staff. Pretty decor.

By far one of the best breakfast meals in my whole life. The dish is called Old Skool and it's freaking delicious that haunts me. It's rosemary potatoes, grits, bacon and eggs in a red pepper sauce topped with cheese and a green salsa. Charlie had the Avo Wggs and they were good but Old Skool is where it's at. Our waiter was perfect, the atmosphere is relaxed, the food eclectic!

Tupelo Honey is one of those gems in downtown Asheville! Asheville is known as a "foodie" town, and Tupelo Honey adds to that reputation. Our party tried many different entrees from the menu, and we shared bites. All so very delicious! Service was impeccable but not in your face. Justin, our server, was one of the very best I've encountered. Wish more restaurants had a Justin working there. He made some "spot on" recommendations. He anticipated our needs, and he paid attention to every detail (including placing plastic utensils in the bag of my take out piece of chocolate cake). Tupelo Honey is well appointed, has lots of seating, and most of all, has that Asheville vibe. We will definitely be returning here on our next visit, and I'm hoping Justin is still there to take such great care of us!

What Happened? Your biscuits use to be so good. You changed the recipe. They were crumbling and hard two nights ago. Your shrimp and grits use to have the goat cheese and sirrachi drizzle; not any more. I did enjoy the spicy pork and the mac and cheese but you must have had to mainstream the recipes or something as you have expanded because you aren't the same. Listen, i can even forget the server who seemed "put out" that we were there, but you have missed the mark for why you even started in the first place. This is our second time to come since you changed. We assumed the first time was an off night with a last minute hire in the kitchen. This time we now know, that you are ok with this new direction. If you aren't then i would bring in a whole new quality control team because it might as well be a new restaurant with the old name.

This place was packed when my friend and me were in town. The hostesses and waitstaff were also super friendly and answered questions. The food was hearty. The decor was charming rustic and the biscuits were delicious. Recommend trying it out if you are in Asheville.

Worst servers. Tried this place again. Also got the meat takeout and it was soooo small compared to the photo. Avoid this restaurant.

The biscuit was amazing! Flakey yet moist, and super buttery. Easily the best I've ever had. My entree, however, was super disappointing. The Asheville hot chicken had no flavor whatsoever and was over-battered and way too dry. The accompanying Mac and cheese waffle sounded decadent, but the texture was just off - neither crispy nor cheesy. Service was... odd. No one seemed to be happy to work there, but did try to be fake polite, I'll give them that.

I like southern food, which is hard to find in my neck of the woods, so Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen & Bar has been on my bucket list for a while. Although it's now a successful chain with many locations beyond the southern part of the country, it's a popular restaurant in the south, including in Asheville, North Carolina. We came here for brunch without a reservation and there was about a 20-minute wait. If you don't want to wait, make a reservation, especially for a weekend because it's a poppin' place. Throughout our brunch, there was always a wait outside the restaurant. The restaurant is spacious, with many different seating areas, including a heated patio and outdoor area where it's dog-friendly. The food had a lot of southern classics, like chicken and waffles, biscuits, collard greens, you name it. Much of what is offered looked appealing. They also have a mimosa flight and a full bar. I ended up settling on the smothered chicken, which is a boneless, fried chicken with gravy and the two sides I chose with were the mac and cheese and collard greens. I also had a side biscuit, which came with butter and blackberry jam. The food was solid. The star of the show, the chicken, was the best part, which is how it should be. I liked how tender, moist and flavorful the chicken was. It was delicious even without the gravy. The collard greens were so salty that they were inedible. I wouldn't recommend. However, the mac and cheese was better. It's not the best mac and cheese because we all know that's Beecher's! But it was good. If I came back, I'd be open to trying different sides as they have a lot to choose from. Overall, if you haven't had Tupelo and like southern food, then it's a spot you'll have to try at least once. Unfortunately, there are none in Washington, but I'm glad to have finally checked it out while in Asheville.

We finally made it to Tupelo Honey for a Saturday brunch. Positives: Although it was busy, we were seated quickly. This restaurant is much bigger than it looks with a really trendy and nice interior! Great for groups. Negatives: We sat for about 20 minutes before someone came by to offer us water. It took another 10 or so before anyone came by to take our food/drinks order (although it was pretty busy, so I understand you have to be patient! Our waiter was also really nice.) I ordered the classic chicken and waffles and my husband ordered the chicken BLT. My chicken was sooo bland and a little soggy. I usually find benefit of the doubt in just about any place I visit, but I promise you! There are soooo much better authentic southern brunch spots in Asheville! Venture a little outside of downtown for better food at a better price.

Previously, this place had amazing food. As of May 2024... I'm so disappointed and feel like I wasted my money. I stopped in because I wanted good food and this felt like a sure bet. I order the fried chicken and waffles with siracha honey. Sounds yum, right? It used to be. This time, they gave me two overcooked chicken nuggets, each one atop a piece of a Belgian waffle. This used to be a substantial meal. Im petite with a bird of an appetite and even I felt like this could only qualify as an appetizer. They used to give you a large chicken breast. The price didn't decrease but the portion size certainly did. Two dry chicken nuggets, two pieces of a Belgian waffle, barely any honey siracha sauce, and a hefty bill. Sigh... two stars for potential since this place was once good.

Always a great time! Loved the Fried Chicken Benedict. Excellent service and restaurant decor.

Another wonderful visit to Tupelo Honey on our recent trip to Asheville! We came on a busy Saturday but were luckily sat right away which was a great start. We always start with the Biscuits for a cause and they didn't disappoint this time. Biscuits are huge and the jam and butter pair perfectly together on them as well. Tasty as a starter for breakfast, lunch, or dinner! For the main I got the Southern Chicken BLT for the first time and it was phenomenal. The chicken was perfectly crispy on the outside and still juicy on the inside. The rest of the toppings were perfect as well and didn't outweigh the other. Just a great overall sandwich that I would get again and again!

What a treat, Tupelo Honey is such a tasty experience. Finally we're able to attend while vacationing to Asheville. This place does fried chicken and waffles with the best of them. Getting a reservation online was an easy process. The table ordered the following dishes: Traditional breakfast plate Waffles and fried chicken Avocado toast Waiter was awesome and genuinely friendly. He did a great job with our table. The ambiance here is really great. Two different rooms which separate the feeling of being overcrowded. I honestly believe the food is priced $1-2 too high in each item. I was surprised how expensive a basic: two eggs, potatoes and pork sausage was. I live in an expensive city (Austin). Other than the price point things were great and happy to recommend anyone attend Tupelo Honey if you can get a reservation.

Came here for brunch and everything was so delicious. I recommend starting with their famous fried green tomatoes - the grits were amazing. I had the chicken and biscuits for my entree and the portion was huge. The chicken was perfectly crispy and the biscuit with gravy was a great complement to the chicken. I also had the mimosa flight to drink. Great ambiance, service, and food!

AN ASHEVILLE MUST!! My husband and I dressed nice for a day on the town. The vibe inside is laid back elegance, so whether you dress up or go casual you will fit in! The food was AMAZING! Quintessential southern with a nice twist. The plating itself was beautiful as well. Our server was polite and made sure we had everything we needed! I would absolutely come back! If you only go to Asheville once COME HERE!

We got into town a little bit later than we had anticipated and we're looking for somewhere nearby to grab dinner.Tupelo was highly recommended on yelp so we decided to check it out. We arrived on Wednesday night around 5:30 PM and found that the location was already pretty busy but we were able to be seated at the bar where there was absolutely no one at. We both ordered a brew to start, and then peruse through the menu. The menu does have a wide selection of items. While they are known for their fried chicken, the bartender did tell us one of her favorite things on the menu was the spicy pork and the shrimp and grits. We both opted to go for fried chicken! My husband got the honey dusted fried chicken and I got the sweet and spicy. This modern farmhouse feel provides a warm ambience for diners. The fried chicken was good although the honey dusted didn't taste much different than the regular fried chicken. The sweet and spicy definitely was more on the spicy side then it was the sweet side. If you like heat, this is definitely the chicken for you. The Sriracha that was used in the sauce was heavily prevalent throughout the entire meal

This place is great!!! For sure lives up to the hype!! They have a lot of cute outdoor seating and the service was good. The food was delish and I actually want to come back here for lunch. Thank you Tupelo!

We stopped here on our last day in Asheville. Made a reservation same day with no issue (a Sunday morning). I can't say the service was incredibly welcoming. The hostess seemed pretty bothered that we were there at all once we got the text that our table was ready. Waiter was a nice enough person. Service aside the food was pretty good. Biscuits tasted good and had a nice texture. The sriracha and honey fried chicken and waffles was a little disappointing. The chicken had so much sauce it was hard to taste the chicken and the waffle wasn't crispy at all. The cast iron pork made up for it though! That was delicious and surprisingly, so was the baked Mac and cheese. The Brussel sprouts were cooked well but needed more seasoning.

This was the best place we ate at while in Asheville, by far. I was so impressed that the other places we tried failed in comparison. The service was absolutely impeccable. In fact, I thought the guy was flirting with me HAHA. We were sat at the chef's view table which was pretty neat being apart of the action. The fried chicken was AMAZING- I got the spicy sauce on the side but it was so delicious that I wished I had gotten the chicken tossed in it. The baked Mac was bomb and the house made pickles were . I made my friend try the fried green tomatoes which were great too! I will 100% be back next time I'm in Asheville. I already miss this food!

I would give this place 3.5 if I could! The decor is very pretty and the service was good. We got the brussel sprouts and fried green tomatoes to start which were both amazing. For the entree, the cauliflower itself was really well prepared but the sides were a little meh. Some people who got chicken at our table said it was quite dry. I appreciate the vegetarian options and the cauliflower was good so I would come back!

I appreciate that the Asheville Tupelo honey has a menu that sticks close to home. The avocado toast is really delicious! And most of the food I have tried here are quite delicious as well. The location gets quite busy, especially during season but sitting at the bar is a pretty good experience.

Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen is a great restaurant in downtown Asheville, NC. Staff is friendly and professional while providing great recommendations. The biscuit was one of the best I've had in North Carolina so far. The fried chicken seasoning and batter was delicious but lots of bones to chew/dig your way through.

Worth the wait! Loved the pimento cheese appetizer. Cobb salad was amazing. He took me there to break up and the food was so good I didn't let him

I wandered in for lunch and was able to sit at the bar without a reservation. They have many taps providing draft beer and the bartender and I discussed my likes and she allowed me to sample a few before making a final selection. I enjoyed the chicken tortilla soup before the fried green tomatoes. I don't think you can go wrong with anything here. They do take reservations if you have a larger party or want to confirm indoor or outdoor seating. It is a must if you are in Asheville. Enjoy!

Absolutely delicious, definitely a must try in Asheville. The blueberry preserves with the biscuit were incredible, as was the flavor of the chicken and potatoes. The whole menu looked delicious, and I don't think you could go wrong with anything here. If I'm back in the area I'd for sure come again. Staff was great and seemed genuinely happy to have us there!!

This place had a distinct vibe and the food was fantastic and the drinks where exceptional. The service was very kind and welcoming and provided great recommendations for foods. Would def come back and try more of their menu!

Next time we're in Asheville, I really want to come here for brunch. We were here for dinner and it was definitely a good meal. The service was excellent and everyone there was great. They kept the refills coming and were very pleasant. The food itself had a bit less flavor than we expected, but it was still very delicious. The biscuits for a cause were top notch... which points to why I'd like to visit for brunch. The pimento cheese was good. We had the fried chicken, the chicken & waffles, the sriracha chicken & waffles, and the smash burger. Everyone like their food. Everyone said it needed more punch, including my brother-in-law and his sriracha chicken which didn't taste very sriracha to any of us. It was nice in the restaurant, although the restrooms were always crowded and had a line most of our visit.

Yummmm!!! Went to both location while in town visiting from WA state. Shrimp & Grits - get it! You won't regret it!

The fried green tomatoes and biscuits for a cause were a great way to start. The fried pickles were also good. I loved my shrimp and grits, possibly best I have ever had. Everyone else at my table enjoyed their meal too Highly recommend!

Good southern food. Not the best in town, but good and decently priced. The experience felt a little rushed, but the service was good. The restaurant is large, but it is usually full. Reserve a table ahead of time to avoid waiting.

Amazing food and service! Make a reservation because it gets packed. Had the smothered chicken and was delicious. Fried green tomatoes was also a great appetizer! Come hungry.

We went for dinner party of 4. I was just soso about this food. It's not really high quality...seemed more Cracker Barrel level dining in terms of food quality. It's a lot of fried chicken. Not a bad place, just not that great either.

This is my first time in Asheville, and my first time eating at Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen and Bar. Most of the reviews mentioned their fried chicken, so that's why I decided to come here. Being that I was dining alone, they recommended I sit at the bar. Kayla, the bartender, greeted me quickly. She was friendly and welcoming. I ordered the honey dusted dark meat fried chicken with a side of mac & cheese. The food was served surprisingly fast. I immediately tried the leg and one of the thighs. The exterior coating tasted good and quite unique. It had a slight sweet taste to it. The chicken leg was unfortunately over cooked. The skin was tough, hard, and too crunchy. The thigh, on the other hand, was cooked perfectly. It was hot and juicy inside and crunchy on the outside. The mac & cheese was served as a large scoop on the plate. It looked interesting, but it tasted dry and not very cheesy. I wouldn't order the mac & cheese as a side again. The interior of the restaurant had a unique, somewhat artistic look to it. There were a couple of walls covered with tiles that resembled the honeycomb structure of a beehive. The one thing that struck me as odd was that my server, who was also the bartender, was the only person who smiled at me the entire night. I walked past multiple servers as well as a few hostesses. Those who made eye contact with me gave me a blank stare without a simple smile. As I was leaving the restaurant, nobody thanked me or invited me to return. Maybe local people are treated better, but as my one, and only experience at this restaurant, I was not left with a positive impression. Based upon the drumstick being over cooked, the mac & cheese being too dry, and the majority of the staff being generally unfriendly, I most likely would not return or recommend the place to others. Hopefully you'll have a better experience than I did. Cheers

The service was great. We sat outside on the porch, with great weather and a nice view of downtown. The mountain harvest bowl was delicious, and the fries perfectly crispy. They know what they're doing in the kitchen for sure. Our waiter Edward was very courteous and professionally personable. Lovely experience overall. I highly recommend for a classy night out in Asheville.

Staff were very polite and friendly! Kids liked the waffle and complementary biscuits! The barbecue plate was just OK, not sure maybe needed something citrusy to balance it!? The fries and kids chicken fingers were also OK but maybe overcooked and too dry. I liked the fresh salad!

Food was pretty good. The eggs was omitted from the salad, not by request. They probably were out of eggs or they were too expensive to add to the grocery list, lolololol! Very busy at the time that we were here but server was very attentive, friendly, and got our order correct. Parking is a doozie so out on your walking shoes. 4 stars only because of the missing egg lol!
