Our waiter Dane was excellent and personable. This is the first time we’d seen him at this location. He made it a great experience.

Not sure why they don’t have more of a lunch rush V Cap City Diner down the street. Less lunch size choices perhaps but quieter, good food, very good service. Think they just need to publicize lunch!

We love Tupelo Honey every time we go. Last night's service was on point as always. The shrimp and grits is my go-to order.
