“This was a fabulous find. Being the Southern inspired menu, we opted for the fried green tomato appetizer, panko breaded deviled eggs were an unexpected and unusual offering that was phenomenally delicious. We also enjoyed their cajun pasta to round out the meal. We had courteous service from staff that were friendly, responsive and informative and efficient and fun. Very reasonable priced for quality and quantity of food. Highly recommend.“

“Went on a Sunday for brunch. The food was delicious! I tried two different types of deviled eggs. The mimosas were perfect! The staff and chef were very friendly. Besides my friend and I there were only 2 other customers. Not sure if it was just a slow Sunday but hopefully the business picks up, definitely will go back“

“Milk & Honey really impressed me today!
From the front staff to the cook, everyone was pleasant and welcoming. You can tell they genuinely love what they do—nothing but smiles all around.

I placed my order online, and unfortunately one item didn’t show up on their end. Even so, they took the time to try figure out the confusion and made sure I received my missing item without any issues.

Customer service like this is hard to find these days. Location was clean and the ambience was everything.
Everyone was kind, patient, and professional.
I’ll definitely be back!

Thank you,
From CT“

I highly recommend their turkey, yams, mac & cheese, green beans, and mashed potatoes while these are our favorite everything was well seasoned, including the cornbread, which is to die for. The staff is incredibly kind and I knew I was taken care of here at this establishment. Even though parking was slightly challenging, I most definitely will be back.“

Each day the menu changes, so you could have a favorite every day of the week. And the portions! You can make SEVERAL meals out of one dinner. Is it cheap? NOPE! But something that's good for your body AND soul shouldn't be.“

“Mid-Atlantic Seafood has become my absolute favorite spot whenever I’m craving delicious, mouthwatering seafood. The moment you walk in, you already know you're about to be treated right. The food is always cooked to perfection — tender, flavorful, and just the right balance of crunch and softness. One the pricey side but the portion sizes are definitely worth it.

My personal favorites are the stuffed tilapia, stuffed shrimp, and the catfish — each bite feels like comfort and quality wrapped into one. The sides are just as amazing: the teriyaki green beans and stir-fried squash are the kind of sides that make you look forward to the next visit before you’ve even finished your plate.

The drinks are mixed just right — flavorful with the perfect amount of strength — and don’t get me started on the desserts. Their cakes and pies are heavenly, perfectly sweet and full of flavor without being overwhelming.

Everything here feels homemade with care, and you can taste the quality in every single dish. If you’re looking for consistently great seafood with satisfying portions and memorable flavor, look no further — Mid-Atlantic Seafood is the place to be!“

“Went by there today (3/31/25) at 7 am and they were closed.
Mr Young and his wonderful wife are in South Korea and the business has been sold (handed off) to the same owners are the tobacco shop next store. The same workers still work at Youngs (as of 2 weeks ago when I was last in there); but the hours of operation may need to be updated.“
