“Love chicken salad, this to me tastes like the stuff my mom and gram made. Came with fresh fruit and a cookie for dessert. Really enjoyable and will stop again when working in the area.“

“My cousins and I wanted a different experience on dining and getting together for our Divas Day Out! The suggestion came up to go to Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen & Bar and what a wonderful suggestion it was! The food, atmosphere and dining experience was amazing. We will be visiting Tupelo’s again very soon.“

“We've been coming here for a few years and it never disappoints. The staff is always attentive and great service. They have a variety of options and we haven't tried anything we didn't like.

“First time eating here and I was blown away.
The hush puppies, tenders, sandwiches, hand pies and Banana pudding are amazing. My favorite fried chicken currently.
Come here and give it a try! I got the original sandwich southern(baked)“

“Mel is absolutely the best! He and Daniel made our family Thanksgiving gathering at his restaurant feel like home. Our parents would love knowing that all of their kids and grandkids were gathered around the table together enjoying food that was just as delicious as Mom would have made in her own kitchen. We thank you, Mel, our “brother from another mother,” for the amazing food and even more amazing company. We are so grateful that you were there to join us! Happiest of Thanksgivings to you and yours.“

“Great place for Lunch & Dinner.I love their Wings & Fried Chicken. Biscuits are simply mind blowing. I am glad that they are following CDC Guidelines for Covid-19 very strictly.Employees are told to track their body temperature & maintain personal hygiene throughout the shift. I will recommend this place to friends.“

“I love this place. they have a couple here in Texas and 1 in Nevada“

“Today we had Sunday lunch at Cheddars with my daughter and son-in-law. The food was just so, so. However, our waitress, Lauren, was so sweet, smiled with her eyes. And very informative when we asked questions. Cheddar's needs to keep a personable waitress such as Lauren.“

“Solid above average chicken tender joint. Very similar to Canes or Layne's, but better. The food is well seasoned and has a plethora of more sauces than other similar establishments. Every time I go there the service is great and I get my food quickly. The rewards app is BS but aside from that I have no complaints. It isn't the best chicken in the world but for fast food its pretty darn good.“

“Food was good. The cucumber jalapeño lemonade was a TRIP! 🙃“

“I love this place - the dance floor is the biggest I have ever seen (I've danced in different locations all the way around Houston/ Spring/ Huntsville) and it is perfectly round which is unique. The workshops held here are incredibly thought out and help the other dancers acclimate to the space. Biggest downfall is during the Summer months - the AC should be turned on because I marinate. Also - the crowd gets larger as the night gets later which is common but it makes it hard to move along the dance floor without traffic. The leads that come out are very strong - if I lived locally this would be my go to. 🥰“
