“ My wife I came into the restaurant for lunch, it was very clean and comfortable the staff were nice, and the food was very tasty and generous servings. I had the smashburger and my wife had the salad with a espresso martini. We loved the restaurant and wouldn't mine coming back again. ”
“ Honeywood is hands down my favorite among Chef Ouita Michel’s incredible lineup of local restaurants. It’s not uncommon for me to dine there two days in a row—yes, it’s that good! The menu is both extensive and creative, offering something for everyone, and one thing’s for sure: you’ll never leave hungry. The portions are generous and always satisfying. When the weather cooperates, their patio is one of the best in Lexington. It’s partially enclosed, offering a bit of privacy, and the artificial turf gives it a cozy, relaxed vibe—perfect if you’re bringing your dog along. It was one of my late pup’s favorite spots to lounge while I enjoyed a great meal. ”
“ Great affordable food. We had the Cobb salad, shrimp & grits & greens with a side of catfish, mac & cheese & braised beef with grits. DVC Finds ”
“ Everything was great! The sweet potato beignets were the bomb!! The Korean fried chicken the Mrs had was delicious, so tender and spicy!! The Mrs also enjoyed the brussel sprouts. While I had a burger and fries that was just perfect!! The Mrs also tried a gimlet which she enjoy!! So next time you're at the Summit and wondering where to eat this is the spot!! ”
“ This is a really great spot for elevated southern food! We went for a late lunch, so the restaurant was running pretty slow, but the food was worth the wait! Everything I tried was delicious, particularly the sweet potato beignets! I also really enjoyed the rabbit and dumplings, which was the special of the day. ”
“ Upon viewing the menu, it was interesting to see that a starter at a place to eat could be pork rinds. But these were pretty tasty! Paired with that honey, it was quite a nice combo. I also had the chicken sandwich, it was really good and juicy, enjoyable down to the last bite :) Several weeks prior, I'd tried their Eggs Benedict (not shown here) and wow... quite a cornucopia of flavor, I will say! Some of the best hollandaise sauce I'd ever tasted! The service was good too, i just lost the receipt and can't remember the name :(. But I'd say, check this place out! ”
“ My favorite item was probably the deviled eggs, but I also really loved the tomato sandwich! Delicious! I was somewhat disappointed with the snack platter; it wasn't worth it for me. Glad I visited! ”
“ These guys are in a league of their own! Their service is great, the food is amazing, and the staff is very attentive. Photo is a picture of their hardwood floor being refinished. If you need a place to take that special loved one this is it. ”
