I had previously been to KitchenCray and Zell’s Kitchen kept popping up on my Instagram feed so I decided to try it. The food was delicious and Darrin was very attentive and kind. I guess I expected some enhanced decor but there was none.

This was my first time at milk and Honey. They honored my reservation time and seated me quickly. The staff was very responsive to making sure that we had a good meal and that everything was excellent. My food was delicious, I had the biscuit with spicy fried chicken and cheesy eggs. I brought home enough to eat it again for breakfast tomorrow. I will definitely be coming back and trying one of their other items. My friend, had the shrimp, po boy and was equally pleased with the taste of his food

Rachel took wonderful care of us. The food was delicious and served very promptly. There was a mix up with our Open Table reservation but manager Robert promptly texted me the morning of to accommodate us at an earlier seating because of the holiday. Rachel was very hospitable and made sure we had everything we needed. From the cocktails, to the appetizer, to the entrees and desserts we took to go, an outstanding meal. It was the perfect Christmas Eve dinner for our little family. A well-deserved reputation as an excellent establishment.
