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
