Editorial Review for Honey – by Katie Heffernan
In Short
Spots without scenes are few and far between in this neighborhood, but the low-key, no-crowd vibe at this lounge fills the void. The sunken, gold-dipped room, with amber candlelight and electronica in the background, is a no-hassle place to get amped for nearby dancing or to unwind afterward. Thankfully, the gourmet bar menu (think cheese fondue fries and honey-glazed chicken sliders) doesn't overdo the sweet namesake ingredient, and neither does the list of signature martinis.

I had been passing Honey by for a few weeks now. They have about 3 different types of cheese fondues and 3 different type of dessert fondues. Several bad things: 1) It was empty inside 2) It was HOT inside. No one bothered to put the A/C on and it's like an oven in there. Why would anyone go to a bar that is hotter inside than outside? 3) The fondue was repulsive... the flavor actually made me a little sick eating it. To say the least my friend and I ate outside because it was too hot inside. We shared the Swiss Fondue for 1-3 people which was $25. They were not very knowledgeable about their food. When I asked what kind of wine they used in the fondue the waitress told me "We don't put wine in the fondue." Oh really? Then why does the menu have white wine as an ingredient in the Swiss Fondue? I will NOT be returning to Honey. Also the bartender was more interested in the game on TV than doing his job.... which couldn't have been that hard considering there was NO ONE IN THE PLACE.
Pros: Nice looking restaurant
Cons: No A/C, unknowledgeable waitstaff, BAD food

Me and my friends were just walking around and looking for a place to eat. I actually came across this restaurant because my feet were tired and I really had to sit down so we came into Honey. The tex-mex (??) Cheese fondue was excellent especially the shrimp that came with it. Their champagne dessert fondue wasn't too great and was very sweet but, hey, it's a dessert. I wasn't too satisfied that they didn't have many specialty drinks to choose from but, our waitress, megan, was very sweet and definetly made our night. Her recommendations were very trustworthy and I am definetly coming back, hoping to bring more friends.
Pros: very nice place to lounge and atmosphere is comfortable
Cons: small seats and table
