“ My husband and I decided to check out Milk and Honey MCDONOUGH on friday after shopping. And I'm glad we did. The food is amazing I ordered the crab cakes, which came out extra crispy and hot. I ordered the Smooth Criminal. And he had the Encore fried and ordered more crab cakes for both of or dishes. The salmon taste very fresh, and it was fried crispy and seasoned perfect. We were pleased. We will definitely return.. ”
“ Nice brunch spot. Very friendly and attentive staff. Good music. Got the drizzled biscuit appetizer...definitely worth it! Ordered the OG and the 215? (Fried chicken) All good although I would have liked a little more spice on the chicken. Overall good experience. Would have preferred not paying for each water (@2.50 a bottle) I will be back to try some other things. Hope they stick around. ”
“ It's a TRAVESTY that this place is anything lower than 5 stars! Everyone from the food, service, and pricing is on par if not better than ANY high end spot in Georgia! So accommodating, and fast to get the food in! We'll definitely be coming here whenever I'm in McDonough! ”
