Review summary
Updated on Sep 2026- Flavor: The sweet-and-spicy hot honey paired with creamy ricotta wins most over, though some found the combination too mild or one-note without extra seasoning.
- Ease of prep: Toast, spread, drizzle — it really is that simple, and many customers had it ready in minutes as a snack or appetizer.
- Suggestions: Season the ricotta generously with salt and pepper, and consider adding lemon zest, fresh herbs, or a drizzle of balsamic glaze to boost depth. A few reviewers loved topping theirs with apple or pear slices for a fresh, crunchy contrast 🍎.
- Leftovers: Assemble just before serving — several customers noted the crostini don't keep well once topped, as the bread softens quickly.
- Toasting: Watch the oven closely; multiple reviewers burned their bread at 425°F, and suggest checking at 4–5 minutes rather than the full 5–10.
Reviews from our home cooks
Absolute heaven. The ricotta was creamy and paired so well with the very crisp toast. The hot honey was DELICIOUS. 100/10 I will get this every week it's offered!
The hot honey, spicy on its own, has a beautiful mild taste on top of the ricotta cheese and honey. We served it as a side to one of the pork chop meals and it was delicious.
Simple and rich. The combo of a soft ricotta with the sweetness and bite of hot honey was a good balance
Delicious and easy. Love the ricotta and hot honey combo
The hot honey with creamy ricotta works even for someone like me who can't handle spice!
Definitely creamy and sweet. Not a fan of ricotta cheese but decided to give these a try and they were fantastic.
First time I have mixed ricotta with hot honey. We will definitely do this again.
The hot honey was surprisingly mild with the ricotta, just right!
The hot honey ricotta was fantastic, but the bread was over-processed and flavorless. Would've been great on a better piece of bread
Very crispy and tasty. The ricotta did cool the spice of the honey more than I would have liked.
