    Holy Moly! I am so glad we picked this place for dinner! Food- amazing. Cocktails- delicious. If you’re into mezcal and spice, then get the “Hey Hot Stuff”. Yum is an understatement. We had fried pickles, sweet n spicy fried chicken, the southern fried chicken BLT, Brussels sprouts and fries. The banana pudding and Mississippi mud pie were delicate and sweet. If I’m ever anywhere there is a Tupelo Honey, I’m definitely making a visit.

    Upon arrival last evening, one of my guests was already waiting for me. The front hostess had already welcome to them, and was very cordial to me when I arrived as well while walking in, we noticed there was a cool, airstream trailer parked outside. We asked if it was potentially available. The staff said yes we’ll go set it up for you right away. Then they assured us to our seats and we had a wonderful private dinner and a very cool vintage air streamer. What a wonderful experience and incredible staff and exciting menu. Highly recommend!

    Went on a Friday night before the piano bar next door so it was early - 6pm - and pretty empty. But we got attentive, friendly service and the food was really good. We both opted for seasonal dishes. My husband got grilled chicken with a harvest bowl that was peppery and full of vegetables and quinoa. I got a butternut squash and pumpkin quinoa dish with grilled salmon. We were too full for dessert but they sounded good. By the time we left around 7:30 there were more tables filled with diners.
