The atmosphere is nice. Very trendy decor. Our server was pleasant. And that's where it ends. I witnessed a multitude of health code violations. I couldn't tell if the people present worked there or were guests because they were all eating and drinking in the dining area. Even the Manager was eating plates of food in the dining area in the corner of the bar where every server had their drinks and food. The open kitchen is ideal but if the cooks are also going to eat on the cook line and not wear hair nets, then what's the point? At one point, an employee was just hanging out on the cook line leaning over it...long hair and all, jamming out with his ear pods. The servers ate their own food in the presence of guests, then opened the swing doors with their bare hands, touched everything, and then placed bare straws in the drinks that they brought to the table. If you can get past the lack of personal hygiene and poor food safety efforts, then your food is mediocre and made you wonder what the actual theme of the menu is. Pick a theme and stick with it. It's all over the place. Over salted and way too heavy with the pepper. I would expect more from what is considered a upscale restaurant for the price. Y'all can do better! Go across the street to the Grill or Nautical Whimsy. Take notes on how's it done correctly.

As an (hotel) employee, I’m not even kidding; the food is amazing, the drinks are delicious ?!! I got the red snapper, oh boy, it was to die for. First time eating here and I’m impressed. I see why it’s flooded on the weekends. You’ll definitely get your moneys worth!

Nice atmosphere, pleasant staff, and good food. Only reason I gave a 4 instead of a 5 was the staff not being super open with how the food was cooked. I asked for my steak Medium Rareand it did not come out that way because they cook it the same way everytime apparently.

Dog friendly! We were passing through Tupelo and wanted to meet family for dinner. Called to ask if we could bring dogs on the patio and they told us we could eat inside with them. They were so kind, brought the dogs water and treats and multiple staff members stopped by just to say hey to them. Will definitely be back.

I would give the atmosphere and hotel 5 stars, but Jobos 3 stars. My chef salad with the salmon was so salty I could only eat half of it to my disappointment and my husband's shrimp ???? sandwich was the same. I told our waiter and the manager of the restaurant. Their reply was, "yeah, everything here is salty." I could understand if I were from California or New York and were complaining about the amount of salt, but I am from the south and when something tastes salty to me you had better believe it is salty. I was raised on salt and sugar for pity sakes!

Went for brunch twice. Best French toast and poutine in town. Bartenders very nice

Wonderful atmosphere....Great service...Our food was Good...Will be back soon

Very good food and service! Nice atmosphere!

Bad food...

Very nice place with excellent service. Love the decors and ambiance. We enjoyed the nice weather on their balcony facing the lively downtown part of Main Street. Maggie was our server and she was AMAZING and her food recommendations did highly impress us. I will be back and this gives me a great place to invite family and friends when they come to town. If you want to impress someone definitely bring them here! You will not regret it. Tupelo really needed something outside the box such as this one.
