One of my favorite places in Columbus!! They have the best Southern food and the friendliest staff. The shrimp and grits were tasty but their biscuits are claim to fame, as is the Mississippi mud pie and banana pudding. Happy hour deals are a real bargain.

This place was WONDERFUL! The atmosphere was good and the restaurant was nice and neat from its layout to its decor. All staff was friendly and quick to help out. Our server, Teddy, was so kind and attentive! We avoid eating out because we've found it hard to justify prices with the quality of the food and the overall service but we could rave endlessly about Tupelo Columbus! Not only did our drinks and food come out so quick and hot, the taste and quality was top notch. 10/10 recommend the mimosas, the sweet and spicy chicken, pimento cheese dip, and even the desserts! Literally cannot say one bad thing about our experience. We don't come into Columbus often but already know when we do, we're going back to Tupelo's!

This place gets ! The mimosa flight was everything! I couldn’t pick a favorite. Do not leave without getting the chicken and waffles. Those fried green tomatoes are fire! The spinach omelette is delicious. Our waitress was patient and gave great suggestions. I love the ambience and will definitely be going back.

Awesome experience. Clean and refreshing environment. Staff was very polite. Prices and portions are reasonable. #GreenFriedTomatoes on the Avocado sandwich with the honey sriracha was an insane build! Will be back soon!

Came for brunch on a Sunday, was pretty busy by the time we left. There is free street parking in front (except 4-6pm weekdays). Decorated super cute, lighting, glassware, greenery and cute patio for when the warmer weather hits. Food was really good, specifically the chicken and waffle. Waffle was fluffy, chicken was crunchy and not too heavy on the breading. My husband enjoyed the Mac and cheese and I really liked the rosemary potatoes, very crunchy. Would definitely come back and recommend.

I wrote a previous review about my first experience and an incident that happened during my visit, however I must salute Caroline Skinner, she reached out and really made an effort to rectify my experience. I decided to give the place another try and revisited with my dad for Father’s Day, the regional VP and our waiter took great care of us! Thanks for everything, that’s what good business is like :)

I am in Columbus for work and searched for different places to eat that are different than what I have back home. I found this restaurant and it is fantastic!!! The first night I got the crispy Brussels sprouts as an appetizer and the meatloaf as my entree. Both were outstanding. I decided to go back again to try other options and I’m glad I did. The second night I got the smothered chicken with crispy potatoes and red beans and rice with the pecan pie (mini portion) as dessert. The meatloaf is delicious but the smothered chicken is even better, absolutely delicious!!!! If I was here longer I’d return yet again and try the pork shoulder but alas my trip is over. Give this place a try, you won’t be disappointed!!

Wow!! what a special treat, with great prices. We were there on Sat and reserved a table thru open table. We had a chicken sandwich, surf & turf, and the signature chicken. I got a side of the Brussels sprouts with the signature chicken and they were SO good. The steak was a little over cooked, but the chicken sandwich was SPOT on. We also had amazing service from Connor.
