I'm so disappointed to leave this review. I made reservations for brunch at 12. We showed up and somehow there was a miscommunication/website error and my reservation wasn't found. Instead of saying it's fine, let see when/if we can accommodate you, I was made to feel like I needed to prove I made the reservation and it seemed like they weren't even interested in making it right. I was asked to show my email, showed proof that I called the restaurant before I showed up and it turned into a big, embarrassing ordeal. I was meeting a party of 4 who traveled from out of town to eat. I was really excited for them to experience Tupelo honey. We ended up going bru burger where we actually felt welcomed.

This was a very cool spot to try in Indianapolis! There was no waiting! Skye took great care of our party of five along with the surrounding diners.This location has indoor and outdoor seating options plus a bar. The decorations are very nice and the 'Kiss My Grits' wall was a great photo op for my group.We tried several different dishes and beverages. I chose the Salmon Gritcake and the Fried Green Tomatoes which were amazing! I would love to try more items on their menu when I return to the area. The beverage glasses had different images and quotes on them that gave us a few chuckles. lol There is street parking and also a parking garage behind the restaurant. They are located near Eli Lilly headquarters not far from downtown.

Lovely addition to the area. Had a chance to check out Tupelo on one of my date nights. My husband loved their braised short rib and I enjoyed their shrimp and grits. Cute decor. Photo-ops everywhere. Service was on point! Good job, Tupelo. We'll be back.

We loved all the decorations! And the staff took care of us very nicely. It was our first time there and honestly I would give this place a 7/10. We both enjoyed our meal enough to be satisfied but wasn't blown away by it. The crust wasn't super crispy or crunchy and the chickens texture was a bit off. It's still a place everyone should check out. We saw other menu items we would like to return and try!

I visited during happy hour on a Tuesday and I was the only patron. The bartender was very friendly and greeted me immediately. She let me know it was happy hour and presented me with 3 menus. I started with a peach & pineapple porch sipper. Nothing about it taste like either of those flavors and the sparkling water/seltzer tasted flat. The blackened mahi mahi is on the happy hour menu and served with one side. I got the bacon braised collard greens and added a side of crispy parm potatoes. Everything was delicious. The mahi mahi was cooked perfectly for me. A little past medium and full of flavor. The music playing is an upbeat mix played at a good volume not to be overbearing.

Tupelo was a great place for brunch after an overnight date! We stayed at The Alexander, which is right next to Tupelo Honey, so it was an easy walk! Brunch is served on Saturday and Sundays. We shared the sweet and spicy sriracha chicken and waffles and also the morning mountain bowl. Both were awesome! The "cherry-on-top" to the meal was their delicious selection of mimosas! Our server was fantastic and great at giving recommendations. We are planning to return SOON: I have my eye on the apple cider donut mimosa and the banana pudding creme brulee chicken & waffles (WHAT)!!

Tupelo is a wonderful Southern-inspired spot for brunch, lunch, happy hour (specials!) and dinner. While the parking can be tricky as there is no dedicated lot--the food is consistently tasty, made-to-order and flavorful. I've been here many times and even hosted my sweet pup, Frankie, and her puppy-pals here earlier this year for her birthday. Their patio is dog-friendly and have an adorable dog menu with bacon, peanut butter, and chicken. All pip meals are served on frisbees that you get to take with you! Pro-tip: Ask the staff nicely to rinse or wipe these off and also get a separate bag to snag em to go! I've had mocktails, cocktails, and sweet tea many times -- all sweet and delicious! I recently had the sparkling blueberry lavender water and wasn't a fan. My most ordered dishes are the Mahi (yum!) and the Power Bowl. The Mahi comes with at least one side (happy hour & lunch) and two for the dinner menu. The Power Bowl doesn't come with sides, but is hearty and great to take home for later. The menu has a little something for everyone AND you can't leave without the banana pudding (delish!) Overall, the ambiance, environment, and atmosphere are warm, inviting, and casual. The staff are always helpful and willing to help or correct any issues. Perfect for a lunch meeting, date night, or even casual birthday dinner.

We visited on Indy Swiftie weekend. Despite the mediocre welcome by the host desk, our waitress was friendly and attentive. We were excited to see two TS inspired drinks that came with bracelets! The food and drinks were fabulous (except for the mixed green salad that tasted fishy?!)! The atmosphere was electric and Tay-Tay's music playing added to the fun! Perk: Join their club and you get a free glass (although I didn't get mine because the email came too late). Tip: Parking is challenging but look for some by the nearby park.

Wow this place is super underwhelming especially for Valentines Day. Glad we only came for lunch. Tried the Biscuits for a cause, a noble idea. Terrible execution, worst ive ever had anywhere. Couldnt eat it at all. Pumpkin bisque- Um it was pumpkiny but not something id ever order again. Fried Chicken- solid, nothing worth coming back for. Chicken and Waffles, again solid nothing that great. I did like the waffle with the banana creme though.Server- Choose not to ask about the meal or anything else for that matter. Im sure she already knew that everything being served isnt that great. For the price and reviews being so great I expected much more than what we got. What a waste. And I love Southern Food.
