**A Culinary Delight with a Touch of Enchantment**
From the moment I stepped through the doors of this charming restaurant, I was enveloped in an enchanting atmosphere that promised a culinary adventure. The warm glow of the lights, the gentle murmur of conversations, and the tantalizing aromas wafting from the kitchen created a symphony of senses that set the stage for an unforgettable dining experience.
While I didn't have a furry companion in tow, I noticed a designated outdoor area for dogs. While the intention was commendable, I couldn't help but notice the presence of spiders, which slightly detracted from the charm of the space. However, once I stepped inside, any lingering concerns were quickly forgotten.
The indoor ambiance was nothing short of captivating. The décor was tastefully curated, creating a blend of rustic elegance and modern comfort. The soft chatter of fellow diners mingled with the gentle clinking of silverware against plates, forming a harmonious soundtrack that complemented the delectable feast that lay ahead.
My culinary journey began with the French toast, a true masterpiece that danced across my taste buds. The perfectly toasted bread was generously coated with a sweet, custardy batter that was infused with hints of cinnamon and nutmeg. Each bite was a symphony of flavors, leaving me craving more.
The service was equally exceptional. Katelyn, the morning server, exuded an aura of patience and kindness that instantly put me at ease. Her attentiveness and genuine warmth made me feel like a valued guest, not just another customer. Destiny, the evening server, was equally impressive. Despite being relatively new, she handled every request with grace and professionalism, ensuring that my dining experience was nothing short of perfect.
And let me not forget the drinks. The evening cocktails were an absolute delight. Just one sip of their signature margaritas was enough to transport me to a state of pure bliss. The expertly crafted concoction was a symphony of flavors, perfectly balanced and refreshingly invigorating. It was the perfect way to set the mood for the evening's culinary adventure.
While some dishes on the menu might not appeal to every palate, the items that aligned with my preferences were sure to delight. The freshness of the ingredients, the skillful preparation, and the creative combinations of flavors were evident in every bite.
Overall, this restaurant offered a delightful dining experience that exceeded my expectations. The enchanting atmosphere, the delectable cuisine, the exceptional service, and the amazing evening drinks created a memorable culinary adventure that I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone seeking a taste of culinary excellence. Thank you for the warm hospitality and the opportunity to savor these culinary delights!

My first visit to Jobos — Downtown Tupelo was with my sister. We sat on the patio and shared an appetizer — sofrito salsa & benton's bacon guac. I could have eaten just that and been fine. We ordered the grilled chicken sandwich and a burger to share with parm fries for a side (not to forget the quick pickles). My next visit was with my family and we dined inside. The charm of the place is impeccable. We enjoyed Sunday Bruch that featured items such as French toast, bacon, aji potatoes. The aji was a delicious green sauce. The short rib hamburger steak stack was a hit, too.

While in the area, I met up with some coworkers for supper. I was a little disappointed that there wasn't a steak on the menu or at least one pleasing to my taste like a big ribeye or strip. I got the shrimp and grits and some bao buns. I was pleased with the presentation and taste of what I got.

AWESOME! Everything is amazing. The atmosphere, food, and service are all top notch. You can have a more laid back night and have drinks and play shuffle board and watch a game on the huge tv. Or you can sit at the bar or get a table and enjoy a full meal with friends/family. Also, brunch was amazing! Everything down to the utensils, plates, and napkins are amazing. You can tell this restaurant was birthed from someone who cared about every single detail. We will be back!!

Oven-Baked Chorizo Fundido
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.

Jobos Butter Burger
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.

Food was amazing. The menu is unique and so delicious.
Our waitress was training another employee. The girl training was very sweet and the one doing the training didn't seem to enjoy her job.

Great restaurant located in the Tupelo Hotel. Food was very good. Drinks were reasonably priced and good. Service was excellent. Great place to wind down after a long day of doing the tourist thing.
