I got the chicken and waffles and it was fantastic! I didn't know how to feel about the gravy served on the side but I honestly felt it was perfect.

When you think about chicken and waffles you think about the balance between salty and sweet. The chicken is the savory and salty side and the waffles and syrup is, in most cases, the sweet part of it. I didn't think about how the gravy would play into that equation but it turns out it's perfect.

It's perfect to contrast a bite of emphasized savory/salty when you have waffles with gravy and chicken. Then you backtrack and get kicked over to the sweet side with that same bite, save the gravy, plus syrup. It's the perfect back and forth palette refresher.

Definitely try it!

What a pleasant surprise. We were bummed when Tupelo left Santa Barbara and then we found them blocks from son's new home. Expensive for new grads but a nice place to treat for proud parents. Eclectic and tasty food served on a nice patio by a friendly staff.

Grits, muffins, crab claw bloody Mary, egg dishes were all terrific.

Overall liked the ambiance and menu. Sat in the patio area.

The only down mark was I had ordered a cheeseburger and fries because I believe all restaurants can be graded on how they do their burger. I had asked for medium rare Plus and I received a well done Burger with french fries that were not cooked fully.

I asked the waitstaff if they thought my burger was cooked to my request and she agreed that it was badly overcooked. She offered to have it cooked again but I was short on time.

Now to the fries, they are hand cut, nice. But they were not cooked fully, they came out white and bendable kinda soggy. I asked if this is how they do their fries and she for the most part yes. I tried to add salt but the salt shakers are very miserly with this salt..it took 3 minutes to get it onto my fries.

I won't be ordering another cheeseburger but there are some entries in the menu that are intriguing so l will be back for those...
