    gloster street has the majority of restaurants in Tupelo.  I like Vanelli's for Italian -Greek and Harvey's for American. both are south of rt 78.

      Unfortunately, the national chains have moved into Tupelo in a big way and killed a lot of the independent restaurants.  Fairpark Grill and Harvey's aren't exactly Roadfood places but are very good.
       
      For BBQ, I would recommend Bishop's in Saltillo (just off US45 north of Tupelo).

      Pulled pork is excellent.  Fried green tomatoes and peppery slaw are very good too.
       
      I know you said evening, but here are my favorite lunch-only places as well.
      The Bakery (excellent chicken casserole)

      Miss Ruth's (on Main St in Verona, just off US45 south of Tupelo).

      Urbanspoon shows Shannon location but I've only been to Verona location.

        Fair Park Grill is one of the best.  You can watch the game at the bar.  Romie's has outstanding comfort food. Whitesides has good country buffet.  Harvey's is one of the best.
