“Looking for a charming place to brunch or just grab a snack and some coffee in Abita? This family owned cafe is nestled in a beautiful and historic area and building, and you just cant beat the laid back ambience, the level of service and quality of food.“

“I’ve been hearing about this eatery for years from family. Today I happened to be in the area and was taken to Mattina Bella, translation, beautiful morning. The restaurant seats around 85 people in a cozy but spacious and comfortable setting. It’s a classy environment. We were greeted immediately and pleasantly and seated quickly. However I can imagine an opportunity for a conversation during a wait on the weekend.The charming waitress got our drink order but was watchful and could read when we were ready to order. She was able to answer any questions we had and her descriptions were articulate and accurate.The wait time gave us sufficient time to have a leisurely chat and not feel rushed.The Blue Crab Eggs Benedict was absolutely the best I’ve ever had. I’ve worked in seventeen countries and never had a hollandaise sauce as light and heavenly creamy as this. The chunks of jumbo lump crab were very fresh and were well paired with the mushrooms and the eggs were perfectly prepared.They have a kids menu, allow service dogs, don’t allow smoking, and don’t take reservations.The staff was a clear compliment to the food. This was more than a meal, it was a delightful experience. I will return every opportunity I get but fear those opportunities will never be enough!Thanks to my son for taking me here.“

“Waffle House rocks. Fast service. Easy to get a table for four. The breakfast sandwich was cooked perfectly. Staff at this location were super friendly. We were a fish out of water looking crew (not locals) and we were welcomed with open arms. 10/10 would “

“The food was good. They are always out of the country gravy, now I just stopped asking for it. The sever wasn’t the greatest. But it’s Waffle House. I don’t come here thinking it’s going to be amazing. Half the fun is seeing what will happen with the service when we go.“

“Finding a place for breakfast on Christmas morning was a challenge, but thankfully Waffle House was there to save the day. As the only place open, they offered a warm and welcoming place. I ordered the fiesta omelette to go, and it was awesome. What truly stood out was the dedication of the staff. Working on a holiday isn't easy, but they did so with smiles and efficiency. A big thank you to the Waffle House team for making our Christmas morning breakfast a memorable one.“

“Super impressed I am vegan and gluten-free and they helped me get food and I’ve been traveling all night and I’m starving. They made me hashbrowns with margarine instead of the shortening and then I had mushrooms, onion and tomato added into them and I just added some salt and pepper and Walla Delicious very nice people working there“

“Daisy Dukes is an awesome chain restaurant, though I believe each is individually owned and operated as menus varry. This one was excellent, as expected. The waitress Kylee was the nicest and most attentive waitress I have come across in a long while. Definitely a keeper! I had the seafood omelet with GF English muffin with delicious fresh fruit medley. Omelet was too much to eat bit I did finish the filling“
