I had a wonderful brunch at Cafe Amelie. The shrimp and grits were excellent and the service was very good.

Service was friendly professional and prompt. while food was exceptional, the presentationFor the chicken and waffles was subpar at best. It looked like my 16 year old prepared it. The waffleWas crispy and light though. The ambience was very crowded with minimal spaceFrom the neighboring tables. Would return for the gumbo

We had a reservation and the lady up front messed it up. Asked us to wait outside for ten minutes then forgot about us. Thankfully the lady behind the bar was amazing and took care of us, the waitress was amazing as well. Very good food!

Disappointing place to eat for our anniversary. They were out of ribs and the gumbo. We weren’t told until after we had ordered. They brought me the bisque instead and said they’d comp my gumbo. However, they didn’t end up comping the gumbo, and I didn’t realize this until we left (which is on me for not checking). It took awhile for our meal to come out and for drink refills. The food was fine and atmosphere was fine. But, I wouldn’t go back.

Service was kind, but for a birthday party, they put us at the front and added an additional almost $150 to our bill that we did not order, also made us pay for birthday deserts which i thought was odd. We had since tried to contact them multiple times about the bill and we have not heard back from

I came here for my birthday, made reservations weeks in advance. It was for a party of 8. And was still told to wait for a table and was seated up front by the door when I was told I was going to be in the back. It was extremely chaotic up there but it was fine and I was willing to deal with it. Once the bill came out I noticed I was charged for my complimentary dessert, they fixed that and finished my charge. Once I got home I realized how much I was charged. They over charged me over $150 in food. Ringing me up for food I didn’t even receive or order, I called them and after 4 phone calls they fixed one of the charges. I’m still owned atleast $130 + tax & tip they took from me. This is so ridiculous saying I came to celebrate my birthday and was overly charged. If you can’t do separate tickets for a big order atleast charge correctly. I understand a mistake but to be charged a list of foods I didn’t even order seems more than just a mistake. Seems like a scam. Terrible experience and the food was okay but definitely not worth it.

We absolutely loved the food and all of us loved the drinks as well! We booked ahead thankfully and had a great New Orleans meal.
The food was excellent and they have a few vegan options which is much appreciated. Our server was attentive and the setting was pleasant. We had a great lunch here! Be sure to make a reservation.

Very creative menu, cool space and great service. My daughter claimed to not like grits, but their amazing shrimp and grits changed her tune. Truly one of the best meals we ate in New Orleans!
Dahlia R.
Food was amazing, staff very friendly and attentive. We sat in the outside patio very nice atmosphere. We will definitely be returning when in New Orleans.

This was an amazing brunch place! We enjoyed the atmosphere and the staff were amazing! We had the Amelie Benedict as well as the Cochon De Lait Sandwich. Everything was so good. We would definitely go back again.

We went back in October and I had the shrimp and grits and the bread pudding and both were amazing!
