“I visited this bar several times while on holiday in the New Orleans area. It felt like a home away from home - friendly owners, staff and locals who welcomed us and showed us the southern hospitality I’ve heard so much about. You’ve got to try both the crab cakes and Gumbo - you can’t go wrong and is definitely a bargain! We felt looked after and safe in this bar which was local to where we were staying. Even when we moved 45 minutes away for the latter part of our trip, we still went back to say goodbye and have one last great night. Myself and my friends couldn’t be more grateful to Sam and George for having such an awesome bar that became the highlight of our visit from the UK to New Orleans. Missing the fun times we had there, now I’m back to the UK and reality! AlexKid-friendliness: SO FRIENDLY”
“Can't get more local than Charlie's. Servings are huge. All the food is good. Servers are always helpful, my go to spot when I get a visitor from out of state.”
“We preordered a catering package of mini donuts and chicken tenders for a Girl Scout trip w 11 people! We needed something quick to go between our White House and Capital tours. The order was done when we arrived. The chicken tenders were perfectly seasoned and cooked, so crunchy and moist. And the donuts were amazing! Great assortment of flavors and nice sweet dough. This was also our cheapest meal of the trip which was an added bonus!”
“BIG MEALS ARE MADE FROM THE BACK AND YOU CAN EAT THE BUFFET UNTIL U CANT EAT ANTMORE!Kid-friendliness: Penny had her grandkids grow up in the cafe and now her great grandson so they are things their for them to doParking: Many of spots available”
“Food is delicious. Stick with pizza - we tried several different things and that's where it's at.Service was great.Took a star off because the atmosphere is family oriented and relaxed until you realize everyone loitering in the parking lot looking to spend their last buck in the video poker games. It took some of the ambience out.”
“Me, Being from new orleans, this is a New Orleans place. Wednesday nights Italian night, a group of Italian young men play music it's fabulous, ask for Miss ”
“What can I say - this is the best place my partner and I spent time while in NOLA. There’s so much we didn’t see in our short first trip to the Crescent City but when we come back, we’ll spend lots of time here.✅perfect food, good for vegetarians✅friendly, approachable staff✅amazing music in an outdoor space✅southern hospitality, overflowingDo yourself a favor: order the baked feta and ask for a Mezcal Refresher.”
“The pho was absolutely delicious! As a Vietnamese American who is very picky about what is and isn't good pho, I can say that this tastes like true authentic home cooking. The broth is so full of flavor and they don't skimp on the toppings either.As for the banh mi, it seems like every local already knows that this bakery makes the best bread in town. I watched customer after customer walk out with giant bags full of plain bread, which should tell you exactly how good it is. It's a super light and airy French-style loaf, which makes it the perfect vessel for banh mi fillings. I love that the prices were reasonable and they were generous with the meat. This was 100% worth the 20 minute taxi ride to get here. I only wish we had come earlier, because even at 9AM, most of the baked goods had already sold out.”
“Parleaux is an amazing place for interesting one of a kind beers. I had not been there since 2019....until today. So glad they have expanded their hours to include Tuesday. Back in 2019 I had to wait until Thursday to go. So much better than Avenue Pub which truly stinks.I returned again on November 28. Beer is awesome and CJ is great too.”
“Very cute spot, visited during free cake Friday which was awesome. The crawfish bread was insanely good and so was the croissant sandwich. Will definitely try to visit anytime I’m in town.”
“The people were so friendly and the food was fresh and hot even after we got it for take out and walked a block back to our VRBO! Homemade grits and biscuits were great!”
“Is a great neighborhood/dive bar. Like most neighborhood bars, it can also tend to be cliquey, but as stated before, it's also a laid-back divey bar. Most people still have zero reservation about chatting it up with a friendly or interesting face. The bartenders will pour the same whether it is an old regular or a new transplant looking for a bar to have a few beers at not too far from the house.”
“I can't even begin to describe how much I LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! My daughter & I have made it our go-to spot. We're usually there twice a week at least. The bahn mi sandwiches are SO GOOD! The owner is the sweetest & kindest man I've ever met. All of the employees are very friendly & very efficient at their jobs. I just can't say enough good things about this establishment & the people who make you feel so welcome.”
“The food was so delicious! I had the grape leave and chicken Tikka plate. The cucumber and tomato salad was so good, the chicken fell off the bone and the flavor was amazing. The rice was perfect! I loved all of it!”
“Cannot say enough positive stuff about Elizabeth's. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the staff was very attentive and friendly but the food!!!OMG! The portions are HUGE, and the taste is amazing. This is a MUST stop!!”
“We had the Creole Queen beignets, fries, and warm apple beignets, they were delicious! The next day we went back for the Creole Queen grits. Oh my gosh ya'll, they are the best grits I've had, buttery, melt in your mouth goodness!!”
“We regularly drive past a dozen coffee shops to go here. You can’t get breakfast burritos & high quality coffee at a more affordable price anywhere. Staff is incredibly friendly as well.”
“Loved the king cake. It was soft, fresh, and not too sweet. The service was great. He was patient and answered my questions. It was my first visit, and I look forward to going again.”
“I’m always excited to go Zydeco’s the food is so delicious that I drove my entire family from the panhandle just to do a turn and burn. No one was disappointed! I can’t wait to go back! Fresh food, good service, excellent price!”
“Everything was great. Very professional and knowledgeable of the products they're using. Also the staff makes you feel right at home. Love it. I highly recommend it.”
“I read good reviews so I thought id give it a try. Little place in a strip mall. Maybe 4 tables and a counter for dining in. Friendly, smiley staff.THE FOOD: I ordered a guacamole and 4 tacos with various meats. The guacamole was REALLY good. Not shy about using Cilantro, a little jalapeno, really delicious!Barbacoa, carnitas and birría tacos were just fantastic and had a little au ju on the side which added so much flavor. A little out of the way, but worth it!”
“Absolutely, THE BEST brisket I've ever eaten. It was so good, I promise I will make the drive from Brandon, MS, just to eat there, again and again, without hesitation!”
“Been coming here for 2+ years.Pastries - the best around.Coffee - pretty dang good.Frozen coffees - the best in the city.Vibe - chill af but professional.My wife and I go out of our way to go to Eblouir for treats. Try their mini cheesecakes.”
“Love this place SO MUCH! My favorite bartender is Misty, but they're all amazing. The food was good, but the Melissa (Alma owner) took over- FANTASTIC! It's now a true "Gastro-dive! If you haven't been, go!”
“My husband and I visited Royal Roastery after he received a gift from a coworker from here this holiday season. Absolutely wonderful place, we came out with so many delicious snacks and spices! They have a whole section of gummy candy, which is my JAM. We also got a pound of freshly ground coffee, and sampled a coffee flavored with cardamom pods. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Great place!”
“Food was very fresh & delicious. Portions are HUGEEEE! Literally enough to share between 3-4 people. If you’re not a fan of spicy food you can always ask for your food without any spice. I got a level 0.5 for my food (tom kha soup & tofu pad se ew) and that was perfect for me. My husband got his panang curry a 1.5 level & that made my lips burn, but it was the perfect spice level for him. Not sure how anyone can order the level 5 spice unless they can handle the spiciest food known to man lol we also ordered the combination fried rice (delicious) and chicken satay. I have never seen chicken satay with sauce on it like they serve here, but it was very yummy! the thai green tea was also very refreshing.”
“Super yummy i had the beef and shrimp spring rolls the banh mi sandwich and vermicelli bowl with lemongrass chicken. Wish I would have taken a pic but was so hungry we didn't lol. The area is a lil sketchy but def worth it and it's clean would definitely go again!”
“Stopped in the get some Great tasting cookies. The proprietor , Ms Debra was well mannered, professional, helpful to select seasonal themed cookies. The establishment was clean & organized. Service was effective & efficient, I will plan on returning to this establishment.”
“Cheesecake Heidi's Cheesecakes are rich and delicious, the customer service is remarkable. I love that her cakes are huge and not over priced. I would recommend this business to friends and family and I will be returning as well”
