“This is a place that my husband and I will always go! Every time we have company in town, we take them here. The service is great, the food is always amazing, and the overall atmosphere is very inviting (especially when they have music playing). 10/10 recommend the crawfish etoufffee over redfish and jalapeño cheddar grits. (It's to die for) The duck wraps are great, the cocktails and wine are always a great choice. Can't wait to visit again.”

“My favorite restaurant in Monroe. The menu changes regularly, with some staples always on there, and the new menu items always something unique. Regardless of which way your order, it will always be well made and delicious. Service is top notch, from someone answering the phone, or greeting and seating you, to the bartenders, waitstaff, and the folks bussing tables. The drink and wine selection is fabulous, as well. I highly recommend this as a great celebratory night out, or high-end date night, or just treating yourself. It's worth every dollar.”

“We went to Abuela's for the experience of having the robot deliver chips and salsa. The robot is pretty cool. The Vegetarian rice bowl is awesome. I loved the different vegetables in it. Grilled green and red peppers, grilled onions, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots. A lot of vegetables over rice. The house dressing is good too. The bowl is a great option if you want a nice bowl without any meat. The only bad thing I have to say is the back dining room where we were taken for a table was pretty dirty. The floors hadn't been swept and there was trash in the floor. Couple of tables not cleaned off. And there wasn't any reason for that dining area to not be cleaned. It wasn't busy back there and our waiter kept walking right past the mess. We ate lunch there on Valentines Day and it was totally different. There was fresh flowers on the tables. Balloons over the tables. Everything was clean. It was somewhat disappointing to go the next time and it was dirty. Hopefully it was just a fluke but when I mentioned it to the hostess she didn't act like she cared about the trash at all. I'll go again just because I like the vegetarian bowl but I'll sit in the front dining room. I'd go back for the chip/salsa delivering robot lol”

“We ate lunch here on a Friday. I got a muffuletta and 2 others got the buffet. I really liked the muffuletta and my companions really liked the deserts on the buffet. We paid $33 for our food including tax so it was a reasonable price for lunch. One con, I don’t really like the air hockey table as it was very loud the one time someone played it. Recommended for the food, but the air hockey table was distracting.”

“Since I rounded up my review of Johnny's on 18th St from 3.5 to 4 stars last year, I'll be fair and round up this review from 4.6 to 5 stars. Mimi's is definitely better than Johnny's. The dough is more flavorful than the Bisquick biscuit mix style they have at Johnny's. And I can identify what is on my pizza. That was a stretch of the imagination over there. This is definitely New York style pizza. It has the soggy mushy crust in the center, and the dough becomes a little drier and more chewy as it radiates out to a crispy edge. Thin crust. I've learned to take a small bite at the pointy end of my slice and a small bite at the round edge and chew these together to get a better balanced chew. Then I work my way towards the center of the slice. I traveled for over 25 years in my job, so I've had pizza all across America, some were NY style (although I never had it in NYC, just in other parts of that state).I walked in and ordered this a little after 3pm on Saturday, Oct 21, 2023. I had errands to run, so I requested a 4:30 pick-up time. That was fine with Colby since he had 3 customers ahead of me. I ordered the 16 inch pizza with Italian sausage, bell pepper, and onion. Total was $27.60. I put down $30 cash. Got $2 change. They DID NOT HAVE any coin change except for pennies. ? ? ? ?♂️ So I said we would settle up when I returned. I came back at 4:35, and Colby saw me drive up and brought the pizza out to me, which I appreciated. I had some loose change in my car, plus some in my pocket, so we went inside and I traded $2 in coin for 2 $1 bills from him. Then I got my 40 cents change.As for the pizza it was good overall, did not get sick, but I never tasted any oregano or basil on it. To me, those 2 herbs make it Italian. I stopped in about 2 months ago soon after they opened to check on ingredients to be sure I could eat there (I have digestive problems with soy (common vegetable oil) and additives such as MSG (Accent) flavor enhancer and sodium phosphate). We were good - olive oil and didn't sprinkle Accent on it like Newk's does. And the young woman cashier assured me they used oregano and basil because she had worked at other pizza joints where they did not know what those were. Yet I didn't taste any herbs and didn't see any herb flakes. I ate some cold the next morning for breakfast and still didn't taste any.I eat a low salt diet, so I found this pizza to be a bit salty. I chose not to get pepperoni for this reason, but either the dough or the mozzarella cheese was saltier than I prefer. And the Italian sausage was also salty, plus I prefer more anise in it, like the brand I buy for home. It did have bell pepper and red onion on it, but I would have preferred more, a bit skimpy in my opinion. Overall, I liked this pizza. Turns out the 16 inch pizza was actually 18 inches, so more than I expected. It IS better than Johnny's. But I still prefer the artisan style pizza I like to get at Billy's Pizza in Vicksburg, Frank's Pizza in Shreveport, and that pizza I got at some brewhouse on US Route 2 along the New Hampshire / Maine border in February 2004 when there was snow on the ground.”

Ice Cream Shop • $
“The best ice cream I’ve had by far! The last 2 times I’ve been have been horrible experiences. One time there was a frozen moth in my ice cream cup, the second time I ordered a small twister and received a small cup with two bites of ice cream in it. The staff is rude. I’ve never had a bad experience until this summer. Will definitely be visiting the West Monroe location from now on.”

“Look here, look here, look heeaa‼️‼️Best BBQ I’ve had since 2007! My Uncle was the grill master before his passing.This meat is PERFECT! Chicken isn’t dry, don’t take forever to chew, the ribs are perfect as well…You can TASTE the smokiness of the wood used in the meat…and don’t worry bout need all the extra thick sauce, the light gravy like sauce is ENUFF! Too much sauce WILL take away from the perfectly skilled labor of love that produced this meat.”

“Mom and I have been craving crawfish, so it was time for a visit to Dixie Land Mudbugs! We got two of the 4lb bags, but 2lbs each would have been plenty! There was a good mix of huge crawfish and little ones. Each bag came with one piece of corn and two potatoes. I hate spicy food, and these were perfect for me. Mom would have preferred a little more spice! It was very good and I'm going back for the gumbo next time! You can call in your order ahead of time. Definitely worth the drive.”

Barbecue • $
“This is one of my favorite places to pick up supper on my way home from work. The staff is always so friendly and my order is always prepared quickly. The chicken is my favorite for sure. Their ribs are tender and meaty. I'm not crazy about their fried ribs, but I know other people who love them. They have spicy and mild bbq sauces. I prefer the mild. I've tried most all of their side items and they've been disappointing. I usually don't even bother ordering their sides anymore. While the meats are consistently tasty the sides have been consistently "just okay". I think that their prices are very reasonable. Nothing special about the ambiance at all. Not exactly "date night" atmosphere but perfect for folks looking for a place to get good food from friendly people”

“I worked here when I went up to Monroe to sober up and get my life together... The burgers and hamburger steaks are hand-stuffed fresh every morning and seered on a fired up grill until cheese and onions are bursting out of the tops of them.... We serve them sizzling and the fries are just as hot and fresh. They serve buffalo wings, fried zucchini, fried mushrooms, fried chicken tacos, and homemade onion rings...You can sit at the bar and have a beer while watching a your favorite team play on the big screens... Or you can watch them from a table with the wife and kids... Whether there or to go, the experience is awesome... Been in business for over 30 years for a reason, ya know... Couldn't ask for a better boss... Firm believers in Christ and giving second chances to people who need them the most. I miss it out there so bad.”

The manager is an awesome guy and remembered us from the last time we were there several weeks ago. Now, these people are doing it right and need a raise. I am not joking here. Great employees deserve greater pay.”

“Food is great! But, you look online at their menu and call to place an order just to find out for instance their 50 pc is no longer $48.99, but is now almost $20 more at $65 something. Then, you ask abiut it and get told their prices updated a year ago. Weird. You would think they would update their pricing and/or menu since the info is apparently outdated on Google.”

Salad • $
“Love this casual warm inviting spot in downtown Monroe. Took my sister for her birthday after the Black History Parade. The rave reviews I'd heard were well deserved. I got Fried Catfish with Crawfish Ettouffee. My sister had Fried Dhrimp & Fried Oysters. My niece had chargrilled Oysters on the shell. Everything was delicious. Our server was great. Their outdoor dining patio is beautiful.”
Tacos • $
“Great place to get street tacos. Just go pick it up lol. My dasher stole most of my order. The restaurant was gonna replace it all for free but i decided to wait on hold with doordash for 45 mins to get them to cover it. Local restaurants shouldn't pay for corporate greed.”
Chinese • $
“In my opinion, best Chinese food in Monroe. They have a great variety of dishes, salads, appetizers, the food is constantly fresh right out of the kitchen. I go there and get to-go plates and I pack those containers as tight as I can get them! And the prices are more than reasonable.Parking: Plenty of spots available as they are in a strip mall.”
Chicken • $
“This is my third time going to Raising Cane's and its always been the same, delicious food each time. The consistancy has been the same! I cant help but adore their cane's sauce, it is one of the best sauces i've ever had. If a chicken place was described as an art piece, then this would be the mona lisa.Parking: Beware of the parking though, its a little cramped.”

“My favorite restaurant in Monroe. The menu changes regularly, with some staples always on there, and the new menu items always something unique. Regardless of which way your order, it will always be well made and delicious. Service is top notch, from someone answering the phone, or greeting and seating you, to the bartenders, waitstaff, and the folks bussing tables. The drink and wine selection is fabulous, as well. I highly recommend this as a great celebratory night out, or high-end date night, or just treating yourself. It's worth every dollar.”
