I made reservations a week 1/2 prior with Mr. John Gieger for my daughter 16th birthday. I had about 25 guest. When we arrived, not only did they not know we were coming , but they did not have the proper staff on duty for the large party we had. The menu that's shown online was misleading because they changed there menu. The waitress was very nice and did what she could being the only one there. The wait was long and overall my daughter wasn't satisfied with here 16th birthday dinner. Unfortunately it wasn't a good first impression of this restaurant.

I made reservations on line for a wine pairing and was asked twice by email from them to confirm. Then the day of the event I was told that they do not take reservations and that they only thought about having a wine pairing and then decided not to because they couldn't get enough reservations. Time and money was spent on my part and their neglectgence was inexcusable. Never will ever recommend this place. If I can give less than one star. I would.

Food was mediocre to bad. Many menu items weren't available. Service was slow despite the place being empty. The venue is nice and hopefully it will eventually be occupied by a good restaurant.

We ate at Passe for Mother's Day brunch. I was a bit disappointed that we could only choose from the brunch menu which was rather small, especially since they weren't even busy. We had really been looking forward to the seafood beignets, but that wasn't on the brunch menu.
I ordered the Bananas Foster Pancakes. The pancakes were good, but the sauce was definitely off. The bananas were actually very thin and chewy. I didn't even know bananas could be chewy. I suspect that they used dehydrated bananas, but I can't be sure. Whatever they did, it was bad. My husband got the steak and it was overcooked with one side being much more done than the other. My mother got the shrimp and grits and I think her dish was okay.
With regard to decor, it was cute, but definitely not enough for a nice dinner. It was more like very nice diner decor.
I had heard good things about it, but it didn't live up to the hype.

We went there on Mother's Day and had a reservation at 2:30 pm. We got there at was greeted by no one. We had to go around the restaurant until a man in a booth told me that kitchen closed at 2:00 pm. The. After telling him we had a reservation he gets up and gets a waiter. The waiter came out so frazzled saying the kitchen closed at 2 and he don't know how the system let us make a reservation. He couldn't explain anything to the point that is seemed like a lie. The front desk receptionist at the hotel side didn't even know the kitchen closes at 2, which is another red flag. Then we looked at the hours and the restaurants hours and it said it was open to 10pm. For someone who calls there self the all day cafe, closing at 2pm on Mother's Day while letting people make reservation. It was not a good experience

My mother and I went to this place not knowing anything of it. Good thing we went, the water was so fun and nice, the food was delicious, and there was a good atmosphere. There wasn’t a lot of people, but it is new so maybe people don’t know about it. The restaurant is connected to the Origen hotel which is really convenient.

The decor is nice. We were the first to arrive around 11 am. We ordered breakfast brunch and our items were Lukewarm. I ended up asking for my grits to be warmed up more. I was given new hot grits. The temp of the food just made this a less than enjoyable experience. Not sure if I'd return.

This food was terrible. Worse than cafeteria food from the tiny school I went to in MS on leftover day. Seriously, I’ve had some bad food in my life and this restaurant is up there in the rankings as one of the worst. The fries were the worst offenders. The were different cuts, obviously frozen, and had been reheated multiple times. One was just raw potato on the inside, another had been reheated to an inedible crisp. The chicken was dry and not hot. They had clearly made the chicken a few days ago and threw it in the microwave or air fryer. Don’t waste your hard earned money here. There are lots of great restaurants in BR that deserve your money, but not this place. On the plus side, our waitress was great. But the food is the whole point of going to a restaurant.

Amazing menu, yummy food, and really friendly service at a new restaurant/hotel in downtown Baton Rouge!! We stayed at the hotel and were pleasantly surprised at the quality of food and Louisiana classics at this cute joint. Would recommend to anyone, even if not staying at the hotel!
My ood was undercooked with bacon on it. I said no pork .( redfish yaya) .my friend had the porkchop, which was undercooked . It took over 20 min to get gumbo and shrimp and crawfish dip. The experience was not worth the drive. My time. Or money.

Ordered breakfast sandwich on a weekend. Although, the food was pretty good, the waitress seemed to be a bit curt and on edge. For example, when I asked her what size are the pancakes, she asked "what do you mean?!" There were times I had to repeat myself or confused by her statements when she notified me that she had to clean off tables; I was not sure which tables needed to be cleaned off or where to sit.I did notice she was by herself and working on a number of tables. I recommend that the establishment have at least two people working on the floor and at least one person at the bar area.I'm not sure how the weekdays are but I do not wish to dine-in on weekends if Brione (sp?) is working. She needs to work on how she approaches people and reframe her responses with statements instead of questions. I do know other diners were responding to Brione behavior with a firm tone. I tried my best to answer her with a friendly tone. In light of this, the decor is funky yet warm and the food is very tasty.

Fabulous night discovering this new bar / restaurant downtown! This was a fun date night filled with good music and good food. The music was subtle and soft (not live music).Sat at the bar and ordered a few drinks from happy hour. For food we ordered the oysters, Mardi Gras pasta, and veggie flatbread. The flatbread was sooo good that we ate every piece of it.I recommend the food and drinks here! Not to mention the new Origin hotel design was very fun to observe.

This place is a must!!!, the atmosphere is very pleasant, the food was delicious and the portions were good. But the po boy and hamburger bread was supreme.Our waitress (beautiful girl with curly hair and light eyes... I forgot her name) was very friendly, she served us with a smile and guided us with the menu, even took her time to recommend places to visit.
