Unprofessional staff!!!
LaLou's was great for brunch with my cousins. We were a party of 8, called ahead, but still had a bit of a wait. The food was very good. Service was OK. We did need to ask for drink refills since they were so busy. The place, itself, is very warm and charming.

Excellent!
My new favorite restaurant in Mandeville. Staff was wonderful and professional, and our waitress was amazing (young woman with blonde hair). I brought my dog since they allow them if they are well behaved/you sit outside and she even brought him a bowl of cold water. The pancakes were the best I’ve ever had, the portions were huge, prices were reasonable, and the restaurant itself had a really and cute relaxing vibe. Absolutely recommend.

Absolutely phenomenal place. Cool. Authentic. Delicious. Just all around amazing. The owners are fabulously kind and hospitable people. The food is beyond Delicious and the portions are so big you don't need to eat for the rest of the day after eating a meal here. Its so hard so choose a favourite but I would have to say the shrimp grits, the redfish grill, the tamles benedict, boudin benedicts, and the crab omelette were the best. And for sweet the French toast, the sweet potato pancakes, and the lemon ricotta pancakes were beyond delicious! Just ANYTHING on this menu will be delicious so if you are deciding where to eat DO NOT SKIP this place! The service is really efficient, fast, and the girls are super sweet!

Must say… we were disappointed. Started with chaos at the hostess stand. We were told there was a 20 minute wait but then told that outside was first come first serve.
We decided to sit off the front porch waiting for our server, menus and drinks. When she came, we had to ask for menus and alcoholic drinks were on a separate menu.
The presentation of the food was nice, but it ended up being ok, not great.
We had the Blue crab Benedict & Chicken & Waffle. The Benedict was so so… English muffin was not toasted/warm, the eggs were overcooked and the grits were ice cold.
The chicken & waffle was just ok … and lukewarm.
It’s a quaint little cafe… we were hoping for a better experience.

Are there this morning with my family on our way out back home. Everything was excellent! The pancakes are ginormous and delicious! I really enjoyed the pimento cheese and biscuits and the shrimp and grits! Next time we are in town, we will be back!

Lovely little spot for breakfast. The food and service were worth the 20-minute wait to sit inside to enjoy the atmosphere of the restaurant. Especially great for out of town guests who want a meal they recognize but with Louisiana flair!

Food was lukewarm 40min with a mid-packed house, waitress came and asked if food was, “hot and delicious?” —Whoops bad wording there
Waitress disappeared and water glasses and coffee cups were bone dry while waitress didn’t check on us for 15min intervals at a time.
White gravy was a lukewarm slop.
Biscuit was tiny and cold.
Grits were a overwatered-down slop. C’maw, the place is NAMED for the Deep South. Dude get the grits and biscuits right. You should be KNOWN for those two staples alone. For shame. Sausage patty was aight but lukewarm.
Eggs were the same. Barely any heat to em at all. And it’s quite a pricey place to eat. But once again, overpriced food that leaves you wanting… what you actually had to pay for. Lower your prices with these performance levels. $25 a head for breakfast food. Youch.
We waited 40min. The food should’ve been scorching hot. Most likely? The food was left on the line under lukewarm heating lamps for 18min while the waitress smoked cigarettes. I’ve seen it too many times.

Great breakfast spot just down from the lake and Donz.
I had the Dr Keller grits and grillades and the veal was delicious.
As a Mandeville native back for a short visit, it was a treat.
