“Headed to New Orleans in July, and Sweet Vegan Soul Food will be my first stop after leaving the airport. This will be my third visit to this restaurant. The food is absolutely delicious! The facility is clean and the staff is so friendly. When traveling I’m always excited to locate a tasty vegan restaurant and this place is my spot when in New Orleans! I can’t rave about it’s food enough…simply delicious!“

“Today was our first time having food from here. We ordered via Uber Eats. Everything was absolutely delicious! my kids and I were beyond satisfied. The portions were plentiful, allowing our family food for tomorrow as well.“

“10/ 10.. we highly recommend! My family of 12 came in and they had no problem seating us and giving us the best experience ever! Rocky provided the BEST customer service that we have received throughout our entire time in NOLA. She gave great recommendations on the food which was all GREAT.. kudos to the chef also! The bartender was also not slipping as she woke up the family with the drinks and vibes! Let’s just say if you’re in the area B Spot is definitely a must to be added to the itinerary… oh and Rocky also had her list of recommendations ready for things to do! The experience was amazing!!! Thanks B Spot for showing us the true NOLA vibe!! 🥰“

“This was my first time here and it was amazing! The bbq ribs fell off the bone and the collard greens were flat out delicious!! I would definitely recommend! The portions are great for the price too. The staff was really friendly and the service was fast. It is cash only so bring some with you, you won’t be disappointed.“

“Was greeted as soon as I walked in the door. The man at the front was friendly and patient as I had to take a look at the menu before ordering. I noticed he was like that with everyone that walked in as well. Very pleasant. I had the fish sandwich and it was hands down the best fish sandwich I'd had in my life! I will be back next time im in town (or maybe again before I leave this trip 😃)“

“Kelly is the best. I live in Shreveport, but had to do my family reunion events in or around New Orleans. Food Symphony was recommended to me by my cousin. I called Kelly and she got the ball rolling. We had good communication through the planning of my Meet and Greet Event for my family. When I walked into my rented space, I was amazed how beautiful the entire set up was. I had the colors I wanted, and all the foods I had requested. The foods were beyond delicious. My family enjoyed the foods, and can't stop talking about the experience that had in Harvey, Louisiana at the Food Symphony/Timeless Moments Event Hall. Thank you Kelly and Trena. Everything was pleasing.“

“Good soulfood great go to spot after church on a sunday“

“Absolutely Amazing! One of my favorite places“

“Great food reasonably priced. Much better than some of the better known and prettier places we’ve eaten at in Nola. We had the super dome and Benson Boogie. We will be back!“

“Had a chance to jump over to the new location this morning and the food remained completely on point. Much better parking situation and just a few minutes further down the road. The best improvement with the new space is the amazing dining room for folks who want to sit down and eat. Loved the decor, the new mascot and best of all, the same super friendly staff. Thanks!!!“

“Delicious!! 10 STARS! Everything was perfection! The lamb was outta this world! Opa! Mazel!“

“Nola Delicious Cuisines is DELICIOUS!!! Ms. Bianca is by far the best caterer I've found. The food is always perfectly seasoned and served hot and fresh. The service is prompt and extremely professional, and the prices are reasonable. I'll definitely be back. You have a lifetime customer.“

“bon resto équipe sympa les plats sont bons“

“Yesterday, I went to this quaint cafe in Westwego. I ordered grilled fish-tilapia with sides(potato salad and green beans). Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted great. Ms. Estralita (owner) was very nice while taking my order. She gave me a nice serving (sample of her bread pudding) which was fabulous as well.
This place was recommended to me so I am so glad I tried it out! I will definitely be back.
C. Allison 😇“

“Some of the best food in New Orleans“

“The minute you walk in you just know it’s about to be good. We ordered the turkey neck with rice and gravy, cabbage and cornbread as sides. Everything was sooo good! 10/10. The lady at the counter was also very sweet and helpful . I’d recommend this place to anyone who’s looking for authentic soul food“

“I thought Kajunlicious was still only open for takeout, but when we walked up to the takeout door, they invited us in. They were very hospitable to my family and I and the food was delicious. I look forward to when they can open the bar!“

“Catty Car Corner brings an authentic, bustling taste of Southern comfort straight to the New Orleans Central Business District. This popular cafeteria-style lunchtime hotspot serves up massive, affordable portions of soul food favorites like savory baked chicken, ribs, and gumbo. The fast, friendly service makes it a fantastic urban escape.“

“I ordered chicken yesterday, and when I received my order, it wasn’t fresh and didn’t taste good. Rather than leave a negative review, I decided to call the restaurant and share my experience directly.

I have to say, the owner was incredibly kind. Her customer service was impeccable, and she immediately offered to make it right. The only thing she asked was that I return the food, which I thought was completely fair.

We talked for a while, and she thanked me for giving her the opportunity to address the issue instead of bashing her business online. That conversation showed me how much she genuinely cares about her customers and her reputation.

Mistakes can happen at any restaurant, but what truly matters is how they’re handled. This business handled my complaint with professionalism, kindness, and respect.

For that reason, I give them 20 stars. Excellent customer service and a business that stands behind its customers!“

“I purchased the boiled seafood, crabs and shrimp. It was really delicious, seasoned well.. My new seafood spot!“

“Friendly ppl great food I was in New Orleans and they treat u like you are from there just all around good ppl THANKS“

“🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“Got recommended here by a customer and I got a giant thing of gumbo for $10. To my surprise they put a crab in it made it taste great and had shrimp. Try the crawfish pasta this is actual affordable food not processed at other restaurant you’d pay at least $25-$30 for processed stuff this is home cooked food the drinks were only $1“

“Come in as stranger leave as family“

“Great vibes friendly and loving staff and the owner is outstanding“

“I came all the way from Compton, Cali to try this offa a TikTok I seen and it was worth the flight. they got everything in this place too.“

“Awesome place!! Quesadillas are Awesome and Delicious as well as the Stuffed Bell Pepper and Fried Fish!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Another night in NOLA which means it’s time to try a new food spot. Earlier today I was over on Canal and passed by Willie’s. The smell itself drew me in and I decided at that moment that I was coming back. LoL!!!! Willie’s sits right on the strip so it’s super easy to find. The front was totally open and there were a few tables outside on the sidewalk. As the strip is super active, sitting outside would be dope if you wanted to people watch. LoL. Walking up to the counter, each register had a cashier so the line was running smoothly. Taking a moment to review the menu, it was as one would anticipate; simple, straightforward, and one dimensional. The highlight of Willie’s definitely appears to be the Daiquiri’ as there are many options. I decided on the 3pc Cajun Tender Combo which comes with Fries and a Honey Biscuit. I also added a side of Red Beans and Rice. I mean, it is NOLA so I had to do it. I placed my order. Received my number. And took a seat to await my order. The restaurant was clean and vibrant. The yellow and red throughout the restaurant really set an upbeat tone that pairs well with the neon lights and vibrant colors of the Daiquiris. Once my order was ready, it was delivered to the table and I was good to go. Let’s talk the Food: Biscuit - Simple. Buttery. Crunchy around the bottom edges. Soft in the middle. Nothing special to note. Reminds me of a biscuit from Church’s. I’ll say 7/10. Tenders - Big. Juicy. Crunchy on the outside. Well seasoned. That’s it. That’s all I got. 😂😂😂😂😂😂. I’ll say 5/10. Fries - Well Seasoned. Crunchy. I’ll say 7/10. Red Beans and Rice - Now hear me out. I love a good RB&R and these were good. There were way more beans than there was rice, which is ideal for this kind of dish. They weren’t too spicy. They were flavored well and the beans were tender. You can definitely tell they were slow simmered. I’ll say 8/10. Now… hear me out! The food wasn’t bad but for $25.00, chileeeeeeeeeeee. No ma’am, No sir. Lemme go to the chicken spot for half the price. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying I won’t maybe go again if I want a lil piece of a tender. But at $13 for the Combo and $8 for the RB&R… imma need a coupon or something. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Ok, Ok. In all seriousness, if you’re in the area, go for the experience. *P. S. For my Up North people, Willie’s puts me in the mindset of our “New York Fried Chicken” spots that be on the strip in the hood.“
