Part of a hotel that has made no effort to keep the place up. The was no music or anything when I was there, but there is an amazing jazz lounge across the street.

Management needs to revamp this place. It is terrible. Food is good. We had breakfast there every day for four days since it was included in our stay. There is no organization from host to wait staff. Most of the staff will not even speak to you. They will yell at you if you try to seat yourself. You can stand by the entrance for 5 or more minutes being ignored. We waited 30 minutes from being seated to someone taking our order. We even asked 2-3 times for a waiter. Poorly run establishment!!!! And if you use the hotel vouchers, be careful it includes the tip, on the first day we ended up leaving a 40% tip for average service.

The Cafe Opera is our favorite place to go for breakfast in the French Quarter The staff are all wonderful and the omelets are terrific.

I stayed at the 4 Points Sheraton for a week in October 2018. My lodging included breakfast every day at the Cafe Opera; initially I was a touch skeptical (after all, it's New Orleans and there are amazing restaurants on every corner and this is the hotel restaurant). Cafe Opera won me over. The menu isn't vast, but the food is excellent and excellently prepared. The atmosphere is relaxing, low key and thankfully not crazy noisy like so many restaurants. The service here exceeded any expectation I could have had. Every morning, I walked in and Mary greeted me and, after the first morning, remembered me. She made sure I had a cuppa hot tea and took great care of me. She was engaging, funny and made me feel welcomed every morning. I recommend the Cafe Opera.

Good choices on the menu...everything from a full blown eggs, bacon, hash browns, toast, coffee/tea to an eggs sandwich.

The menu on Yelp is no longer valid. Their breakfast menu is WAY SHORTER AND WAY HIGHER PRICES! Oatmeal for 9$ ! Pancakes no longer have blueberries in them but a "blueberry" sauce now. No Benedict options :(. No Four Points Breakfast. New Orleans has way better options. Unfortunately it is Christmas so there weren't many options today ..

Super friendly staff, new menu with great food options! Especially great fro breakfast if you are in town for work and need to get something early before the restaurants in the Quarter open.

We had breakfasts and lunches there. Good food in the hotel. Friendly staff. Give it a try if you do not want to walk.

We ate breakfast one day and had catered lunches and banquet. The chef is excellent - not your standard fare for the catering menu. Excellent!

Bananas Foster was very good, Place was empty, even during Mardi Gras

Dead-center of so-so, this gorgeous restaurant and bar serves as the in-house eatery and watering hole for the beautifully refurbished Four Points Sheraton hotel on the corner of Bourbon and Toulouse Streets, and also offers their room service. It isn't going to be one of the highlights of your trip, abd the only reasons you'd patronize it might include being too tired, hung-over or physically-incapable of walking or riding half a block or more in any direction, but those things do occur in NOLA, and Cafe Opera will do in a pinch. I see here on Yelp! that it bills itself as Cajun/Creole, but this is a mild imitation of either. The restaurant is clearly tourist-adjusted American with a smattering of drabbed-down French, adjusted for the masses, not the connoisseur or foodie, so don't be expecting that. We had the food from all angles, restaurant, bar and room service and nothing really stands out. The room service offered a ribeye, cooked perfectly one time, tough, grainy and full of gristle two nights later. The service, however, is excellent. The bar has decent soups, though a bit over-salty, and the house interpretation of the famous Sazerac, while not authentic, is passable. A solid 3-Star experience.

We had a delightful dinner here! Wandered in because it was quiet compared to the noise of bourbon st. We had the lamb that was a special tonight, and we had the fried catfish. Two in our group had salads. The bread pudding was amazing. we were delighted with everything we had. The chef even came out to chat with us about our meal. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

We had breakfast, lunch, and dinner here, and all our meals were very good. The breakfast omelettes are huge, and tasty. I had a burger for lunch, and it was also very large and good. For dinner I had the chicken garlic pasta which was ok, but the ribeye my wife had was fantastic. The chef even whipped up some hollandaise sauce for the steak even though it wasn't on the menu! Service was great!

We were staying at the Four Points Sheraton so I went in to have breakfast with my great-grandma and great-aunt and Tori our waitress had a negative attitude. Her facial expressions, sighing, huffing and puffing is NOT how someone behaves in the customer service industry. She set the menus right on top of our silverware. The menus that everyone touches and that get dropped on the floor then rolled her eyes and said "ooookaaaaay" when I asked for clean silverware and explained why twice since the first time she acted as if she didn't understand English. We told her several times that we were waiting for one more person but she didn't acknowledge that. I had to ask for her to pour water for the late arrival and she took the menu so the late arrival wouldn't have it. The late arrival was much later than we expected and showed up at 11:01am right after they put up the closed sign and closed the door. The late arrival explained that she was joining us and not going to order anything after Tori lifted and dropped her shoulders and let out a big sigh. The food was ok and the fruit was fresh. I needed some honey for my oatmeal, but didn't feel like dealing with Tori's negative attitude so I didn't ask for it. My aunt got toast but wasn't given jam or jelly and when she asked for extra butter it took almost 10 minutes for Tori to bring it. At that point there was only one other guest. There were only 3 other tables in use when we came and the atmosphere was very boring and sad. No one smiled. We weren't thanked for coming nor welcomed back.
