The food was good once they finally got the order right. Service was lacking and not very attentive to things like refilling a coffee mug during breakfast. I watched our food die in the window long enough to change my over easy eggs into very well done eggs.

Stopped at the Mid City Ruby Slipper while visiting New Orleans for the week. I had the strawberry & almond pancakes and they were quite tasty. My friends all had the southern breakfast which they all enjoyed. We had the lemon blueberry beignets as a breakfast appetizer, they were tasty but tiny. Prices were OK, considering the location, and the service was very good, server was friendly. Don’t get to NO often but would stop again. Enjoyable experience.

We started the day off here with great food, great cocktails, quirky and friendly service, and will be returning before we head home. My wife and I enjoyed some Bourbon Milk punch at 9:30am to start our Sunday off right. I had a fantastic shrimp and grits, and she enjoyed a new twist on biscuits and gravy. We're from North Georgia, and biscuits and gravy are a staple country breakfast option, this was a little different than we're used to seeing around us but super enjoyable nonetheless.10/10 I will recommend the Ruby Slipper to anyone wanting good service, food, and a genuine atmosphere.

I want to be upfront about my experience, but I also want to acknowledge the efforts made by the manager, Charles, to address the issue promptly. My visit to the restaurant this morning started off with a delay in service, which was a bit frustrating. However, I appreciate that the hostess noticed, and Charles, being the polite and attentive manager he is, came out to speak with me.During our conversation, Charles kindly offered to buy my breakfast to make up for the inconvenience. Although I couldn't accept his offer at that moment due to personal reasons, I'm grateful for his gesture and understanding. It's important to me to maintain a sense of fairness, and I had every intention of paying for my meal from the start, I could not accept a free meal, because of lackluster service.I've been a regular patron of this restaurant and have even brought my team for sessions in the past. I believe that constructive feedback like mine can lead to positive changes and improvements in service. While my experience today wasn't perfect, I'm hopeful that in the future, I'll be able to return and enjoy a smoother visit. Today may not have been the best day, but it's an opportunity for growth and improvement for everyone involved.

We went in Sunday morning and we were limited on time. Haley was super great and got us out quickly. So we went back on Monday and had a great time. Haley was our waitress again, I can’t say enough about her, when you go to the Red Slipper ask for her.Now for the food. The beignets come out fresh out of the fryer and are so good, this is one that you shouldn’t pass up. The grits and cheese are delicious, one of the best grits I’ve had. (I grew up in north East Tennessee eating grits)Biscuits and gravy, what can be said about this classic? Well you can say freshly baked biscuits smothered in sausage gravy, that will make you wish you could have them everyday. The bacon is perfectly cooked and the applewood smoke is just the right amount.The fried green tomatoes are cut to the perfect thickness and the cornbread coating is just the right thickness, then fried to perfection.I can’t finish this without mentioning the coffee, they have a blend made just for the Red Slipper and it is so good.As you can tell I’m very impressed with this place and you will be too. Between the staff and the food this place will become one of your favorite restaurants.
