“The looks of the food does no justice. You have to actually try their food. Living in a world with so much inflation and bad unhealthy food, I left here feeling like I received my monies worth. I ate half my plate and I had energy to do other activities afterwards. I walked the French Quarter and didn’t feel tired. I finished the rest of my plate for dinner and instead of feeling tired and sleepy, I decided to come here and write this post. Worth every second of my time. Eating vegetables are an exciting experience, especially when you can eat them and feel good.“

“I took a chance to drive here w/ my wife from Baton Rouge. We've been fasting for Ramadhan, so I was praying they came through and didn't make me look bad in front of my wife. They offer the same sides w/o pork! I had the lamb chops, mixed greens, yams, potato salad and cornbread. My wife had the lamb chops and mac and cheese....The mac and cheese and cornbread were just okay in my opinion. Everything else was ???....Definitely ? them in!! I'll keep taking that ride w/o hesitation. Nice lil chill vibe inside. They didn't disappoint!“

“I was in the mood for some gumbo & stopped here after reading reviews. The reviews don't lie - their gumbo was Sooooo good! The best I've had with perfectly cooked sausage, shrimp, & chicken and just the right amount of kick. I loved that the combo came with grilled cheese & potato salad; it was the perfect balance. We also ordered the lobster mash and it was delicious! I only got a few bites before my husband devoured it. We'll definitely visit next time we're in NOLA.“

“Found this from reading reviews and we weren’t disappointed—- very well organised staff, not the smartest of buildings ( but our server said they are moving to larger premises soon ) but the friendly helpful staff are great! I loved their eggs Benedict- so much so we went back a couple of days later!! Hubby enjoyed an omelette first time then second visit he had their French toast which came with fresh grapes & pineapple and was absolutely delicious! Refill of the tasty coffee is a nice touch. Well worth a visit!“

“Ordered the fish and shrimp platter and it came out in a box. The gut Buster in the box had the taste of day old grease and fries that appeared to have been soaked in water after being taken out of the day old grease. When the lady brought the bag to the table, I asked Ma'am is this the platter and she then replied load and proud Yeeeepppppp! Mind you, we paid aprox $70.00 for this heartburn and two drinks that tasted like over rated and highly sweetened suga water with a Lil color. Eat at your own risk and if you choose to do so make sure you have the anti acid pills close by along with some baby wipes to donate your platter to a better cause.“

“Stopped in with the hubby on the way to Maryland from Houston. We wanted to find a local place that was off the beaten path.We were thoroughly impressed with our meal. I had the fried porkchops with candied yams and potato salad. The porkchops were humongous compared to what I'm used to and they were fried perfectly. The candied yams and mashed potato salad were both addictive.The hubby had the seafood pasta, fried fish, and jambalaya. The pasta sauce was flavorful, but he was sad there wasn't more crab that was noticeable. However he did love the jambalaya and wished he had gotten a double helping of it instead of a salad.Definitely worth a visit for comfort food that's a great price for the portion size.“

“My husband and I tried this restaurant today while visiting NOLA. The atmosphere was laid back and the service was professional. The food was made to order. I’ve been vegan for about 6 months and I enjoy trying various vegan restaurants. I rate the food a 10 out of 10. The portion sizes are great for the price and everything on my plate was delicious. I had egg rollz, veggie rice, cabbage and jerk meatballs. Everything was seasoned to perfection! FYI there is a parking lot that is not even 1 minute away. Update: We went back for more food. This is the best Vegan spot in NOLA“

“I will never have a photo to post because the food is that good. Service is pleasant (but you can def tell when someone is having a bad day) and the food reminds me of my great grandmother. Not too salty just perfectly home cooked food. Eat the food, be happy, this is a cheat meal for those of us who have to pay attention to what we eat. It's worth it. For me, 1 plate is at least 2 meals“
