Waited 1.5 hours to be seated. Waited another 15 minutes to be waited on . Waited another 30-45 minutes for food. The scenery is great. The customer service is absolutely unacceptable. Observed some people be seated after us and get their food quicker than we did. I don’t think I’ll be returning. Highly disappointed. Only drink options available was lemonade and water. Order came out incorrect!!
We ate dinner with friends at Orlandeaux’s for the first time! 10 out of 10 we will absolutely be back. The food was fantastic. The staff were welcoming and our waitress was truly the best. It’s a great family environment with amazing food.
Arrived at 4:15 & was given a 45 minute wait time by the host. After waiting a little over an hour, we went back to the host stand and was informed that the older gentleman who was there at first, told us the wrong time, and we now had another hour wait time. The new hostess was rude & had a very nasty attitude, like it was our fault they made a mistake, so we left. Try to support black business but am always reminded why it doesn't work. On to the next.

Orlandeaux's Café is a beloved restaurant known for its authentic southern cuisine. Locals recommend it for delicious dishes like gumbo, cornbread, boudin balls, beignets, Stuff shrimp, and shrimp and grits, which are often described as amazing. The café is situated by a lake, providing a lovely view while waiting for a table. Although there might be a wait, as some reviewers mentioned, the atmosphere and food make it worthwhile. One customer noted that they enjoyed the takeout food even when there was an issue with being notified when their table was ready. The restaurant is family-owned and has a long history, with food that remains just as good as it was at the original location. Reviewers praise the fantastic staff, including kind servers and bartenders, and many express their intention to return, even suggesting that newcomers stay on the waitlist. While some noted the need for improvements in parking and flooring, the overall consensus remains that Orlandeaux's Café is a go-to place for amazing food and good down-home Louisiana cooking. The café fills up quickly, so arriving early is recommended to enjoy local specialties in a nice location with views of Cross Lake Bridge.
