“Came here before our swamp tour & I'm SOOOO glad I did! Had the best Gumbolaya in my life. Had I known it was going to taste that great I would have ordered the large bowl. Highly recommend it as it was the best food we ate during our NOLA trip“

“I love donuts, I love donuts so much I had a dog named donut. Since I was a child going for donuts and coffee has been a favorite family outing. As I've gotten older I've stopped eating them as often because of how decadent donuts can be. Today was my first time eating donuts from Joe's and these were perfect! Although they were decadent they were not over done. The balance of donut to filings was perfect and did not over saturate my palate. Even my husband who can usually only eat one donut had 3. We also got the French fries which were delicious and well seasoned as well as the biscuits and gravy. The biscuits were fluffy, flaky and everything you'd want from a biscuit. The sausage gravy was perfectly seasoned and had big chunks of sausage which we LOVED! All the staff we encountered were very friendly and patient especially with my extra wild toddler running amok. Loren at the counter is an absolute delight! Thank you all, we'll be back, especially for the breakfast served all day!“

“Always delicious. The onion rings are outstanding. I had the fried shrimp wrap slathered in Buffalo sauce. It was fantastic. Depending on the day, be sure to bring long sleeves in this place. It's quite cold. Hey, that's not necessarily a bad thing. ;)“

“We are from the NY / CT area and vacationing in New Orleans. Tonight we decided to try Stella Maris as it was close to where we are staying. What an amazing treat! We were greeted by an incredibly gracious waitstaff. We followed her menu recommendations and we could not have been more pleased. The Stella Maris Special appetizer (baba ganuj, hummus, falafel, roasted eggplant, stuffed grape leaves, tabouleh), the lebanese spinach cheese roll, and the baklava were among the best that we have eaten … and we have tried middle eastern cuisine in many cities and states over many years. During our stay in New Orleans, we ate at several highly rated places in foodie articles … and Stella Maris ranks among the best meal that we had. Our only regret is our scarce opportunity to return to this place again. If you have an opportunity to dine here, do not let it pass by!“

“The Ruby Slipper is a delightful restaurant known for its delicious breakfast and brunch offerings. The cozy atmosphere and friendly service make it a great spot to start your day. Their menu features a variety of classic dishes with a creative twist, such as the Eggs Cochon, which is a unique take on eggs Benedict with slow-cooked pork debris. The Bananas Foster Pain Perdu is another standout, featuring thick-cut French toast topped with caramelized bananas and rum sauce. Overall, The Ruby Slipper is a must-visit for anyone looking for a memorable breakfast or brunch experience.“

“I was in Tremé for four days, and I ate and drank coffee at Fatmas each and every single one of those days. The coffee was amazing. The food was delicious and their pastries were just beautiful. I loved the atmosphere and the outside seating. There’s even a couple of open windows where you can just stand and look out and feel the breeze while you’re waiting for your food. I wish that I lived closer so that I could go there every day.“
