Went here yesterday for brunch and everything was so delicious! All the staff was nice and able to accommodate my large party and Jess our server was so fun and gave good recommendations I really enjoyed the catfish grits and the fried green tomatoes!

Jazmine C was a delightful server on my last morning here in NOLA! What a real gem of a restaurant this place is! The food was incredible and tasty. I had the avocado toast, grits w/cheese, and a biscuit. I don't know what dish was the best because they were all SO good and authentic. I highly recommend this place for breakfast in NOLA! Thanks Ruby Slipper!

This is a very popular brunch chain with multiple locations throughout New Orleans. I ordered the corned beef hash Eggs Benedict, and it was delicious. The portion was huge—I ended up with leftovers. The leftovers, though, were very salty. I also tried the beet coconut juice concoction, which I didn’t really care for. Overall, a tasty meal with generous portions, but just be aware that it can be a bit salty, especially the next day.

Bang on eats! We started off with the fried green tomatoes and pig candy bacon bites! Followed by the trifecta which was absolutely delicious! For drinks we had a boozy iced coffee and Creamy Vanilla spiced Latte! Would recommend. Make reservations as it was busy but again it was the day after Mardi Gras

A favorite of ours in New Orleans. It’s never too busy that we are waiting long. The mimosas are 99% champagne and 1% juice, not complaining! You can’t miss with the eggs Benedict. A staple to New Orleans culture. Only downside is that this location is always a little sticky floor and surface wise
