My lady and I got recommended this by a cool local guy we met at mojo coffee shop. Got the fried egg banh mi sandwhich. Sandwhich was delicious very flavorful and a cool unique take on a breakfast sandwich. Also got the beignets with raspberry jam. The beignets were delicious one was a little burnt and they weren’t quite as good as the cafe du monde but the raspberry jam more than made up for that. The food was amazing loved all of it
I ate here 3x during my stay it was THAT good. Pictures to show the beautiful plating and plump servings. Huge fan of the spring rolls. Both the shrimp and the chicken ones. Pho was phenomenally made and a masterful serving size. Come hungry! Leave happy bellied! Tidbit: the ginger tonic tea… superb. Seriously some of the best I’ve had. Ask for the pot, not just a cup. Add honey for more sweetness if you’d like. I seriously was obsessed with this tea!!
Cute little spot outside of the hotel with a lovely outdoor seating area garden style, including heat lamps for the cold. Really tasty croissant beignets were yummy to try with a jam like dipping sauce. Just a little crispy and dry. But the cocktail was delicious French 1501.
Very good King Cake (one of the best King Cakes I've had in NOLA), but disappointing Bahn Mi and OK beignets. The King cake (5/5) was lovely - flaky with a crossiant like crust/dough and a lovely cinnamon cream cheese filling that was cheesy and filling. Genuinely one of the best ones I've had out of the 8+ I've tried. The Oyster Bahn Mi (3/5) had food flavor but almost all the oysters had an extremely inedible chewy portion and the carrot daikon slaw wasn't seasoned. The bread is also okay (a bit hard to chew) but the flavors of the sauce and black lemon were very good - shame. Beignets (3/5) were good but very dense inside and a few of them were burnt. For the price and the ambiance (you serve yourself), I guess its okay. There's mostly outdoor seating.
Came here after the world war 2 museum since we were craving Vietnamese food for our last meal. The pics look good, so we thought to give it a try. The fried shrimp banh mi was really good here. Never had that style before, and I liked it. A lot of different textured and great flavors. The chili oil wontons were good too. The cafe is really cute and a nice place for a date or to hang out with friends. The patio is charming and shaded so great for any day.
