    We arrived around 11:30 a.m. on Saturday and were able to seat ourselves. They were already out of a lot of things by this time though. No milk for my matcha. No lemon for the tea. There was something else they were out of, but I can't recall what it was. The space wasn't very big, but tables turnover quickly. It's in the bottom of an office building so I was shocked to see a door for a law firm when I went to the restroom. It was clean and bright and they had a cute, floral accent wall for photo opportunities. I enjoyed my meal (stuffed French toast and seafood grits). I paid a little over $40. They are directly across the street from the Hyatt Regency which is where I was staying, so we walked.

    Fried catfish with grits
    Carolyn H.

    The ambience was very pleasant, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. I was surprised to all drinks served in plastic cups, including the coffee, which was warm, but not hot. I ordered the fried catfish with grits and really enjoyed the dish.

    Ultimate seafood and grits. No cheese
    Ree T.

    This was the best breakfast I had while in New Orleans. I had gone to a couple of places and just felt it was ok. This was hot and delicious. The service was wonderful. It's located in an office building. It feels newish and it's a family friendly environment. They check on you throughout the time to ensure you are satisfied. Definitely a must go to. They Only serve breakfast and lunch. It looks as good as it tastes.

    French toast and poboy that took an hour to get.
    Aaron C.

    It took an hour to get our food. When we checked after waiting 35 minutes it was obvious they forgot to put in our order and then lied about needing time to make the sauce for the French toast. We only ordered French toast and a shrimp poboy. Food was good but not worth the wait, zero apology, etc. So they get 1 star and no tip

    Fish and Grits

    Do Not Listen to the bad reviews. This place was good afffff! Everything was cooked to perfection, I only waited about 15-20 minutes and it was hot and good! I'm so in love this place I will be back. Thank you Zoe and Ms. Martha for the great hospitality.

    Philly cheesesteak
    Peter P.

    I stopped by the recently opened Bayou Belle Cafe to pick up lunch to go. Ordered the Ryan-burger and the Philly cheesesteak--both were delicious! The burger was juicy and flavorful, cooked just right, and the cheesesteak was packed with tender meat, melted cheese, and all the classic fixings without being overly greasy. The staff was nice and attentive. The atmosphere is clean and modern, with a fresh, inviting feel. Overall, great 1st time impression, solid spot with tasty comfort food.

Joel is professional and kind; He's full of personality and definitely knows his stuff!! I highly recommend having a reservation. We were seated immediately due to having a reservation.

She provided great service and awesome recommendations from drinks, apps and eats! Her personality was very pleasant and sweet. She was attentive but not overwhelming at all. Both Aurry and Joel contributed to the overall experience making it great. The FOOD was a HIT. Everything ordered was presented beautifully and delicious!!! The executive chef is definitely cooking very very well!!! We loved the Blue Crab Ragoon App as well as the Crab Cakes. There was nothing left on the plates. For entrées we had Banana Foster Pain Perdu, Side of Duck Bacon, Hashbrown, 100% Seafood Gumbo and Fried Catfish. Everything was seasoned to perfection and hot!!! Last but definitely not least are the Cocktails which were very good. Try the Cold Brew Martini if you like iced coffee type drinks and also try the Strawberry Lemon drop for a sweet treat. Both taste great and have a nice amount of spirits in them. This is a must try in NOLA. Will definitely return!!

I added hash browns and bacon. 4 pieces of bacon in a side order and it was nice and crispy. The hash browns were patty similar to the frozen kind you can buy, not sure if they came in a box frozen or not but they were served nice and crispy. The team were all very friendly and service was great. I probably wouldn't go out of my way for a return visit but wouldn't avoid eating here either

You have to wait in line to order/pay so depending on how difficult the group(s)/people(s) orders are ahead of you, will dictate how fast this process will go. The place is much bigger than I initially expected. There are 2 floors with seating. It would be hard to accommodate a large party but there's plenty of seating. I live the old 80's/90's theme and decor. Such a great throwback. We ordered 2 drip coffees (you get them in a to-go cups but you can get free refills), and the Grand Slam McMuffin. Both were great. Wish the sandwiches were bigger for the price you pay. $11.50 for a breakfast sandwich is pretty steep, but it's the price you pay considering everything is homemade. I would also like to point out that there is a discrepancy on the price of adding an egg. The menu says it's $2 more but we were charged $2.50. They should really update their menu or be upfront about it. Overall a great place to have a great breakfast. * Please note that you're not allowed to have someone save a table while another waits in line to order. You must order first before being allowed to take a table.

We opted for french toast, a side of grits, a side of bread, shrimp and grits and a mimosa. All the food and drink were great and fresh. We really enjoyed it. So much so we tried to come back the next day but they were closed. Definitely recommend for someone looking for good breakfast food for a low cost.

It's not a modern restaurant but it does give southern vibes. It was Essense festival so it was crowded! Small inside and not too many seatings. It's a popular place in MO so I'll have to try their shrimp and grits etc. -Marshay D.

We've been a huge fan of Chef Cook over the years and we're really sad to see this gem closing. We decided to share a bunch of small plates and split a main dish. I got the frozen espresso martini to start which was refreshing on a hot summer day. We got the house salad, oyster BLT, pork belly & watermelon, bowl of gumbo and my mom's chicken and dumplings. The gumbo was my favorite starter and it's really hard to share a bowl because you want it all to yourself! I really enjoyed the oyster BLT with the crunchy oysters and crispy pork belly pieces. The main of chicken and dumplings is the epitome of comfort food. The service was amazing and staff is attentive. The food came out pretty quickly but we weren't rushed. Before leaving we made another reservation for this upcoming weekend before we have to say goodbye for good.

We checked into our nearby hotel a bit early in the day and was looking to hit the streets for a spot to get a chill/light breakfast, a coffee and maybe a cocktail. We found all the things at Luzianne Cafe. Whether you belly up to the bar or grab a table, both of which are first come first serve, you start at the counter where you order, pay and grab your table number. It appears that during busy times they allow you to sit first and order from the QR at your table, this is an assumption given the code to order at the table, but the sign at the entry directed folks to the counter to order before sitting. For breakfast, we got the breakfast biscuit which came with eggs, bacon and cheese, and sided it with grits. The breakfast sandwich was solid, eggs were a bit soft and grits were more mealy than we are used to, but I think that may be authenticity of the area more than anything. I opted for the three option omelet with onion, sausage and gouda plus a side of sausage links. The omelet, though odd sounding combination turned out to be solid. Maybe it was my options, but it was decently "one note" in flavor. I tossed a little hot sauce on and that helped. However, while the sausage links were not much to look at, they were tasty, with a nice snap to the casing and meaty inside. To go with our breakfast, I got a cold brew with a splash of almond milk while my partner embraced NOLA and started his day with a bourbon sour. Both of us enjoyed our choices! Service was friendly and helpful at the counter/bar. The food runner was nice and then another member, assuming the Manager, that stopped by to check on us mid meal. She was super friendly and nice. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and drinks at Luzianne. Minor things noted, mainly on the cook of the eggs, but nothing awful. It his the spot and checked the boxes!

I went by their recommendations and got the boudin Benedict, since that's not something I would find outside of NOLA.
