    Nice little cafe in the French Quarter. Good chicory coffee. Good service and friendly people. Food was just meh. Eggs came out with whites still not cooked. Sausage was probably authentic but had a texture I didn't care for (kind of like pate). Cheese grits were good though! And no beignets which made me sad.

    Because of our party size (6), brunch here was a 45 minute wait. They texted us when our table for 6 was available. We all were good and hungry by then. The food was delicious and the service was fast. Nothing extraordinary about the space. Simple and clean. That's top tier for me.

    Love the overall aesthetic of the two-story restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating (upstairs on the terrace). I fell into this spot after getting rejected at Brennan's as a potential walk in. Cafe Fleur De Lis was near closing time, but the staff still gave exceptional service. One of the servers overheard me mention a street vendor i wan ted to grab something from and actually saw the vendor while i was eating and i was able to go grab few things. I sincerely appreciate him. The food was very average breakfast food to be honest. My shrimp and grits weren't my favorite. I dislike cheesy grits and they add sour cream and cheese. My dirty chair was gross and I didn't finish it. This place only offers pork which is unfortunate.

    Crab cake Eggs Benedict and Cappuccino
    Elizabeth H.

    I stopped by Cafe Fleur De Lis on my last morning in NOLA. I'm really glad I did! There is a large bar with open seating so it's perfect if you don't have a reservation. I had a cappuccino and a crab cake eggs Benedict with grits. The crab cakes were flaky and crispy. The eggs were poached to perfection. The bar tender was cordial and chatting with guests while he made drinks and coffees. As a bonus, for anyone with an interest in Roman Catholic history, the building is the first residence of the Ursuline nuns when they immigrated from France in 1727

    The service was great. I do wish they used slab bacon on the po boy. It needs something meatier. They could also add more pickles and aioli. I would come back and try something else.

    Seafood Benedict and mango mimosa

    Absolutely the best brunch I've had my entire time here. The service the food omg so good so flavorful so big. Just a cute little down home greasy spoon place so good!

    Seafood Benedict
    Dar Z.

    Ate breakfast with couple friends and the service we received was outstanding. I ordered the seafood Benedict and it's the only reason for the 4 stars. The seafood part of it just didn't taste the freshest but everything else was great. Egg was poached perfectly and cheese grits were great. I think if I'd have ordered something else on the menu it would be 5 stars. Bloody Mary I got was also great along with the pickled okra and green beans that come with it.

    On the Friday before Mardi Gras, my lifelong friend and I have a tradition of going to breakfast before all of the shenanigans and walking parades kick off in the FQ. Our goal every year is to find somewhere new, and Cafe FDL definitely fit the bill this year. There is quaint seating on the first and second floor, and it feels like there's not going to be enough room, but the wait isn't bad. The service was quick and attentive, and the food was hot and filling. The alcohol was... alcohol. What's there to say about that? Price wise, it was reasonable, and it was filling enough that I wasn't hungry when I left, nor was I ill-prepared for any shenanigans that the say might bring. Definitely a solid choice for breakfast in the Quarter. Not fancy, but filling!

    Kinda touristy, but still solid. Clean and great service right in the French Quarter. I had the sampler meal, which hit the spot and was certainly mild (but great flavor!). It's a good spot to show someone the most basic of cajun/southern cuisine.

    Eggs Benedict with Hash browns
    Olivia C.

    Checked this place out for breakfast bright and early at 7am! Good option for the early morning. Service was quick and helpful. The inside gave a cozy diner feel to me. Lots of breakfast items looked tasty with a southern twist. I tried the eggs Benedict with hash browns and got a hot latte. The latte was super smooth and delicious. The eggs were poached perfectly and the hash browns were nice and crispy. The grits were really creamy and yummy too, just too heavy for me to finish it all. Solid breakfast options for early birds!

    We tried to walk-in to a couple of breakfast restaurants and we needed reservations for both. We kept walking and found this great place. The wait was only 20ish minutes. Once we were sat, our waitress was attentive and very friendly. She took our drink order quickly and kept refilling coffee. We both ordered seafood benedicts with a side of bacon. The bennys were absolutely delicious. The side of bacon was insane!! so much bacon! Definitely try this breakfast place in the FQ!

    The Bourbon Street Breakfast Platter comes with a shot of jack daniels. Super sweet. I wasn't a fan, but my husband loved it

    This spot was sooooo goood!!! Specially the grits, BEST grits of my life. It was sooooo good I went back a second time. I never eat at the same place twice on vacation unless I love it. We don't make reservations but they out our name down and sent us a text when our seats were ready. You have to check in within 5 mins of receiving the text message. We sat on the balcony with a nice little view of French Quarters. Our waitress was kind and helpful when it came to deciding what I wanted. I ordered: The Fleur de Lis omelette 5/5 Side of grits 10/5 Iced coffee 1/5 My husband ordered the Bourbon Street Breakfast Platter comes with a shot of jack daniels. Super sweet. I wasn't a fan, but my husband loved it. It was pecan and bananas pancakes. On our last morning we went back and each ordered the grits. We got a lot more to go for a side order. Came in a nice to go container. Overall, I'd be back! Until next time.

    Breakfast foods are always delicious, and I found this place on social media to try out during my NOLA stay. I got the eggs benedict, I just like eggs on the runnier side, but the egg just boiled. Nevertheless, everything was filling and satisfying!

    Fried eggs with cheesy Grits Bowl! Buttered biscuit.

    Is this restaurant able to seat large parties. Say around 20 people?

    I would think if you contact them in advance, it might be possible, they have an upstairs area, but that might completely fill the upstairs, so I dont know if it would be beneficial.

    Do they take reservations?

    No they don't.

    Does this business take reservations?

    No they don't

    Do they have WiFi?

    Yes.

    Gluten free beignets? Anyone? Anywhere?

    This would not be possible. You could deep fry some gluten free pastry or other but it would not be a beignets if it lack gluten. Gluten is the core of what makes a beignet a beignet.

    The good : The food…read morewas all just incredible. I did not realize what gnocchi was actually supposed to be like until I ate it in masterpiece form. The overall vibe/decor is dramatic and appealing. If you are a group of rich girls who are eating before they go out drinking or a dude trying hard to impress a date, this is the spot. The eh: It's $$$. I probably didn't look into this aspect well enough so my shock at the menu/check was probably on me. Portions are a bit confusing. Poutine was huge - like Mexican Nachos size huge. Hamburger also. But 2 deviled eggs, a tiny 9$ miniature loaf of bread were confusing in contrast. We had two mixed drinks. Gin and tonic was fine, but the 17$ espresso martini was hilariously undrinkably unpleasant. Less like espresso, more like donut shop coffee. Now, I love some indirect lighting. It creates interesting and compelling spaces with mood and a bit of mystery- But y'all - this is just the darkest restaurant (or lounge or whatever) I have ever eaten in. There is so little light that you literally cannot read the menu without using the flashlight on your phone. It is spelunking levels of darkness in there. I had to ask the server for more of the tiny tabletop candles just so we could see each other. The music is also very loud. Which would make sense if there was a dance floor or some reason for it. It is a place where what you do is drink and eat (in the dark) and talk to each other. The design of the restaurant itself seems at odds with the two things it aims to provide.

Walking in at 1:30 on a beautifully sunny Wed, we fully expected a wait. Instead, our two empty seats beckoned to us like a pretty girl winking at us across a bar in college. Marvin has been promoted to Beverage Manager. He left his bar in very good hands. The two young dudes carrying his torch were great. Very friendly and well aware each time we finished our drink and needed a reload. They're well-trained in the art of concocting the Sazerac we love. Sitting for 2 hours watching the regular turnover of the precious seats at the Carousel is still big fun. And having a friendly chat with the constant turnover of strangers sitting next to us is part of the unique charm of the Carousel Bar. As we were leaving Corey the bartender let us know management is shutting down next month for a few weeks for much needed repairs & renovations so the Carousel can add another 50-60 years to its legacy.

It rotates slowly, so you won't get dizzy... The cocktail list looked interesting, but the two we had tasted pretty standard, inline with what you'd expect from a hotel bar (it is inside Hotel Monteleone). There is a small bar bites menu - the Cubano was tasty but a bit overpriced at $18. The service was okay. We ended up getting water from our server that brought us food as the bartenders were too busy making cocktails. There was a jazz band playing on Thursday night when we visited.
