    Calas

    We really enjoyed our visit to Calas Cafe. The cafe is located at the back of the African American history museum, which is a perfect location. The creator/host was the first to approach us when we walked back to the cafe, and he was amazing! He is such a great story teller and really gives a great history of African American women and the Calas. The Calases also tasted amazing! As someone who has to eat gluten free, I was so excited to try these. They are amazing when fresh and hot. I highly recommend. I also don't drink coffee, but I tasted my boyfriend's coffee, which was dairy free with dairy free creamer, and it was pretty good. I only wish I ordered some Calas to go and that I had a chance to visit the African American History Museum. I do plan to visit the museum next time I'm in town. I highly recommend the Calas, the coffee and the museum.

    I love this spot and the owner. Calas and coffee are ALWAYS perfection. The location directly in the heart of Treme transforms you. Expect a magical experience. Conversation with the locals and tourists is always delightful.

    Calas cafe!

    Best service ever - Calas were great! It was a little tough to find, but I'm glad we stopped by!

I ordered a vanilla matcha. It was one of the best matchas I've had. It wasn't a trendy matcha overloaded sweetener. It was earthy with the perfect dash of vanilla. I also had a blueberry muffin. It's an acquired taste as I'm used to eating pastries overloaded with sweetener. The muffin relied on the natural blueberries for sweetness, which was nice. +Customer service was amazing +Plenty of seating, perfect for work or socializing +Prices are average +Shop was clean and well stocked

If you are looking to avoid Starbucks or French Truck for your coffee fix and want something that is much locally based, Fourth Wall will fit the bill. The cold brew is wicked strong like much stronger than what I order normally at Starbucks. The iced London Fog lattes I discovered are premade, which overall my wife thought was alright, but she liked that they had gluten free blueberry muffins. The chocolate croissant was solid. The service was prompt and friendly. And the decor had a rustic ambiance with the brick walls, dark book shelving and garden patio in the back. The coffee bar has a hidden quality about it that is alluring and appealing. It was good to check out before we concluded our recent stay in NOLA.

    We had an absolutely exceptional dinner at Café Amélie tonight! With the recent rain, the usual…read morepotent French Quarter street smells were washed away, leaving the air beautifully fresh and the temperatures perfectly cool. Though pop-up showers were still lingering, my husband and I decided to take a gamble on courtyard dining--and I am so glad we did! Sheltered under the green umbrellas surrounded by historic brick walls, lush greenery, and rain-kissed citrus trees, the atmosphere was incredibly romantic and peaceful. The courtyard's intimate layout even brought a bit of extra magic to our evening. We sat near another wonderful couple (and their adorable daughter) and became fast friends, sharing laughs and conversation throughout the night. What truly anchored the experience, though, was the incredible service. The staff was remarkably personable, helpful, and welcoming. The dinner itself was excellent from start to finish, showcasing immense culinary skill across every dish. We started with the delicious brussels sprouts and a uniquely seasoned spring/summer gumbo that was unlike any version we've had before (oh, what I would give for the recipe). As for the entrées, the shrimp and grits were phenomenal, and the blackened catfish sandwich with a fresh salad was executed flawlessly...and the bread pudding was fantastic, too! It is rare to find an experience where top-tier hospitality, a breathtaking environment, and great food come together so (seemingly) effortlessly. Café Amélie is an absolute must-visit! We will be back.

    We were walking around open to going anywhere for dinner and it was fairly early for dinner. We…read morecame across Cafe Amelie and it looked cute inside and was able to get sat right away. The host was extremely welcoming and friendly. Our server and helpers were over quickly to drop off waters and greet us. I ended up ordered the salmon. With it being so early and only one or 2 other tables besides my friend and me, the food did take longer to come out than I expected it to. Both of us did thoroughly enjoy what we got. The salmon was crispy on the outside with a nice sauce over it. We thought we'd have time to get dessert so we ordered a couple but that too took a very long time. We finally waved down our server to cancel and get the check since we had to be somewhere and he apologized and said their WiFi was going in and out so it could be that it was registering on the kitchen side. That may have explained why our entrees took too long. If it wasn't for the service and the food being great - I would not be thrilled about timing. We got there around 5:30p and had to leave by 7:15p so an almost 2 hours experience that probably could have been 1 hour.

    Cafe Fleur de Lis was the perfect way to kick off our New Orleans trip. We'd visited years ago and…read moreloved it, so it was our very first stop this time around for breakfast/brunch and it didn't disappoint. The bourbon and pancakes breakfast is an absolute must-order. Honestly, everything our whole family ordered was delicious, and my kids loved it too. The staff was so friendly, and the location gives you a front-row seat to all the fun New Orleans atmosphere. We're already looking forward to coming back on our next trip!

We ordered an Avocado Bowl, and Biscuits and Gravy. They were both good! Nothing too special about them. Avocado bowl is more like a salad topped with avocado. Biscuits were soft and gravy was light! I am such a gravy girl. The service was good. Staff was friendly. We were sat immediately. Our busser was so sweet and nice. He was so fast to clear our dishes. However it did take a while to get our bill. The place is like a cute breakfast dinner. There was a second floor option, but we didn't get to explore because 2nd floor is outside and it was humid that day. In conclusion, a good breakfast spot. However, I much prefer the "Camp St." location over this one.
