Unfortunately, the food is no longer what it used to be. I became very ill after a recent order that included chicken, cabbage, and tea--an experience I can't overlook. I wanted to give a positive review out of respect, but I also feel a responsibility to be honest. The menu has changed significantly, and so has the quality of the food. While I appreciate that the meat is prepared separately from the main dishes, the overall quality just isn't there anymore. Regrettably, I won't be returning or recommending this place going forward."

I got the fried fish plate which came with two pieces of white bread, and sides of corn, Mac and cheese and potato salad. The fish was pretty good, but the Mac and cheese was just okay. It needed some seasoning to me. The potato salad was good, but not spectacular. The corn was good! The lemonade tasted like diabetes in a cup but was good. It's a takeout counter to order but they have a decent sized dining room through the side door. For a place that folks drive out of their way to, I wasn't blown away.

It's a family-owned, mom-and-pop shop, and I'm always happy to support local family-owned businesses. The location was clean, the staff was friendly, and our food came out quickly. Every bite was packed with flavor and tasted like it was made with love and care. I ordered the smothered chicken meal with a side of crawfish rice and mac & cheese, and WOW! The chicken was tender and flavorful, the crawfish rice was delicious, and the mac & cheese was the perfect comfort-food side. Everything tasted fresh, homemade, and full of that authentic Louisiana flavor. If you're looking for good Louisiana comfort food that tastes like it came straight from Grandma's kitchen, Mama Lu's Kitchen is definitely worth a visit! I'll definitely be back!

I've been to Louisiana twice now, and I've eaten at at least 10 different restaurants, and when I…read moretell you B Sweet Bistro is hands down the BEST restaurant I've been to in Louisiana... I mean it.THE BEST. Everything we had was SO, SO, SO good. I genuinely have no notes. My friend and I went around the time they had just opened, so there was nobody else there when we arrived. The space is small, intimate, and super cute. It's very aesthetic and cutesy, and they even carried that vibe into the bathroom. And when I tell you that bathroom smelled like strawberry pound cake?! So fitting for a sweets-focused spot. We took an Uber there, and on the way we asked our Uber driver if he knew anything about B Sweet Bistro. He told us he was vegan, so he hadn't actually eaten there, but he said the fact that she had been in that same space for years spoke volumes about the business. If I remember correctly, she was celebrating five years around the time we went. And after eating there ourselves, I completely understood why she's been there so long. THE FOOD IS AMAZING. We also met Chef B herself. She came over to our table, told us about the menu, checked on us, and asked how we were enjoying everything. The customer service was great. No complaints whatsoever. And we ordered A LOT for two people. We split everything and got: * Seafood beignets * Banana Foster beignets * Sweet potato beignets * Catfish Mardi Gras * Gumbo And again... EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS. Seafood Beignets A MUST GET. You could actually taste everything that was in them. The seafood didn't get lost, and the whole thing was just so flavorful and delicious. I would absolutely order these again. Banana Foster Beignets These were probably my favorite of the sweet beignets. The sweet potato beignets were also really good, but I preferred the banana ones. Now, here's where we messed up. They told us that you could add ice cream to the Banana Foster beignets for an additional charge. We passed because we had already ordered SO much food. We were like, "We already have two sweets. We don't need ice cream." WRONG. Not because the beignets needed the ice cream, they were literally amazing without it. But after we ate them, we were sitting there thinking about how much better they could've been with ice cream. Basically, we could've taken a 10 to a 20 with ice cream. But you absolutely do NOT need the ice cream. They were delicious on their own. We just regretted not trying it because we knew it was an option. Sweet Potato Beignets Also delicious! I just personally preferred the Banana Foster ones, but both were really good. Catfish Mardi Gras This was probably the only little issue we had, and honestly, it wasn't even really an issue with the food itself. The menu said the Catfish Mardi Gras came with grits, and my friend and I are BIG grit people. So when we ordered it, we were expecting grits. When it came out, though, it came with rice. We were told that it normally comes with rice and that the grits were more of a newer thing. But since the menu said grits, we obviously thought we were getting grits. That being said... WE STILL TORE IT UP. The catfish was delicious. The rice was delicious. The entire dish was delicious. We would've preferred the grits because that's what we thought we were ordering, but we honestly didn't care enough to make a big deal about it because the food was THAT good. If you specifically want the grits, I would just confirm what side you're getting when you order. Gumbo DELICIOUS. This was the best gumbo I had in New Orleans. I absolutely tore it up. Everything about it was good. They also have prepared sweets and treats that you can come in and grab, and our food didn't take long to come out either. Honestly, I HAVE NO NOTES. The biggest thing I regret about this restaurant is that I didn't go back a second time before leaving New Orleans. Normally, when I'm visiting somewhere, I don't like going to the same restaurant over and over because there are so many places I want to try. But B Sweet Bistro is one of those places where I left thinking, "I really should've gone back." At this point, if I could DoorDash this food to Virginia right now, I WOULD. When I go back to New Orleans, B Sweet Bistro is my FIRST STOP. And honestly, I already know I'm probably going to end up there more than once on my next trip because that's how good this place was. I could genuinely eat here every day. And don't judge the lack of good food pictures. I was too busy enjoying my food to take better pics. I recommend going in person to see the presentation and enjoying a good meal for yourself.
