    Quinoa, Kale & Corn added steak
    Stephanie W.

    Walked in, ordered and was out in like 2 minutes. The staff were very friendly. They asked me if I wanted dressing light, medium or on the side. The steak was a perfect touch and I wonder if I could get it warmed up next time before adding it to the salad. I will be back to try another one of these! Delish

    Southwest salad
    Ryen B.

    Fine option for lunch delivery. They offer a variety of salads and wraps. Beet Street (beets, goat cheese, walnuts) and Southwest salads (black bean, corn, pepper jack) both have fresh greens, tasty dressing. Not fancy, but fresh.

    Custom Chicken Salad
    Tuhin C.

    The food at City Greens is fresh, healthy, and so clean. I've had their wraps before and I recommend the Thai Chicken Wrap or the Southwest Wrap. Most recently, I tried the custom salad option where you can pick and choose the ingredients you want. There are tons of different garnishes and dressings to choose from and I'm sure there is something on the menu that will satisfy anyone chooses to eat here.

    Rotten avocado

    Not so green City Greens. Paid $16 for a salad today and ALL the avocado was rotten. #disappointed

    Food menu: Salads
    Samir A.

    The food is fresh and tasty. The vegan options are: a) Vegan quinoa, kale, and corn salad (can be prepared as a wrap); b) Avocado Hummus wrap with Tofu (instead of chicken); c) Build Your Own (salad or Wrap); and d) Soup of the day (there's usually a vegan option). They have a stand of plain ice cold water, as well as ice cold water infused with fresh ingredients (mint, cucumber, etc.). I've had both the vegan quinoa, kale and corn salad (in a spinach wrap) as well as the Avocado Hummus wrap with Tofu. Both tasted excellent. I asked for light dressing (they have a few different vegan dressings). I've had their soup of the day twice. Both times it was tasty, and piping hot. I'm giving 3-stars because the food staff is not at all concerned with ingredient contamination. They touch all the ingredients with the same gloves. When tossing ingredients in a mixing bowl, ingredients will fall into neighboring containers. Mixing bowls are reused, though I can't tell whether they are washed or rinsed in between use or not. Tongs to mix the ingredients in the mixing bowl are also reused, and they are definitely not washed or rinsed because you can see them sitting in a container of water in between use. They don't clean the knife in between cutting wraps. If you have an allergy, or are otherwise very strict, you'll be disappointed. If you can live with the cross-contamination, you'll love the food.

    Come Early! Line is 10 deep at 11:11AM!  But it moves fast and most is take out, so there's seating at the 50 or so spaces.

    A HEALTH FOOD "TAQUERIA" all items prepared in front of you to order; ABOUT THE BEST VEGETARIANISH café in the Quarter/CBD. AFFORDABLE: all non-seasonal wraps & salads less than $10; Cup of soup $3! I've been on a search for fresh ingredient, healthy lunch options in the French Quarter/CBD. As you can imagine, most New Orleans restaurants serve foods either fried, slathered in cheese or cream sauces, wrapped in white bread or atop pasta, or laden with preservatives and sugar. Here are my findings for the 5 most notable: #1. The Best: "CARMO". There is really no way to go wrong at this open kitchen café. Unhealthy ingredients are replaced with interesting combinations of tropical spices, nuts, raisins, & fruit. And none of the large, filling salads are more than $9! #2. Close Second: "CITY GREENS". Sort of a high end, healthy gourmet "Subway" but not that much more expensive. All wraps & salads are less than $10, & items are made to order. #3. Faux-getarian: "BACK TO THE GARDEN". Although it claims to be vegetarian, 90% of all items include cheese, starches or dairy based condiments. But it's cheap, fast and items are customizable. #4. Price Gougers: "MEALS FROM THE HEART". Not really vegetarian, in fact besides the smoothies everything has cheese, eggs, and bread. The menu is inventive however, but pricey: $9 pancakes? $11 omelets? #1,000,000. Dead Last! "GREEN GODDESS". Probably the most true vegetarian options but it's also outrageously expensive: a $10 Wedge Salad?? And what's with the unhealthy cheese selection that's over half the menu? Note To Vegetarians: cheese is not healthy and much worse for you than lean meat!

    If you like $16 salads this is the place for you! Don't bother getting the build your own salad, every ingredient is an extra charge. As for the taste... the price was so unappealing to me that it tasted like cardboard

    Lena N.

    Such a nice place to grab a tasty, fresh, & healthy lunch!! Got the Thai chicken peanut wrap with a tomato tortilla and loved it :) The line can get pretty long around lunch time since it's in a pretty busy downtown area! Very quick service however and many selections of juices, salads, and wraps to choose from!!

    Bye Cobb!

    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.

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.

My favorite thing we got was definitely the veggie red beans and rice. It was very balanced and cooked well. I was very excited to try their shrimp and grits, but it wasn't that great. The grits were quite grainy and didn't taste cheesy as described. They weren't creamy at all and really tasted like plain barely salted grits that could have been cooked a bit longer. The shrimp was flavorful and the sear on the outside was nice, but they were quite overcooked and tough. There was a much higher ratio of grits to shrimp and gravy than you would want, especially given the grits were not that good. However, my husband absolutely loved the chicken pasta and said it was one of the best he has ever had. They definitely can make good food but I would skip the shrimp and grits. The lemonade I ordered was also incredibly watery. The service was efficient and good overall, but very impersonal and bare minimum. Definitely efficiency prioritized over true dinner service. Not bad but not what I expected.

The Apothecary was the cure. We grabbed seats mid bar and before we even finished settling in, there were waters waiting on the bar. That simple move already separated this place from the chaos outside. It's hospitality in its cleanest form: welcome in, take a breath, we got you. Inside is low light and old time apothecary mood, menus like a spellbook, but it's not gimmicky. The bartenders move like they've done the reps. Calm. Precise. No frantic showboating, no syrupy cover ups, no sloppy pours even with the parade energy banging on the door. We ordered two and they were both dead on. Alchemist Elixir: pea flower gin, elderflower liqueur, fresh lemon. It shows up pale violet with an orchid on the rim and yes it's pretty, but it's also disciplined.
