My husband and I entered. and The lady looked and continue to talk and then when she got up, she walked to a table and put the menu on the table and said we can sit there overall staff was rude, The chicken was dry it was re-cooked. And the waffles were thick. You have to put a lot of syrup in order for it to taste good the lady said it was no cinnamon in the waffles but you can definitely taste it read more

It was late and Daisy Mae's was one of the only places that was open and close by. A group of us were starving...so this is where we ended up and we left satisified. I had a belgian waffle and eggs..and it was perfect and hit the spot. The waitress, can't remember her name, but it almost sounded like Daisy Mae, but it was different...began with a "D"...Marie? Anyway she was impressive...this is the second waitress we met during our stay that didn't write anything down...and got the order correct and there were four of us...with complicated stuff going on....she got it right...so just for that alone....warrants ALL the stars! The food was great, everyone was happy! read more

This spot was within an arms reach from my hotel and boy did I luck up. Everything i ordered was amazing. They were always busy but the food comes out pretty quick so the wait didn't seem that bad. You can also skip past the line and head right to the bar or grab it to go. It's not all that big inside FYI + they fit a good amount of tables in the space so just something to consider. Don't even bother calling. They never pick up. read more

Stopped in for breakfast during our trip to New Orleans. This was by far my favorite place to eat during our visit. The southern fried chicken is EXCELLENT! It has a great seasoning with a slight kick to it. The waffles were nice and fluffy, the bacon also very tasty. The biscuits and gravy were good. The staff was friendly, the restaurant was clean. Prices reasonable. If you're ever in New Orleans, make sure to stop in at Daisy Mae's, you won't be disappointed. read more

The food came out hot but I didn't think the chicken was anything spectacular. My chicken leg was good but the thigh meat tasted almost... Like old meat. The fries were delicious and the biscuit was heavenly. read more

Went here twice on our first and last days of the trip because it was so great the first time and conveniently located across the street from our hotel. There isn't anything special about the decor and you may even pass this on the street if you're not paying attention and looking for it. Upon arrival I thought we'd get subpar food that wouldn't be memorable but I was definitely wrong. The first day I ordered chicken and waffles (unfortunately not pictured). I don't have much to say except for that it was simple amazing! The waffle was crispy but not burnt. The chicken was seasoned to protection!!!! And not just the seasoning on the skin, which was crispy and practically had no fat (a major plus)! And I got pineapple juice that was actually really good too. Because this food was so good, we came back for more a second time! For our second experience we ordered to split the catfish po'boy combo that comes with a side of gumbo, and chicken and waffles because why not! Everything AGAIN was amazing! The cat fish was lightly breaded and seasoned well. The gumbo was also very good making it to the top two gumbos we had on the trip. And chicken and waffles as already mentioned were amazing..again! I can honestly say that I can make this a stable for my New Orleans trip because the food was so good! The service on day one wasn't the best and chicken takes 20 minutes (as reported on the menu) to make but the food was worth the wait! read more

I visited this restaurant for a Christmas trip. The food tasted awesome, but I did not appreciate the additional 3.1 percent charge for paying credit cards. It is illegal for a business to ask customers to pay for credit card usage. Thankfully I reported the overcharge to my credit card company. read more

RAT INFESTED. I dined here this afternoon for lunch when the restaurant was not too busy. Could not finish my food because there were literally 3 rats running around the dining room. One ran under our table and ate scraps under the table beside us. How are you operating with a rat infestation?!?!!! Absolutely disgusted. Zero stars if I could. read more

Yum! We loved everything we ate here! Now I know why the place was so packed. I wholeheartedly recommend that you check this spot out! read more

I don't usually write reviews on restaurants I did not enjoy but I truly did not enjoy the food here, the table was dirty and sticky , I watched the servers clear the tables and not wipe down the table before sitting the next customer, saw this happen three times. My food was served warm almost too cool, it tasted okay, the biscuit was hard , my overall experience not good. I'm a tourist , this is one place I would never recommend. Clean your tables before sitting your customers! No one wants to eat in a dirty table, I did! read more

The breakfast omelettes are great! I recommend the alligator or Cajun. Both are filled with plenty of meat.

Y'all....this might be some of the best fried chicken I have ever had and I live in Ga!! My husband liked the chicken breast. I also loved the wheat toast...who raves about toast...try and see for yourself! The servers are also very kind and polite, Genevieve was the best! read more

This is a small, narrow restaurant close to everything. I had hot sausage po boy and red beans and rice. I loved the red beans, nice kick to it. I ate the hot sausage and left the bread - couldn't figure out how to make the sandwich work. Great service, great food. Would go again. read more

We order a chicken dish and we're told those take about 20min. We got our food nearly 45 min later! Numerous people came and went during that time. The food was OK but the delayed service made the experience on the whole very disappointing. read more

We visited Daisy Mae's for lunch on 7/7 in New Orleans, LA. This restaurant was a quick walk from our hotel and was able to accommodate our family group of 10 easily. The food and the service were awesome. I would highly recommend this restaurant to everyone that visits the New Orleans area! read more

Looking for AMAZING Fried Chicken? This restaurant 's fried chicken recipe is a BOOM!!! Plus, Malik has provided the best service! First meal in New Orleans! One word: Satisfied! We're not only so happy to find this restaurant that opens 24/7 daily, but also same on Christmas eve! We've been on the plane the whole day, didn't have any time to have proper meal. So we ordered 5 pieces of Fried Chicken with biscuits and fries, plus another biscuits with gravy at almost 1am!! Didn't expect the portion of dish is pretty big, we were afraid we couldn't finish them, but surprisingly, the fried chicken is so yummy! Crispy outside, super juicy inside! It's better than any of fired chicken place I have tried so far in California!! The fried chicken took a little bit long, but it's worth the wait! Must try the fried chicken or chicken and waffles!! You won't regret! read more

Food was great! Service was better! Bloody Mary outstanding! Delightful Ambiance! Highly recommend!

All the food tasted burnt, dry and hard. There's also not a lot of ambiance and the table kept shaking back and forth as we dined. I'm shocked this place has any acclaim. read more

Great place to grab some breakfast food near the CBD which is perfect for us. I had an omelet and some grilled chicken tossed in buffalo sauce, which was not on the menu but they were more than happy to accommodate my request when I realized that the menu was limited due to the large event taking place in the city at the time. We enjoyed and will certainly be back. read more

A nice cheap spot for great fried chicken! It takes 20 mins for the chicken to come out but it's crispy and well seasoned.

The service was great and Mohamed really treated us with care! I will definitely come back again!

Ordered half poboy and gumbo and highly disappointed. Gumbo lacked flavor, might as well eaten out of a can. The po boy had no sauce and I was given a dirty look when I asked for either remoulade or Mayo. All the employees here looked miserable and the food was terrible, definitely will not be returning. read more

OMG this place is delicious! It was our first time in New Orleans and we scheduled an 8am swamp tour so we went on yelp to see which places were open nearby for breakfast before the tour. We arrived when they opened at 7 am. The waitress was super friendly. She let us know that it would take a while for any fried chicken plates because the fryer had to heat up first. Of course my husband and I both ordered plates which included fried chicken. We were done with our meal and out of there by 7:50 am just enough time to make it to the tour. The food was amazing. We told everyone back home to check out this place for some delicious fried chicken if they are ever in New Orleans. read more

Daisy Mae’s - The chicken and waffle breakfast sandwich was amazing!!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

I was trying to decide between three stars or four and went with three just because the fried chicken was delicious, hit, fresh, and super crunchy but everything else was nothing special AT ALL. Funny thing is we went for the chicken, great reviews on yelp for the chicken, and as soon as we walk in a lady is leaving out and tells us "Do Not Order The Chicken". Yea, glad we didn't listen there. We ordered the chicken and greens with red beans and rice and gumbo. The waiter came back and said they didn't have greens available, so we went with fries. We also ordered a bloody mary because we wanted to try it (never had it before) and this place was voted best bloody mary 4 years in a row! After having it, its not for me (definitely an aquired taste). The rice and beans was okay, and my husband said the gumbo was good. The chicken came out with the fries and the fries were cold. read more

Daisy Mae’s - Reward!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Got here at 745am. Menu has breakfast special only available 7am-8am daily but waiter says that in Tuesday and Wednesday they don't offer food until 8am. Huh? When I asked for a to-go cup for the coffee he had already prepared, he said he'd ask if the kitchen was ready. Turns out they were. Ordered eggs, bacon, hashbrowns and biscuit. The eggs were inedible - some of the worst I've ever had. Bacon was crispy, but a little oily. Hasbrowns and biscuit were ok. read more

Food was good, service fairly fast. Minor thing that I had to ask for napkins. Certainly have had better chicken and waffles, but delivered pretty well. (all time fav, bizarrely, is Pints & Quarts in Muskegon, MI, btw, second is Heaven on Seven, in Chicago area, only serve at Naperville location). Wish they had more hot sauces to pick from. They only had one on table (to be fair, I didn't ask if they had others. Friendly staff. Pretty basic bar, nothing special about ambiance. On Poydras St. walked right in with absolutely no way on Saturday morning so that was certainly nice. All said, probably worth checking out read more

Breakfast is okay; lunch/ dinner is horrible! Everything tastes like they just put obey on it. The gumbo was disgusting. The waitress was a doll, and the food was awful. read more

The food was delicious. The wait time was about 10 minutes at that was at 1130/1200 ish The only reason i give this place 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the service. It took our server a while to get the things we needed and it was not that busy. The waffle is very good. I did not like the bacon. The chicken was good, could've been better if it wasn't really crunchy. Their sweet tea is good as well! read more

Gets good reviews and recommendations from Hotel and Uber driver. However, food is sub par. Chicken was Dry, biscuits and gravy were cold and gravy was bland. Overall, 5 different meals and everyone was disappointed. Bring Cash, they charge 3.5 % extra for Credit Card. Don't ask to split checks. To many options to eat here. Overall, disappointed. read more
