All of the dishes were delicious but I particularly recommend the Crab Cakes and the Shrimp & Chicken Etouffee. I had initially thought about catering the party myself but NOLA Girl's cooking is better than mine and has genuine cajun flair and flavor. Costs are competitive relative to the other caterers we considered; communication was excellent and food delivery was very prompt. Finally, the dishes are generously sized and we loved the left-overs! THANK YOU!

Then followed a seated dinner that was absolutely phenomenal, we were all blown away. The dishes were simplistic with stunning plating but had a great deal of flavor.

Now onto the food. I got the 3 Meat Plate with Brisket, Ribs, and Pulled Pork. I've been smoking and eating Texas style meats for 25+ years, so I'm a bit of an admitted BBQ snob. The brisket was cooked perfectly. Not overwhelmingly Smokey, very tender, and still juicy. The ribs were a bit of a disappointment since they were overcooked and had a leathery texture. The flavor was incredible, just the texture was off. I wasn't upset though...it happens. The Pulled Pork was still very moist and easy to eat. The sides were very good also. The Beef Fat Tater Tots had a great texture and a Smokey flavor that I suspect came from a paprika based spice blend on them. The potato salad had great texture, but was very onion forward, so be aware if that is not your thing. My wife got the brisket plate, but got the lean cut from the flat of the brisket. It was still tender and moist. Her Roasted Garlic Mac-n-Cheese and Brussel Sprout sides gave me envy...they were both absolutely delicious! This place also has unique BBQ sauces. They have a house sauce which is a sweet sauce much like you might buy of any grocery store shelf, but better. They also had a Carolina style and a Jerk style BBQ sauce, which ended up being my favorite and was an unexpected surprise. It was a perfect companion for the pulled pork in particular. I gave the entire experience a 4 out of 5. Very solid lunch option. If you're in N.O. and aren't looking for seafood...give them a try.

I put some feelers out on ThumbTack and I was so very lucky to have Justin from Toulouse Gourmet respond to my request. I needed food for about 50 people for a luncheon. When Tiffany arrived with the food, I was so nervous because it didn't seem like it was going to be enough food. But once we opened the trays, the food just kept coming! I honestly was reminded of the story of the loaves and fishes. And it was all DELICIOUS! Everyone raved about the jambalaya. I think it might have been my favorite since getting here. Anyway..... Fast forward a few months and I needed a caterer again, but this time for heavy appetizers for an evening event for 150 people. Justin gave me a terrific estimate that I was very comfortable with. Tiffany once again delivered the food right on time and helped me set up. They also provided disposable plates and forks and napkins and serving utensils. The food was OUTSTANDING! Andouille Puffs, teriyaki meatballs, hummus and pita.....all of the food was delicious. The entire party couldn't stop talking about the food. And the doberge mini cakes??? Ridiculous. So good!!

They even consulted with sanitation experts and implemented procedures to keep their team and our food safe. All you have to do is place your order online through their link, tell them which day you want your food items delivered, and when in route they will contact you to let you know. They have so many delicious options on their menu, you can choose from their family dinner specials which feeds up to four people or you can choose from their kitchen essentials collection. I got a mixture of both, and they did not disappoint. Every week I was looking to see what they added to their menu, if you are a true foodie like me then you understand. From the pulled pork Cochon de Lait with mac n cheese, to the chicken and andouille gumbo everything was packed with so much flavor. Hands down they have the best hot spinach dip I have ever tried, so rich. Let's not forget about dessert, the brownies were so fudgy, I put them in the microwave for about fifteen seconds and they literally melted in my mouth.

My experience with Chez Nous was disappointing, particularly given the importance of the occasion…read moreand the expectations I had based on the restaurant's reputation. I was referred to Chez Nous by a friend from New Orleans when I was looking for a caterer for my son's medical school graduation celebration. We expected about 30 guests, most of whom were coming from out of town and were excited to experience New Orleans food. The initial communication with the owner was good. I received an extensive menu, reviewed the options with my son, who considers himself a "foodie," and we ultimately agreed on a menu that included tea sandwiches, smothered turnip greens, grillades, cheese grits, baked brie, bourbon-and-brown-sugar ham with buttermilk biscuits, hummingbird cake, and spinach salad. A couple of months before the celebration, my brother and his wife joined me in New Orleans for Match Day. While we were there, we stopped by Chez Nous to introduce ourselves and make sure everything was on track. Unfortunately, the reception by Ben, the owner was very cold and made us feel as though we were intruding rather than welcome guests. I chose to give the owner the benefit of the doubt and assumed it was simply a bad day. With the graduation only about 45 days away, I also decided not to start over with another caterer. We confirmed delivery for May 16, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. On the day of the celebration, I had someone at the house by noon to receive the food. The caterer actually arrived around 1:00 p.m., which was earlier than expected, and I appreciated that. Unfortunately, the food itself was a major disappointment. Several dishes--including the greens, grillades, and cheese grits--were excessively salty. The tea sandwiches and biscuits were dry. The baked brie with fresh fruit was good, but the spinach salad was not prepared as requested. I specifically asked for the feta to be served on the side because we had a vegan guest, but the feta was mixed throughout the salad. The biggest disappointment was the hummingbird cake. It was essentially inedible. The cake appeared to be a sheet cake with an extremely thick layer of icing, while the cake itself was so soggy that it appeared underbaked. No one ate it, and we ultimately had to throw it away the following day. After the celebration, I contacted the owner to express my concerns about the quality of the food. I never received a response. I also found it surprising that no one from Chez Nous followed up afterward to ask how the food or service had been. Given that this was an important milestone for my son and a significant catering order, I expected at least some acknowledgment or concern when I expressed my dissatisfaction. I recognize that every business can have an off day, and I generally try to give people the benefit of the doubt. I was also particularly surprised by my experience because Chez Nous has many positive reviews. Unfortunately, my experience did not live up to those expectations. I will give three stars solely because the food arrived earlier than the agreed-upon delivery time. However, the quality of much of the food, the failure to accommodate the dietary request, the disappointing cake, and most importantly, the lack of any response to my concerns left me very disappointed. This was supposed to be a memorable celebration of my son's tremendous accomplishment. I wanted to provide our family and guests with a wonderful New Orleans culinary experience. Sadly, the catering experience became one of the few negative aspects of an otherwise wonderful graduation weekend.
