Food was very mediocre and one of our meals came out early and the other one came out when the first person was almost done with their meal. They need to time their meals better. One of the meals was almost inedible due to the level of heat spicy and then the salad. The Caesar salad had way too much dressing. It was almost soggy read more

I believe I had the French Market breakfast plate, which came with eggs, ham, a biscuit , and grits. Everything was very tasty, and I was happy I stopped here to eat breakfast, but what stood out the most out of my breakfast was the grits. OMG, the grits blew my mind. The grits were amazing!!! It was so good that it made my whole day. So happy I stopped here and I highly recommend you do the same. I came here with my wife and she had the grits with the shrimps on top that had some kind of cream over the grits I forget the name of the plate but she liked it a lot. I couldn't try it due to my allergic reaction to shrimp but I take her word for it and she enjoyed her meal as well. When we come back to New Orleans I will be trying lunch and/or diner here and I can't wait. We ate outside and it was a great atmosphere here and on top of everything we had a really friendly waitress. Definitely a must try. read more

Best fried green tomatoes (circled in red on the menu)! Crispy and tasty. The charbroiled oysters were okay, but I think I prefer the tomatoes. read more

After our tragic experience at PJ's in the New Orleans airport terminal, my wife and I wandered down to our gate with maybe 20 minutes to spare before we boarded. Lo and behold, near our gate was French Market Cafe & Bar, and they were selling beignets. Ok, I thought -- why not give them a try? I placed an order and then waited a little bit. Several other people who had placed orders before me were also waiting. Within just a couple minutes, the woman behind the register proceeded to drop a bunch of uncooked beignets into a fryer on the counter, and they started their transformation -- quickly expanding into those puffed-up globes of dough we were all waiting for. When the beignets were done, the woman put three in each of the waiting paper lunch sacks, then dumped a scoop of powdered sugar onto the hot beignets -- instantly commencing the melting process. I didn't expect much in the way of food at the New Orleans airport (hopefully the new terminal will be much better), but these beignets were very good. Not up to Cafe du Monde standards, but not all that far off. Perfect way to end a wonderful long weekend in New Orleans! read more

Pretty good. May not be Café Du Monde but it definitely will fulfill that beignet craving before leaving NOLA. read more

Best beignets of our trip- warm, puffy and layered. Other well known ones in the city were cold and doughy. read more

French Market Cafe & Bar - Best beignets! They are fresh- puffy and layered inside. Other well known places in the city served them cold and doughy. - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Kenner, Louisiana

Omg. Their beignet is so yummy. One of a kind. It like a croissant and donut in one. Actually it like a cronuts! Addicted and for the cost it really a good price for how big they are. It only I can get them without having to make a trip to the airport to leave out of town. read more

Really different than any beignet I've ever had. Its clearly pastry dough (flakey) and its all layered inside. It tasted quite good but UNFORTUNATELY IT WAS BARELY WARM!!! Such a bummer. Also the sign advertises "stuffed beignets" which I was curious to try but they've discontinued it! She also gave it to us in a bag without asking if we wanted it to go. We sat and ate in there anyway. read more

Under NO circumstances should you even attempt to eat upstairs outside on the patio or bar area! Hands down the worst dining/server/busboy/ etc...communication. Could not get anyone to seat us, serve us. Clean up, no beer on tap, etc... downstairs looked to be much better !!! read more

You don't have many options at this airport in New Orleans, but if you do get a few minutes waiting for your flight, the French market café does have some pretty good pastries. Of course, the powdered sugar covered beignets are the big attraction. So, if you forget to get your beingnets down at Cafe du Monde in the French Quarter, you have a second chance here at the airport :-) read more

We stopped by the French Market while looking for a place to drink after a Grey Line swamp tour. My husband and I were blown away by the delicious food. We both had a sazerac to drink, and the gumbo as an appetizer. If you love okra-based gumbo, this one is sure to please. My husband had the jambalaya. It was made with dirty, included savory ground beef and was rich in flavor. I had red beans and rice with a side if fried catfish. Wow. The catfish was light and tender with a perfectly fried breading crust. The beans had a nice smokey flavor that came from either a roux or the sausage that was cooked with the beans. I strongly recommend this restaurant! read more

When we asked for the manager to complain about the slow AND rude service our waiter then claimed to be the manager. Imagine our surprise when the actual manager showed and our waiter proved to be incompetent AND a liar. Will not patronage any establishment which condones lying. read more

Pretty darn good example of beignets! They come 3 to a serving. About $3.50 for 1 order. Unexpected flakiness which I liked. Server didn't acknowledge us til after washing the dishes although there were no other customers in the place at all. Cooked fresh while I waited and gave to me in a to go box. I recommend this place. read more

Best Beignets ever! Way better than Cafe du Mundo They may have good a long time ago, but their dough was heavy and dense. The French Mkt was just like I expected them to be. Light, airy, eggy... still fried , but yummy. Thank you Loma for changing my mind about this traditionally pastry, love them! read more

No service worst place I've ever been in any airport in the world. One person working and she said to go somewhere else she was busy. Why have a place and not staff it? read more

The beignets here are so warm and tasty. The service I received today was absolutely great. Paola did an amazing job with my order, her customer service makes this place feel very inviting! Would definitely come back for more!! read more

The best beignets I had on my most recent trip to New Orleans on my last trip was not at Cafe Dumond but was at this little cafe in the airport. These were fresh from the fryer, piping hot, and less greasy than Dumond. I was not expecting this. An order of 3 was around $4 with tax. read more

I wanted to try their beignets but there was no one working and no one at the other end of the management phone number. Waited a few minutes and there were others waiting around to purchase food. When I checked back 15 minutes later, there was still no one available to order from. read more

We waited for someone to show up behind the counter. We could see the hot grease bubbling to cook the beignets, so thought surely someone was nearby. Finally called the management number that was posted but no answer. After a few more minutes a young woman arrived. We ordered our beignets, expecting her to fry them then and there. Nope, she lifted a lid of an aluminum foil container and got them there. Barely warm. The lamest beignets I've ever had in NOLA...or anywhere, for that matter. read more

Ordered the shrimp crab legs boat quite expensive. The corn was like mush. The shrimp was over cooked almost impossible to peal. The service was great. The food preparation was a disgrace to the New Orleans food reputation. read more

Never got to taste the food. The wait staff is awlful. They ignore people in line in order to small talk with other co-workers from the airport. And they are also condescending. I walked off before I was served. Need to get rid of the current employee. read more

I was flying out of New Orleans and realized I hadn't had beignets during my visit, an oversight that this airport kiosk deliciously corrected. Of course it can't match the bustling atmosphere of Cafe du Monde, but the friendly woman working the counter made the beignets fresh as I waited, and they were the real deal. read more
