What??!! This is one of the best restaurants I have ever eaten in in my entire 50-year-old life!…read more We have been coming to New Orleans a couple times a year from Southern California for about the last 10 years or so and I'm upset that no one even recommended this place!! We are here for the Essence Festival and I just so happen to be rapping to one of the security officers at the convention center, and she recommended this place. I want to go back & give her the biggest hug and kiss on the cheek! It is ridiculous how flavorful everything was! Just didn't make any sense! Lol lol I've sent this location to everyone I know that travels to New Orleans. The price is great, and the portions are very healthy! This restaurant in California would be almost double what your bill is going to be. There was three people at the table & we ordered four appetizers..... (which was all we really needed)... and everyone agreed 1 out of 10, they gave it a 10!! this restaurant is a must to try when visiting or even if you live in the city! So much good food to eat, but this is by far the best restaurant I've ever been to in New Orleans!

My friends and I decided to try out Katie's on a Friday afternoon. We made a reservation prior to…read morecoming, but the wait time was still very long; although, I do understand since it was a weekend. It was street parking only, so that was kind of a challenge. The service was nice. The inside was very tight and small spaced. The decor was still nice. It gave off a mom & pop/home style aesthetic. We ordered the Crawfish Beignet ($20.00) as our appetizer. I got their Rosemary Chicken with a side of Potato Salad & Sweet Potato Fries ($22.00). My friends got their Shrimp Bucktown Alfredo ($24.00) & Swamp Fries with Debris Gravy ($13.00). The food was okay, in my opinion, but it was nothing too special for the price. My friend said the Alfredo was a bit salty. The chicken I had was good. I was a bit disappointed with the Crawfish Beignet because the texture was hard, as I had expected it to have a soft beignet-like texture to it. Overall, it's a decent spot, but a bit overpriced for the quality.

You order at the register and they bring your food out to you. The staff was so friendly and help explain the menu to me. After reviewing the menu I decided to get the spicy chicken platter (buttermilk marinated spiced chicken with tzatziki, kale and cabbage salad with fresh bread). After about a 10 minute wait my platter came out and I was so impressed. The portion size was very big, I had enough to take home for dinner. Everything was delicious and so fresh. Even though it's called the spicy chicken platter, it was not spicy which I was glad about. There's so much more on the menu that I want to try so I'll definitely be back.

The prices are reasonable as well and the service is great.

The gyros were terribly dry but the lamb had good flavor. Adding more tzatziki sauce would've helped immensely. They did have fries on the gyros which is the best way to eat them but the fries were out of a seasoned bag and soggy. Expresso martini was good but the Freddo cappuccino was mehh. Slow service and we were the only 3 people in there at 11:45am. I hope they can improve on their flavors and service. The location is nice for the area.

So when our initial plan fell through last night (closed on Thursdays), we decided to go find it again not knowing the actual restaurant name. While we still want to try the other place, we were VERY happy to have found this spot. They have a very fancy drink menu. But we came for the burger which we all 3 got. Incredibly delicious! The quality of the beef used was top notch. Cooked to medium, it was juicy and so flavorful. They used good quality buns that could stand up to the juiciness. Very filling. I didn't take a picture because 1. It's a burger and 2. I rarely post reviews and didn't think to pull out my phone. The staff and owner were so friendly and accommodating. Revel Cafe and Bar will be a nice local place to bring our craft cocktail-loving visitors. Thank you, Revel for such a pleasant and delicious dining experience on a random Thursday night!

When it's crawfish season you can buy a plate. They have plenty of tables to sit out and enjoy your crawfish while sipping on your drink. Great location in Mid City.

Every pizza here is true St. Louis-style: thin, cracker-like crust, topped with a unique Provel cheese blend, and cut into squares.

Francesca has a neighborhood vibe--think local sports bar with a family-friendly feel. The service was warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. I'm already looking forward to going back and trying more of the menu and daily specials. Highly recommend!

Me, I need some veggies to offset three days of eating out, a lot of fried foods. It's N'awlins, y'all. So, the Sue Bird Salad looked like a good option. Mixed greens, sweet potato cubes, pecans, currants and goat cheese. Added chicken for protein. Balsamic dressing on the side. Ate half. Maybe I'll have the rest for a healthy snack. So delicious! The girls got a Buddha bowl, a Bueno bowl and a salad turned into a sandwich with chips. They enjoyed. So nice to have the family together to celebrate the rewards after a lot of hard work! Good Bird. A nice place to pick up lunch to go.

In my personal opinion, the build your own wrap is the best. I always get the spinach wrap with Parmesan, romaine, tomatoes, croutons, tofu, and avocado with the truffle ceaser dressing. Listen to me, croutons are a MUST in your wrap. One day, I hope they bring back the hummus they used to have because it was so tasty.
