I was in NOLA for like 20hours on a work mission. and i decided to have breakfast here. Everyone at the hotel i was staying recommended it. So i gave it a shot Im from NYC so i had to try theyre Bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich. And i will tell you it was official. I told them instead of a roll put it on a biscuit. (Which they make inhouse) and wow. Every bite was a happy moment. Eggs were fluffy, the cheese was melted just rite! Also had some grits, that was good too but who can mess up grits. The service was also great! They did move at a slower pace but thats only cus im use to that city speed. But it was all worth it once the food came out. read more

The food and service at this restaurant were both incredible. Would come back solely for this reason. However, we had a reservation for 12 PM and it was well after 12:30 PM before they even sat us so beware that a reservation doesn't mean much here! read more

Tommie was amazing!!! She took care of us like family!! The food- so good. Location not to far from the French Quarter

Happy bellies here! This location is much smaller from the one on Magazine St., but I love the charm and intimate feeling this one brings. The Ruby Slipper's menu had so many options to choose from, it was tough to choose. I was between the southern breakfast plate and the fried chicken on French toast but opted for the southern plate to try their biscuit and fried green tomato. I also tried the shrimp and grits which I def recommend. Service was friendly and attentive as well. read more

The food here was absolutely delicious! The service was fantastic! Everyone was so friendly and they're also very quick considering how busy it is in there. I was visiting from California and found this place because we were looking for brunch. I do recommend adding your name and your number in your party into the waitlist because it does get very busy and the wait times can be very long. When we arrived, there was already a whole bunch of people waiting outside of the café, but luckily, we already had our names in the waitlist as we were in our Uber from our hotel to the restaurant. read more

I had "The Peacemaker". You can choose two of tbeir fabulous Egg Benedict plates. I chose the (1) Pork Benny and (2) Shrimp on Fried Tomato with Creole Tomato Sauce. Both on housemade biscuits vs. English Muffin. Yum! Service was good. Yelp! made it easy to track the progess of our reservation. I had to ask for extra Hollandaise sauce because my pork Benny plate was a little dry. My eggs were a tad overcooked. No drippy yums! :/... Delicious flavors, regardless, with the pork tasso and creole tomato sauces. Iʻd go again. read more

Me and some friends were in NOLA last week for a business conference and saw the good reviews for this place so did breakfast here. The bloody Mary was as expected. I ordered shrimp and grits and that's where it turned south for me. The shrimp was okay but the grits were clumpy, tasteless, and should've never been presented to a customer. Also, two of the guys ordered the same breakfast entree and both spent much of the rest of the week on the toilet with violent digestive problems. Coincidence? Maybe. read more

There's a couple of locations of this breakfast-lunch eatery, and our group found ourselves in the one near Canal. It's a bit small inside, and there's a few outdoor seats, so it feels a little cramped. Menu is familiar as it's got a lot of local Cajun type of dishes. I got the following: - Catfish and Grits - 6.5/10: presentation was nice. But there was way more breading than actual catfish. The filet portions are really small. Not a good ratio from the typical cornmeal jacket to filet. A little disappointing. - NOLA Style Iced Coffee - 8/10: Terrific chickory beverage. Very smooth. Anyway, the menu is big enough to probably call for another visit, so I'll update this review some time in the future. read more

Ruby Slipper is the quintessential destination for brunch when visiting NOLA. With numerous locations located in the area it's like you can't not stop by and try them out. They are so popular you almost always have to sign up for the waitlist online but I promise you it will always be worth the wait. This visit we decided to try a variety of menu options. - Bayou Shrimp and Chicken St. Charles Bennies were flavorful and delicious and served on their world famous biscuits. If I remember correctly I believe our server said they serve over 2-3 million biscuits per year. I can 100% see why, they are some of the best homemade biscuits you'll ever have. - Southern Breakfast with a side of pancakes all were good and filing (you'll see how big the pancakes are in my pictures) -Sweet Heat Chicken & French Toast Bites were cooked to perfection and flavorful. Do yourself a favor, if you're in NOLA go ahead and stop by Ruby Slipper they have a variety of tasty brunch items that won't leave you disappointed! read more

This is our go to brunch/breakfast spot when we come to NOLA. Best to try and get on the waitlist online because there is almost always a wait.

The food has never disappointed and the Ruby mimosa is a great way to kick off the day when you're on vaca in NOLA! read more

The people were amazing, the food was really good. However, the banana foster was to die for. I had never experienced one and the amazing manager Travis heard that and said " hold on!"

We came to NOLA for a bday trip and, in a city full of great food, we returned to Ruby Slipper 3 mornings in a row. Every single team member was above and beyond in hospitality. They made our birthday celebration known!! Every dish we tried was outstanding. If I could give 20 stars I would!! This is a gem of a place. The location on lower Magazine St is the best! Do not miss the best brunch in town. read more

Ruby Slipper Decatur - The slipper - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Do not trust the hype!! I'm honestly not sure how Ruby Slipper has such a high rating on Yelp after this experience. We joined the waitlist at 9:37 AM, were seated at 10:20 AM, and didn't receive our food until after 11:10 AM. That's over an hour and a half from waitlist to food -- completely unreasonable for breakfast. Unfortunately, the food was mediocre at best and absolutely not worth the long wait. To make matters worse, the restaurant was noticeably dirty, which made the whole experience even more disappointing. With so many great breakfast spots around, this one just didn't live up to the hype. Such as disappointment coming all the way from NYC. read more

Love that they have yelp waitlist. This is a great option as they do have a wait. Hostess was very kind and helpful. We were quickly seated after checking in. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. Unfortunately the food quality was not worth it. I have been to another Ruby Slippers location and found the food to be great. Perhaps it's this location, or the combination of the timing being the weekend following superbowl and preparation for Mardi Gras. Coffee was great no complaints. Eggs Cochon Benedict came out with the eggs overcooked and no yolk to be found. Waiter was kind to bring out some fresh ones, but unfortunately when I cut into the pork and biscuit both were cold. He took it back and came out with a new plate. Unfortunately it wasn't better so I ate the eggs and biscuit. At another location it was served hot and the yolks ran all over the pork and biscuit. Sadly this location was either having an off day or just overwhelmed with the amount of people. My fiancés shrimp and grits was better than the Cochon dish, but nothing to give rave reviews about. While their customer service and ease of being out on the waitlist was great, we won't be back. read more

Tho restaurant is super popular! We got on the waitlist from our phones, but didn't make it to the restaurant in time. We immediately made another request to get back on the waitlist and was sat after about 20 minutes. The restaurant is tiny but very packed. The waitstaff were all great, especially considering how busy it was. Unfortunately, for my small group, the food and drinks were either incorrect, or they didn't measure up to our taste. The fried green tomatoes I ordered seemed to lack the actual tomatoes- it tasted almost like just fried batter with the dressings. The drinks were overly sweet but presented nicely. We all left pretty hungry, but I would give the restaurant another try during a not so busy time of the year. We may have just come at a bad time. read more

Came here with 3 of my friends. The space is very casual, with cute NOLA/Ruby Slipper-themed decor. The mimosa flight, appetizers (fried green tomatoes and candy bacon) and entrees were all 3/5 or3.5/5 - solid breakfast food, nothing stood out as particularly bad or great. Now the service was fabulous! Everyone we interacted with was attentive, friendly, welcoming and hilarious on top of all that! They made a simple breakfast very memorable. read more

Absolutely one of the best mainstream restaurants we tried! I consider it mainstream because it is very popular online and it seems to have lines out of the door (we usually go for the hole in the wall in New Orleans) but this place was outstanding! We had the Chantilly pancakes, veggie omelette, kids pancake and bacon, and the amazing shrimp and grits! The shrimp and grits literally melt it in your mouth. The grits were cooked so well that you would never know they were a grain. The shrimp were tender, season to perfection and they gave a good amount. Online I did the waitlist and my table was about 20 minutes overdue. We walked in and they took us right away. Do not let the line intimidate you. You might get lucky and be able to find a seat that fit your party still. The servings were huge, the service was outstanding! I believe our waiters name was Chris and he was awesome. There's definitely no parking so plan ahead. read more

Ruby Slipper Decatur - Signature Slipper! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

We always visit the Slipper on Magazine St but on this occasion, we had breakfast at this locale. This is southern cuisine at its finest whether you are there for breakfast or their awesome brunch. Biscuits and gravy are a must order. Don't fancy gravy order the biscuit and you will be comparing their off the chart flaky biscuits to all others and be disappointed that you are not at the Slipper. On this visit I ordered their Spanish omelet, and it was just stuffed with chorizo and veggies. I made sure to include a biscuit. This breakfast stayed with me throughout the day. I did notice that an adjoining diner ordered their Costa Rican breakfast. Warning: It was huge, and you could easily split this dish. Service on this visit was Meh. The waiter at the next table was outgoing and even offered to go drinks to his table. Ours appeared to be doing us a favor by taking our order and bringing us a 2nd coffee. This is out of the Norm as we always have great friendly service. Pro tip: Their adult drinks are heavy pours so enjoy! read more

Visiting from SC to enjoy time from work my husband and I ventured to Ruby Slipper/Ruby Sunshine. We were greeted by a very high spirited person. Her personality was fire . Upon sitting at the bar we had a waitress named Hannah that appeared very unhappy to be at work. Water no straws. We didnt complain we just got up and grabbed them ourselves. Ordered our food Received my coffee it was not hot to include adding chilled creamer. Hannah became so overwhelmed by my request for hit coffee she demanded someone remove us from our desired seat. We came in love and left the same way. Reminder to all service workers from a service worker....dont allow cold coffee to set your mood for the day. Hannah we apologize if we offended you, yet your behavior did spark unsettling feelings momentarily in or visit. Udidit thx for turning things around. I know that not the spelling of your name.

This was my family's favorite meal during our visit to New Orleans! We had brunch consisting of the chicken and waffles and eggs Benedict. The service was very friendly, from the hostess out at the street to our server at the table we felt genuinely welcome. The place won't win any awards for cleanliness but it was tolerable and the food made up for it. It was very busy so we had to wait a while, even with a reservation, but it was worth it.
