We stopped in here quite by accident for a late brunch and boy are we glad we did. I cannot say enough nice things about the service, friendliness, and menu. Nice bar service, good cocktails, excellent lemonade, and water filled again and again and again. Their biscuits - please!!! Light, fluffy, airy, with a tiny crunch on the top. Slathered with their maple butter or topped with miraculous eggs benedict - you cannot go wrong here. We loved it. read more

We went here after a long 12hr shift and it was well worth it! They open at 7:30am and they have Happy Hour Mon-Thurs (50% off drinks!) I'm guessing it is from 7:30-9:30am but not sure! The service was great and food was awesome!! We had two appetizers and I had the biscuit and gravy which came with eggs bacon and fried green tomatoes! Definitely will return! read more

Hey! This is TakeFlightFoodie, check out my Instagram for more pics! I got the French toast and chicken, and it was good. The French Toast was crisp on the outside and gooey in the middle. Well, the bites that was cut from the middle was. The edges of the bread was just crispy. I didn't except for the French toast bites to be like that but it wasn't bad. What I didn't like that the Sweet brat sauce was on the French toast as well. It was an taste I wasn't prepared for. Overall the place is nice, the food not bad just got to know what you like from there. read more

Visited NOLA for my birthday and the Yelp family and locals said this was the tourist/local spot to go for good food. However the wait was going to be 1.5hrs and we just didn't have that time. Luckily this location had a bar and go figure 5 open spots next to each other was available. Happy Birthday to me and thank you universe. We sat at the bar and the bartender Dom was a riot. He was fast, funny, witty and honestly was exactly what this group needed. We laughed and laughed and our drinks were amazing. Our brunch turned out great, we connected with Dom after work to continue the birthday fun. Truly looking forward to coming back again. read more

We came here for a late afternoon brunch and with the help of their online waitlist, we were able to be seated as soon as we arrived. Although it was packed, a waitress approached us immediately and brought us water and gave us suggestions since it was our first time there. I decided to order the catfish and grits and my boyfriend ordered the chicken St. Charles. They were absolutely slammed, so there was about a thirty minute wait for our food. By the time we got our food, the catfish and grits was a bit lukewarm, but we were so hungry at that point that we did not mind. The catfish and grits came with a pork tasso cream sauce and a warm biscuit. Even though it wasn't piping hot, it was still absolutely delicious! The chicken St. Charles was also fantastic. All in all, Ruby Slipper has absolutely delicious food and good service at a reasonable price. I would definitely go back in the future! read more

Quick service, great food! Think upscale diner foods that happens to have a great bar. A round of drinks for breakfast. Spicy Bloody Mary. Bacon infused Bloody Mary. Brandy milk punch. Iced Irish coffee. We ordered the special king cake stuffed French toast for the table. Thick French toast brioche bread filled with sweetened cream cheese and topped with green/yellow/purple sugar served with blueberry compote and bacon. Got it for the table and shared. All thought too dry. Soak the bread in the egg wash! Otherwise, great flavor with crunchy sugar. Sweet compote helped w/dryness and cream cheese filling was drinkable! Would not order again. Got country breakfast. Grits, poached eggs, bacon, fried green tomato and biscuit. Nice stone ground grits were delicious. Turned reset into sandwich on biscuit w/hot sauce and brown sugar butter. Biscuit was flaky and buttery. If the stuffed French toast was not dry this would have been a 5 star breakfast. I will go back. read more

I 10/10 recommend this restaurant! I visited for the first time yesterday, and I am already preparing for my return. We began with an order of fried green tomatoes with a Peach Bellini and Ruby Mimosa. For an entree, I had an omelet (pepper Jack cheese, onions, tomatoes, spinach, and ham) with a pancake, and my bestie had the shrimp and grits. The blend of flavors were ON POINT. The set up of the restaurant was really nice, and it had a great vibe. The waitress was lively and provided great service. Staff were all friendly and youthful. The food was delivered to the table in a timely manner. We will definitely be returning sooner rather than later! read more

A well known breakfast chain in NOLA. This is just one of four locations. I would encourage u to download the app NOWAIT which is tied to yelp. This app allows u to view restaurants and save your place in line. Which in NOLA brunch time can certainly offer a lengthy wait. My husband used this app which is how we found this spot. Other places already had an hour plus wait on a Saturday morning. One of the can't misses I gave a try was the RUBY Slipper Mimosa which is sizable. Champagne, OJ & Pomegranate. It was delish, but holy cow I needed a nap afterwards. I also had the BYOB 3 egg omelette. If ever there was a place that I overate, it's here. The portions area are very generous and the food was amazing. Service was great. They accommodated our group shortly after arriving and were served immediately. This place gets crazy crowded so u should definitely check the app out first! All in all a great breakfast spot. Pick your location, but this one was a hit for our group hands down! read more

Not only was the food 10 out of 10, but the service with Tommie was super friendly and quick, highly recommend!

My daughter and I were so excited that there was no wait at noon on a Friday. We sat down right away. 'Tia' came to get our drink orders. Said she'd be right back. Unfortunately she disappeared for at least 10 minutes. We saw her serving another table at one point and passed us right by. Came around after we signaled and introduced herself again and asked for our drink orders. I reminded her what we ordered and asked if we could order. Said she'd be right back. Which she was - with our drinks. We ordered and waited far too long for breakfast, which was lukewarm at best. Refilled my drink, so thanks. Asked for the check and got it right away. Took out my credit card and waited and waited and waited. Eventually left cash + tip. Not what I'm used to at Ruby Slipper. Definitely won't be back there. read more

I just wasn't impressed. Sorry. I guess my expectations were too high based on the prices I had seen on line before we went. The food was good, but it didn't knock my socks off. The portions weren't very big either. I had one of the eggs Benedict. It was average. Hollandaise sauce was not very good at all. It didn't come with any sides. My grandson ordered pancakes and he got one piece of bacon. I don't think I'll go back. IHOP would have been better. read more

Always enjoy the food here, however, it was my first time at this location. It was New Years Day and the morning before the Sugar Bowl (geaux Huskies!) so it was heeeeeella busy! It was a long wait due to the crowd (over an hour on the waitlist and another hour waiting for our table) so we could see & hear people getting frustrated. Kinda expected to see a manager helping field some issues, but despite being worked like crazy, Justin (the host) held it down. Him and Blaine (our server) made our experience a great one. Justin communicated our status as we waited, ensuring we would get served even though closing time was quickly approaching. And Blaine was super attentive and accommodating throughout our entire brunch. They both deserve raises (because I can only imagine the people giving them hell) because our service was phenomenal. And then there is the food. Everything was delicious! - beignets, french toast, omelet, grits, biscuits and gravy. It was worth the wait and we were told typically its not that busy. Go here, you won't regret it! read more

First time visiting this place. It's a nice spot in the heart of Nola, on Magazine Street. Our server (can't remember his name) was great. Provided us with good suggestions on the food, very friendly, and overall great. The food: I had the fish with grits if you like the kinda savory sauce this is it!!! My friend had the banana foster french toast and it was Soooo good!! Definitely would visit again. They rave on the cheesecake French toast so I must try. read more

Visited this place on a Tuesday around 8am. It was almost empty so we were seated right away. I went with the the peacemaker which basically allow you to choose two different type of benedicts. I went with the chicken and substituted the pork sauce with the regular hollandaise and also choose the salmon Benedict. The chicken Benedict was the tastier even though thought the chicken was a bit tough to chew but still good. The salmon needed a bit of lemon. My wife went with the skinny Florentine which was average as expected given it's in the light section. Although we got to taste their potatoes which were really good mainly because they are soaked with oil and salt. Finally we finished if with the banana French toast. The portion was huge! It was soaked with syrup which I liked. The French toast was hot and fresh but it stretched a bit when I took a bite, it wasn't bothering me but would be better if had more of crunchy texture. Overall here are my ratings: Chicken Benedict: 7.5/10 Salmon Benedict: 7.5/10 Banana French toast: 8/10 read more
