We chose Satsuma Cafe for breakfast while on vacation. I love that they have some vegan options. The cafe was nice inside. The people were friendly. The food was good, and they even had gluten free toast for me, so that was great. I wish they had some vegan butter, but other than that, we were satisfied. We both had the tofu scramble. read more

I love the fresh boho vibe. Food was amazing! Service was just okay but the overall vibe is enough to come back again and again! Oh, and the lavender lemonade....YEEEESSSSSSSS!!!! read more

My new favorite coffee breakfast spot in the bywater! Fantastic food at good prices always makes me happy. And the aesthetic is so cool. You'll love the cute courtyard in the back, and cool art work and murals inside. I had the 3 egg kale omelette, and the peanut butter cookie crumble pancake with caramel drizzle. Word in the street is you can get a slice of Dong Phuong king cake here for Mardi gras. The lunch sandwiches here look pretty awesome as well, I'll be back often! read more

Love Satsuma! 10/10, food is always great, and service is so nice! Beautiful restaurant with good ambiance.

For years Satsuma was my favorite go-to breakfast spot. I love that you can get almost any fresh juice you can dream up. The restaurant is also very dog friendly which I love. The service here is top notch and the atmosphere is very welcoming and free. I definitely need to visit them soon. read more

Great food and service with reasonable prices. Nice outdoor seating as well. Definitely recommend!

As someone who's been in the service industry for years, I was really disappointed with my experience here. I ordered avocado toast with eggs, waited nearly fifty minutes, and it arrived without the eggs. When I pointed it out, the server got defensive and rude. They also ask for a tip before service even started, which felt off. Not the level of professionalism you'd expect. Won't be coming back after today. read more

We enjoyed a nice casual brunch here. You order and pay at the counter and thet bring you your food and drinks and you bus your own dishes when done. The green sandwich was tasty and comes on your choice of a bagel, croissant or toast. The lemon lavender pancakes were so delicious and they were veey generous with the lemon curd. We did not even need the pancake syrup since the curd was so tasty in itself. The cinammon brown sugar latte was pretty but not sweet enough for me. They do have a section with milk and sugar etc. if you need to doctor your drinks. Others in our group got the breakfast plate, thr breakfast burrito, and the cuban sandwich. All were satisfied with the food and portion sizes. read more

Gosh this was a hard review to write or even number. The employees are nice and friendly and I love the ambience. It's got a great outdoors area with tables and is just such a fun place. However, the two things I tried did not make me a fan. And that's the problem. I started out with the mushroom sandwich and I'd have loved it (I think) except for the peppers. As in hot peppers, and the menu doesn't say that there are peppers. Excited for my mouth catching for I really like the sandwich. So when I returned it I had to come up with something I wanted to eat. That just was such a compromise that I didn't like it. And we had to adjust it because of my being pescatarian. So it was doomed to failure. They do have some cool breakfast items and I plan to come back and will revisit this review then. read more

Cute and casual spot for a quick bite before starting my vacation day. Service was quick and the food tasted great. Not too heavy and the ambiance was quite relaxing. read more

It had been a while since I last went to Satsuma, and I'm glad I did. This was my first time visiting the Dauphine St. location (I went to the Maple St. one a handful of times) and enjoyed the location. I ordered an iced dirty chai and the Mexican breakfast plate. For the most part, I enjoyed the breakfast. However, the tortillas were cold and stiff and there was hardly any salsa. If you are going to prominently list salsa as one of the ingredients, I would expect more than a teaspoon of it. Overall, I'd be happy going back and trying other things from the menu. I saw a few people eating pancakes that looked very very tasty. read more

This was a total bummer. I came to New Orleans for the food. We were staying nearby and most eateries were closed as it was a weekday so we came here a few times. Breakfast was fine so we can by for lunch. I got the worst salad I've ever had. If you want to spend $13.68 for a bunch of soggy spinach and not even two bites of avocado you've come to the right place. The people working inside could have been kinder too. I went to use the bathroom and they demanded you stand in a certain spot. Don't mind doing that just could have asked kindly. I'd skip this spot. read more

Cute cafe in the bywater - friendly staff - adorable cafe cat that will come in. However, i feel everything is a bit overpriced for what it is. I believe i paid about 7.50 for a green eggs and ham on a bagel. to be fair, it was good (minus the ham), but it was lacking pesto in the egg. i wish there were more cheese too. overall it was an overpriced mediocre egg n cheese sandwhich at best. Theres plenty of juices to choose from, but they too are a bit overpriced. read more

The avocado toast was huuuuuuge. Love it! We sat outside on the shaded patio. The decor is eclectic and there's a really active community board that seems to be regularly updated. read more

I really hate having to write this, especially since I've enjoyed the food here for years. I've been a regular customer for the past four years, but today I had the worst experience. My friends and I ordered drinks to go and were standing while waiting. We were told to sit down, so we complied and sat at an available table. Shortly after, a staff member approached me and told me to move my chair. This wasn't the first unpleasant comment my friends and I received. The staff here seems frustrated and does not treat their paying customers with respect. I'm honestly very disappointed that it came to this. read more

I came here for breakfast this morning with a friend. We sat outside and it was nice and quiet. A cute cat came by and there were a few birds outside in the trees next to our table. My friend and I both ordered the avocado toast. It was small for $8, I was pretty surprised. Also, it didn't taste particularly good, the avocado mash was really bland. I also had a lemonade which was nice. Overall, it's a nice environment but would recommend trying something other than the avocado toast. read more

My husband and I both have Celiac Disease (gluten free) and we're vegetarians. We visited here on our trip to New Orleans for brunch. This is a small and charming cafe-style joint with a nice patio. It's not a dedicated kitchen but the staff happily prepared us an egg sandwich on housemade GF bread as well as an eggs & black beans breakfast with housemade tortillas. They cleaned off surfaces to prepare our meals. My husband and I are both very sensitive and felt fine after this meal. Amazing coffee here, too. read more

Ordered bagel with lox. Got the bagel with no lox. Inquired why I didn't get lox and was told you have to order lox separately. Maybe the lady who took my order did not hear me correctly, but they seemed apathetic to me wanting lox and willing to pay for it. Long story short I ate a decent bagel without lox this morning. This was just my experience and there are lots of places to grab coffee and a bagel in NOLA. read more

A coffeeshop/breakfast place, Satsuma Cafe is a nice stop for anyone looking for either a quick bite or coffee, or a full breakfast at a reasonable price. Had the green eggs and ham sandwich and the bagel plate. Both were really good, and came out quickly. Inside, they have some tables for seating as well as some books. There is a small table for kids as well, for those who would like to bring their families. They also have an outdoor area with a few tables. Overall, a good place to grab a bite and then wander around the Bywater neighborhood. read more

I can see what all the hype is all about and why locals love it! Tucked away is an amazing hipster brunch spot for vegans, vegetarians, and meat-lovers! I love the Vegan Curry Scramble with quinoa and tofu with roasted cauliflower, kale, roasted sweet potatoes and a ginger curry with sourdough bread. It's such a hearty meal as the veggies blend so well together. As there few and far between vegetarian options in New Orleans, Satsuma was hands down the best meal I had on my trip! My husband enjoyed the Satsuma Breakfast plate with bacon, biscuit, and fruit. The Fresh OJ was sooooo good! Originally, I got Mocha but after having a sip of my husband's orange juice, I had to get my own glass! The juices are so fresh and made on site. I bought a bottle of juice on my way out. I really like the local vibe and the service is really friendly. Great brunch spot and definitely a stop on my next visit! read more

Great location, great atmosphere, wonderful service and friendly environment. And the portions and quality of the food are outstanding. Whenever we visit our child in New Orleans we always ask to go there. read more

This place is so cute and the food is good! It's only a short walk from my workplace, so I often come here to grab a midday snack or a cup of coffee. I'm a huge fan of the mocha and of the simple egg and cheese on a bagel. I typically grab the food to go (and their service is fast!) so I haven't actually sat down here yet. But if you are in the market for a sit down meal there's plenty of seating and a reasonably diverse menu. If you're a vegetarian like I am, you should be fine here. Another big plus: There's a great patio area outside as well! They also have decent WiFi and outlets so if you just need a spot to work this is definitely a space to consider. read more

1st visit today to local Bywater cafe, SATSUMA. Found ourselves down the block checking out a quote unquote 'antique shop', ( some might say overpriced stuff no one wants anymore).......... fancied a coffee. SATSUMA appeared.... @ 3218 Dauphine! Purely delicious 6 star quality decaffeinated coffee x 2 with hot almond milk, truly good to the last drop. Pungent deep & flavoursome fresh brew. Minus a star * I bussed the only free table indoors (outdoor shady ones were taken). & gave it a 'spray and wipe' self service. FOOD beckoned, quirky menu.... Tasty green wrap filled w/ chicken curry served w/ lovely vinaigrette side salad completed the light lunch. Quality & Value. Clean tidy spacious room ceiling fans airy delightful atmosphere quiet Texas cowboy songs background. Staff friendly helpful. 6 minus 1 = 5 stars. Recommended. read more

I wanted something simple and delicious for breakfast and found this little gem in Bywater. The food was great. The service was fast and everyone was welcoming. The space inside was clean, casual and pleasant. I had a wonderful lavender latte as well. I'll definitely come back when I'm in town. read more

Paid way too much for the most simple BLT I've ever eaten in my life. Plus, staff was annoying.

Great food, wonderful service, and amazing staff. Very laid back chill hipster kind of ambience

Delicious food, amazing stuff, with hipster vibes, Vegetarian and Vegan-friendly I don't know why we have waited until the end of our trip to visit this place. Big mistake. This place is my most favorite place to eat! Finally, a place where we all (carnivores and vegans) could enjoy amazing food and great atmosphere. We got: Blueberry pancake - my friend who loves pancakes and believe me, he ordered probably hundreds of them on different places, said that this pancake was the best from all he has ever had - fluffy, light, delicious. He probably dreams about this pancake until today. He also got a Mexican breakfast plate with scrambled eggs and he loved it too. Quiona & Eggs - my other friend, who took us to this place, got some of the specials this time. He is trying to go for healthier choices, and he didn't regret at all, he loved it. I went for Vegan curry scramble with both quinoa and tofu - delicious, creamy, healthy, light. I truly wish we have you in NYC! We also got some vegan baked sweetness, unfortunately i don't remember the name. But I still remember how delicious it was - especially with coffee. Staff was very friendly, happy and helpful. Indoor and outdoor seating (beautiful patio and if you get lucky, you can meet a cat, who likes to hang out there :-) and WiFi are perfect for those with laptops. We love this place and when we are back in NOLA, this is the first stop :-) PS: Even the restroom is extraordinary :-) read more

It's pretty expensive for what you're getting. The atmosphere is nice, but I wouldn't go back.

One of my favorite places to grab a nice, not too heavy lunch. The turkey pesto aioli sandwich is something I crave for months and have tried to replicate to no avail. Coffee is great but a bit overpriced in my opinion. The iced mocha and latte are good! Covid-19 precautions seem to be followed attentively!! The Dauphine location is my all time favorite!! Also has water dishes for dogs if that's something you're looking for! read more

An amazing brunch/breakfast location. So happy to have found this place. The staff is so sweet and a pleasure to have. A very nice courtyard

When will yelp offer the option for giving negative reviews. My experience at this place was so bad I'd give it -5 stars. It's new years and we decide that we want to do a little cute brunch before we set off on our adventure... we arrive at like 11:45am and place our order.. 3 egg dishes... plus a large coffee. Simple enough. We find our seat and the coffee comes within 5 minutes. We wait... we wait... we wait. (Somehow I feel satsuma means to wait) we change seats 3 times... and we wait. We wait. We wait.. we wait. 1 hour passes.. we wait... remember these are egg dishes... unless you are having freshly laid eggs where you have to coax the hens to lay eggs by singing some magical mystical song... then there is no fucking way that eggs should take over an hour to prepare. We inquired once about the length of time it takes for the egg dishes to be prepared and was greeted with "we are sorry for the delay but it's on its way". Nice rhyme right? We wait and we wait and we wait. We inquire once more about the length of time it takes for these very complicated egg dishes to be prepared... and we were given a refund without asking for it... then like magic... these magical egg dishes appear. Having waited 1+ hour for our dishes... the minimum expectation would be for the dishes to be hot... it could taste like shit... but since the eggs are fresh out of the hen and the we waited 1 hour for it to be cooked... it should be doubly hot. Nope... cold as ice.. i had cold eggs... cold beans cold tortillas... cold everything. If u dont value your time and like cold eggs. This is the place for you. I however do like hot food and and value my time... so I wont be going back and I'll encourage everyone to avoid this place. read more

Cute and funky ambiance, the sandwiches were great but the coffee was basic. Definitely recommend the food but we were there for the coffee and I was disappointed. read more

Satsuma has been my go-to breakfast/brunch spot for the several years that I have lived in the neighborhood now. You can expect fresh ingredients, friendly and familiar faces, and hot coffee always! After their recent renovation, the space flows well and is inviting despite there often being long lines and big crowds. Their coffee (not sure where it is sourced) tends to be on the more acidic and bitter end of the spectrum. I really like their croissants and bagels and usually ask for the special BLT or breakfast sandwiches to be put on one of those. They have an herb cream cheese on a lot of their menu options that is so creamy and fresh and just adds an amazing burst of flavor! Don't miss their Specials board each day. Usually they have a quiche option that is great! And also the juices... they really speak for themselves. Get fancy with their combinations or stick with a classic orange juice - it's the best in the city IMHO. A bit pricey, but totally worth it! read more
