Hambone - Carta

I'm really sorry to see this place close down. The fried chicken and skillet biscuits with homemade pickles were absolutely amazing. I hope to find these talented chefs at another local spot soon!

The food and service are phenomenal. We love this little gem in mandeville. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is because it is sooooo uncomfortably hot inside the building.....they need fans in the rooms or maybe window units. Sweating while eating wasn't fun.

One of the very best restaurants in the area. Would highly recommend! I came for lunch and all plates were truly amazing. The atmosphere is great and the attention outstanding.

Charming restaurant with a lovely outdoor play area for kids. Unfortunately, the food was quite salty, which left me feeling underwhelmed. I had lunch there, and the service was decent. The atmosphere was also nice, but overall, I wasn’t very impressed. Price per person was around $10-$20. Ratings: Food: 3, Service: 4, Atmosphere: 3.

The food here is excellent, made with high-quality ingredients and, as far as I could tell, prepared and served with care. For families, there’s a fenced-off outdoor area with games and plenty of space for children to play, making it an ideal spot for a family outing. The inside might be less accommodating for kids due to its size, but on a nice day, the outdoor space is just perfect. I dined here for brunch, and the service was great.

I always seem to overlook this restaurant, even though it’s right in my neighborhood! I went there for lunch yesterday, and the weather was perfect—not too hot and a bit overcast—so we decided to sit outside. Inside, the music was quite loud, making it impossible to hold a conversation. But the food is absolutely amazing! My mom and I both ordered the crispy fish, and we were not disappointed! The presentation is stunning, and the flavors blend together beautifully. They serve it all in one bowl, and now I’m eager to try all the other entrees on the menu! Ver carta

We were seated in the very back room and it was so insanely hot. There were no fans that could’ve made our visit more comfortable. On top of that we waited over an hour for our food to arrive. When it finally did come the waitress said that our wait was because of an 8 top that came in right before us. As if somehow that would make our wait acceptable. My husband’s food was stone cold. We didn’t send it back because we were worried about how long it would take to fix the situation. We’ve dined here before and had a great experience…this one just wasn’t. Granted it was Father’s Day so it was busy….but they were seating too many people for how backed up the kitchen was.

This restaurant has a warm and unpretentious atmosphere. I didn't think twice when I ordered the chicken sandwich, boudin, and gumbo – just a quick bite before heading to church. The chicken sandwich was absolutely amazing; the flavor was perfect! I rushed to the kitchen to find out who had prepared it, only to discover that the chef resembled Seth Rogen. This guy is like a culinary magician. There’s something extraordinary about his cooking, bursting with flavor! Even though I'm not usually a fan of gumbo, his version, paired with potato salad, changed my perspective completely. I really hope this place keeps this chef, because if he makes his way to LA, New York, or Chicago, he’ll surely b...

The only downside is that parking can be difficult—you may need to make a few laps or park a few blocks away and walk. However, it's definitely worth it for the delicious food you'll be enjoying. North Shore has truly impressed me with the hidden culinary gems on this side of the lake, and Hambone has become the highlight of our brunch adventures with my group of eight friends. We gladly make the drive across the Causeway knowing it will end with satisfied appetites and cherished memories at Hambone. As for accessibility, there’s a ramp leading up to the building, although there is a gravel seating area outside that requires some navigation. For those with dietary restrictions, there are pl...
