"This is one of those situations where the hype does not quite meet the intended expectation. I hope to explain the review so the management and consumer can understand my 3 stars. Our server was exceptional for this visit. Great people skills and knowledge of the menu. We had a cafe latte and French toast bites to start. The coffee was a bit weak and they provided no spoon to stir in any sweetener. It?s Louisiana and the coffee should have an attitude fitting to stand up to the dairy. This screamed latte no cafe! Paper straws I really dislike them. I know it?s a green alternative, however, they break down in my beverage (iced water) and they weaken. The server provide plates, and napkins prior to the starter which is a necessity unless you want to feel like your eating from a buffet. The French toast bites are dirty, crusted morsels, albeit for the sides and caramel drizzle. This was done very well. Perfect if the coffee had delivered to its expectation. Our entrees, although edible, were neither visually appealing or as reported by other reviews raving the delights of the Epicurious. The biscuits and gravy, although built up to a pinnacle deserving of an Olympian feat, fell short in delivering the anticipatory glory of mouthwatering exceptionalism. The gravy was a watery mess of broken tears and subpar sausage. The eggs were not fresh and appeared and tasted like premade panned eggs. That?s atrocious if you expect fresh scrambled eggs. They are easy to do. They take 1 2 minutes unless they are done in the French style and creamed to perfection. The fried green tomato was perfect. Crisp, textured, and absolutely a treat along with the bacon. These are however sides to the main dish. Biscuits do not need to be that high to deliver the intended expectation. Too much bread versus gravy. The avocado, salmon toast should have been a key winner in this deflated adventure. The presentation was good. The poached egg, although perfect in cooking was not exceptional in fla"

Every time I order from here something is missing. I stopped ordering for a while and gave it another chance today. This time my biscuit was missing

The banana foster pain perdu is absolutely fantastic! The sauce elevates the dish to a whole new level, and I'm a big fan of it. The chicken sausage was much more flavorful compared to the pork.

I'm in town visiting friends and I have to say, the Salmon and Avocado toast was outstanding! We began with chocolate beignets and ruby mimosas. It was truly one of the best breakfasts I've ever had! I highly recommend it—be sure to call ahead and get on the waiting list.

Our server, Jasmine, was extremely polite and managed her tables excellently. The food was delicious, and the prices were reasonable overall, although I found the mimosa a bit overpriced. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a great brunch. They do offer outdoor seating, and it tends to get quite busy after church. View menu

First time ordering, but absolutely will not be the last! I have finally found a restaurant that gets personal preference. I hate wet eggs and always ask for scrambled hard... The Ruby Slipper understood and delivered! The French toast bites are slap your mama good. YOU CAN GET YOUR BACON CRISPY!!!!! Packaged great for travel. Made it to me with not a single crumb of this fluffy biscuit out of place. 15/10 would recommend!

I love the Salmon Toast and Morning Margaritas. Staff is friendly and the service is great. The wait was very long and we almost left. Once we were seated, our server RASHAUNDRA J. ROE made us glad we decided to stay! Her service was impeccable. The starters were served hot and timely. The main dishes were divine as usual. Recommend the Chicken St Charles, Pineapple mimosa, cinnamon swirl pancakes, and creamy vanilla iced coffee. Thanks again ROE, for great service.

Great service, even 30 minutes before close! I hate being those people having been in the restaurant business in my 20?s but we were craving brunch last Saturday and due to traffic and driving 35 minutes (on a regular traffic day), it took us longer than expected. However, the entire staff did a phenomenal job all the way around! The food, the service, ALL of it! We will definitely be back, earlier next time ???? (we were actually out by about 3:15 and there were still several tables still eating)! View menu

For a Saturday morning on LSU Gameday seating time was less than 15 minutes which was a shock. The seating is way too cramped for my liking. Every seating spot in the restaurant puts you right next to another patron and the place was full so that was a negative. Service was very quick. We got our appetizer and drinks in a timely manner and our server checked up on us to let us know when the main meal would be out. The food was pretty good as well. I like their take on Eggs Benedict and those french toats bites were awesome. The shrimp and grits was way too greasey for my taste,but it was well seasoned. The **** mary was the best part of the meal.

Where have I been, but I never heard about this place. My boss decided to take our team here for a quick bite to eat and when I tell you I?m so glad that he did. When I asked the waitress Miss Shirley, what was good on a menu, she said EVERYTHING!!! She was Great at explaining everything to us, and she made us feel like we were the only ones there. I ordered the Grit Cakes with Crawfish????????????. It was close your eyes good . Don?t talk about the shrimp and grits, it has so much flavor! For appetizers we had the French toast bites, and the Beignets. this place was so reasonable, and the vibe was awesome. An amazing place to get an awesome meal with great service!!!
