YOU NEED TO EAT HERE! Party of 7, and EVERYONE was happy with their orders. Fantastic. Thinking of making the hour drive just to come back again on our trip. Drink: French greyhound. Perfectly balanced and super yummy Appetizers: fried green tomatoes and duck kebabs. Dinners: flatbread margarita, Korean rice bowl (the days special), pork belly and grits, skirt steak. I mean seriously, not only was the main protein of the meal good, every component side, garnish, sauce, was fab. We had already done two "traditional" Cajun /creole meals and were ready for a fresh break and 531 didn't disappoint. Don't let "cafe" make you think it's any less of a great spot. Also got to talk with the owner which was awesome and quaint. read more

Food was decent. Service was good. Atmosphere was good. I heard it was the most hipster place in Houma. I can see that. read more

Finally got the pleasure of trying this place after years of it having my attention, and it did not disappoint. I would certainly say it's a bit more on the classier side but I went in casual (my casual, basketball shorts and a T) wear for lunch. Apparently there's a second floor but I didn't get to see it. It's also kinda on the smaller side but there's quite a few tables and chairs. Walking in, seating yourself, I suppose there is a lunch menu and a dinner menu. Music in the background, fairly loud from all the visitors' conversations. We ordered the fried green tomatoes but they were out, leading us to our entrees. The 531 burger is very very good; not dry from being overcooked, tasty onions (absolutely massive onions), incredible bun. I wish it came with pickles on the burger...that pickle was so delicious. The fries are also super good, and my plate came with A TON. My gal said the club sandwich was good, nothing more nothing less. She said the roast beef threw her off...club sandwiches don't usually come with roast beef? Idk, I've never had one. She then ordered the cake off of the weekly posted menu on the chalk board on one of the walls. She liked it, I wasn't crazy over it. Total ended up being $58, it was a nice experience, I enjoyed the atmosphere and food very much so. Certainly got a very large portion for the price we paid. Service was also spectacular, leaving no question for a 5 star review. This won't be my last visit here read more

I have probably eaten here 20 times now - guess it's time for a review. I have never ever eaten anything here I haven't enjoyed. The salads are huge - pro tip- ask them to chop it up for you, much easier to eat. Burgers are phenomenal as is the duck empanadas, the fried green tomatoes, and I love to try the daily specials. Hope you enjoy! read more

531 Liberty Cafe - Part of downstairs dining area - Cafes Near Me - Houma, Louisiana

Last week, I walked into this establishment to pick up my order. As I approached the register the girl there never made eye contact with me nor did she greet me. She just ignored me. The guy on the register next to her did the same. So I stood there about 5 minutes or so; finally I was approached by a lady who was coming from the kitchen (I'm sure she could see that I was annoyed) she asked me if someone was assisting me. I said no, "No, no one was assistind me. I have been ignored since I walked in door." She apologized and asked how she could assist me. I received my order and promptly left. This was my 2nd visit to this restaurant; my first visit wasn't bad, but it wasn't the best. Therefore, I decided to give it another try. I will not be going back. They really need to work on their poor customer service. read more

Great food - always good to grab a bite with friends. Love be when they have live music upstairs.

Simply the best meal I have had in all of Louisiana. I'm in town working for FEMA, and I've I'm trying to hit all the restaurants in Houma. This place is amazing. Dinner salad, perfect size: perfect blue cheese salad dressing, perfect ingredients. Shrimp with fried green tomatoes: perfect combination. I could have eaten five of these for a meal. Margherita flatbread: I added green olives. It would have been amazing without them, but the green olives took it to the next level. Seasoned and cooked to perfection. Service was top-notch. read more

Food is always so tasty and great. They are a little on the pricier side for being a cafe but the quality and taste is worth it.

Best sandwich in a diner type setting. Very flavorful and delicious. Service was great as well.

Suuuch a cute place! The food and drinks are well-priced, portions are satisfying. They have packed many tables inside the space, but the decorating style makes it actually feel really inviting. Service is average, but the workers are kind enough, they get the job done. It was a good lunch spot for the family! read more

Food was great as well as the service. I was there for my grandson's celebration following his wedding.

Hands down the best little cafe in Houma! Fantastic food with great service in a comfortable, cute, clean, and friendly ambiance. It's hard to say which dish I enjoy most, but the shrimp and grits are really uniquely delicious and numerous appetizers are out of this world. This little cafe can compete with all they got in New Orleans when comparing cuisine dollar-for-dollar. I'm so grateful for this gem in Houma! read more

One of my favorite places to grab lunch in our area. I have never eaten anything that I didn't like. They always have great lunch specials.

Great neighborhood place. The menu is first rate and the owner is gracious and welcoming. Perfect for that Friday night unwind.

Another A+, with gold star. Liberty Cafe is def known to the local lunch crowd and the staff do a great job at keeping pace. Arrive early (11:15) for a no-wait experience. Burger, burger, burger, burger, burger. Hey, get a burger. They're great. The burgers are great. I've had them all, get one for lunch. So good. read more

531 Liberty Cafe is one of my favorite restaurants in Houma. I've been here multiple times and never had a bad experience. If you want a good burger, I highly recommend this place. Their burgers almost melt in your mouth they're so delicious. But if burgers aren't your thing, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. They also have different specials every day which keeps the menu new and exciting. And so far I've loved every special that I've tried. This is also a good place to get a drink after work. They have a great selection of craft beers and cocktails. This place is a hidden gem in Houma. Seriously, do yourself a favor and give it a try. You won't regret it. read more

The ladyfriend and I tried this place out for dinner one night because we went to a nearby brewpub that had a long wait. 531 Liberty Café was not very busy and I was somewhat surprised until they told me they were just starting to do dinner after only doing lunch for a long time. They have a menu that is heavy on sandwiches (primarily because of their strong lunch crowd) but for dinner they have more gourmet items like a smoked oyster pasta, grilled tuna, a pork steak, dunk wings and more. Saying all of that and I get a steak quesadilla. Sounds common like but it was slices of rib-eye, blue cheese, picked red onions, tomatoes and a balsamic drizzle on top. Quite good. It also came with a little jar of pickled veggies. These were amazing. I never heard of pickled broccoli but it works. They also make great cocktails as I had a perfectly made Sazerac that was as good as any in the city. So stop in and give them a chance at dinner and you wont be disappointed. read more

The food is really good the menu has a good verity. The bacon jam cheeseburger is incredible. The crab and cream cheese wontons are delicious. Don't miss out on this little gem. I personally think food networks drive in dinners and dives should visit here. read more

Food was excellent as always, this was my second time this week. Craft fees style food is there thing, the chef at this place is really creative and it's a place like no other in This small town. He has some great sandwich options, Paninis, wraps, fresh salads, burgers and nightly dinner specials just to name a few thiNgs on the menu. Today me and my fiancé enjoyed the tomatoe basil panini and an order of the stone ground corn grits and the Thai wrap grilled shrimp wrap. Great portions great service I'll def be back here again who knows maybe one more time this week! read more

Looked for something to eat to wrap up a quick Houma and was thrilled to find 531 Liberty Cafe. It is a cute little place off the beaten track with lots of great options. I love that they get local ingredients and think about healthier choices. (I didn't go for the healthiest options though... ;) and the bacon jam burger is so delicious- it's not just a "normal" burger- it's got layers of flavor. I will definitely go back if I get a chance to head back to Houma. Thanks so much for great service too! read more
