Everything about this restaurant is 5 stars. The staff, owners and even guests are everything you'd want in a local, family owned, mom and pop cafe AND the food is fantastic. As soon as I walk in the door with my children we're immediately WELCOMED by the owners who are always there on the front line working. Every. Single. Visit. As a single mother with young children that kind of greeting doesn't happen too often in food and beverage/hospitality industry. How you treat your guests goes along way. The one and ONLY thing I do not so much like but ok with, is they're not open for dinner. That's what you get with a mom and pop owned restaurant with family values. Seems like they hire local teenage students, instilling the value of work ethic at their age is so important. It's very refreshing for your belly and your soul visiting Cafe latte Da. Kudos. God bless. read more

This is the best local family-owned breakfast spot in the Elmwood area. Service is always fast and all of the employees are very friendly and helpful. The food is always hot and tasty. I recommend the garden and western omlettes with a side of potatoes and their homemade biscuits! The ambiance is very warm and welcoming with lots of locals and smiles. Highly recommend for wholesome family dining. read more

I feel like I have so much to say about this little place, but most of it is suggestions. First of all, the location is ok, but not great. It is kind of "off the beaten path," in the commercial area of Harrahan, which is ok, but I am guessing only people who live in Harahan ever really go here. The parking is fairly ample. As far as service goes, everyone seemed to be fairly professional. The lady at the register was helpful and efficient. When you walk in, you have to order at the desk, which I actually like better than table service. They have a wide variety of teas, including awesome herbal teas. This is a big plus for me, since I don't do caffeine. The breakfast menu offers a wide variety of options, but since I won't be heading out that way often, I decided to jump right in and get the eggs benedict with hashbrowns. It is my firm belief that if a cafe can get that dish right, everything else will be awesome. There is real skill involved in making even a decent benedict. When my breakfast came out, it looked ok, but since I eat with my eyes first, I would say that it would be worth it for the business to invest in slightly nicer plates and to add some green to the dish for color. A little parsley on the potatoes, for instance, wouldn't hurt, or even a slice of orange with the peel flipped up along side the eggs. These additions would be inexpensive, and would make the dish so much more appealing. The flavor of the benedict itself was good: lemony and well balanced. None of the yolks were overcooked. Still, I was missing the benefits of a "pretty" breakfast. As for decor, as a customer I dislike cheap/stereotypical kitchen decor, and this place is the poster child for "I went to Kirklands and bought some chef pictures." It would be great if the owner could, instead, find some local artists with Louisiana themed pieces, and put the art up on consignment. It will give the cafe a more personal feel, and the owner wouldn't have to spend a dime. Also, there is a nice little cubby in the center of the room...filled with things like Styrofoam to-go boxes and random, hodgepodge decorations. Maybe those things could be swapped out for a little merchandise like cute mugs branded with the business name. Most of all, the back wall above the large windows has an obvious mold problem, and I found this concerning. That stuff needs to be taken care of ASAP. read more

I hate having to do this because I love supporting local restaurants. But my experience here was so unsatisfactory that I hope the restaurant can make improvements after this review. I was excited to try this place for breakfast today with my girlfriend. We waited nearly 18 minutes after being sat down to get service from our server. The staff wasn't knowledgeable about their coffee and whether it has sugar. I ordered a coffee and an omelet. My coffee came with my omelet about 40 minutes later which was surprising. The omelette was alright and the bacon was delicious, but the coffee and the service was shockingly unsatisfactory. I want to really like this place so I'm willing to try again if improvements are made. Today was absolutely not The day thiugh. read more

As with so many other reviewers I had business in the area (or to be precise, my daughter did, at her dance studio) and stopped for cup of coffee and a small treat. The coffee was hot, fresh, and strong. I chose the turtle, as in McKenzie's turtle, as my treat. Did I say small? Oh well...unlike the half-dollar size McKenzie's turtles from long past, this turtle was three inches across with a fist-sized dollop of chocolate on top. My only issue was that the McKenzie's small turtle had the right "nut-to-mass" ratio. Here, the nut is more of a garnish, leaving one with too many nut-less bites. Most of the other patrons were ordering breakfast mostly plates with eggs in various forms and breakfast sandwiches. These looked good, but I have no direct experience with them. read more

Staff was absolutely helpful, happy and just overall fabulous! The food was so good, with sized portions. We had brunch and it was delicious! So many choices both with food & drinks. read more

The food is amazing. This place is a little pricey from your average breakfast but well worth it.

Got in excited to find a place with good average ratings across multiple platforms as I travel for business and like to look into the places i eat, but was rather disappointed by the service. As I initially entered there was a waitlist, which was no problem. My irritation began when the Two tables (a party of 2 and a party of 3) were behind me, a single person. Those tables got their drinks and coffee orders before i could even ask for water, which I frustratingly interrupted a nice waiter for 15 minutes after I sat down, which was significantly before those two tables got seated due to the waitlist and keep in mind got water and their coffee orders as well as their food orders in before I interrupted a waiter not assigned to my table for water. I eventually saw those tables get their food, waited 10 min, got up and left. Never seeing the food hit my table. I ordered a Denver omelette and a cup of tortilla soup, which was much less than the the tables that got seated after me. 1/5 star for the service and lack of attention or organization. I'm sure the food would've been decent, it has good reviews, but unfortunately the day I came the service was genuine shit, no one seemed to have acknowledged my obvious disappointment and I felt ignored. read more

Hamburger was huge and delicious French fries had a seasoning sprinkled on that was great. Grandson's grilled cheese was huge. Can not say enough about the service. excellent read more

This is a great little lunch/breakfast spot in a busy business corridor. I don't know that it's the best place for a quick coffee, but if you need eats. The last time I stopped in everyone was pleasant, even though it was a weekend. And my only big issue was the customers in front of me...who were relaying an order via a phone call for a delayed companion. C'mon. Try to hustle it up. I was between stops so got a breakfast biscuit to go and it was tasty. If I was in the area more often... read more

Great food! The staff was very friendly. Nice and clean. Best pancakes I have ever had in a restaurant. The biscuits are light and fluffy best ever. Must stop and try. read more

We used this company for their catering service and they went out of their way to make room and a great experience for a group of over 100! I had the pleasure of working with the owners and their responsiveness, customer service orientation, and of course, food, were all outstanding! Highly recommend for your large party! read more

Caffe Latte Da! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Harahan, Louisiana

Food was decently good. So, I post this picture because the manager in charge today she came up to us telling us very rudely that we didn't pay for two drinks. She even brought us out the check saying yep you guys didn't pay for two items, she repeated it a good five times. Keep in mind this is just minutes after we had barely sat down. She was saying it in a tone like if we had commited the worst crime ever. But, we didn't make the mistake it was the teenager taking orders she and the manager we're all over the place; they didn't communicate that we had already ordered our drinks and we assume since their the waiter's that they had note it down in the bill that they were creating since it's a order in the front counter restaurant. This system they had wasn't working well from them. I don't plan to ever come back here. The manager was way to forceful in speaking to us; made my breakfast sour. read more

Caffe Latte Da! - A orange juice and a frozen coffee. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Harahan, Louisiana

Found this place using Yelp for some comfort breakfast food after a funeral. Very good food and coffee. I didn't give 5 stars because they had sold out of grits (which I really wanted to try) and I had to give a tip before receiving any service which was kind of weird. But the service was great, so it worked out in the end. :) read more

Caffe Latte Da! - Crawfish omlette - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Harahan, Louisiana

We frequently go there for brunch on the weekends. Pre 19 and now they just have issues with service. The food is really good - why we go back, but be prepared to wait a while. It takes a while but the food keeps us coming back. read more

Yummy crawfish quesadilla made with Louisiana crawfish... very good. My complaint is with the pricing... the quesidilla, a small salad, and a coke cost me $15... which is a little outside of what I want to spend on lunch during work weeks. BOTTOM LINE: Food was good, but I may not return due to high prices. read more

I eat at The Da at least once a week (ok, more than that). Mrs Linda and Coach are amazing, as well as the rest of the staff. By far the best grits around! Now, they ain't healthy, but who eats grits to be healthy? read more

The Reubon was OK, sauce was too sweet, the ends of the Swirl Rye was too hard on ends,the mid portion was too soggy. The meat was delicious. I would not ordrr thst agIn,needs improvement..The BLUE cheese Coach Burger was a HIT ! The meat was sooo Good..ordered Med-Well. The entire Burger was Excellent / Fanastic, the Bun was also DELICIOUS, however i should have requested it be toasted..I would definitely return for this burger. I highly recommend you try it, very reasonable price..it seems you can order Full Breakfast anytime, looked Great...If its your 1st time. you read menu, then order at register. they hive u a # to place on your table..Had to wait awhile for food. but it was worth the wait overall...Restroom was clean n had HOT water n soap n napkins..The Staff was warm n friendly, Free Refills on Tea..Overall a Positive dining experience!!! read more

Great breakfast and service all greeted with smiles and the staff is wonderful. I love this place

Everything we tried was good. But just that, good. I am judging this restaurant based on New Orleans cuisine. For being in New Orleans, they should step up the bar a bit more. Other than that, mostly friendly staff. read more

Everything was great!! It's family owned and the service is outstanding!!! Definitely worth a stop!!!

Every time we come here, we have a fantastic experience. No matter how busy, they're always attentive, the orders are always right, and the food is always delicious. Try the frozen coffee: it tastes like a milkshake! read more

I have been on the hunt for a decent burger since c19 & I have to say *thank you!!* for the 1st real burger I've had in a long while the sweet roll is interesting the fries were just a tad underdone plus if you poke holes in the box & plastic bag (pin holes) to let the steam out so the fries don't get soggy on the way drivers - turn vent away from the food instead of on the food making it cold also use your seat warmers if available to keep the food warm to the ppl of Caffe Latte Da thank you for an excellent meal! read more

We have eaten here a few times over the last several years. Each time the kitchen appears backed up and there ends up being a long wait for routine breakfast food. Looking at the past reviews this seems to be a common theme. Maybe hire more cooks? Food is decent read more

Wow. Must be an off day. We were greeted promptly and told how process worked. We placed our order and then the wait began. Place was Not crowded. 30 min after placing order, paying and TIPPING in advance, no food. Teas are now cold. 5 tables around us have same bewildered look. The 3 bussers were more worried about not seeing the game. When asked (at 32 min mark) was told 5 or 10 min more , no explanation or apology offered. Too bad, we were hoping for a new Sunday stop. read more

Awful service. Very slow. Employees seem uninterested in working and will completely ignore you.

We followed Yelp reviews to this place. We had to drive a few miles off the Interstate but it was worth the trip. Every bite and every sip was worth the trip. The atmosphere is perfect, the owner/staff are on point and the guy that does the cooking knows what he's doing. Wow! read more

Caffe Latte Da! - Crawfish Omlette, biscuit and the creamiest grits ever. I didn't even have to add salt. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Harahan, Louisiana

Can't speak on lunch , but as far as for breakfast nice local spot. Affordable and delicious! Can't go wrong with any of the options, but the fluffy pancakes are my go to. Weekends are pretty hectic so be prepared to wait for the deliciousness, but if in the area and you're looking for comfort food make this place a stop. read more

Went for the first time yesterday morning for breakfast. The food was amazing and the service was great! We will be back.

Wonderful staff, very patient with our indecision. My date ordered the big breakfast with eggs, bacon, hash browns, toast and grits. He said that all was great. I had the hot Reuben and a salad. The Reuben could have used a little more stuffing but was still delicious. Salad was fresh and wonderful. Coffee was great. read more

Caffe Latte Da! - Hot Reuben and great salad. Big breakfast. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Harahan, Louisiana

We ordered online today after ordering by phone and having to wait much much longer than told for orders and it made no difference. We had to wait for over an hour longer than we were told for the order to be ready! It took over an hour and a half to get breakfast food that should take less than 20 minutes to make. I would definitely not recommend this place. We've had the worst service ever here without any explanations. read more

Wish I could leave less stars....waited roughly 30 minutes for someone to take our drink and/or food order. Never happened. Even asked a server if we needed to go up front to order or wait for him, to which he responded that he would be right back to take our order. Again that never happened. Promptly left after that. read more

Caffe Latte DON'T. I went to get a King Cake. Also ordered breakfast. Food was not that good. It comes to you on a paper plate which doesn't add to the appeal. Had to wait in line for the King Cake. I do not mind waiting in line except that the owner saved King Cakes for his friends and family while his customers waited in line. That shows his disregard for his customers. The guy at the register was accepting tips for the King Cakes. All of this made me not even care to get a Doung Phong King Cake. Very bad business practices. Caffe Latte DON'T... read more

I read some of the reviews on yelp so I decided to check this place out. That and the place was really close to where I live. Well first things first, time to talk about the service. It wasn't horrible but it wasn't good either.I mean they weren't rude or mean to me, the reception I got was rather cold. No smiles, a "Good Morning", or anything else to show that they really enjoyed my presence. The people behind the counter acted like automatons and not humans. I know I sound a little melodramatic but I just felt like I was ordering from a fast food restaurant. But despite this I did order anyways. The food I ordered was the Cajun Crawfish omelet special. It came with the omelet, biscuit, and so called "hash browns". The omelet was really good, I mean I never thought crawfish could be used to make a good omelet. The biscuit was okay but nothing special though. The hash browns were not actually hash browns, they instead used diced potatoes. Which is actually fine by me because I prefer diced potatoes instead of hash browns. But for everyone else I would suggest that they not lead people on like that. Inside its more set up like a coffee shop rather than a breakfast spot. Which would almost fool you completely into believing that it was a full coffee shop. The one thing I noticed when I went in was the fact that most of the tables were dirty. I know I have seen quiet a few reviews on here talking about how the place is clean and they might be right. I could have actually caught them on an off day. The one seemingly clean table I did find I went and sat down by it. Upon closer inspection I noticed the table was rather sticky, Ewww, Nasty! I felt really uncomfortable after that. But like I said before I may have caught them on an off day. Will I give them another chance, who knows? But I can say it probably will not be in the immediate future. In short this place has really good breakfast,But the sticky tables and robot like staff were a definite turn off. read more

Had a meeting a few blocks away this morning at 10am, but I ended up in the area at 8:30, scouting the business out (OCPD). Stopped here to get a cup of coffee and wait a bit. A decent little place, close to a lot of businesses. Free Wifi with password (coffee beans). Since most of NOLA doesn't really do breakfast, it must be nice to have a place close that you can get some morning grub. The prices seem to be decent for breakfast and like most "Coffee places" the coffee prices are too expensive and this coffee is a bit bitter. Nothing 6 creamers can't help. My over medium eggs were really close to correct. Better than most places. The hash browns are NOT HASH BROWNS. I think New Orleans cooks need to look up hash browns so they don't keep mixing up home fries for them. They were good home fries, but they were not hash browns. The toast was thick cut and toasted so...yeah. Toast. They has every assortment of jelly split up by type and all the condiments. So that's cool. I have to agree with the reviewer who mentioned that the waiter did not look happy...or even friendly. As a matter of fact, he didn't smile or say anything that wasn't the bare minimum for making the transaction happen. Even after tipping, he wasn't any more polite or friendly. read more

Not one of the four people working behind the counter greeted us or smiled. Tried to talk to a young blonde about their king cakes for sale and no response. The cashier took our order like a robot. No smile or comments when she brought our food. What is going on behind the scenes? Food was really good. Later an older man from the kitchen with dark hair and an apron asked if we wanted a coffee refill. read more

Caffe Latte Da! - Inside on a Sunday morning - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Harahan, Louisiana

First off, this place serves breakfast all day - until it closes which is usually 4 pm. I came here with a couple of co-workers and everyone got something different - burgers, salad, breakfast, quesadilla, etc. We had seven people and had a hard time finding a table for all of us. There were two large tables that could fit 7 people but they were already taken with smaller parties. We ended up sitting at a long-ish skinny table that was meant for 6 people, but everything worked out. I got the California Salad with Chicken ($10.95) which included artichoke hearts, hearts of palm, mushrooms, sprouts, tomatoes & blue cheese crumbles. When I first got the salad it looked very yellow (artichokes/sprouts/hearts of palms) but when I mixed up the salad it started looking more appetizing. The first few bites of the salad were great and everyone's food looked yummy, but then I took a bite of some of the chicken on my plate and it was just nasty. I would go back here but just avoid the chicken...maybe get a burger or breakfast :D read more

I've been meaning to update this review. The business must be under new management and for the better! Service is exceptional and the food makes for one of the best breakfast joints in NOLA. Quality ingredients and the bacon is second to none! Finally! read more
