While waiting for the food (took a while to come out but, again, was very good), we had to hear this guy lay into an employee without any decency or regard for the rest of the restaurant. No attempt to go to an "Employees Only" or outside area. The whole time he was audibly pissed with everyone working there and made it well known. If we go again, we will get something to-go so we can limit our exposure to his toxic ego. Absolutely unprofessional and rather embarrassing. He needs to do better or get out of the business.

Their order actually arrived a little too early, so they didn't get to enjoy the food at its best, but they still liked it enough to convince me to give this place a try. I ordered a sandwich, and I have to say, they were right! It was really tasty and definitely worth trying. The prices are a little on the higher side, but I was happy with the quality and flavor. I had asked to dine in, but my order was prepared for takeout. Maybe I wasn't clear enough when ordering, so I didn't make a big deal out of it. The cafe itself is nice, clean, and has a pretty cool interior. The only real downside is parking. Finding a spot nearby can be a bit of a hassle, but other than that, I enjoyed my visit and would happily come back to try something else.

The menu has a nice variety of comfort foods to choose from. Turkey, meatloaf, etc., fried and broiled fish, burgers, etc. Portions are generous. I tried the fried haddock with 2 sides. I chose the fries and for a surcharge one trip to their salad bar. The fish had a nice crispy coating and moist interior. The flavor was ok. Fries were crispy and hot. The salad bar had a good variety of items and dressings, though the veggies, while ok, were not the freshest. My partner got the fried whitefish special. I suspect it was catfish in a seasoned breading. It was very good. Overall, the visit was satisfying, and I could see myself returning in the future for good, not outstanding home cooking.

They have four different kinds of deviled eggs, all which are made to order. The filling tasted so fresh and the seemingly small dusting of old bay actually elevated the egg so much. The fig sandwich was a daily special, so I'm not sure if it's available most of the time. The sandwich was good but a little too much cheese for me. Overall, this place is super cute and homey.

My son found The Girls Joint a few weeks ago--and of course, he had to bring his mama!…read moreAnd yes, mama is intentional. I'm a Louisiana girl myself, so the minute I walked in and met these two lovely sisters from Southwest Louisiana, I knew I was in the right place. What an absolute gem. I wasn't even planning to take food home--we were headed for a walk afterward and I didn't have a cooler--but I couldn't leave without trying the gumbo and their homemade sausage. These wonderful women literally made me a makeshift ice chest out of a cardboard box, complete with a bag of ice, so I could safely take everything home. They even wrote sweet little handwritten instructions telling me exactly how to reheat the rice and sausage. That kind of warmth and hospitality is Louisiana through and through. And then I got home and tasted the gumbo. OH. MY. GOD. I make a mean gumbo myself, so I do not give out gumbo compliments lightly. This was absolutely delicious--a deep, dark, rich roux, incredible flavor, tender chicken, and that fantastic homemade sausage. One of the sisters also told me they use fresh pork casings from a butcher for their homemade sausage rather than packaged casings, and you can taste the care that goes into it. The sausage is outstanding on its own and absolutely perfect in that gumbo. And now we need to address the great Louisiana debate: potato salad in the gumbo. I'm from New Orleans, and I have NEVER put potato salad in my gumbo. The Girls sent some home with me, though, so I thought, All right, I'm going in. And guess what? I liked it! Am I promising I'll put potato salad in my gumbo from now on? Let's not get carried away. But I thoroughly enjoyed it, and The Girls may have moved this New Orleans girl a little closer to the other side of the great gumbo debate. My son and I also split one of their s'mores cookies before we left--warm, gooey marshmallow goodness and ridiculously good. But what I may have loved most was meeting The Girls themselves. The food is authentic and wonderful, but so is the hospitality. There is something special about finding a little piece of Louisiana when you're far from home. I love that my son discovered this place --and even more that he wanted to bring his Louisiana mama there to meet The Girls. You've got a new fan. I'll be back!
