TENS TENS TENS ACROSS THE BOARD IF I COULD. As soon as you enter you are greated warmly with a smile and if you are lucky it will be Joel at the door!! Joel is professional and kind; He's full of personality and definitely knows his stuff!! I highly recommend having a reservation. We were seated immediately due to having a reservation. The vibe of the location is the best. The colors and setting will brighten up your day. We'll thought out set up. Our server Aurry was amazing. She provided great service and awesome recommendations from drinks, apps and eats! Her personality was very pleasant and sweet. She was attentive but not overwhelming at all. Both Aurry and Joel contributed to the overall experience making it great. The FOOD was a HIT. Everything ordered was presented beautifully and delicious!!! The executive chef is definitely cooking very very well!!! We loved the Blue Crab Ragoon App as well as the Crab Cakes. There was nothing left on the plates. For entrées we had Banana Foster Pain Perdu, Side of Duck Bacon, Hashbrown, 100% Seafood Gumbo and Fried Catfish. Everything was seasoned to perfection and hot!!! Last but definitely not least are the Cocktails which were very good. Try the Cold Brew Martini if you like iced coffee type drinks and also try the Strawberry Lemon drop for a sweet treat. Both taste great and have a nice amount of spirits in them. This is a must try in NOLA. Will definitely return!! read more

Cracked Brunch was a little bit of a mixed bag for me, but there were definitely some highlights that would bring me back! I ordered the chicken sandwich with mac & cheese on the side. The chicken sandwich itself was really good and honestly ended up being the star of my meal. The chicken was crispy, flavorful, and the sandwich was filling enough that I was perfectly fine eating it on its own. Unfortunately, my mac & cheese was cold in the middle, so I sent it back and swapped it for the hash browns. The hash browns weren't really my favorite either, so at that point I just accepted that the chicken sandwich and I were going to ride this thing out together. My husband, on the other hand, is a TRUE breakfast person, so this was much more his territory. He ordered a steak breakfast bowl topped with eggs. He enjoyed it overall, but felt like it could've used a little more seasoning. He ended up asking for some aioli on the side, which helped give it the extra flavor he was looking for. Now the chicken and waffles? THAT was the fun part. The presentation was adorable, with the chicken served alongside the waffle cone-style presentation, and naturally I ended up eating most of his chicken. The chicken was really good, and even though I'm not a huge waffle person, I tried some of the waffle too and enjoyed what I had. It was definitely the more memorable dish at the table. I also really liked the atmosphere. It's cute, bright, and feels made for brunch, so aesthetically they understood the assignment. Overall, there were some execution issues with my sides, especially being served mac & cheese that was cold in the center, but the chicken dishes were good enough that I still enjoyed the experience. My husband enjoyed his breakfast overall, and I'd come back and give them another shot. Next time, though, I'm sticking with the chicken because clearly that's where they had me. read more

Crack'D Brunch was a solid Friday brunch spot. We came in around 10 AM with a party of 7 and were seated quickly. It was already pretty lively, but the restaurant is comfortable, spacious, and really well decorated. Our table covered a good chunk of the menu: seafood omelette, catfish sandwich, chicken & waffles, blue crab rangoon, blueberry muffin, and I had the Mac Daddy mac & cheese with fried crawfish. Everybody was happy with their food. We skipped the liquor, but the sweet tea was great. My only issue with my meal was the fried crawfish came covered in buffalo sauce, which I don't remember seeing mentioned on the menu. I didn't feel like sending it back and it was FINE, but I would've enjoyed it way more without the buffalo sauce. My friend specifically told me I had to mention the blueberry muffin She loved that it was organic and said you could tell the blueberries were actually fresh. Service was just okay. Kelsey wasn't rude at all, but she wasn't particularly friendly or engaging either. Maybe the automatic 20% gratuity has something to do with that, maybe not. And speaking of the bill... heads up: they won't split checks at the table, even if it's just two people. Also, $4 for a sweet tea?? WTF Overall though, the food was good, the atmosphere was fun, and everyone left happy with what they ordered. I'd definitely come back, but next time I'm asking for that crawfish with NO buffalo sauce. read more

I've been wanting to come here for so long so I'm glad I finally made my way. It was super packed so I'm glad I had reservation! Everything I had was really good and the service was good too despite our server being really busy! The monkey bread was delicious but we did have to ask for some extra sauce. The chicken and waffles were good too but I actually didn't try the cone that came with it lol. Also, aesthetically this restaurant is super cute! read more

Came in on a Saturday morning around 10a and was able to be seated right away! Our server came over shortly after , but I didn't catch her name. And honestly I didn't even remember her telling us. She was kinda cold fr! She didn't really seem to care to be there, in a weird type of way. Ngl the sandwich was nasty... the bread was hard and I don't know if the guacamole was dark because of the heat from the bacon and egg, or they have it just in a container.. who knows, but it wasn't the best. The mimosas were good, I mean it's mimosas. It's street parking and you will have to pay for it. Overall I won't go back, and it if I did.. I would stick to some drinks. read more

The local is nice. I loved the disco ball and the yellow accents. Nice ambiance inside withe cute photo ops areas. The food is averaga. I had the farmers platter and asked for the eggs scramble with cheese. The hasbrowns could have been more crispy. The duck bacon was ok. I'm just a lover for pork bacon. The service was a little lacking. Our server, Missy was cordial but so busy she was not able to check on us. Every time we needed something we had to chaser. At the end we asked for water and she never made it. I hope they get more servers to avoid this. read more

Decided to have a little bridal sprinkle here for my sister's wedding. This place was very cute in the inside. The staff were really friendly. Loved Joel he was entertaining. The food was delicious and the prices were reasonable. We had the duck bacon, so good and flavorful. I had the chicken and waffles. It was really good. I also had some of my sister's seafood omelette. And I appreciated that real crabmeat was used and plentiful. Also the sauce on top was delicious. I will definitely be back . read more

We were nicely greeted at the door and able to be seated quickly which was a bonus, as it was fairly busy. Server Missy was prompt, cheerful and provided top service. Among us, we had the Acadian Assets, and the Brisket Hash dishes, with a shared side of duck bacon. The Assets dish came out luke warm, and Missy made it right. The Hash dishes were worthy, however a bit scant on the brisket (I was expecting a hearty brisket layer). Overall a good choice for our work group as we were famished from a morning appointment. read more

Stopped in here before the Femme Fatale parade. Everything was great. Our server was nice and attentive. I got the strawberry lemon drop. What a great cocktail. I got sugar around the rim, but if you skip it, it won't take away from the drink. The chicken benny was good. I got a side of hash browns, but the portion of the chicken benny was so good that I didn't really need the additional food. My mom got the lemon ricotta pancakes and really liked them. We got here pretty early, so it wasn't busy, but if you want to go later than about 10 I would recommend adding yourself to the waitlist before you arrive. I'll definitely be back! read more

Thoroughly enjoyed my leisurely breakfast at Crack'd. I found it while looking for a spot during a weekend trip to New Orleans. Some restaurants can be a bit weird about solo diners, but the staff here was great about my table of one! I started with the crab cake appetizer, which comes with two good-size cakes. For my main, I got the farmers platter. They serve merguez (lamb) sausage and duck bacon, which is delicious, but if lamb and duck aren't your thing - be warned! Since I was using rideshare that weekend, I'm not sure about parking, but I did not see a parking lot. Most of the neighborhood is street parking. read more

This was my second experience dining at Crack'D, and it was disappointing. We were seated 35 minutes after our reservation time. We had to keep returning to the hostess stand to ask if our table was ready, what's the point of using OpenTable for a reservation if the automated notification feature isn't utilized? Once we were seated, we were quickly greeted by our server Kelsey, and our drinks and starters of monkey bread and crab rangoon, both were served hot and delicious arrived promptly. The service took a downturn when Kelsey, legit disappeared on us. It took 40 minutes to place our order, then another hour and half wait for our food, while dirty plates and empty glasses piled up on the table. When the food finally arrived, it was luke warm and not fresh, except for one friend's dish, which was hot. Our table ordered a seafood omelette, two steak and eggs( one returned back to the kitchen as the steak burnt), a chicken sandwich, and the chicken and waffles. With "large party" gratuity included (when did a party of five qualify as a large group?), our waitress had little motivation to offer better service, even with our almost $300 bill and a $42 tip that felt undeserved. read more

The location and presentation were both aesthetically pleasing, but I would not recommend eating here for the food. I will say that the monkey bread and latte was yummy. But, I was so excited to order the bacon tower and it was cold. We saw that the table next to us had theirs torched, so this could have been an oversight but it was nevertheless unenjoyable to eat. I was also disappointed in the croissant royale -- the cheese was not melted on the sandwich and the side of arugula was wilted. read more

Great menu with a good variety they serve brunch until 2:30pm and close at 3pm sat. Brie helped find some great brunch choices. I ordered the farmers platter, 3 over easy eggs,hash browns & toast with 2 lamb sausage and a piece of duck bacon. This is what I recommend if you can't decide. A little bit of everything with sweet thin coating on duck bacon, and savory lamb sausage and eggs My Wife got specialty mushroom omelette and said is fresh and tasty. Our server Brie sad bedtime is before 10am for brunch on Sunday We were sat right away at 2:15pm we just beat the 2:30 pm guideline to order your food before they close kitchen at 3pm. My 3 over easy eggs were could just right still runny and soft. I prefer has browns cooked more but it didn't detract from flavor. Next time I will ask for crispy hash browns. Great decor, a large variety of beverages including tea,coffee, cocktails and mocktails. Great name l, great service and really good food. Thanks for letting get crack'd in NOLA read more

When I arrived I was told there was a 45 minute wait. 1 hour and 10 minutes passed so I decided to go inside and ask about the wait time. After I asked, the hostess was able to immediately seat me. What I found odd was, 30 minutes past after I was seated, and I received a notification that my table was ready, which leads me to believe staff doesn't keep track of the waitlist, so if you plan to eat there, I suggest just waiting at the restaurant for quicker service. The atmosphere is fairly average, for a brunch restaurant, the presentation of some of their dishes is unique. The food, the smoked salmon rosti was delicious, however the crab cake benedict was fairly bland and the flavors in the dish did not complement each other which tasted fairly curious. I also had a cold brew martini (not pictured) which could have been better. read more

Great location, decent parking options. Benches to wait before being seated. I recommend getting on the waitlist before showing up. The vibe of the restaurant is A+ very Instagramable. Our server Bryce was very attentive but not pushy as some servers don't give you much time between receiving food and checking on you. The food, baby the FOOD!!!! Everything we ordered was fantastic. Well seasoned, cooked well. The Banana Fosters was surprisingly still crispy even with having a scoop of ice cream on top. This place is a MUST for you to try. Only 1 thing that I wasn't a fan of. Kelsey - not sure on the spelling. She was RUDE for zero reason, our server was busy but we needed small plates for the monkey bread (no picture because we started eating it immediately - DELICIOUS!!) I asked her and she barely turned her head to recognize I spoke to her, she replied with a quick yes and an annoyed look like I asked her to borrow money. Just nasty for no reason. Anywhoo - GO!! Go and GO! You won't regret it. read more

I want to preface this with, "this was my experience," and it looks like some people here had great experiences. Wish I could add to it but my visit was whack! We went because the place we wanted to go to was closed. The place is cute! Hip and cool! The hostess was friendly. Since we didn't have a reservation, we were giving a side table in the front. Nice bathroom too! Nice presentations! That's about all the nice things I can say. Yo said no one acknowledged her while I was in the restroom. After I sat down, she went, and no one came to me either. After she returned, we waited...and waited....and waited. Finally "K "came over and was not the most welcoming, no eye contact, no excitement, and we ordered drinks. And waited...and waited...and waited...but I noticed the two tables that were sat after us, already had their drinks. After she dropped off our drinks we ordered. And waited...and waited...and waited. The two tables ahead of us were already eating. So we waited, and waited. The family of four sitting near the window received their food, but one dish was missing. And they were waiting. They waited so long, they ended up getting the dish to go. The father did wave over one of the owners/managers. Here's the kicker. About 15 minutes later, a couple was seated next to us. When they ordered their food, the server told us our food would be up soon. But the couple got their food first! They felt bad! And then ours came out a few minutes later. The Dubai waffle was beautiful...but cold, like it had been sitting in the window for a while. I wondered if we had ordered the kid's size brisket skillet...small and "where's the beef?" What could've been a great breakfast was just wrong on so many levels! Sure, I could've said something, but I shouldn't have to. We were right in front. Two owners/managers and a hostess could clearly see us, but should also know what's going on, on the floor. Again, this was my experience, and I was on vacation. It matters. But for now, all I can say is, "Crack'd is whack!" read more

I will preface this by saying I believe the management is 100% at fault for the issues described. We waited for an hour for our food, which was not the best flavor-wise. We rarely saw our server, and when we did, he was loudly criticizing the problems he was having with his team and cursing right next to us. When we were seated, we ordered everything upfront as to avoid delays, but did not get our food until 45 minutes later. Our coffee sat at the bar and became watery from the ice and its overall quality was not good. We also got told at the very end that our banana foster toast was unavailable, despite ordering it an hour prior and not being told this then. Side note, when we order this we expressed that one of us had a tree nut allergy, but our server was initially stubborn to remove the nuts from the dish before settling on omitting it. The restaurant was too packed and too busy for the staff that was onsite, and better management could have prevented the issues that were also present outside of our dining experience. Tables of four were seated at smaller tables for two, causing dropped cups and broken glass. I rarely ever have a bad experience when dining, but this was perhaps the worst experience I've ever had. It disappoints me to have even written this, as I was extremely excited to try this place. I don't believe I will be returning until something changes. read more

Decided to go here for my aunt's bridal brunch. I've heard of it before and thought it'd be somewhere nice to go. I made reservations online Thursday night for Saturday afternoon. I received text reminders about our reservation and we received a text saying our table was ready 5 mins before our reservation which was nice. Once we arrived, we were greeted by the friendly host and he showed us to our seats. The decor is really cute and the music they played was nice. Our table ordered a few different things. We ordered the bacon tower, grits, brisket hash skillets, seafood omelets, and one chicken and waffle plate. Cocktails ordered were the slow down relax and the lemon berry vodka slush. For some reason the slush wasn't on the menu, but I saw the machines behind the counter and asked our waiter about it. I think if it was listed on the menu, or even on a little card on each table(like people have to display happy hour menus) more people would order it. My aunt was surprised when I received it and was like I didn't see that on the menu, I probably would've ordered one. It tasted pretty good to me, but was kind of on the higher side as it was $17 and the cup was small in my opinion. The brisket hash skillet was okay, but I felt like it was dry. The brisket wasn't juicy but pretty crispy. It needed a salsa or some kind of sauce to go on it. I asked my waiter and he said they didn't have any salsa or sauce for it, but that there was some kind of crawfish sauce I could get. I ordered that and it helped the skillet. However it was $5 and the sauce cup was really small. My aunt enjoyed her chicken and waffles and my other aunts enjoyed the omelets. Bacon was nice and crispy but did have a little kick/spice as it had red pepper flakes on it. My aunt said grits were okay but got stiff pretty quick. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves and our waiter Bryce , along with the host (I can't remember his name), was really nice. I'd go again but would probably get a different entree. read more

This really is the cutest place. I love what they've done with the decor. The omelet was ok. The flavor was good but I'd forgotten why I avoid crab meat in restaurants. There's always tiny bits of shell. Definitely not a deal breaker but enough to remind me not to do that. Service was good. I'd definitely go again. I went with a friend that didn't eat pork so this place is absolutely perfect. I love having them as an option. read more

Never needed a reservation during the week but Im sure weekends are a different story. This last visit I tried the hot honey chicken sandwich. It was really good and the fry connoisseur in me was very pleased with the crispy shoestring fries. The chicken sandwich had a great flavor but it was definitely more "hot" than "honey." The fried green tomato on the sandwich was the addition. read more

The atmosphere is hella cute! The restaurant staff was very kind and accommodating. Now to the food..... we had the steak eggs and hash brown entree which the hash browns was swimming in oil, the steak was a little cold but had really good flavor and the eggs were good. We also tried the ricotta lemon pancakes these were dense and heavy but had really good flavor. They were also extremely small. Now to the Duck Bacon....this was yumlious, drizzling some syrup on top and it was oh so good. The manager did come over to chat with us about our food and experience he mentioned the system in the kitchen glitched which caused an extremely long wait for food. I do understand that this causes a lot of stress in the kitchen and on the rest of the staff. He did make it right and apologized. We will be back to give it a second try. Overall cute place and a great location to host a girls brunch, bday brunch or what ever. There were a lot of big parties just having a great time! read more

Crack'D was such a fun spot to eat lunch at and very trendy. It did get a little confusing to find the entrance, but one of the helpful employees saw that we were lost and guided us to the door. I will say there was a strange strong smell of incense when we came in, but it faded after about 15 minutes or so. There's a good amount of seating available as well as two single stall bathrooms and a bar. We didn't have reservations, but we had no issues getting a table on a Tuesday. I ordered the seafood gumbo and the house salad. I actually loved the gumbo and considered it tied for 1st with another place for my favorite gumbo during my NOLA trip. I didn't love the house salad though -- it had too much vinegar and stung my lips as I was eating it. The cheese also didn't taste that good with the salad so I just poked around it. I also tried the white cheddar grits, which was just okay. read more

I returned here a few weeks ago on a Saturday. Again found nearby street parking to pay for at a reasonable cost. I made reservations but they were limited. So, we decided to show up as a walk-in at an earlier time. Fortunately a high-table opened up after only a 15 min wait. So, I cancelled the later reservation. The vibes were good. The staff person who tended to our table, Assata, was very cool. She was friendly, had good vibes and also had good food recommendations. On this visit I ordered the seafood omelet. It came with a small side salad. The salad was basically just greens and tomatoes but it was so fresh and tasty. I also had a cappuccino. I enjoyed everything that I ordered. read more
