    The staff was lovely. I had an injury when I went and was accommodated right away. The food was good and did not save any leftovers like I usually do. Would love to go back to try the shrimp n grits.

    We arrived at our hotel late and wanted a place close so we asked the lobby attendant where he would eat and he said hands-down Daisy Dukes. It was almost directly across from the hotel and many of the tables were filled, which is always a good sign to me. It had a large menu so it was hard for me to decide knowing I didn't want too much because dinner would arrive soon. We ordered two menu items to share, the crab cakes with fried green tomatoes and a cup of veggie red beans and rice. Both came out very hot and the taste was delicious. The outside presence was not great but the inside taste and feel good was on point. Our waiter was very attentive, keeping our drinks filled and checking on us. This restaurant is not in the hustle and bustle of Bourbon Street, but just a few steps away and worth those steps.

    Saw the restaurant from my position on the parade route and was glad I stopped in. Atmosphere was electric. Strangers talking. Fod and drinks were flowing. Ordered a Hurricane that was made to perfection. My shrimp and grits were so good I cleaned the plate.

    Alligator & Sausage Omelette w/Hashbrowns and a biscuit

    Stopped in before we headed to the airport to return home. It was nice and quiet. We were seated at a booth and greeted by our server who pours mean mimosas (they were 2 for 1 so we did that a few times). I ordered the Alligator & Sausage Omelette w/Hashbrowns and a biscuit and the Lady ordered Blueberry Pancakes w/ bacon. The service was fast and great.

    Crab cake Benedict with capers, micro green and onion slivers

    Casual diner feel with excellent food and huge menu. I got the crab cake Benedict and it was amazing. Tasty, plenty of crab, and beautifully garnished! Hubby had a standard breakfast plate that included house made wheat bread. Full bar available Friendly efficient servers. Cook delivered meals.

    Pork chop breakfast

    Stopped in for lunch before our city tour. A quick snack turned out to be a huge meal. I ordered the cheeseburger with fries, i can only do almost half. The burger was huge and delicious. The fries were season with a good flavor, but very salty for me. My guy ordered the pork chop which was also very tasty. I had an ice tea which guess has mo refills, but ok water it is. The food was delicious, the service was a 3, the guy didn't come to refill my Ice Tea, but guess he was busy cuz he did chat with the next table extensively, hmm. They had good music playing which wasn't too loud, but old favorites. Would definitely visit here again.

    Service and food was great! I had the omelette and my husband had biscuits and gravy. We will definitely be back.

    Crawfish Ettoufe
    Kaitlyn L.

    We were craving a real taste of Southern classics, and Yelp led us here. It was poppin' during the parade but we were seated within a few minutes and served with water. I ordered the crawfish ettoufe since I had it the day before and fell in love with it. Safe to say, I really liked the one here as well. You could really taste the crawfish and the portion was so generous; Not to forget, the biscuit was delicious with butter. My friends opted for the New Orleans sampler and got a taste of everything. It was my first time trying red beans and rice, and I actually quite liked it. Gumbolaya wasn't my cup of tea, nor is gumbo itself, but smelled good nonetheless! Our waitress was hilarious and definitely joked with us a few times, but she was attentive and always refilled our waters amidst conversation and laughter. Only con was that their bathroom doors were kind of broken and swung the other way, but that was it.

    Great filling food, Large variety of menu offerings. Always a great Bloody Mary and mimosa to start your day. This is our go-to spot when in the downtown area. It's close to our hotel. There is another location closer to the Hilton we now prefer this location. Just a short walk but we'll worth it. Our food is always delivered hot and comes out at 1 time so we can all eat together. They have no problem serving 6 at a table.

    Breakfast Sandwich Breakfast
    Marla L.

    Unfortunately, not the best experience at Daisy Dukes Express. While we were able to be seated quickly, our not super complicated breakfast order for 4 ppl took over 50 mins to come out (waffle, pancakes, breakfast sandwich) By the time the food came, it was ice cold, and one of our orders had been given to another table, so it had to be remade. There definitely seemed to be a mix-up somewhere with the kitchen or service, so not sure it's indicative of a normal experience here...but it was ours.

    Stopped in during happy hour for an appetizer and beer...place was clean with a beautiful hand painted mural. Draft beer was 4.00 and chicken wings 1.00 each sold in orders of five. I got two drafts. The only complaint is they were not topped off....(short pull)...decent amount of the top not full. Wings were good. I would recommend for a nice clean inexpensive place to grab a snack or a meal.

    Went there for breakfast. The alligator sausage was surprisingly delicious. These waitress was friendly and allowed us to get coffee to go. Had a nice vibe with Afro beat music playing in the background.

    I've rarely been happier with a piece of chicken. The chicken and waffles were so perfect I ate here twice in a week. No regrets.

In the restaurant business, we all have a switch: once the doors open, it flips. Until then, you're seeing people exactly as they are. This team is genuine. Hands down. Yes, I know, I'm technically here for a king cake. Standing in line for a king cake from a famous fried chicken company almost feels satirical. But watching the entire team sit down together for a meal an hour before service told me everything I needed to know about the leadership and the values of this company. People matter here. You can see why the sandwiches are as good as they are. You can feel why the king cake is worth the wait. This team operates like a family; kind to one another, intentional, and connected. The food is made with care because the people are cared for. I'm not here to review the food (which is phenomenal) or the king cake. I'm here to review the brand. This is the kind of business we should be proud to support as a community. Keep it up.

I also like that they feature a daily special that isn't on the regular menu--it adds a nice element of variety. Everything is cooked to order, which is definitely a plus.

We arrived sans reservation, but were whisked straight into the courtyard -- arguably the best seat in the house on a pleasant Louisiana evening. Between the soft night air and the glow of the courtyard, the atmosphere alone deserved applause. The cocktails arrived first and immediately set a dangerously high standard: beautifully crafted, perfectly balanced, and the kind of drinks that make you consider canceling your plans afterward. Fortunately, the food rose to the occasion. The edamame and roasted Brussels sprouts disappeared with alarming speed, and the Amelie Salad was a standout -- generously portioned, fresh, vibrant, and substantial enough to be an entrée or ideal for sharing if you're pretending to be civilized. A special nod to Liz, who elevated the entire experience with spot-on recommendations, warm hospitality, and the rare ability to be both attentive and effortlessly relaxed. In a city famous for memorable dining, this meal still managed to feel special -- equal parts elegant, welcoming, and unmistakably New Orleans.

The host was extremely welcoming and friendly. Our server and helpers were over quickly to drop off waters and greet us. I ended up ordered the salmon. With it being so early and only one or 2 other tables besides my friend and me, the food did take longer to come out than I expected it to. Both of us did thoroughly enjoy what we got. The salmon was crispy on the outside with a nice sauce over it. We thought we'd have time to get dessert so we ordered a couple but that too took a very long time. We finally waved down our server to cancel and get the check since we had to be somewhere and he apologized and said their WiFi was going in and out so it could be that it was registering on the kitchen side. That may have explained why our entrees took too long. If it wasn't for the service and the food being great - I would not be thrilled about timing. We got there around 5:30p and had to leave by 7:15p so an almost 2 hours experience that probably could have been 1 hour.

The restaurant was packed, and the staff was moving nonstop--but what really stood out was how smoothly everything was handled despite how busy it was. The food? Easily a 10/10. The chicken had that perfect balance--crispy and slightly spicy on the outside, yet unbelievably juicy and tender on the inside. You can tell real care goes into it. The greens were cooked just right with a subtle hint of spice that gave them great flavor, and the slaw had a light sweetness that complemented everything perfectly. Service was just as impressive. My server, Tashena, was attentive, friendly, and kept everything flowing without missing a beat, even in the rush. You could tell she genuinely cared about the experience. I also have to shout out the manager, Whitney. She was incredibly uplifting, constantly cheering on her team and keeping the energy positive and motivated.
