    Garden Gobbler
    Manami V.

    Since this cafe is located inside the Foyer, a very big boutique that sells artwork, jewelry, and other gift worthy products, at first I worried if I stepped into the right place because it was like a maze in there! But eventually I was eventually able to find the counter to order food (which is towards the back of the Foyer). I ordered the GARDEN GOBBLER and GRILLED CHEESE for my little one. The sandwich comes with a bag of chips and I chose a fruit cup for my other order. I love how there's so much veggies as much as the meat in the sandwich. It was delicious! We ordered to go from the counter and it came out so fast! I enjoyed the art work that is hung all around the eating area.

    Nut sandwich was awesome

    Ok I felt a little odd walking through this interior design store (Forum) to the restaurant in the back...but I'm so glad I did! The pecan and avocado sandwich was amazing and so was the red pepper soup! Support this hidden gem!

    Fav lunch! Large shack salad

    How have I not done a review of my favorite lunch place?! Since moving to BR, lunch at Heather V's have been my greatest hidden gem discovery! I was unsure about getting food here since it's in a shop, but I read so many great yelp reviews and gave it a try. It was a double win since the Foyer is also a fantastic place to get local gifts! Pro tip: while this is a lunch spot, they will also be serving breakfast during the holiday season for the Foyer's extended hours. The first thing I ordered here was a combo lunch, and I was so obsessed with the shack salad that it's now the only thing I order! They have a variety of fresh salads, sandwiches, and a daily soup option. The Shack Salad is a fantastic salad topped with golden raisins, tomatoes, onion, hearts of palm, feta, and tossed in a lemon Parmesan dressing. I suggest adding their chicken and a side of the sensation dressing. I could drink a gallon of the sensation dressing. It's a creamy, garlicky dressing made in house. Don't skip out on the side of garlicky Parmesan bread either! Heather V's is my absolute favorite place to grab a salad in BR. You can also call in an order and pick up carry out. They always have my order ready in about 10 minutes. Their staff is always friendly and welcoming. Check out this hidden gem for the best fresh lunch in BR!

    The ultimate "secret garden" of lunch spots! A definite must-try!! Upon entering the Foyer gallery and zig-zagging through this artistic labyrinth to find my way to the rear, I encountered beautiful antiques, paintings, sculptures and furniture to finally arrive where the cafe was located! I immediately knew the food was going to be amazing, when I noticed the line was long and the cafe was filled with many hungry lunch-goers. It was a superb experience from the beginning! The cafe was nestled within all the exciting art work, furnished with rustic and antique-y tables/chairs. Even the bathroom did not look like a bathroom...it was a mini art gallery!! They are only open from 11am - 3pm M-F (closed on Saturdays), so it is the perfect place for lunch! I ordered the Shack Salad: mixed greens, hearts of palm (my favorite part), feta, tomato, cucumber, golden raisins with a zesty lemon parmesan dresing and topped with fresh Romano cheese! The great thing is there is a "small" & "large" option for most of the salads. Thank you for doing that...some do not have big appetite, so the small is a perfect size! Plus, it comes with a piece of garlic toast (a little of that buttery-garlicy goodness won't hurt, right)? After I finished my lunch, I just sat there and took it all in...the beauty of the art pieces and just the feeling of comfort and contentment made me want to stay! The owner of the cafe - Ms Heather V herself was an absolute delight!! You can just see her passion for food come through! I was also so excited to hear that she offers catering of this marvelous food, too!! Thank you for such stellar experience!! I am going to be back very soon!! Looking for a great lunch place if you are close to Acadian & Perkins? Come here...experience this eclectic cafe!

    Green Onion and Havarti Grilled Cheese

    I stumbled upon this place located INSIDE a business called "The Foyer" on Perkins near Acadian. I love discovering "hidden treasures" sorts of places and telling other people about them so I thought I'd give it a try, in hopes that this would turn out to be just that sort of thing. In a word: It was. Tucked away in the corner, weaving your way back through little nooks and display areas - you eventually come upon a smallish, unassuming little cafe in the back, right portion of the building. Because it is situated in what I would call an Art Gallery/Home Furnishing kind of store, despite its size it has a simple, stylish, artsy feel with lots of works from various artists adorning the walls - and quite nice works at that! On to the food: I didn't order from the menu but am including pictures of it for the curious. Instead I ordered the two specialty items of the day: a cup of lentil soup with kale, olive oil and Romano cheese and, as an accompaniment, I ordered the Green Onion and Havarti Grilled Cheese. The sandwich came with a choice of packaged chips. Both were very well done, in my opinion. The lentil soup was hearty and tasty without being overly busy. The kale and Romano cheese were a nice addition to what I have typically seen. The sandwich was also nicely done. I would personally have grilled it a bit more with a little butter - but not everyone has my obsession with butter! The green onion and Havarti were generously present, and the flavor was very good and not overstated. Dipping it in the Lentil soup seemed the way to go and it ended up being a nice pairing - which I'm sure they intended. The only thing missing was a Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio! Maybe another time... All in all, a nice little spot and great find, for me. The menu has some other items that I will want to try in the future so looking forward to a return visit.

    Yumm.... beautiful and delicious. The curried pumpkin and crawfish soup is off this world delicious. Quality comes first here.

    Hands down best lunch place in baton rouge. I have had practically every item on the menu and would recommend them all.

    It's Simple as the name suggests…read more Nothing fancy or elaborate about this place. It's a small restaurant with a small open kitchen and a small dining room where you stand in line to place your order, get a number to put on your table, and servers bring the food to your table when it's ready. So, if you're looking for a large upscale, elegant restaurant with elaborate food presentations, this is not the place for you. But if you're looking for a simple, quick and delicious meal, Simple Joe Café is for you. The menu consists of a wide variety of breakfast favorites, but the menu is not intimidating and easy to read and order from. Simple enough. When my family and I arrived, the small dining room was packed with a few open tables and about six other customers in line waiting to place their order. On Saturday and Sunday, you cannot sit at the open tables or hold the tables until you have placed your order and given a tent number. At that point, the servers will help you find a table to accommodate your party. The employees do a very good job of clearing and turning over the tables to make sure everyone is seated and able to enjoy their meal in a timely manner. I am not a fan of breakfast food and normally don't eat breakfast, so I only had coffee while my family enjoyed their meal, so the food quality part of this review is based on what they described as they were eating. They each ordered Joe's Number One Breakfast Combos which came with two eggs, choice of meat and pancakes and they shared an order of hashbrown and a side of grits. The food came out quickly. They stated everything was fresh, prepared and cooked as requested, the food tasted very good and enjoyed every bite. Of course, the coffee was hot, and fresh and the service was fast and friendly. The relaxed ambience and decor add to the unique character of the restaurant. Date of Visit: Saturday 05-16-26 Simple Joe Café | 3057 Government St, Baton Rouge, LA

    This place is awesome…read more I ended up here the other day not because I planned ahead. Instead, I was trying to meet a friend for lunch and he was so late that we couldn't get in where were trying to go. I saw the sign and off we went to Simple Joe Cafe. Simple, it is. Awesome food, it also is. This place is not fancy nor is it meant to be. This is a solidly Americana type menu and ordering at the counter, serving your own coffee, and picking your own table kind of place. AKA - the kind of place I love. I have been here a few times now and only had breakfast. Hint: they serve it all day. The two meat omelet is a great choice and has been my go-to. The other day some friends got burgers and a club sandwich and those looked great too. This will definitely be in the rotation for lunch.

The food was amazing. I had the Southwest Omelet which came with brisket inside cheese and avocado. Everyone else at the table had a bite of my omelet it was so good. It came with potatoes. I also tried their biscuits and cinnamon butter and they were chefs kiss. Perfectly made. The grits were a 1000/10. The best grits I have ever eaten and I've eaten man grits in my life. The service was so great. We had an amazing waitress who was so sweet and helpful since it was our first time and was able to help our large group during our visit!

Haylen was our server and did an excellent job, very attentive, and all of the food came out incredibly fast. I ordered the hot sausage biscuit with cheese grits, simple but absolutely delicious. Everyone in our group enjoyed their meals. I also tried several mimosas (lavender, watermelon, and classic), and at just $3 each, you truly can't beat it. The food prices were very affordable too, which is a huge plus in this economy. The space was cozy and charming, almost like dining inside an antique shop. Overall, a great experience, and I can't wait to come back and try more items on the menu.
