    Crème Brûlée
    Crystal P.

    Stopped in the area to visit Bath & Body Works, and I decided to grab myself lunch. Overall, the food wasn't bad. The excess filling/liquid from crepe made it a bit soggy in texture/taste. I enjoyed the chicken salad croissant sandwich the most.

    I stopped here for lunch. The service was easy and fast. I chose the salad sampler. I had the petite caesar, cranberry and pecan wild field, and strawberry spinach bacon salads. They tossed in the salad dressings instead of serving them on the side. I wish I would have asked for a small dressing on the side because the tossed dressing was very little and made the salads a tad bit dry. I love the lighting here. Very bright and welcoming. Noise level was a bit loud but to be expected during the time I was there (lunch rush).

    Avocado Toast

    Finally paid a visit to La Madeline for a quick lunch. Nice clean restaurant with plenty of seating and we loved their Avocado Toast! It was to die for with my Chicken Caesar Sandwich it was a perfect lite lunch for me..

    The food was excellent and the service was great! Gregory was the young man bringing out the food and although he encountered a few unhappy, inpatient people due to it being busy he was very professional. Hardworking man and my husband and I were very appreciative of his service

    Coffee and croissant
    Monica J.

    The staff (as always) are nice and friendly.....genuinely friendly! They greet you upon entering and are very patient with me when I don't know what I want. Today I decided on coffee and a spinach omelette which comes with a croissant that I never eat. The only reason I didn't give a 5 star is because I hate being wasteful, especially with food. The croissant comes with the omelette, but I wish there was a way to just pay for the omelette and save a few bucks especially when I don't eat it, or to sub it out for something else without paying the full fee. Additionally, the plate was a bit greasy with a lot of fingerprints around the edges. Presentation is everything so it would have been great to have a plate that was nice shiny and clean, with the omelet in the center. I'm big on the details as it gives an illusion that the plate is dirty. The omelette, fruit, and coffee were very good though! I'll be back!

    Yummy!

    Love this place. Fresh food and the service is always great. Staff is so friendly and I love the areas to congregate, have a meeting or just relax in the cushy chairs. Pastries are to die for!!!!

    Quiche Lorraine
    Tanisha W.

    My favorite thing on the menu is the chicken salad croissant. I didn't care for the Caesar salad. In my opinion It had too much Caesar dressing, it was too wet. It was pretty slow so it was very quiet so the service was pretty fast. The quiche wasn't too hot so I didn't eat it there. Once re heated at home it was decent.

    Pitiful French dip, half of a sandwich hardly any meat. When ii. complained they said it's portion controlled. I do not recommend this sandwich.

    Took my kids here for lunch and we all enjoyed our food, service and the atmosphere was great. This new location is roomy, efficient and staff was amazing. We ordered easily and immediately sat at a table to start our soups salad and drinks. I liked that drinks are self serve and little bread with butter is available. We had a number at our table so they could bring our food when it was ready. Between the 4 of us, we had: -The French Dip with potato chips (hot, fresh and the chips were great!) -Kids Chicken & Chees Pasta with fruit cup and juice (No complaints from 10 yr old) -Pasta la Madeleine....w/broccoli & Mushrooms with sea salt baguette (big portion and I loved the sliced chicken instead of chunks) -Country Potato soup (not hot enough for my taste, but all my kids liked it) -Cranberry Pecan Wild Field Salad Drinks, we had tea, soda, juice and fancy mocha coffee. The juice is 100% and in a pouch for kids. The tea was ok. And the coffee was yummy. We also took bakery items home and they were wonderful!! Bathroom is shiny new and clean. Staff appeared happy and their uniforms were nice. Everyone was smiling, helpful and kind. All in all, it was a great lunch with my kiddos.

    I have to say District has stepped up its food and coffee game a lot. I have been frequenting their…read morelocations more and more, especially the Elmwood one. I recently discovered their boozy coffees and that they sell Vietnamese coffee - eff the world condensed milk glory! So, freaking good. During the holidays, they sell egg nog lattes which are creamy and so delicious. But if you want the boozy one, go with the District Lebowski. Jaw drop, so good! I still think the donuts themselves need more work - I wish they would taste sugary like the ones in Lafayette called Meches. The toppings are exquisite and those hot honey fried chicken sliders are the best! The staff are very professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. I kind of wish those boozy coffees were at the other locations, but other than that, keep doing what you are doing!

    District meets the suburbs…read more I've been to the locations on Magazine and Harrison several times but 1st time I have been to this one. This one feels like a chain restaurant (which it now is) and has no real personality being pinned in between a bike shop and a Jersey Mike's inside of strip mall. The kolaches at District are really good. They have a variety of flavors, I usually get a smoked sausage, cheese and jalapeno which is tasty but this time I got a brisket boudin and cream cheese kolache in a collaboration with Gonzo's. This was phenomenal. I also got a regular glazed donut. This was not that good. It's too dense and too thick. I like my glazed donuts to be light and airy; I want it to almost melt in my mouth. All of District's donuts are thick. Most of them are good especially the banana pudding donut. The issue is these aren't really donuts more like cakes or just a dessert. If you are coming to get your order to go this place is fine but if you want to hang out, I prefer the other locations.

Our server, Christopher, was very attentive, suggested wine pairings, and gave us great recommendations. We started with the charbroiled oysters which is a must. They were large and charred to perfection on the outside grill, topped with parm and breadcrumbs. My friends ordered the filet and the gulf fish, and I had the charred cabbage entree, with a French gerwurztraminer blend. The mushrooms with the blue cheese sauce were so rich and delicious! Sweet treats were a no brainer. The blue cheese flan was creamy and decadent. A perfect ending to the meal. This is so far my fave restaurant in New Orleans.

And yet again, I am so thankful for Yelp steering me in the right direction yet again! A short Uber from the French Quarter brought us to what I believe is such a special hidden gem! The moment you step into Atchafalaya, you realize it. Ambience is amazing, quirky, cool, homey and cozy. Staff is amazing. We sat in our own private room and were treated to a very special delight of a dinner. I tried the incredible fried green tomatoes, the seafood soup (?) and the incredible steak...wow, everything was amazing. And not only did Chef Christopher Lynch come out to say hello to my Autistic son but the owner Tony Tocco did as well and it made his day! HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

It's the perfect venue to enjoy a delicious craft beer paired with light snacks and appetizers. They have an awesome outdoor section that's ideal for large groups, events, or just hanging out with friends. I love the outdoor games and the relaxed vibe -- especially during the spring and summer months when they run their weekend crawfish specials. The beer selection is excellent with a wide variety of options, and the connected Bayou Wine Garden gives you even more choices. Happy hour here is truly one of the best in the city! My personal favorites: the naked wings and the Caesar salad -- always delicious. There's plenty of seating, great energy, and it's consistently a fun, easygoing spot to grab a drink, enjoy good food, and connect with friends. Service is great at both venues.

This place is fantastic whether you're popping in for after-work drinks, or even a platter of their seasonal crawfish (often cash only from the vendor, around $19 per box with fixings--check their Instagram for updates). a solid menu of bites like poppers, crab cakes, fries, and burgers, plus that expansive outdoor seating connected to Bayou Wine Garden, it's an ideal hangout to soak in the evening bliss of NOLA. The staff is typically kind and efficient, handling the packed crowds with ease despite all the requests. Give it a try--whether you're a local or a tourist, you'll feel right at home by the bayou.
