Biscuits and gravy
Stephanie B.

For this diner, you wait in line to order. Then once you order, you're seated. It was probably a 15-20 min wait for us on a Sunday afternoon. Once we ordered, the food came out in 5 mins, it was shockingly quick! We got a pimento cheese dip and beignets to share. My favorite part was the saltine crackers that tasted like cheezits. The beignets were more dense than I would like. The chicken and waffles were delicious, just beware one of the cups has a liquid hot sauce- it's not another syrup container! The biscuits and gravy were also great. I appreciated that there's a water container so you can go refill your water whenever you need to.

Hot chicken and waffle

Roux is a lovely diner with nice ambience and a cozy vibe. We arrived for brunch and there was a line at the door. We waited about 10 minutes and then gave our order at the counter. You then seat yourself and they bring the food to you. I got the biscuits and gravy and my wife got the hot chicken and waffle. Both tasted great and were nice breakfast treats. My friend got a group items for the table, including beignets and pimento cheese. The beignets were warm and delicious. The pimento cheese was incredible as well. I especially liked the fried saltines that they gave to tip in the cheese. It tasted almost like a fresh, homemade Cheez-It.

Salad

Came here for lunch and got the Cold Fried Chicken Salad. Lots of seating inside and I like how bright it was inside despite it being rainy. I didn't care for the cold fried chicken. I understood that the chicken was supposed to be cold, but my gripe was that it was dry. The salad itself was yummy though. The lettuce was crisp and went well with the sweet cranberries and candied pecans. Big portion size. Service was efficient. I would come back here to try something other than their salad.

Biscuit

Mainly went here to try the beignets but also wanted to try other things. The biscuit and grits were great!! The food came out really quickly and the service was friendly. The cafe is a lot bigger than I had expected so it makes for a great place to sit and do some work. I didn't care much for the coffee unfortunately.

Fried green tomato tartine

I must say I don't love this place but I have people that I love that do love this place. So on this particular occasion I decided to order something different and this probably was my favorite thing I've ordered! It was light, flavorful and not doing much. If you like a Chicago take on a southern diner then this is a good place to go. If you're new to this they don't do waiting service you order at the front, find your seat and they bring it out. Really great if you're not into splitting checks.

Quiche

We went to try Roux Diner for the first time since we were going to MSI. It's a wonderful spot! We got: Beignets: 4/5 very yum snd fluffy! Classic breakfast: 4/5 very standard. I did upgrade to a biscuit and it's well worth! The spot is very casual and you order at the counter and pick your own seats. The service was fast as well.

Avocado toast with egg

Went here for breakfast. We had 2 toasts, beignets, 3 egg omelette and assorted coffee. Service was friendly and prompt. The beignets were the best I have had outside of New Orleans. Great casual joint which I would come back to.

I came back to try the classic breakfast again with a biscuit and bacon. 10s across the board. It's still very clean. The grits are one of my favs. Now the biscuit is at the top of my list as well. Ammaaaazzimg ! I also collect point through the toast app. The staff were pretty nice and helpful.

Chicken fried steak

Always delicious food. Diner but the food is much better than your average diner experience. Only knock is that it can get super busy and the wait can be a bit long. Other than that it's very much worth a visit.

This was our second time here & that says ALOT! we try not to repeat places, but I can most definitely say that this won't be our last! The food was amazing as an all day breakfast place too! I personally am not big on breakfast, but Roux has changed my mind. The inside is clean and well decorated, I loved the platters that they used as decor. The set up is a walk up order then they will seat you. Even if the line seems long, everything went by fairly quick! I think we were only seated for 5-10 minutes before the food came out. We tried the shrimp and grits this time around, and they were delicious. The shrimp were plum,p and the grits were cheesy and so good! We also got the beignets and omg the fluffiest I have ever had! The presentation was also so well done, they sprinkled powdered sugar on the plate, but it didn't overpower the beignets, so if you wanted more sugar, you could add it. The star of the show, in my opinion, are the biscuits. They are light, fluffy, and buttery. They paired it with this semi-spicy honey that complemented it well! Definitely a must go~

My experience was great. I enjoyed my food and I had a latte. I liked the quick service and friendly atmosphere. The bakery looked divine, so I'll have to come back soon for beignets and a cinnamon roll!

Avocado Toast

I like Roux.. the food is good (heavily salted ) but the set up and service leaves a lot to be desired. You order your food at the counter, take a number and search for a seat. Not my cup of tea for this price point.

Quiche of the day (red pepper and leek)
Jen S.

What a fantastic place ! Came with a friend. Delicious food! (I had the quiche, friend got fried green tomato tartine, we split beignets). Not sure if those from NoLa would approve but to me it was definitely like a place I'd go to in the French Quarter. I sat that like I know NoLa- ha. I don't I've only been there once. But it's great NoLa inspired food. Definitely would return. Good coffee too. Lots of seating. You order at counter and they bring you food. Please patronize this yummy establishment.

Classic breakfast with grits, biscuits, and sausage (hopefully a one off, burnt and rock hard)

How was everything?

It was good. A little more casual than I was expecting. I feel like you could hang out there all day studying or working.

This was my second visit and it delivered just as hard as the first. The Food What sets this place apart is the quality of ingredients. You can taste the freshness in every dish. The Service Attentive, friendly, and never rushed us. Exactly what you want when you're spending quality time with the people who matter. The Vibe It's cozy, warm, and the kind of spot where catching up with people you love just flows naturally. We lost track of time -- in the best possible way.

It's super nice back here! It started drizzling and the staff was quick to put up umbrellas. They have a really great team who was very kind to the two year old's we had at our table. The iced vanilla latte I had was really good! The actual food was hit or miss at our table, but I enjoyed my veggie skillet and eggs. Afterwards we wandered around the space and checked out some of the art. It's a really cool spot, and would be awesome for an event or company party!

Recommendations: Breakfast Meal…read moreBBQ Pork Bun Pineapple Milk Custard Bun We went to st. Anna for breakfast on Labour Day morning. We ordered the breakfast meal sets, which came with two mini pineapple buns and spam macaroni. We also ordered a breakfast plate with scrambled eggs and fried spam. The breakfast meals come with hot drinks and are only around $9, which is a great value. There are only 5 tables for dine in, first come first serve! The bakery also offers a variety of freshly made pastries and buns. Our favorites were the BBQ pork bun and the pineapple milk custard bun. Both were flavorful and fresh. It is a great spot for an affordable breakfast and some fresh bakery items.

Saint Anna is a traditional Hong Kong-style bakery and café offering authentic, high-quality…read moreproducts at very reasonable prices. Before the pandemic, we used to visit every weekend. Our family and extended family often ordered birthday cakes from them, and their mango cake was our favorite. When mangoes were in season, they used plenty of fresh mango in the cakes. Their cakes are always fresh, light, fluffy, and not too sweet. My daughter and I also love their individual cakes, especially the Black Pearl and Walnut Cake. Their pineapple buns and egg tarts are her favorites as well. Saint Anna has also been part of our daughter's childhood. When she was little, my husband used to bring her here before or after Chinese school in Chinatown on Sundays. Her go-to breakfast items were the Butter Bun, Ham and Macaroni in Soup, and Diced Ham and Corn in Cream Rice. As she got older, Curry Chicken with Potato became her favorite. She especially loved the potato cubes soaked in the delicious, mild curry sauce. She would always ask for more potatoes and less chicken, haha! Saint Anna is a family-run business, and Sara and Irene, the daughters-in-law, used to take care of the front of house. They were always so friendly and accommodating. After a 6-year hiatus, we finally returned one Friday recently when we happened to be in the area with a friend. Sara is now a co-owner, and it was wonderful to see her again. She immediately recognized us and was so warm and welcoming. She even asked me to relay her greetings to my sisters when she greeted us and again when we were leaving. Those little gestures made our return feel especially meaningful. We were still full from a big dim sum lunch, so my daughter picked up 2 Mini Pineapple Buns and 2 Paper-Wrapped Sponge Cakes, while I got a Red Bean Roll. Everything was fresh, soft, and delicious, and the total came to just under $8, really a great value. Our friend also purchased 2 Fried Sticky Rice Dumplings with Chicken. I had never really paid attention to their limited dim sum selection before, so that was a nice discovery. We love Saint Anna and will definitely be back whenever we're in the area.
