This was my third time in Nola and I finally had a chance to get a table because they are always so busy. From the food to our waitress and staff was incredible. I didn't get any pictures because my food was gone before I realized I needed one. Very tentative and very tasteful. You can tell this restaurant family takes pride in what they do and really enjoy their customers. I am so glad we came and we will definitely be back! Thank you for the wonderful hospitality. read more

This spot was on my list as soon as I booked my flight to New Orleans. Finally made it here with my boyfriend on our last day. We were greeted promptly and greeted by our server Jonathan. Jonathan was great and very friendly. We started with coffee. It was delish and fresh. For my meal I had the biscuits and gravy. It came with eggs, bacon, and a fried green tomato. Everything on this plate was absolutely delicious in flavor. The sausage gravy was one of the best I've ever had. Biscuit was airy and delish. This meal was made with love. My boyfriend had Bananas Foster Pain Perdu. Delicious as well. It was nice to see it was made with a baguette vs other bread. He enjoyed it a lot. I had a bite and enjoyed it as well. We also got a side of chorizo and a side of pork sausage. The chorizo as also the best we've had. A super delicious, filling and fresh breakfast! read more

It was Mardi Gras time so it was busy, I get it, but the service, albeit friendly, was slooooooooooow. I know this is the south and things tend to move slowly, but uh, can we eat today?' Our server was great, very friendly and sweet. Food was yummy, the fried green tomatoes were a joy, salad was also pretty yummy. Would I return, sure, I just hope to get our order taken a teensy bit quicker. read more

Originally passed this place a few days ago. Line was rather long so decided to dine at a place a block away and realized why there was no line! Went there early yesterday. Fortunately they got us in right away. Decided to get the Southern Breakfast with another biscuit and a side of gravy. Food came quick! Grits were really buttery and the biscuits were fantastic. The fried green tomato was good. Bacon was flaccid. Would definitely come back. read more

Gosh, the hype is real. We were lucky to snag a table without a reservation + waitlist but we saw ample seating at the bar. Our server was fantastic! And the food was extraordinary! This is the comfort food that you come to New Orleans for. The beignets were scrumptious and the shrimp and grits was everything I dreamt it would be! There was so much flavor in every bite, it's certainly a dish for two because it's hearty! The biscuit was buttery and flaky and the drinks are poured heavy ;) read more

100% came for the mix and match bennies. I had planned out my day to find a place to grab lunch after getting a massage and heading back to my Airbnb to get ready for my cousin's wedding. This place popped up along my walking route and as soon as I saw the menu, there was absolutely no question where I was going lol. The only issue is - how can you decide on bennies?? There were SO many yummy sounding options! I was sitting up at the bar and the bartenders were so lively and helpful! I ended up getting the Chicken St Charles, and they told me about a special crabcake bennie they had so I did that one as well (since I was originally thinking the shrimp bennie). I also had the mimosas flowing of course lol. The bennies were very yummy, especially that crabcake! The place was hoppin and lively while I was there, def a great option for Saturday brunch! read more

Very cute cafe! Was suggest by a local friend so had to try it out. The mimosa flight was pretty good but the star was the Bacon Bloody Mary! Absolutely delicious! My Fried Catfish and Grits was a 10 out of 10! Unfortunately the fried green tomatoes were lack luster also serving diced tomatoes on top of more tomatoes made no sense. I love fried green tomatoes so this was disappointing. Service wise everyone was nice and we got sat pretty quick. But the server wasn't very attentive. They were closing about an hr after we got there so I get it she was trying to get out of there (it was Lundi Gras) but still pay attention to your tables. Also the fact that I got my appetizer and there was no silverware delivered tsk tsk. I saw two servers in the corner, rolling up more with napkins. The fact that had to get up and get it myself was disappointing. Couldn't even get anyone's attention to ask for it. I rate the service about 4 out of 10. Otherwise my experience wasn't horrible I would go back for a 2nd try. read more

I first visited this outstanding restaurant when I came to visit New Orleans in November of 2023 from California. It was down the street from my AirBnB. From the moment I walked in I felt at home! The staff, the environment, the food, all top notch and believe me, I am super picky about service and only want great food. I even met the love of my life having breakfast there. Woohoo! Now having lived in New Orleans for almost a year, I dine here 2-3 days a week, it really is that good! Few restaurants can match the synergy of this staff, the consistency of the food, and a true neighborhood feel. Thank you to everyone at The Slipper for being so great.

The ambience here is casual. The food was generally good. I highly enjoyed the fried green tomatoes but wish they gave more in an order since they were really small. The breakfast tacos were in what appeared to be store bought flour tortilla (not great) so I ended up just eating the insides of the tacos. However,they were kind of bland and needed some seasoning. My friend who ordered the shrimp and grits enjoyed it thoroughly and my other friend said the fried chicken eggs benedict was lovely. The biscuits are fluffy and buttery so I highly recommend getting one to try. The amaretto iced coffee was a major favorite as was the blueberry lavender mimosa. The mimosa came in a full wine goblet rather than a more traditional champagne flute but not to worry because you can ask to take it to go if you can't finish it up there. This is a nice New Orleans chain where you can get a nice hearty brunch for a decent price. read more

This is a local chain, and it doesn't quite have the charm of the funkier, more independent eateries you can find in NOLA. That said, it's cute, and the waiter was very friendly. Agree with other reviewers that it's a little slow -- don't go if you're in a hurry. We went first thing in the morning, and they weren't quite ready for us -- luckily, we didn't really want anything they were out of, but still... The food we did have was really good. I had the Eggs Blackstone bennie, which was delicious. My husband had the bread pudding pancakes, which were really good, but VERY sweet -- I would have needed more balance, but he definitely enjoyed them. The coffee at a place like this should be great, and it wasn't; it was fine, but not memorable. Good food, but not a place that is going to sear itself into my dining-out memories, especially in New Orleans. read more

Brunch spot is the place to be. This ruby location meal made my stomach so full and satisfied that I'm so glad I came here. From the welcoming staff, to the trifecta delicious goodness, to the seasoned with heart foods. Trifecta: fried chicken bomb af, pulled pork nice and textured, and shrimp omg yes pls more! Biscuits and gravy was hefty. But well worth the price if my friend didnt eat off our plate and ate hers haha. It was good if we all just shared the trifecta. Salmon omelette was good. Beignets was not too fluffy and a lil hard, wouldn't recommend (?) Kind of thrown off their plates was a lil dirty and the forks and knives could do a better wash. But i wiped it off. read more

I typically visit NoLA every September. There are lots and lots of great restaurants in and around the French Quarter to choose from, but the Ruby Slipper stays on the top of my list. We typically visit the location in the French Quarter, but since I visited 2 weeks after Ida this year, that location was closed. Yelp helped me identify that this location, just outside the Quarter was indeed still serving food. We walked the 4 blocks from Esplanade to find the restaurant tucked inside an old bank building. Because our visit was right after the hurricane, mostly locals were inside. The restaurant was unusually quiet and the menu was greatly reduced because shipments were still being affected. Still, the staff were all very friendly and great at communicating why things weren't quite "normal". I ordered the Blackstone Eggs Benedict and my friend got the Peacemaker, another version of eggs benedict. Both were delicious. Aside from the top notch brunch menu and boozy coffees or cocktails, it's really the people and the atmosphere that does it for me. The restaurant is really queer -- in a safe welcoming and celebratory kind of way. There were lots of Pride flags and t-shirts both for sale and on the servers. Many of the servers were a part of the LGBTQ community, as were many patrons. It's always nice to walk into spaces that exude queer joy. Our server was really friendly. He flirted back with my friend and even pulled up a chair for a bit to share some of his experience with the city during Ida. If I hadn't already been sold on the food and atmosphere, the story he shared about his company (the Ruby Slipper) would have done the trick. He explained that the ruby slipper has several locations. Four or five, I believe. The main location in the French quarter has a giant walk-in freezer. That seems to be the location where they store the majority of food for the restaurants. After the hurricane, the city was without power. If you don't have power, you can't keep food safe. The ruby slipper wanted to ensure that not only the food was used, but that their workers weren't left without hours and a paycheck. They invited their workers to help unload the freezer, and cook meals each day. The meals were then delivered to a free food location the city had established, to help those in need during the power outages and hurricane crisis. He shared that the first day they made over 150 Poboys. The next day they made gumbo which served over 100 people. They did this until all the food has been used. As if that weren't kind enough, they went a step beyond to ensure their workers were still paid. They offered everyone the opportunity to continue working inside the restaurant, at a flat hourly rate, doing deep cleaning. Our server was so grateful for those hours. He himself had been without power and taking cold showers for over a week. When looking to support a small, local business, it's stories like these that matter. The ruby slipper has a great atmosphere and serves some really delicious brunch foods, but it is the care and intention behind the company that make me sure I will visit the ruby slipper every single time I visit in New Orleans. read more

with many locations throughout NOLA, this particular one is located in a more quiet area. Outwardly, this location has a lot of history! It is located in an old bank building that according to old local legend, was robbed by Bonnie and Clyde in the 1920s. This aside, the menu was delicious! I would only have to complain about the lack of vegetarian and vegan options but we made do. the service was excellent and very friendly, as is much of NOLA. Would go again. read more

So, the food was so good on Friday that we came back on Saturday! I was so excited that I didn't even get any pictures of the food. Of course, I ordered another Gingerbread Latte. It was a little different this time, but still delicious. This time I had the SOUTHERN BREAKFAST with Two egg whites, stone-ground grits, applewood-smoked bacon, fried green tomato, and a buttermilk biscuit. I also had a side order (1) of the PEACHES & CREAM PANCAKES (Filled with caramelized peach compote, topped with whiskey cream sauce, fresh peaches, and whipped cream). We tried to purchase one of their shirts, but they ran out of the red "Brunch people..." one. Run don't walk in!

I see No Wait app sends me here. Am I still able to get into line?

If there's no wait, there's no line...it seems to update in real time because I kept refreshing it when it said no wait, and then it popped up there was a 5 minute wait. That was when I was able to "get in line" on the app.

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!!

We checked into our nearby hotel a bit early in the day and was looking to hit the streets for a spot to get a chill/light breakfast, a coffee and maybe a cocktail. We found all the things at Luzianne Cafe. Whether you belly up to the bar or grab a table, both of which are first come first serve, you start at the counter where you order, pay and grab your table number. It appears that during busy times they allow you to sit first and order from the QR at your table, this is an assumption given the code to order at the table, but the sign at the entry directed folks to the counter to order before sitting. For breakfast, we got the breakfast biscuit which came with eggs, bacon and cheese, and sided it with grits. The breakfast sandwich was solid, eggs were a bit soft and grits were more mealy than we are used to, but I think that may be authenticity of the area more than anything. I opted for the three option omelet with onion, sausage and gouda plus a side of sausage links. The omelet, though odd sounding combination turned out to be solid. Maybe it was my options, but it was decently "one note" in flavor. I tossed a little hot sauce on and that helped. However, while the sausage links were not much to look at, they were tasty, with a nice snap to the casing and meaty inside. To go with our breakfast, I got a cold brew with a splash of almond milk while my partner embraced NOLA and started his day with a bourbon sour. Both of us enjoyed our choices! Service was friendly and helpful at the counter/bar. The food runner was nice and then another member, assuming the Manager, that stopped by to check on us mid meal. She was super friendly and nice.

How have we missed this place? Have been visiting New Orleans for well over 25 years and had never eaten here. We have now and it will become one of our "go-to's". Food and service were excellent. Asked our hotel which location to go to and they recommended this one not only as being close but also they did not have a waiting line when they checked. We headed over and by the time we got there, there was a waiting line, we were told 30 minutes and it ended up only being 15/20 minutes. We were seated and noticed the decor was summer inspired, with items hanging from the ceiling that made us think of the beach and summer activities, being Labor Day weekend it was reminiscent of the summer that has now passed us by. Remy, our excellent server was right there to answer any questions and to get us started. We decided being on vacation lets have a breakfast drink I had a Morning Margarita and husband had a Peach Belini, both excellent. Remy then put our order in and the food came out in a flash, hot and tasty. I had the Southern Breakfast with a an extra side of breakfast potatoes and the husband had Eggs Cochan Benedict with an extra side of grits. My eggs (scrambled) were hot and fluffy and the grits nice and hot. My biscuit was hot and soaked up every bit of butter I slathered on it. Cause you know butter makes it better. Husband had Eggs Benedict at other places over the weekend but these made with a biscuit (vs French Bread or traditional English Muffin) to "sop" up the yellow when he cut into the eggs was better than others he had. Again, he added more butter to his grits because as you know butter makes them better. We ate every last bite and then enjoyed a cup of coffee (his iced, mine hot) as we let things settle. We basically had to waddle away after eating all of this. I was disappointed that I did not have enough room to try the banana pudding beignets. Something to look forward to next time. Will definitely be back. read more

This was probably the worst restaurant experience I've ever had. My group and I (7 of us) were in town for a bachelorette party celebrating my best friends engagement. We were told this spot was one of the best brunch spots in town. This was unfortunately not the case for us. We put our name on the "no wait" list which was suggested. Upon entering the establishment we were told there would be a 60 minute wait. We explored around town and came back 60 minutes later. The staff running the wait list seemed very irritated that we asked if our table was ready. It wasn't until another 45 minutes that we were finally seated (1 hr 45 minute wait at this point). Unfortunately this is not where our bad experience ends. They said one chef walked out that day or the day before but this was not communicated until 2 hours later. When we ordered our food, 4/7 of us ordered the peacemaker (a choice of two specialty Benedict's). About an hour after we ordered, our server informed us that they no longer had biscuits for the Benedict's...as we looked around we saw two other tables (who were seated after our group) with plates of biscuits. We were told we had to choose a replacement for the biscuits (sourdough, multigrain, etc). At this point we are passed an hour waiting for our food and reluctantly chose the sourdough bread because we had already invested about 3 + hours into this meal..we then asked to speak with the manager immediately. About 15 minutes later the manager came over and apologized and said she had been cooking on the line. She offered to discount our food 50%. The Chicken St Charles was cold. We should not have even been charged at all. We wasted HALF OF OUR ENTIRE DAY dealing with this mess of a restaurant. read more

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Ruby Slipper in the Marigny neighborhood of New Orleans, and it was an absolute delight! From the moment we walked in, the service was exceptional--warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu, offering spot-on recommendations with a smile that made us feel right at home. The shrimp and grits were a standout. The Gulf shrimp were perfectly sautéed with pork tasso, bell peppers, and a rich beer and rosemary-butter reduction, all served over creamy stone-ground grits. Every bite was a burst of Southern comfort with just the right balance of flavors. The accompanying buttermilk biscuit was flaky and delicious, soaking up the savory sauce beautifully. The Eggs Benedict, particularly the "Taste of Ruby" sampler featuring Eggs Cochon, Chicken St. Charles, and Bayou Shrimp, was equally impressive. Each variation was executed flawlessly--poached eggs cooked to perfection, perched atop fluffy biscuits with creative toppings like hollandaise and tasso cream sauce. The Chicken St. Charles, with its juicy fried chicken, was a personal favorite. The atmosphere in the Marigny location is vibrant yet cozy, capturing the soul of New Orleans with its colorful decor and lively energy. Despite being busy, the staff kept everything running smoothly, and our food arrived promptly and piping hot. Ruby Slipper truly lives up to its reputation as a brunch haven, and I can't wait to return for another round of their incredible dishes and top-notch service. Highly recommend! read more

Absolutely phenomenal experience at Ruby Slipper! From the moment we sat down, we knew we were in for a treat--but Tony, the bartender, took it to the next level. His exceptional service, spot-on recommendations, and friendly, welcoming personality made our visit unforgettable. The "trifecta" was simply astounding--each bite better than the last, with eggs poached to absolute perfection. My wife had the biscuits and gravy, and she couldn't stop raving about how delicious and comforting they were. And the mimosas? Absolutely amazing! Perfectly balanced, refreshing, and the ideal complement to an already incredible meal. Huge shoutout to Tony for making our morning so special!

We told them how much we loved the restaurant and although breakfast was included with our hotel we had to go out for breakfast.

I recently visited the Ruby Slipper Cafe with a large group of 20+ people, split between two tables. We ordered a wide variety of dishes, and overall, the food was good, and the service was attentive. However, there was a discrepancy in the service between our two servers. Jack T was transparent and informed his table that a 20% tip was already included, but Michelle M did not mention this to her table. Unfortunately, this led to an unexpected additional tip being added, leaving a sour taste in our mouths. While we should have been more aware, Michelle's lack of communication made a significant impact on our experience. With better communication, I would have given a higher rating, but this incident prevented that. read more

There are not enough words in any language to describe how amazing this place is! I missed it on my first trip to NOLA in February (what a mistake!), and my sister and best friend raved about how good it was. I went back last week and OH. MY. GOD. Their eggs benedict choices had me swooning. I chose a split plate: shrimp boogaloo benedict and St. Charles benedict. That chicken and egg combo had me in breakfast heaven. Perfection! I've been longing for it since I finished my last bite. I also had the Ruby Slipper mimosa and enjoyed it. The entire menu is mouth watering and I look forward to going back again net month to try more Ruby Slipper deliciousness! read more

A must-visit breakfast spot in New Orleans! The fried chicken is absolutely delicious, perfectly crispy and full of flavor, while the biscuits are incredibly fresh and flaky--just the right amount of butter. The Bloody Mary is a standout, packed with bold flavors that really hit the spot. What truly sets this place apart, though, is the service. Our server, Kelly, went above and beyond. She was not only super friendly, but also offered fantastic menu recommendations and made sure our drinks were always topped off. Her attentiveness really made our experience unforgettable.

Unfortunately, we did not have a positive experience at The Ruby Slipper. While we were likely the third table being served, it felt like the staff was more interested in chatting among themselves than attending to us. The service was slow and inattentive, which set the tone for the rest of the visit. As for the food, it was subpar at best. Given all the glowing reviews online, I was expecting something much more memorable, but I struggled to find what all the fascination was about. Sadly, it just didn't live up to the hype. read more

Needless to say, I recommended you run, not walk, to Ruby Slipper and that you run with the speed and determination of Forrest Gump to get there. Run, honey, run! You'll be glad you did! read more

I've only been to this place twice but it already holds a special place in my heart. The location is rooted with rich history and the food reflects the love and care that the restaurant treat it's customers with. The French toast and pancakes are to die for, the eggs benedict are flavorful and adventurous, and the coffee strikes the perfect balance between sweetness of the creamer (or any other sweet add-ons) and the subtle bitterness of the coffee beans. Come hungry if you want to finish your plate though! read more

So many great dishes to choose from, and wonderful morning cocktails! Our server Richard was helpful and attentive. The manager Chris was very friendly and told us all about the history of the location. It's a beautiful building that used to be a bank and supposed was robbed by the infamous Bonnie and Clyde! Would definitely eat there again :D read more

My neighbor Jim recommended this place. We were very concerned because it doesn't take a lot to impress him. However the place was great- the food was terrific with American sized portions. Our server named Jackie was sweet and prompt. She didn't remember our neighbor though. I highly recommend Ruby Slipper. read more

It also looks like a local hangout with their very comfortable bar. The team here is very friendly and like all places in New Orleans... always looking to help. We were traveling with our friends, which we do often and we're very predicable on what we order for breakfast. Our server came right over to the table to bring us water and take a drink order. After a very quick turn-around she was back with our coffees and we were ready to order. Over easy eggs and potatoes French toast VERY well done friend eggs Over easy with sausage Eggs Benedict (or any variation you have.) All was good. All was fresh and what needed to be hot was. What more could you ask for? We tend to get to breakfast fairly early so it wasn't too busy, but people were coming in through our meal and the place was filling up quickly. I love coming to restaurants where they have a good flow of customers and their regulars. KUDOs to the team at Streetcar Cafe.

We were looking for a brunch spot with a little New Orleans flair, and French Toast was exactly…read morewhat we were hoping for. It's also in a great location, just steps from the French Market, making it the perfect place to take a breakfast break before exploring the city. I had the bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit sandwich, and if you're ordering it, do yourself a favor and add avocado. It takes the whole sandwich to the next level. My daughter ordered the King Cake French Toast, and it ended up being one of the biggest surprises of the trip. I'm usually not someone who goes for really sweet breakfasts, but this one was absolutely worth it. The cinnamon flavor came through in every bite, and the cream cheese brought everything together perfectly. My husband ordered the spinach and mushroom crêpe with a side of grits, and it was a 10 out of 10. The coffee was excellent too, which is always a bonus when you're starting your day. The service was attentive, welcoming, and genuinely caring. Between the great food, wonderful staff, and perfect location, we had such a nice brunch. We'd happily come back the next time we're in New Orleans.

When we walked in, most of the tables were already full. We were greeted by the hostess, and we asked if we could just sit and dine at the bar top. She escorted us to our seats, and we noticed signage indicating that bar seating was managed by the hostess anyway. Our waitress was attentive, friendly, and quick to answer all of our questions. As we waited, we couldn't help but notice the enormous plates being delivered to nearby tables, such as the Coconut French Toast and Fried Oyster Toast were absolutely massive! We decided on the Catfish & Shrimp, Chicken & Waffles, and the Aebelskivers (puffer pancakes) with caramel sauce. Everything arrived quickly, hot, and fresh. The cayenne butter paired perfectly with the Chicken & Waffles, and the caramel sauce was the perfect choice for the Aebelskivers! Absolutely delicious! A special thank-you to our hostess, Terry, who was so personable, and shared some fantastic recommendations for other restaurants and places to visit while we were in town. Great food, excellent service, and warm hospitality made this a memorable stop!

Charming, quaint restaurant hidden away from the bustling streets…read more I ordered the Steak Frites and fried Brussel sprouts. We also took advantage of the price fixe menu with Lamb chops, french onion soup and Creme brule. Steak was really good if you like ribeye and the marbling that comes with it. The portion was generous and cooked well. Fries were crisp and plentiful. The brussel sprouts were some of the best I've ever had. Shoutout to our server, Jorlyn who was kind and attentive to our needs. Only super nit pickly thing is that the door doesn't automatically close, so some "unaware" guests left it open a few times welcoming in a curious fly. SO if you go, please be kind to the other guests and close the door behind you :)

Food: The people I was with ordered the lamb chops, steak frittes, chicken salad dish, roasted chicken, and a different sandwich dish and we all loved it!! Services: The place is an intimate restaurant, so I highly recommend making a reservation. But despite the close quarters, every person that worked there was so kind and helpful! The female server was so kind and helpful! I would go back just for the service alone, but every dish that we tried was amazing!!

What i got were fluffy eggs, delicious spiced potato pieces, and the crispiest, flavorful bacon I've had in awhile. My plate also came with crunchy pieces of toast, which i lathered all with butter. We ordered a basket of beignets and they were so damn good. Lots of powder on them. My friend had probably the best looking avocado toast ive ever seen on a plate, and to be honestly id had swipped one from him if my meal wasn't enough for me.
