    Our server Crystal was excellent. She made our experience this morning so great! She knew the menu from the inside out and was able to make the adjustments that we needed. Our orders all came out promptly and correctly, the food quality was great. The inside of the restaurant clean with a New Orleans vibe.. my little ones French toast came out fried. This was a surprise, but they loved it and was closer to donuts but wish this had been mentioned on the menu as we may have made another choice.

    Fried Green Tomatoes Starter and a Peach Bellini
    Morgan G.

    This was such a great bunch spot! Our server was awesome and recommended the eggs Benedict, which were really good! Fried green tomatoes were really tasty! Would definitely come again

    Beignets Starter

    The best thing was the French toast bites, the sandwich was bland, I felt like I could have made something better at home. Was very disappointed overall with the food given the great ratings we saw. Our service was great and the place was cute but I would not stop here again.

    Came here for breakfast during IronMan weekend. The staff were very accommodating, efficient and welcoming. I sat at the bar and in just 15 minutes the entire restaurant became packed. I had the breakfast tacos and they were very good and flavorful with a kick. The avocado was very small and I was hoping that it was a big bigger. It was a teaser. The OJ tasted freshly squeezed and the latte was made to order. Great place for breakfast!

    Florentine Omelet - yummm goat cheese
    Ali S.

    Great spot! Got here early in the morning so not busy at all. Our waitress was so sweet and even reached out to a friend to help us with questions we had about a local distillery. This breakfast was my favorite from our entire trip. The goat cheese in the Florentine omelette was fantastic! And the homemade biscuit was muahhh! Food came out quickly and the cook (maybe also the owner or manager?) came out to check in on how he did with the food. Tons of seating, cute little details in the decor all around, even fun wallpaper in the bathroom. Fun spot, definitely stop in if you can.

    Vanilla latte, Fried Green Tomatoes Starter
    David M.

    Delicious! I ordered the fried green tomatoes, the Cuban breakfast bowl, and an iced vanilla latte. Fried green tomatoes were well done, good toppings. They are tasty, but the fried green tomato wasn't the star of the show. Cuban bowl was yummy! A dash of hot sauce and it was perfection. Hot sauce was already on the table. Came with these fried plantain chips. Would have preferred real fried plantains. Chips were tasteless and useless. Vanilla latte was tasty, but the cup was overfilled with ice so I might have gotten 4 oz of drink. Overall a lot of delightful flavors, great service, and a few improvements to the food plan would be welcome.

    Sweet Heat Chicken and French Toast Bites
    Sam S.

    Cute little spot. Waitress was friendly. Drinks were strong. Food was pretty good. I had the chicken and french toast bites. Pretty delish, it has a good balance of sweat and heat. I also had the espresso martini. It definitely put some hair on my chest and my partner had the whipped pineapple mimosa. It sounds good but tasted different. Overall though, it's a place worth checking out.

    Chicken St. Charles Benedict Eggs Cochon Benedict  Chicken st Charles Benny was an all timer. So good! I love that you can mix.
    Hayley D.

    Best breakfast I've had in a while! So many great options that are a little different than the average breakfast spots. The flavor in all the sauces was great!

    Food was amazing and fast service. That maple butter and the omelet was great. Husband got the biscuits and gravy and it was delicious

    Chicken St. Charles Benedict
    Christine D.

    Great option for breakfast in Chattanooga! The service was really great and fast. Lots of options for sitting at a booth table or even outdoors with umbrellas. They have a full mimosa menu and brunch options.

    Our server was amazing, and the suggestions he gave were 10/10. The menu honestly had a ton of great options to choose from, the food was delicious. We will for sure be back to try out more menu items

    ashley p.

    Food was absolutely delicious! I love a place that served migas and they did not disappoint. The Benny was delicious too, as were the peach cobbler beignets (the actual best part of the meal!). We sat on the patio and it was absolutely lovely. Service was great too! The only downfall, and the reason for the 1 star deduction was the cocktails (well mocktails). They were highlighted on the menu and were both undrinkable. They tasted old, watered down, just absolutely terrible. And expensive! I highly suggest going for the food, but would skip the expensive specialty drinks.

    Gluten free Tater Tots and gluten free Southern BLT
    Lisa M.

    Okay, this place surprised me! I went in with low expectations for a chain restaurant. There is an allergen menu (gluten friendly, vegetarian, keto, dairy). SO MANY options. I ordered the southern BLT gluten free on gluten free bread with a side of tater tots. It was excellent. GF bread was surprisingly a decent size! I would definitely return and highly recommend! Excellent food and customer service!

It is super welcoming with free parking and an eclectic decor. Vien was our waiter and he was amazing! He helped us with the menu, had some great suggestions and was entertaining and attentive throughout. He made our meal! We started with the House-Made Potato Chip Nachos, and they were fantastic--loaded with flavor and a great way to kick things off. We all agreed they were much better than regular tortilla nachos. For my entrée, I went with the Muffaletta, and it did not disappoint. The bread was perfectly crisp, the sandwich was packed with flavor, and the side of wood-fired vegetables gave it a really nice twist. She had the Shrimp and Crab Po'Boy special, which she absolutely loved, especially paired with the Confusion Potatoes. Those potatoes were definitely worth mentioning on their own. Our tablemates had the Shrimp Po'Boy and Parilla Steak and Shrimp and both loved their meal. And then came dessert: Beignets. Light, warm, and dusted just right, they brought back memories of the French Quarter in New Orleans. A pretty great way to finish the meal. We wish we were closer to Chattanooga so we could frequent this place often.

Their side salad also costs $8 and is honestly insulting. Ordered as my main meal and was not told that it was small or anything like that. For $8, one would assume it would be more substantial.

We ordered the veggie omelette and the Broadbent omelette, and both were generously filled with fresh, well-balanced ingredients. Nothing overpowered anything else. Instead of relying on heavy spices or sauces, the flavors came naturally from the quality and proportion of the ingredients themselves. The sourdough toast was exceptional, with a crisp crust and great texture, and my cappuccino was exactly what I hoped for--smooth, balanced, and expertly made. The setting was just as enjoyable. Housed in a beautifully restored historic train station, the atmosphere has genuine character that complements the food rather than trying to distract from it. A breakfast that's driven by quality ingredients instead of gimmicks. I would gladly return and highly recommend it.

My wife has a gluten and dairy allergy, and I've got a tree nut allergy, Alpha-Gal, plus a diabetes kicker. We're usually a solid test for any kitchen. Both visits, the staff passed. Knowledgeable, showed genuine concern, and were able to make accommodations without a lot of back-and-forth. Good selection on the menu meant we weren't working from a short list of options either. Food was good across both visits--consistent, which matters as much as a single great meal. My son particularly liked the Brunch Sausage Burger. Looked good, and seemed entirely appropriate after a late night. Large space, tables well spread out, and located not far from downtown. Easy place to settle in whether you're with a crowd or just the two of you. Good for: small kids, business meals, casual meals, groups Would come back. Already did once.
