    Boudin Eggrolls
    Liz W.

    Order at the counter, wait for your drinks and take a seat. Casual and can get pretty busy, but the line moves relatively fast. Just came in for a snack and drink. The boudin Eggrolls are good. The mozzarella sticks are cheesy.

    Great little place. Good vibes and delicious food! Simple menu but plenty of selection. I ordered the shrimp basket and it was piled high which nice sized fresh gulf shrimp, fried to perfection. (I forgot to take pics.) The staff was friendly and inviting - just down home good folks! Will be back soon!

    Chicken avocado sandwich
    Bill W.

    I love this little place in Old Mandeville. The food here is great, and the service is always on point. Came here today to get out of the house on a weekday to grab a bite and spend time near the lakefront. Their gumbo is always delicious and the poboy was packed with roast beef. My fiancée had the chicken avocado sandwich and she brought half of it home because it was so big. If you're ever in the neighborhood, stop in. You won't be disappointed.

    Fried shrimp tacos
    Amy C.

    Went for lunch today, was very good. The person taking orders was very friendly and helpful. It's a small but nice space, and very busy! Ordered fried shrimp tacos and blackened chicken Cesar salad. They also had on special fried okra, which I always order when it's available! It did not disappoint!

    Hijacked Burger+onion string and fried green tomatoes.

    The Rusty Pelican is our go to place when we're in Mandeville. We love the burgers and poboys. My husband ordered the Hijacked burger and loved it and I always get the half and half fried shrimp and roast beef poboy(not pictured). Delicious!

    Shrimp Basket

    My go to restaurant when I visit the NorthShore. You order at the counter and find a place to sit afterwards. The food was delivered in under 10 minutes. Plenty of seating inside and out side . Food is always fresh, flavorful, and served hot. The team is always friendly and welcoming. The menu has a wide variety of seafood ( fried grilled), burgers, sandwiches, and salads. The portions are large and sometimes can be shared. You'll definitely get your moneys worth and will not leave hungry! The pictures don't do justice!

    We came for dinner. Husband wanted blue crab and he got it. The parking lot was decent and vehicles also parked along side the establishment. The decor inside and outside was put together well. Clean and friendly. We went to the counter to order and pay. We found our own seat and the food was brought out when ready. Establishment was well lit, open seating with clean restrooms. I appreciate that. Food was great quality for the value. We were able to take our time and enjoy ourselves. Really enjoyed that this was nestled on the Corner of Girod and Monroe in the Heart of Old Mandeville. We were told this was a favorite stop for locals so we had to check it out. Casual dining experience. Salad was fresh and Seafood was delicious. They support local beers as well as a selection of old standards and feature a full-service drink bar.

    Turkey Avocado Sandwich

    I got the turkey avocado sandwhich and subbed the turkey for a grilled chicken breast, absolutely delish . The jalapeño cheddar bread was fresh and tasted so good. I will definitely be back!

    This place stays busy. The burgers are good and the fries are actually better than McDonald's, which is quite a feet in itself. I cannot, however recommend the prime rib sandwich. It was full of gristle and I really couldn't eat it. Otherwise the menu is full of burgers, sandwiches, Poboys and seafood and tacos, if you have a bunch of kids, this is the place to go

I tried a bait, and despite not being a big Cesar salad fan, did enjoy it. Chicken was flavorful, cooked perfectly and served on a beautiful cloves of garlic toast. Our apps were good. Chips and queso and flatbreads are pretty standard so they met my expectations. The Trace has plenty of menu options and beers on tap. I am curious to try their other menu items, specifically the main dishes. A very casual ambiance, we chose to sit outside and enjoy the warm weather. Our server was great and patient. He checked on us consistently through service and even gave our dog a water bowl as well.

The location, directly on the St. Tammany Trace on Girod Street, is a definite winner. We dined outside today and service was excellent. We had a variety of burgers, salads, and munchables today and all were good. My Buffalo chicken salad was stellar; fresh, crispy, and generously portioned. They have a good selection of specialty cocktails and local brews, and the iced tea was good. Good things seem to be going on here. It will be interesting to see how things develop.

I certainly appreciate them making it work. Crazy Pig has an excellent menu for breakfast with lots of different options We went on a Sunday morning I got one of the omelettes I think mine was the lean omelette Everything comes with bread and or biscuit I can't eat bread or biscuit so our waiter offered me avocado and tomatoes, which were a perfect choice to go with my omelette Most restaurant places that I've been to usually just remove the item without offering a substitution I was so happy with the alternate options I spoke with the owner to let her know that I appreciate having the tomato and the avocado instead of the bread and the biscuit. Then she told me that they just had a class on food allergies This is really exceptional that a restaurant is taking up their own initiative to learn about food allergies so that they can service their customers with better care While the food is definitely excellent with the capacity to offer different options for the different dietary needs that people have and the staff is educated, I just wish that they had better coffee at the Mandeville location like a cappuccino or a café latte Still an excellent choice

    I've heard great things about this place since moving to the North Shore 5 years ago and I can't…read morebelieve that it has taken me this long to make it there. We went here for breakfast over the weekend and it won't be our last trip. We met some family here and the place was packed. The tables are small four person tables and there were six of us and they wasted no time at getting comfortably seated. The dining area is small and it was very busy and crowded however, that didn't prevent us from having great service. We ordered and the food was delivered promptly and our waitress was very attentive which amazed me c how busy they were. I had a mixture of things that I put together kinda ala cart if you will. Two biscuits with sausage gravy, two eggs, sausage patties, and home fries. Let's just say that I wasn't expecting the amount of food that I received. The biscuits were huge and the gravy was perfect. The portions were more than what I expected. The place has a great vib and is decorated very neglectful with various things from Madi Gras to mermaid paintings and lots of signage. The parking is ample and easy to get in and out of. So if you're in the Mandeville area definitely stop by and give them a try.
