What S&H lacks in size and fanciness it more than makes up in atmosphere and food. S&H is a small and unassuming place. It's so unassuming that I have passed it probably hundreds of times without giving it a second look. The other day I was in the mood for breakfast and I wanted to try something new and when I searched Yelp, this place popped up. "Oh Yeah", I thought. "That's that little place with good eats in their name. If they put it on their sign, it must be true". Well I am here to tell you that it is true. This place has a great breakfast. The dining area is small. I think I counted seven tables of varying sizes, but I'd bet no more than 25 people could dine here at once. When I walked in it was packed and the only table available was right by the door and dirty. The waitress cleaned it quickly and down I sat. Service was prompt, friendly and I was made to feel like a regular. Since I was alone I had time to eavesdrop on the other tables which is always a nice accompaniment to people watching. Conversations ranged from firemen discussing recent calls they handled to old men discussing the recent gubernatorial election. I got the feeling that everyone in there, but me was a long time regular. Food was good to great. My western omelet had the perfect egg to stuffing ratio and was cooked perfectly. Omelets can be made many different ways, but this one was made just the way I like it. I opted for a side of a biscuit with gravy and home fries. The home fries were good, but not as amazing as the omelet. The biscuit and gravy was very good and should be something every red blooded american should try once in their life. What have I learned from this great experience? Next time I'm driving along and notice a small unassuming restaurant, I won't just pass it by. I also know that I will be back to S&H sooner rather than later. read more

Some of the best breakfast food I have ever had. The scrambled mess and French toast was amazing.

Stopped here for lunch today with my bestie. We both got the lunch special of chicken fried chicken with white gravy, baked Mac and cheese and corn. Everything was absolutely delicious!! I cannot stress enough how awesome the food here was. Can't wait to go back and try other things. read more

fantastic service, great food! Fluffy omelet stuffed with goodness, home fries crisp, and home made gravy. toasted biscuit!! WHAT YOU SAY! they can split your biscuit, toast it, amazing read more

I love the food here. You have to try it. Order a omelette with sloppy roast beef, jalapeños and American Cheese. You won't regret it

I was traveling from out of state and looking for a place to have breakfast. If you don't mind the hole in the wall atmosphere, this place is fantastic. Home fries were the best. Everything was cooked to perfection. Nice people make you feel at home. Good coffee. Generous portions and low prices. Great little spot. read more

Hidden Gem! At first look, this restaurant in an older building doesn't look like much. Definitely don't judge this book by its cover! Food was very good. Service was attentive and courteous. I couldn't believe how fast we were served after ordering, and pricing was reasonable. My wife and I went on a whim, and were extremely satisfied with our pick. She had a large burrito with eggs on top that rivaled the best Mexican restaurants. I had the Vegetarian Omelette with Grits and a biscuit. Loved it. Surprisingly, when we went to leave, all the faces eating were new. Everyone sitting when we arrived, had already eaten and left. Don't let this little place fool you; they serve a lot of people. And, they do it without making you feel rushed. read more

Weekend Getaway: NOLA - breakfast Second day in I took my 2 birthday fellas to breakfast. This shit was AWESOME. We had everything from steak to alligator Po'boy to a massive breakfast burrito and everything was simply divine. The joint is small. Really small. Maybe as big as a 3 bedroom house, which most had been converted to kitchen. Seating is limited!!! Maybe 6-7 tables in the "living room + dining room" space. The ladies work the kitchen and the tables. Friendly customer service and excellent food. Naturally, I chose the steak, eggs and potatoes. Coffee was average. Steak amazing, eggs cheesy (of course) and potatoes fried crispy on the outside tender on the inside. The alligator "looks" questionable but after a bite you'll have all your answers. The breakfast burrito stuffed with eggs, hash browns, sausage or bacon and cheese was a menu favorite. They offer pies and other sweets that are definitely worth trying to stuff yourself with. read more

Great breakfast in a tiny roadside cafe. Be looking for it or you'll drive right by!! Hubs had the "hungry man" breakfast and couldn't finish it (rare!) read more

If you're looking for gourmet breakfast, go elsewhere. If you're looking for wonderful staples that will remind you of breakfast at Grandma's, you're in for a treat. I personally love their eggs and corned beef plate, with grits and a biscuit - all excellent. Where do you find corned beef anymore? It's a rare treat. Their other selections are as good, from waffles to omelettes. It's small though, and usually crowded, so be prepared to wait for a table. There is outside seating on the porch. read more

So what does S&H stand for? That's easy: you come here because you're Smart & Hungry, and you leave here feeling Satisfied & Happy. Homemade goodness all around, nothing tastes like it came frozen in a Sysco box. What more can I say? Daily specials for lunch, obscene large portions for breakfast for cheap, cheap, cheap! We drive 45 minutes to dine here and it's worth every second. read more

Was not impressed the food was ok. I had heard a lot about this place but for the amount of food you got not impressed.

SO GOOD ! Everything was tasty and brought to us in a timely manner . It does seem to be a bit crowded so I would suggest outdoor seating or maybe visiting when they aren't so busy. I would absolutely recommend this place though ! read more

Excellent meal. Home fries were excellent. Hash Browns were very good. Pancakes were huge and just 1 was enough. Country fried steak was yummy. Service was quick and friendly. Not a big place at all and their menu was huge. Really great meal and seemed like the go to place for locals. Definitely stop in if you are in the area. read more

Setting can be rough, along with parking, but food is delicious and reasonable. Staff is mostly pleasant. Best lunch choice in that area.

Small location with a lot of big flavors. I had the catfish po boy and bread pudding and OMG! Tender good yummy - my belly is so happy I had to write this review in the parking lot. All I can say is you can taste the love in the food! read more

Good was great, price was great, customer service was great, etc. Acommodated myself and 4 other people with speedy service and 0 complaints from all of us. read more

My fishing partner and I travel to Louisiana twice a year to fish in Houma. We usually leave Georgia at midnight and hit Slidell between 6:30 and 7:30 AM. The last few trips, we've eaten at the same location; however, we were looking for something different this time around. A Google search for "best breakfast in Slidell, Louisiana" turned up S&H Good Eats Café. It looked like a genuine mom-and-pop restaurant, so we decided we'd give it a try. So, on October 4th of this year, we made it to Slidell at about 7 a.m. When we rolled up in the parking lot, I immediately noticed two police cruisers in the parking lot. Since nothing looked amiss, I took this as a good sign. I'm a retired police officer, and I know police won't eat at places that aren't good. We went in, and sure enough, the mom-and-pop vibe was strong. The place was moderately busy, with about eight people and two of Slidell's finest eating breakfast. We took a table in the corner to the left of the front door and were pleasantly greeted by the waitress. Truthfully, everything on the menu looked good; however, the waitress delivered a plate of chicken fried steak to the table next to ours, and that made up my friend's and my mind: chicken fried steak it was. I ordered grits with my plate, and my friend ordered hash browns with his. We weren't disappointed. Excellent food! Afterwards, we spoke with the police officers who directed us to the Jayne Mansfield crash site (we're history buffs). This is an excellent little mom-and-pop diner with a hometown vibe. We'll see you in April 2024 at S&H Good Eats Café! read more

Best place ever . The restaurant had no wait and clean all over . I read the previous reviews and. Any understand why anyone would leave a bad review awesome place . The food is huge portions and was served pipping hot and just as we ordeeed it thank you again this made my trip a blast Ps the staff rocks read more

Best breakfast in Slidell! Amazing pancakes, great omelets and biscuits and gravy to die for. read more

My daughter and I stopped here for breakfast; we ordered the #3 9oz Ribeye with eggs hashbrowns and wheat toast. The service and the food were great! The place is small and is not aesthetically appealing but that does not matter when you taste your food. I think the look just adds to the character of the place. Will definitely stop through again whenever I am back in Slidell. read more

A tiny hole-in the wall, well off the beaten path, S&H Good Eats Cafe delivered an excellent breakfast experience. We were making a trip to New Orleans, and dug around to find someplace special for breakfast. Our efforts were rewarded with one of the best breakfasts we've had, particularly given the low cost. I had the everything omelette with green chili sauce, side of grits, coffee, and biscuit. Wife had a ham and cheese omelette, kids had pancakes, bacon, and scrambled eggs. Everything came out hot and perfectly prepared. Our check was less than $25. The seating is very limited, but the place is cozy and very friendly. 10 tables inside, 2 outside, only one table that would seat more than 4 (the "big table", which seated 8, had a long wait). Our waitress knew the folks on either side of us by name, and we were made to feel right at home. I was able to see into the kitchen, and the single cook put on a show over the griddle. If you are passing through to New Orleans, S&H is definitely worth the detour for breakfast. read more

Great place amazing food!! The location is a little small so sometimes you can't get in the door. If you can or if you don't have to wait too long it's totally worth it!! Huge portions at crazy low prices. read more

I'm a regular here and they have by far some of the best food in slidell. I moved here from New Orleans and finding a place with good gumbo is hard. The gumbo here is not only good, it's the best I've ever had at any restaurant read more

Great price! Great customer service! Food is equally as good or better than many overpriced restaurants!

Wonderful tiny restaurant! This cafe is a magical little find with unbelievable breakfast and lunch specials.

"Fresh and honest" is the phrase my brother uses to describe this restaurant. I would have to agree; everything coming out if the kitchen is freshly prepared (except the longer prep items like gumbo and bread pudding). The building doesn't look like much from the outside, except it does have a small porch, big enough to get in out of the rain. Paul C. and others call it a "hole-in-the-wall, and I have to agree; but I had no idea there is an ACTUAL HOLE IN THE WALL (I will add the photo). It seems a truck backed into the building, so the owners did a temporary fix. While I would like a few other niceties like homemade local jellies and and such, instead of the "fresh off the Sysco truck" packets, it's an acceptable compromise. The main disadvantage is, the few tables; it is difficult to find a spot during popular times. But the prices are great, considering the good quality of the food. THAT, my friends, is the price you pay, and why I give it five stars. Well, I will make a strong effort to visit S&H the next time I am in town. And I don't even care if they don't give me any Green Stamps! read more

S&H Good Eats Cafe - A hole in the wall in a hole in the wall. Decorated for Valentine's Day it seems. Only in Lacombe! I mean unincorporated St. Tammany Parish! - American Near Me - Slidell, Louisiana

Great prices, great food, awesome service. I got food to go but the staff was very friendly and helpful, even let me try the potato salad to make sure I liked it before Ordering it, it was great! Some of the best I've had. I ordered the build your own lunch which was an entree, two sides and dessert for 6.99! I got the ham and cheese croissant, great flavor, with gumbo and potato salad as the sides and bread pudding. So much food I couldn't even come close to eating it all! Everything was very good, I will be back! :) read more

This was a surprisingly good spot. It is basically a no frills, hole in the wall spot. The dining area is small, we actually ended up sharing long table with another party to get seated. It's a friendly atmosphere, so it oddly worked. And when you're eating a pretty perfect omelet and some home fries, you don't really notice who's sitting next to you. The menu isn't big or ornate, but what is on there is prepared well and flavorful. This is the kind of place you expect to show up on Diners, Drive in and Dives one day. It is a pretty perfect little dive. I'm not in Slidell often, but I would stop again if I'm ever in the area. read more

Good Eats is just the best dive! I say thus tongue in cheek, they are a old time coffee shop w pie ala mode all the southern favs and super great pricing! My fav the pancakes and pork chops for breakfast! read more

Love the cozy small atmosphere. The food is always good here. The staff are friendly and seem to have a great sense of urgency.

This place is a hole-in-the-wall, and I mean that in the best way possible. Don't let appearances throw you... this is the real deal. Amazing food! Amazing prices! Amazing service! Loved every bite! read more

Place looks a little run down, with broken front steps, and clearly hasn't been redecorated in a while. But it has a steady flow of loyal customers who come for the huge portions of breakfast favorites and their interesting breakfast specials. I had the "mini" breakfast burrito and it was GIGANTIC. I ate only half of it! My only suggestion would be to take it easy on the cheese - I would guess there was 6 ounces of cheese on it. The hash browns are fantastic, best I've ever had, and the biscuits are fluffin' fantastic. I can't wait to try something different on our next visit. read more

Had the breakfast burrito. Nice cheesy sauce on top with a good chili/cumin flavor. Eggs sausage and hash browns on the inside. Hit the spot for breakfast. Could have used a little more protein/ less carbs ratio. read more

I must say that even though it's a small location the breakfast is delicious and very reasonably priced. Every time we stay in Slidell this is our "go to" place for breakfast. We discovered it several years ago and it has never disappointed. read more

So on Monday I tried this Cafe after seeing coworkers on several occasion enjoying home cooked meals. Tried the white beans. Perfectly seasoned and with an added surprise of chicken in them. Different but delicious. On Tuesday I tried the breakfast. Delicious!!! So far we're batting 2/2. On today, LASAGNA. OMG, piping hot right out the oven, didn't even have time to set, which was alright by me. Absolutely what I've been craving for months and hadn't been able to find!! Once again perfectly seasoned and not overly cheesy. 10 out of 10. Kudos to the cook!!! read more
