The cauliflower was perfectly matched, only wish it had more romesco sauce on it and that the cauliflower was a tad bit warmer. The hot sauce on the table was a nice touch. Service Order at the counter and they would bring your food out to you. There are napkins and utensils against the wall for you to grab so it is largely self-service and no frills. Ambiance: Order at the counter and grab a table. Nothing too crazy and no line at all in the middle of the day on a Wednesday. I could see this place being busy, but it was not bad at all.

So glad to find vegetarian/vegan poboys options here!…read more We went with Thai BBQ Tofu and Cauliflower poboy. Both were fresh, great and tasteful. I am not a fan of BBQ flavor in general but I liked it here as it was not overpowering. The tofu was soft inside but yet nicely grilled. The Cauliflower poboy didn't look appetizing but the filling is very nicely flavored. I could even taste smokiness in the cauliflower filling. And the baguette is soft inside amazing here - soft, fresh and the best I have ever had! Service was super quick. Additional star for a clean bathroom.

There are restaurants that serve Indian food, and then there are restaurants that honor it. LuFu…read moreNola is firmly in the latter category. As someone of Indian heritage who has eaten at Indian restaurants across the country and abroad, I do not offer five stars lightly. The Tandoori Chicken Tikka is the best I have ever had -- anywhere, full stop. The char is perfect, the marinade deeply fragrant, and the chicken impossibly tender. This dish alone is worth crossing the city for. The Chicken Biryani was layered and fragrant, with each component perfectly spiced yet cohesive. The Malai Gosht was rich and silky -- a quietly elegant dish that lingers on the palate. The Palak Paneer was vibrant and fresh, nothing like the heavy renditions found elsewhere. The Bullet Naan -- marketed as "eat at your own risk" -- delivered on its promise. Bold, building heat that commanded attention, but never reckless. Paired with a curry, it was outstanding. The Falooda dessert was a perfect finish: cooling, fragrant, and beautifully presented. The wine list was surprisingly decent for an Indian Restaurant. We enjoyed the Brunello! And the service -- led by Manager Aman -- was over the top in the best possible way. Warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in every guest's experience. The hospitality matched the kitchen's excellence at every turn. LuFu Nola is a must-visit. Easily the best Indian food in New Orleans.

Ok, so I fell in LOVE with grape leaves in my early teens; I am not 66. For the past 50+ years…read moreI've been on a quest for that euphoric grape leaf experience. Every restaurant offering grape leaves, well, I order them and they always disappointed. Cleo's provided the holy grail of grape leaves. They were perfectly seasoned, did NOT have any chewy veiny ribs to the leaves, whatever starch used (super small grain rice or couscous or quinoa) was off the delicate nature that absorbed the aromatics perfectly!! I don't know what else to say but "MY LORD!" My husband ordered red lentil soup. He said it was on the watery side, BUT, it was seasoned very well. He also selected the falafel platter (he's now licking the plate. I wish there had a location in Orlando where I live, because one of my bucket list items has now been crossed off - fulfillment of the perfect meat grape leaves. Hats off to Cleo's chef!!!!!!!!!!!!

In a city where great meals compete with jazz riffs for your attention, this New Orleans gem…read moremanaged to steal the show. We arrived sans reservation, but were whisked straight into the courtyard -- arguably the best seat in the house on a pleasant Louisiana evening. Between the soft night air and the glow of the courtyard, the atmosphere alone deserved applause. The cocktails arrived first and immediately set a dangerously high standard: beautifully crafted, perfectly balanced, and the kind of drinks that make you consider canceling your plans afterward. Fortunately, the food rose to the occasion. The edamame and roasted Brussels sprouts disappeared with alarming speed, and the Amelie Salad was a standout -- generously portioned, fresh, vibrant, and substantial enough to be an entrée or ideal for sharing if you're pretending to be civilized. A special nod to Liz, who elevated the entire experience with spot-on recommendations, warm hospitality, and the rare ability to be both attentive and effortlessly relaxed. In a city famous for memorable dining, this meal still managed to feel special -- equal parts elegant, welcoming, and unmistakably New Orleans.

The host was extremely welcoming and friendly. Our server and helpers were over quickly to drop off waters and greet us. I ended up ordered the salmon. With it being so early and only one or 2 other tables besides my friend and me, the food did take longer to come out than I expected it to. Both of us did thoroughly enjoy what we got. The salmon was crispy on the outside with a nice sauce over it. We thought we'd have time to get dessert so we ordered a couple but that too took a very long time. We finally waved down our server to cancel and get the check since we had to be somewhere and he apologized and said their WiFi was going in and out so it could be that it was registering on the kitchen side. That may have explained why our entrees took too long. If it wasn't for the service and the food being great - I would not be thrilled about timing. We got there around 5:30p and had to leave by 7:15p so an almost 2 hours experience that probably could have been 1 hour.

We easily made a reservation online and were seated right away when we arrived. The ambiance was warm and inviting, and the staff were so friendly. The mango lassi was absolutely delicious!

The portions were generous, and we even had plenty of leftovers for the next day. We would highly recommend giving Namaste a try!

Decided to stop here for a vegetarian Indian meal with another while visiting Nola…read more Between the two of us we ordered quite an array of appetizers and entrees. The paneer pakora was tasty and an excellent way to start the meal along with the gobi manchurian. The little dipping sauce and lime really brought the flavors together. The paneer masala was also delicious. We decided to be a bit adventurous and ordered the menthi malai mutter, which turned out to be an interesting but also tasty choice of fenugreek koftas over sauce. What I didn't enjoy, however was the mango lassi. Theirs had a very heavy spice flavor... perhaps too much cardamom. Overall a very tasty place with a lot of meat and vegetarian options.

Found this on yelp and google and followed the overall great reviews…read more Definitely was not disappointed! The food is flavorful and the portions are sizable. The combo plate comes with a huge pile of meat, a tasty salad and a nice serving of hummus. Of course the pita bread completes the meal perfectly. Service is fast, the inside seating vibe is casual. Prices are fair. Would recommend this highly if you are looking for middle eastern food in downtown Nola.
