Small, convenient, and fun! Came in here on the Friday before Mardi Gras to try their King Cake eggrolls. Definitely some sweet thangs!! Luckily, there were two of us and a small kid. Way too sweet for my tastes, but it was still great. The other two gobbled them up. It's definitely a serving size that's big enough for two (or three) depending on how much of a sweet tooth you have. The woman who was working there was so sweet, we couldn't help but share some of our swag with her. Great Mardi Gras treat! read more

Sweet Thangs - King cake egg rolls - Snow Removal Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Sweet Thangs NOLA is a small spot, but it is in an easy, convenient location in the French Quarter, so popping in is no problem. The space itself is colorful and festive, very on brand for New Orleans. The woman working the counter was genuinely sweet and patient, which always makes a difference, especially when it is your first time and you are trying to figure out what to order. We decided to try the King Cake egg rolls. They took about 12 minutes to come out, which honestly was not bad at all. I considered ordering something else, but after overhearing another guest mention a longer wait for her food, I decided to hold off. When the egg rolls came out, they looked great. The Mardi Gras colors definitely pull you in and get your expectations up. Taste wise, they were not bad, but I was a little disappointed. The filling seemed to be mostly cream cheese and it completely oozed out with every bite. There was not much texture or contrast inside. I was expecting actual king cake pieces or at least something to give it more bite. Instead, it tasted almost like a sweet, yogurt-like filling wrapped in a crispy shell. It was not nasty by any means, just not what I was hoping for. That said, I always enjoy supporting local businesses, and this experience will not stop me from coming back. I would absolutely return to try something else on the menu. With a little more texture in the filling, this could have been a hit for me. read more

Oh Sweet Thangs I can't wait to go back! I had the crawfish nachos, pasta, banana pudding, and peach cobbler, and everything was delicious. This place is the cutest, and I wanted to try everything on the menu! Since I couldn't, I've already made a date to return. This gourmet sweet shop offers way more than sweets from spicy bowls to egg rolls, I can't wait to try more next time. read more

This place stops you in your tracks as you walk by, and when you do stop, you hear the lovely accent, "Hiiii, we just opened, come in and try!" and well, of course I did. I'd heard about Sweet Thangs before, but had no idea they were in a brick-and-mortar now! I asked for cheesecake and it was just perfect, exactly what I wanted. I also sampled a few ice creams and the owner was very patient with me and my inability to choose just one thing!! They also serve food now, which I'm dying to try soon. Honestly, the value is great too ,you get a lot of flavor, service, and charm for what you pay. The owner was so lovely, makes you feel right at home. Sweet Thangs isn't just a dessert stop, it's an experience. The staff was so helpful, answered every little question I had, and made me feel like I'd been coming here forever. I'm already planning my next visit. read more

Sweet Thangs - Medium strawberry banana snowball - Snow Removal Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

The first time I came in here, interacted with a staff member who was sweet and helpful. The owner was there and she was talking to someone who had an allergy to seafood and I guess he wasn't notified before he ordered. She was very sweet and accommodating with him. She doesn't really post names of the items that she serves on IG so I guess it's one of those IYKYK. The first time I had a large bill that I couldn't break so I just got a snowball but I wanted to come back a second time to support and get something else. The second time I came in here, I actually interacted with the owner. I wanted to do the whole shebang because I saw she had mix-in's so I'm thinking it's kind of like cold stone creamery where you toss your toppings into the ice cream. I was looking at the strawberry shortcake from a picture that somebody posted on Google maps and I was asking about that, but in the menu in stores it looked like it was just a snowball with the cheesecake on top and it did not sound good to me. I asked for clarification and she points at the menu like "as you can see you can pick either or". I'm like that was a little nasty but whatever. The sign clearly said "designer snowball" and the first thing I saw for pick your base was "sno" so excuse the hell out of me. So I'm trying to get clarification on this speciality ice cream I saw on IG and she's confused. After describing it she's like pull it up. I pull up HER IG post and show her and she tells me that it's just a strawberry sundae with the strawberry cheesecake ice cream. So I'm asking her if I could just do the strawberry cheesecake ice cream with the strawberry cheesecake chopped on top and she keeps saying it's tons of chunks of cheesecake in the strawberry cheesecake ice cream. So then I said it's OK I'm fine and I turn to leave because I truly just wanted what I wanted. She stopped me and she asked me to clarify what I'm looking for. I basically told her when you see something and you assume that it's one thing you have a taste for that thing and because it's not that thing I don't know what I want anymore so instead of standing around trying to figure it out, I would rather just leave and recalibrate. So then she asked me yet again to describe what I'm looking for. I just said the strawberry cheesecake chopped with the strawberry cheesecake ice cream. She then proceeds to tell me that I would be charged about eight dollars for a slice of cheesecake on top of the ice cream. So I'm just like forget it at this point, but she basically said that I can get what I saw on IG, which was a strawberry sundae in a cup. I just want this conversation to be over so I just said sure and got it. It's not what I wanted, but at that point it was whatever. She lacked patience from the first question I asked and she's in hospitality. That doesn't really pan out long-term. read more

A relative stopped here and asked if I wanted something. After hearing what was on the menu I decided on the seafood spicy bowl. Listed at $18 (If you look at previous reviews the price has gone up in the last 4 months and her menu keeps changing) My cousin got the combo spicy bowl ($20) and i heard her on the phone ask what it came with because she was a bit confused. After clarification, it seemed the combo came with all the meats plus a pig lip. So I was rather confused when my cousin dropped my food off and the bowl was not giving $18. If I was there to see the bowl she would have never got my money because I wouldn't have left her establishment with that. I didn't like what I was given of course ima want my money back that $18 coulda went towards sum actual food. And this is our message exchange. She gone say sum "Only issue I see is it can be more seafood" The whole point of paying $18 was to get a SEAFOOD SPICY BOWL if I barely got seafood wtf am I paying for?? Peppers and Juice??? Learn to criticism without taking it as an attack. Now I'm a hater because I didn't like the food I paid for. read more

For our first time trying this place (and was so excited), we were very disappointed. Ordered the wings and loaded tots and were told it came with 4 wings but got 3 instead. The wings were chewy/undone. The cheese for the tots was nasty. Also gave one of the special ice creams a try but they didn't have the right ice cream and it was nothing like pictured at the register. Very overpriced for the very little food you get. Really no effort put into making sure customers are satisfied. read more

Extremely rude & very passive aggressive for no reason. Although this isn't about race, to be black owned & rude to your black customers & nice to your non black customers is diabolical. I will never go back. #notcool read more

My friend and I were walking to Sweet Thangs when we realized they were just about to close. We were really hoping to try the stuffed pineapple snowball. Even though everything was already cleaned up and they were wrapping up for the day, the owner still offered to take our order, which was so kind of her! Just wanted to say a big THANK YOU for the amazing customer service and generosity. It really meant a lot! read more
