Look, i'm not real big on leaving reviews for coffee shops. A lot of them are just parts of chains,…read moreand they very inequality from location to location. Well, in the case of this particular coffee shop on Robert Street in Slidell, they were so good it's worthy of mentioning. It's Sirincci Coffee Company, a small chain of boutique coffee shops. My gf and I stopped in randomly while doing an errand on the Northshore (we live in New Orleans about 35 miles away) with no experience or expectations. Even if I had had expectations, they would've blown them away anyway. First, I guess I'll talk about the drinks. Sirincci offers a seasonal specials menu, and it's criminally good. Terrible and guilt inducing in all the best ways. We both ordered from the Fall menu. She had the Cool Front Latte-caramel and cinnamon latte topped with brown butter toffee cheesecake cold foam (yes, you read that right). I had the Pecan Pie Chai-praline chai with rich brown butter toffee. My gf is gluten intolerant, and the barista verified the cheesecake topping was gluten free...whew. Both drinks were prepared quickly but tasted like they had spent hours on them. I rarely use the term "mouthwatering" for beverages, but these qualified. I included a pic of their current fall menu to drool over. Beyond the perfect drinks, the service matched the quality. Our barista taking our order was so patient as we peppered her with questions about their menu, and made great recommendations. The atmosphere in the cafe is super homey and even family friendly. There were a variety of board games and kid friendly seating. I watched a happy little girl getting mercilessly schooled in UNO (reverse, reverse, reverse, take four!), and a father and son playing Battleship. I'm not big on kid-friendly places, but the atmosphere managed to stay quiet and comfortable. We sipped (gulped) our drinks while sitting in a comfy loveseat taking in the place. There are some truly unique Knick Knacks displayed and for sale, including hilarious stickers available at the counter (one pictured). But I've saved the best for last! For those of you not familiar with Sirincci, they have an "Angel program" where you can pre purchase drinks to gift future customers! There is a display on the wall with tags clipped to it with the names of various drinks people have gifted, available to take and redeem by ANYBODY! I purchased a few to gift, grateful for the tangible opportunity to show gratitude for my security. That might be the coolest thing I've ever seen at a commercial business. So yes, if you find yourself in Slidell, treat yourself to the most sinful drink you can get without alcohol and a mini-getaway feel.

I go here to relax when I need a pick me up or simply am craving a sweet caffeinated beverage. My only thing is the prices. They are a bit high, which is why I'm rating 4 stars, BUT totally worth the price for the amount of options you get to choose from and the quality of the coffee. :)

The Big Easy Diner is one of the more pleasant diners I have visited, offering a nostalgic 50s and…read more60s atmosphere. The food has consistently been excellent; my daughters treated me here for Father's Day, and we were all very satisfied. We started with the large onion rings, which were substantial enough to nearly fill us up. For our entrees, I had the BLT, my youngest daughter ordered a hamburger, and my eldest chose the cheesy fries. Everything was well-prepared, and the milkshakes and iced tea were both top-tier. While service can occasionally be slow during peak hours due to staffing challenges, the staff on duty are always friendly and accommodating. Furthermore, the prices are very reasonable. This was not our first visit to the Big Easy, and it certainly won't be our last. If you are looking for fast food, the major chains are located just down the street, and if you are seeking fine dining, this is not that either. The Big Easy Diner is simply a wonderful place to enjoy a quality meal.

The vibe, ambiance, friendly & stellar service, and top notch food are muy excelente!!! First off, you must order the CAFE CON LECHE (coffee w/ milk)! The strong Cuban espresso will definitely caffeinate your world and you might even ask for a second cup to go! I might be a little biased, but it is the BEST cafe con leche that I've ever had on the Northshore. The cafe con tres leches is another good choice as well. You can enjoy and savor every sip of their coffees any time of year! Next, you must try the Havana Sampler (tostones- fried plantains, maduros- fried, caramelized sweet plantains, croquetas, fried yuca) with fried pork chunks. Yes, I know - everything FRIED makes the world go round! We have only one life to live so you might as well enjoy all the yummy foods from this diverse world of ours! Remember to dip everything in the homemade mojo sauce (it has a strong garlic flavor)! The Cuban sandwich is one of my favorite sandwiches and is a great lunch option. When I want to splurge, I have to get the special oxtail soup. The oxtail is fall-off-the-bone tender and full of flavor. The chef is very creative and offers special dishes throughout the month. Anytime is a good time for cocktails here! I have enjoyed many of their specialty mojitos - the mango and watermelon were both so refreshing to enjoy on a sunny day. They even have a mojito flight if you can't decide on one flavor. I also enjoyed the caipirinha (Brazilian national cocktail), which surely packs a punch (but in a good way!). Que Rico is a spacious, beautifully decorated restaurant and is the perfect place for a small or even larger group! On certain nights, they even have salsa dancing, which provides for a fun and more lively evening! Make plans to visit Que Rico for coffee, drinks, or enjoy a meal with family and friends ...it will be a fabulous fiesta FUN-day !!!

There are so many items on the menu. The girl was super friendly and very helpful. It didn't take long for her to fix the bowl. I was in and out in no time. I may give them another chance and try a different bowl, but the banana is a no for me. Oh wait! I don't care for their granola it really wasn't like any granola I ever had before and I would not get it on another....but hey that's my preference, so do you!
