    I came to try their donuts for the first time. I was able to get a dozen different kinds to try. I even try some of their specialty like apple fritter, honey bun, and a twist. Everything tasted pretty good. I will be back for another dozen.

    Outside food and service! They know how to cook and they don't disappoint!!! Besides my mom's biscuit and gravy, they have no problem making it right up there with my mom's! Made from scratch everything on breakfast items!!!!! We highly recommend y'all make it a priority to make sure that when you get a chance to eat it there! Awesome stuff and staff!

    Bacon, egg, and cheese on toast

    Need a quick hearty breakfast in Belle Chasse? This spot is it. I work on the Naval Base and there aren't many food options on the way in to work (before 5:30am). I walked in and there was a gentleman ahead of me ordering donuts. After the cashier helped him she took my order and then went to the kitchen to make it. I ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on toast. Within 6-7 minutes she was walking back out of the kitchen while closing a box as she said "bacon, egg and cheese on toast? That'll be $4 sweetheart!" It was fast! I believe I was In and out the restaurant in 10 minutes! Now the sandwich... the toast was perfectly buttered, the eggs firm but fluffy, the cheese melted perfectly and the bacon had that equal ratio of crunch and tenderness. I've been depriving my body of great food by stopping at State oil or Racetrack for their breakfast sandwiches. I'll be here every morning that time allows! Note: You can't call ahead (as I've tried but no one answers the phone) but the service is fast and efficient. Thanks Town View Café for my amazing food experience, looking forward to having the same sandwich tomorrow!

    Lauren top notch in customer service and a good cook!

    Quick, simple local & good. Eggs, biscuits, egg sandwiches & waffles. Not "fast food" just good food fast. Fresh donuts. Simple food & simple review on a busy morning.

    Mmmm

    I love this place. It is super clean. Picture an old school diner, super tiny with a couple booths and a row of genuine stools lining a counter. You sit down, are greeted with the smell of fresh coffee and donuts and a "Good morning or afternoon", and you sit back and relax. You over hear old men tell lies and old ladies reminisce about the good ole days. You can watch middle aged people rush in for coffee looking harried and walk out with a smile and a hot fresh cup in their hands. In the morning, you can see elementary school kids come in and press their little hands on the donut counter choosing their morning treasure with glittery eyes and their little squeaky voices, looking up at parents for approval to add that one more donut hole. If you are expecting a pretentious, overpriced dining experience here, then don't bother. The food here is fresh, simple and fairly priced comfort food. It comes out hot and fresh in a reasonable amount of time. Sure, it is not the most updated and trendy place, but I feel confident in the quality of the food and the cleanliness of the cooking area. The most comforting part is the atmosphere. As soon as you plop down you are included, one of the regulars. If you can't decide what you want there is always someone willing to help with suggestions. Let me say that the steak sandwich is a winner as are all of the donuts and muffins I have had there. My favorite is the sausage egg and cheese biscuit with my eggs over easy....mmmmm. The staff is super sweet. Some of them are more friendly than others, but everyone greets you with a smile, and tries hard to get your order right. I have never had them mess up an order or treat me with anything but kindness. I suppose this is why I stop here no less than 3 times most weeks on my way to work. In the amount of time, I would spend sitting in my car at a drive thru, I can be in and out with hot fresh food and a smile on my face.

    Miss Ruby, This is me and my granddaughter Peyton. I took her to sewing lessons, she made the hood on her head!

    I miss going to Town View as much as I used to but I'm not in town as much as I used to be! I just adore Miss Ruby and everyone there!

I love and miss you all so much !!!!!! XXXXOOOOO Lizzie G P.S. I hope I get to see you when I go to Russo's this week!!!

    Biscuit s good terrible service. Go past this place and head to McDonald's. Plastic forks and styrofoam plates. Cleanliness is suspect.

    Cafe Du Monde - Beignets with hot chocolate

    You gotta go. It's New Orleans!!!…read more Cafe du Monde is one of those places where you just have to embrace the chaos, get powdered sugar all over your body and have some fun with it. The beignets + cafe au lait are exactly what you want, and it's such a perfect spot to sit, relax, people watch and take in all the New Orleans craziness around you. My favorite time to go is either really late at night or ridiculously early in the morning. Both just hit different. Also... CASH ONLY!!! If you sit at a table the servers come to you quick! Powdered sugar covered clothes are basically a souvenir. 10/10 New Orleans experience.

    It's funny, you tell just about anyone you're going to New Orleans and almost always the first…read moreplace they bring up is Cafe Du Monde. I'd literally been told I had to go here so many times that by the time I landed in New Orleans, I pretty much made a beeline straight for this legendary cafe. This cafe is located right outside Jackson Square right off the waterfront. They are open late, as they close at either 11p or 12am every day. When we went in the middle of the afternoon, the place was very busy as it was hard to find a table in their outside patio, so we settled for a table in the indoor section(A/C SCORE!!). The ground was littered with powdered sugar as customers like myself don't always understand how to eat these beignets without making a big mess. The beignets themselves were pretty inexpensive as they cost only $4.53 for a 3-pack. I also got a large frozen coffee for $7.70. The beignets were delivered to our table very fast and very warm. The movie "Chef" says you only get your first bite of your first beignet from Cafe Du Monde once in your life and to cherish the moment and I do truly understand what they meant with that quote. These beignets were so great and that first bite with the powdered sugar explosion was so amazing-I really enjoyed the recklessness of having a beignet at Cafe Du Monde. Overall, I feel that anyone who visits New Orleans has to find their way to this legendary cafe and enjoy this dish that has been served since 1862. A really great bite!.

    We had an absolutely exceptional dinner at Café Amélie tonight! With the recent rain, the usual…read morepotent French Quarter street smells were washed away, leaving the air beautifully fresh and the temperatures perfectly cool. Though pop-up showers were still lingering, my husband and I decided to take a gamble on courtyard dining--and I am so glad we did! Sheltered under the green umbrellas surrounded by historic brick walls, lush greenery, and rain-kissed citrus trees, the atmosphere was incredibly romantic and peaceful. The courtyard's intimate layout even brought a bit of extra magic to our evening. We sat near another wonderful couple (and their adorable daughter) and became fast friends, sharing laughs and conversation throughout the night. What truly anchored the experience, though, was the incredible service. The staff was remarkably personable, helpful, and welcoming. The dinner itself was excellent from start to finish, showcasing immense culinary skill across every dish. We started with the delicious brussels sprouts and a uniquely seasoned spring/summer gumbo that was unlike any version we've had before (oh, what I would give for the recipe). As for the entrées, the shrimp and grits were phenomenal, and the blackened catfish sandwich with a fresh salad was executed flawlessly...and the bread pudding was fantastic, too! It is rare to find an experience where top-tier hospitality, a breathtaking environment, and great food come together so (seemingly) effortlessly. Café Amélie is an absolute must-visit! We will be back.

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.
