    The food was so good we had breakfast here two out of the three mornings we were in town. The grits were my favorite. Service was good, friendly, and timely. Highly recommend!

    Sourdough King was PHENOMENAL!! One of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had the pleasure of eating. Slap some hot sauce on that bad boy and your taste buds will be dancing like it's Fat Tuesday. Complimented by the delicious Cajun breakfast potatoes and you've got yourself the perfect breakfast, possibly even a hangover cure (if applicable). Service was great and the servers were attentive. Really enjoyed the ambiance inside, they had cool decorations in there and also local artwork on display and for sale. Awesome breakfast spot that I'd highly recommend if you're in the area!!

    Cute lil spot, serving up some classics and some non-traditional options. The food options we chose were tasty and the service was engaging and honest. The ambiance was better suited for perhaps Key West given the esthetics, music selection and menu. But it was still a welcoming and yummy spot to catch some AM energy!

    Best breakfast!! And not just in Nola, in general!! Love coming here. The voodoo brew and the usual are my favorites!! This cozy breakfast spot is perfect. Even when it's hot outside, you can stop in here to cool down, get a strong coffee and amazing food. The biscuits are fresh, hot and fall apart while you're eating them; the bacon is crispy and flavorful; and they give you plenty of fruit with the fruit side. Highly recommend!

    This place is so cute! Very clean, nicely decorated you can buy local art which is neat. Prices are pretty reasonable! I had "the usual" and it was really good! The homemade biscuit was great and not dry, eggs were cooked perfectly. Wasn't too fond of the chai tea latte, it tasted good but was gritty from the topping. The rest of our group had the king sourdough sandwich which they said was great and the power bowl which was also good but very heavy on the beans. Our server was nice and answered all our questions and made sure there was no cross contamination with a food allergy at our table! Fresh OJ was great!

    This place is sooooo great, friendly service, fair prices and excellent food with attention to detail. We visited on our last day in town, but they will be on repeat for future visits!

    Cute little place on the corner. Biscuits and gravy was the best I ever had!! Sandwich was ok but wouldn't order that again. Potato's were good. If you even have an inkling for B&G get them!!!!! Would definitely go again!! Mad I didn't before I left lol.

    Interesting interior.

    Cozy corner place. Strong coffee. I had the Seafood etouffee and grits. This is a tasty shrimp and crawfish stew on a generous bed of grits with eggs on top. Tasty stew and filing and interesting breakfast. Oh! The dish comes with lightly toasted sourdough bread. This dryer bread was great for dipping and balanced the spicy soup.

    The food was all cold and over priced. I'm guessing they let the food sit there ready then decided to bring it out. DNR

    Service: Went to Two Chicks Café with my friend for brunch…read more Parking was a bit hard to find, and we had to wait about 20 minutes in line for a seat, but once we were seated, the service was pretty quick. The staff kept things moving and were attentive throughout our meal. Taste: The menu is concise, which I liked, and there's truly something for everyone. I ordered the BBQ shrimp and grits, and it was hands down the best I've ever had. It was savory, flavorful, and very filling. My friend had the grits and egg bowl, which was also really good. The fresh juices were delicious and paired perfectly with brunch. Ambiance: The café has a lively brunch vibe and feels like a staple spot. It's casual, welcoming, and perfect for catching up with friends while enjoying a great meal. Overall Review: Two Chicks Café is affordable and absolutely worth the visit. Between the flavorful dishes and great brunch energy, it's a must-stop on your NOLA trip. I would definitely go back!!!

    Two Chicks Cafe - So busy they seat you outside of the restaurants' boundaries. And people still line up.

We checked into our nearby hotel a bit early in the day and was looking to hit the streets for a spot to get a chill/light breakfast, a coffee and maybe a cocktail. We found all the things at Luzianne Cafe. Whether you belly up to the bar or grab a table, both of which are first come first serve, you start at the counter where you order, pay and grab your table number. It appears that during busy times they allow you to sit first and order from the QR at your table, this is an assumption given the code to order at the table, but the sign at the entry directed folks to the counter to order before sitting. For breakfast, we got the breakfast biscuit which came with eggs, bacon and cheese, and sided it with grits. The breakfast sandwich was solid, eggs were a bit soft and grits were more mealy than we are used to, but I think that may be authenticity of the area more than anything. I opted for the three option omelet with onion, sausage and gouda plus a side of sausage links. The omelet, though odd sounding combination turned out to be solid. Maybe it was my options, but it was decently "one note" in flavor. I tossed a little hot sauce on and that helped. However, while the sausage links were not much to look at, they were tasty, with a nice snap to the casing and meaty inside. To go with our breakfast, I got a cold brew with a splash of almond milk while my partner embraced NOLA and started his day with a bourbon sour. Both of us enjoyed our choices! Service was friendly and helpful at the counter/bar. The food runner was nice and then another member, assuming the Manager, that stopped by to check on us mid meal. She was super friendly and nice. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and drinks at Luzianne. Minor things noted, mainly on the cook of the eggs, but nothing awful. It his the spot and checked the boxes!
