      First thing I craved when landing was Beignets! The food was good and the atmosphere was nice. Very reasonably priced. I'm eating the Beignets first!!

      Great service and great vegan food. I have been all over looking for the best vegan finds in LA and this one is the current winner! The crab cake was delicious and the southern styled Alfredo was fire! The ambiance was great! From the kind bartender putting on some country music for us to the beautiful cats outside! They have a huge patio for outdoor seating too!

      The vegan options are so good here. I also really love the red beans. The restaurant is really nice for a party. She has a great deal. Make sure you check out this local restaurant in the Mid City.

      The hours here on Yelp, on door dash, and Google don't align.

      My niece attempted to order using the hours she saw on DoorDash. The order was confirmed. A driver was dispatched. He arrived and the store was closed so our order was canceled.

      My niece is vegan and waited hours for the location to open to order.

      I took it upon myself to see what Yelp had listed for hours and see 4-7. Her order was placed at 5. So even by the hours HERE they should have been open.

      The food is AMAZING! I had the fried cauliflower appetizer, a fried green tomato po' boy, and vegan pecan pie for dessert. 10/10, highly recommend! The best vegan food I've had in NOLA! The service was excellent, and the restaurant is decorated simply, and very clean!

      Visited from out of town , was excited that there was a vegan side of the menu that had more than two options.
      I walked in and the place was empty, so I wasn't sure if that was a good sign or not.

      Straight to the food - I wanted to try a little bit of everything but they said they were out of the majority of the vegan items.
      Fried green tomatoes were good, but were cold

      The vegan Alfredo pasta was eh, it lacked seasoning and was watery. They should try to make a vegan Rasta pasta that would be a great alternative. I think they used daiya cheese to make the Alfredo sauce but I could be wrong. They also gave me elbow macaroni instead of noodles.


      Now the highlight of the show was the bread pudding bites , I should of made that my entree !

      Ambiance was nice and has potential to be a great spot, the people were nice but it took a long time for the food to be ready. (I was the only one in the restaurant for 1 hour) and it sounded like they were missing a lot of ingredients and kept saying "we are out " . There was also a 20 percent service charge ? Was definitely over charged.

      All in all, I would return but maybe just for drinks not dinner. I really wanted to like this place because you don't find a lot of vegan friendly spots.

      The food is terrible but the music and service was decent!
      The gumbo is not house made. It's Campbell soup with added seasoning!
      The fried chicken salad is package chicken with Caesar salad packets thrown on top of the salad!

      Great experience. The space is so nice. The rooftop is such a vibe. They have daily specials. Specials on Saints game days. Cocktails and hookah available. DJs on some evenings. Menu is amazing. Catering to vegans and none vegans. Everything we tried was Delicious!

      I was overcharged for my meal and when I reached out to the restaurant via their website, I never heard anything back.

      Both of my cocktails were too sweet and contained little alcohol. The seafood tasted strange (I'm guessing frozen or imitation), which is a shame given there are hundreds of local seafood companies. I've never had a waitress serve entrees and then hang around for 5 minutes trying to make conversation. A friend I was dining with received the wrong dish, and they were out of the next 2 dishes he ordered.

      First off, God Bless the South! They deep fry everything! They are my kind of people! I just have to exert a large amount of restraint each time, as I feel like ordering everything off the menu...
      The Deep fried Green tomatoes were simply amazing! They are the best I have ever had upto date!
      The jackfruit tacos are so delicious, the cauliflower tacos are a tad bit too salty, but what can one do when cauliflower is a filling!
      And the impossible burger hit all the right spots with the pickle inside that just gave it that right amount of pep to the burger!
      All praises to the chef!!!
      They are mighty slow though, so chill, enjoy your beer and strawberry lemonade like we did. The wait is worth it.
