Had to stop here because it’s like a landmark of New Orleans. We made the best decision to arrive at opening time when it was practically empty. They look at you kind of crazy like you’re supposed to know that you just grab a table and sit anywhere… We were rushed to order and since it was my first time, I wanted to browse a menu, but you’re not really afforded the time so Chicory Coffee and Beignets it is. I was astonished at the heaping mound of powered sugar on top of the beignets, and spilling over the sides of the plate. It wasn’t overly sweet, and was hot and quite good, but it makes a mess if you don’t shake off what you can. The Chicory Coffee was fine. Nothing extra spectacular. Best part of the visit was the brass band playing outside. That was the real treat for an early morning!

Note: They only take cash and the nearest ATM is a block or two down the street.

This was such a savvy and cozy spot! We were a few minutes short of arriving for breakfast, but the lunch menu did not disappoint. Our server was friendly and quite helpful in assisting with our food selections. The Maryland Crab Deviled Eggs, Smoked Chicken Salad with Chipotle Vinaigrette, and the 8 oz. Sirloin Steak were all beautifully plated and even better tasting! If we could’ve sampled the entire menu, we would’ve; but, we’ll be back for more!

After finding out that the hotel’s restaurant served Milk & Honey during breakfast and brunch hours, I already knew where I was dining that morning. I’ve never had a bad experience at any M&H location! The food was delicious, fresh, and flavorful, per usual. With the exception of the young server getting a bit distracted occasionally, our service was not bad either. The Crab Cake Benedict and the Cinnamon Roll w/ fresh berries were a perfect pairing!
