If you haven't been to this southern classic cafe in NOLA, you just have not fully experienced the NOLA. The food is just awesome -- always well prepared and carefully seasoned! The intoxicating, welcoming southern care and hospitality made our dining experience an extraordinary one!
Craving for Crawfish Étouffée since we arrived in NOLA. A quick search on Yelp led us to this little joint. Bon Ton Cafe located in the downtown area which not far away from the tourist spots, but this place haven’t fill out by tourists.
We came here around 11: 30 am in the morning, and the restaurant was getting packed since the business hour started. We can see many of the customers are locals. We knew Bon Ton Cafe is the place we had been looking for.
Ambiance: 5/5
The restaurant looks very old- style, which you can see in many old fashioned American movies.
Service: 5/5
The staffs are super friendly and attentive.
Ordered:
Crawfish Étouffée (5/5): The best Crawfish Étouffée that we had in NOLA, overflowing peeled Crawfish! It’s absolutely NOLA Only dish.
Oyster Alvin, with seasoned Rice (5/5): seems like deep fried oysters Étouffée. The oysters and mushroom Rice are soo good! The oysters are fresh and juicy.
Highly recommend if you are looking for classic, authentic New Orleans Food.
Came here just for dessert but was blown away by the lovely service, fabulous cocktail (Rum Ramsey), and charming atmosphere of brick, wood, and light Mardi Gras touches. This is a restaurant I could easily spend time in and I would love to try their entrées. Dessert was indeed wonderful and worth a stop. I expect the savories will be just as delicious.
