Must have gator bites!
Food was amazing and service was excellent. Waitress Teresa was 10/10
But chef Derrell was above and beyond offering special sauces and giving us a more in depth about our dishes.

The food was great. Darryl took great care of us as tourists and people new to the area. Gave us suggestions of different places to eat and explore, truly a great person and waiter! We appreciated his service and help greatly!

Listen, if you truly want to enjoy a meal here then go with Ms. Shanei area of service because she greeted us with the biggest smile amd warm welcome. She suggested a jambalaya bowl with chicken and sausage and my partner had a bowl of gumbo which BTW was gone even before I could take a pic lol. I wanted a cocktail and upon her suggestion got a 'Lemonade' with dbl the alcohol. Let me tell ya - Shanei is the best. Excellent service.

The staff at the market cafe are the absolute best in the city. My partner and I were in New Orleans for a couple weeks and we ended up at this place at least once a day whether for food or a quick drink to go. It’s by far my favorite spot in the city. I wanna give a massive shout out to both Bridgets, Shani and James. You guys are all absolutely amazing. The best service we’ve ever gotten and y’all made us sad to have to leave the city. Thank you guys and can’t wait to come back and see y’all again.

This market is friendly and warm, there is outdoor and indoor seating. They even have a great jazz band out front to enjoy. Our server Darryl was such a joy and helpful with finding our way through their menu. He gave my boyfriend and I great recommendations on food and amazing New Orleans hospitality. Can’t wait to come back on our next visit.

Wonderful music, great drinks and food, plenty of seating, friendly staff. The only downside is there's one bathroom stall for the whole place!

We visited as part of a foodie tour.
Our server was so funny and personable. The food was absolutely wonderful!!
We had alligator bites-- which were not tough and definitely the best alligator I've ever had! Full of flavor.
My husband got a bloody Mary. He said it was delicious. He's had better ones... but he says for the price point... it was awesome.
We were also given the muffuletta sandwich, on that amazing bread...and the oil dip.
Delicious! You don't have to like olives to find this perfect sandwich amazing!!
Go there! Eat it! Lol

Bridget was AMAZING!! What a personality and what spectacular service. I can't rave enough about this place. The food was dynamite! the sandwich was perfect and the jambalaya was a burst of flavor every bite! This should be a stop on everyone's list each time you come over here.
