Crabmeat Grilled Cheese. Sounds like a gimmick, right? I mean, you can't have meat on a grilled cheese sammich! Wrong. ;)First off, Liz herself greeted us at the door and helped us get seated. It was packed, as usual, but there were two spots at the bar just waiting for me and Petunia. Handing us to the amazing Fallon, Liz wished us a great meal and a wonderful day - we were happy to oblige!Fallon got us started with some drinks and we decided on the Crabmeat Grilled Cheese with sweet potato fries on the side. I say "we," but that's only because we were sharing the sandwich P brought me here to eat. :DThe fries were good, could have been crispier for my taste (I'll remember to ask for it next time), but the sandwich was so super delicious I didn't miss it! The toast is perfectly crisped all around, but once you break through that shell, the creamy, crabby goodness fills your mouth with so much love. Creamy and cheesy, and full of wonderful crab flavor - I wanted to eat the whole thing, but I was really glad Petunia took half...we were so full we didn't even finish the fries.So, crabmeat grilled cheese is a new favorite of mine, thank you, Petunia, for introducing us. But there is soooo much more to this menu, meaning there is something for everyone. Great bennies (egg benedict dishes), breakfast items on demand, sandwiches of many shapes and sizes.The only question left is, Where Y'at, you?

Great early morning breakfast place. I got there about 615am & was greeted at the door by my waitress Chris.I ordered coffee, sausage gravy & biscuit with a side of crispy bacon.The food came out quick & was hot & tasty. Chris checked on me several times & gave me a sweet tea to go in a cool cup for later. I liked it so much that I came back all 4 days that I was staying in Covington.I will be back when I return to the area.

This restaurant definitely lives up to the hype! It got recommended to us by multiple people so we had to try it!The place is super cute in the way they decorate it and it's very spacious inside. We came during lunch on a Friday so we had no trouble getting a seat, but I've heard that the wait can be quite long on the weekends. Our waitress was also amazing! She conversed with us about the menu and we joked around quite a bit. She knew the menu really well and made some great recommendations! I ended up getting the Where Y'At Bennies Mix with the BBQ Shrimp and Big Easy Bennies. They were both different tastes with one being a grit cake and the other being a crab cake. I especially liked the Big Easy Bennie. My friend got the Gleason Scrambler which she enjoyed.The menu is extensive so I would definitely come back to try something else! Service: AA+, the service was excellent!Drinks: Full bar. I got a Bloody Mary and my friend got a Mimosa.Parking: There is a small parking lot.Outside Seating: There didn't appear to be any outdoor seating.

This is a lively and quaint little diner. The food is delicious! Busiest on Saturday and Sunday, so expect alittle wait with getting seated and for your food to be served. It's worth it though, we ordered the Gleason Scrambler, The Big Easy and Veggie Scrambler. All with cheese grits. I highly recommend having their homemade buttery biscuit too! All so satisfying and yummy.

Someone recommended that we eat here when visiting Covington. This place has a funky fun atmosphere with loud but enjoyable music. Our server was very friendly and pleasantly greeted us at our table. I ordered the Shrimp Po'boy sandwich - a 12" French loaf with fried green tomatoes, Louisiana style boiled shrimp, spring mix lettuce, drizzled with remoulade sauce and served with potato chips. I thought the bread-to-shrimp ratio was too much, the shrimp were tasteless, and the fried green tomato was not fully cooked. All I could taste was the remoulade sauce, which was good, but otherwise the flavors were disappointing and the sandwich was dry and ordinary! My wife had eggs, with chorizo sausage, and grits that were buttery and delicious! Since we are from MN, we got some good advice about visiting New Orleans during our stay.

I've never had anything bad here! The food is exceptional and that's saying something in Louisiana! Always great portions and wonderful flavor. Every waitress is sweeter than the next, but no one sweeter than Mrs. Liz! The vibrant colors of the inside and outside of the restaurant are reflective of Lizs beautiful personality.

Great food, great vibe makes for a happy brunch experience. Worth the wait- and the fresh made juices are the freshest around...also nice with a little nip or two.Not sure any diner could grab the 5th star- but this place has heart, soul & taste..all the makings of love in the food.

What an absolute delight! My wife and I decided to take a leisurely drive across the lake and she wanted a waffle - we searched "waffles Mandeville" and this place stood out in the search results. I'm so glad we came. The service here is phenomenal - southshore Brennan's quality without the haughtiness. The food was good and the menu is tantalizing, but to me the kind nurturing neighborhood vibe and level of service really stood out. Come support this woman-owned business right across the lake, y'all. If you're lucky, Liz will greet you at the door. We'll be back.

Recently tried Liz's for breakfast and everything was so delicious. I got the debris grits, my fiancé got a plain old boring waffle, and we shared the biscuits and gravy. My debris grits were phenomenal! I ordered a large and ended up eating the entire thing. Biscuits and gravy were also delicious. Biscuits were both crunchy and fluffy (not soggy like you sometimes get at other places) and the gravy was perfect. Even my fiancés plain boring waffle that I teased him for ordering was really good. After seeing these reviews, I definitely want to try the banana foster pancakes next time, but I'll have to make sure I'm pretty hungry beforehand because I'm definitely ordering the debris grits and biscuits and gravy again.
