Melba's

We came here tonight for a late night bite and it was somewhat busy. We got two sausage egg cheese sandwiches on toast, pancakes with grits, biscuit, and chicken wings, and pancakes with grits and eggs. We ordered there and waited about 45 minutes until our food came out. The food was phenomenal! I was especially impressed with the buttery biscuit, moist pancakes, and flavorful eggs. The chicken wings were also really good and better than a lot of the chicken wings I've tried. Service was alright.Best way to eat food here is probably order an hour ahead so you get your food right away. Otherwise you'd wait awhile, but the food was definitely worth the wait!

We went to Melba's last night for a late night po-boy after a night of listening to incredible music at various locations around the city.We ordered 2 fried shrimp po-boys and 2 fried fish po-boys. The po-boys were delicious as always. The service is why my review is low. We waited more than an hour for 4 po-boys. The restaurant was not busy. When the food was served, there was no apology. I would think this was an anomaly except we had the same experience at two other Melba's locations.This is a shame because Melba's has been my go-to for years.

Everything! I absolutely don't know what happened to Melva"s especially the one on Tulane. FOOD I'd not the same! We had a party of 6 and went to Melva's with a big appetite. The Manager and the cashier were nice. Nevertheless, we got home only to learn my fish plate and my Brothers who was visiting from put of town received smelly and soggy fish plates. Literally soon as we untied the bags and opened our plates you could smell and see it. The fish was no good. I immediately called to speak to the Manager but he left ot to the cashier to deal with me regarding the matter.Yes she offered us to come get another plate. Why? No thank you, I just want a refund please? I hear the Manager talking and was advised my refund would be on my card 3-5 business day..#StillWaitingWe used to go to Melva's often but never again. Okay this was Saturday September 28, 2024...today is Wed. Oct 9th 2024Waiting on à 30. refund out of 80. Plus dollars I spent...it's cool. I'm done. ‍‍

RUN!!! Only one person making food. Waited an hour for a breakfast sandwich. Only one out of 20+ people waiting inside received their food.

Gave two stars because it was one of few late night options open. My food was not good. I got the roast beef platter. The beef was incredibly dry and incredibly salty. The rice it was over was undercooked. The green beans were okay but had some weird chewy pieces. Cornbread was gross. Maybe the breakfast is better...

The food tasted good but the rice was hard and not cooked all the way and i had to wait over 40 minutes for my food. After waiting over 30 minutes i was notified that the jambalaya wasn't going to be ready no time soon so they change it to fries. the cornbread tasted good and the price is reasonable.

Food bland, cafeteria type set up.. Service ok but overall I wouldn't recommend if you looking for some savory food, maybe just a quick grab and go to hold you over...

The service was extremely bad we waited almost an hour . Mind you the place was not packed at all and still had to wait an hour for a hot sausage sandwich and bourbon chicken. Although, the sandwich was really good. The workers was unprofessional they was talking to other people while people needs to order their food.

I drove past this cute blue and white double decker building for weeks. So, I decided to order a Togo. The delivery destination was just 1.4 miles on the same street of the restaurant. We ordered three orders of fried shrimp Po boys with Fries. The food was delivered at room temperature. The French bread was pretty in a picture. Though it was as dense as a brick (inedible). Sadly, the protein was a low-quality Shrimp. The veggies were freshly cut on a plus note. Also, I prefer house fresh tartar sauce. Kraft tartar sauce and ketchup packets were provided in my Togo bag. The French fries were not hot or cut in house. All in all, we were dissatisfied with our dining experience. I encourage you to look at my photos.

This is the second time I came to this restaurant while visiting for Mardi Gard just so I can be far but the baked chicken had no seasoning, the mac and cheese was horrible the cheese was not melted and the bottom of my container was oily also why isn't elbow noodles used instead, the greens beans had no flavor what so ever it taste like it came straight from the can, I was very disappointed for this city to be all about Creole there was nothing Cerole, or flavorful about this place.
