Turgeau's

I am not judging the food...... YET. LOL. This spot is quaint and can't wait to go back to try the food. My hubby and I went to the cigar shop next door and I saw the owners outside. One of them was taking pictures, so I went in to grab a drink. The server informed me that they were, but the owners..... WHOOP WHOOP.... Open the spot for me. Lol. They were great and I can't wait to go back to try the food, sit in the restaurant, and enjoy it. Great place, even if you just go to see the owners.

We enjoyed lunch at Turgeau's this afternoon. It was our first visit and my wife and I chowed down on the shrimp and grits and the signature gumbolaya (which is an excellent hearty chicken and sausage gumbo served with a mild jambalaya instead of the traditional white rice). Both shrimp and grits and gumbolaya were extraordinary! Accompanying side Caesar and house salads were also very good. Turgeau's occupies a vintage storefront space in downtown Covington and is both trendy and comfortable. The menu features an eclectic mix of breakfast and interesting takes on traditional Louisiana favorites and a full bar and specialty cocktails are available. Service was both friendly and welcoming, and our iced tea glasses were never allowed to be empty. Turgeau's is highly recommended!

Turgeau's is located in downtown Covington. It's small. It was cold. There's paintings on the wall....the theme was all over the place. The interesting part about the place there was coffee bean bags on the ceiling. The service was good. The my dish was decent (shrimp & grits). My friend had the Turkey melt which he really loved!

Pros and cons, cons first as its why I wont be returning or recommending to others and feel conned. If it was a genuine mistake and made right I will of course let yall know. Cons: - charged fully for an 'included' side with a hamburger, which was listed off from a number of included sides. - Upcharged for a gluten free item, thats not unherad of, however the charge Not listed anywhere on the menu (as other gf upcharges are if applicable) nor was in informed when I asked if it was available. - advertised as allergen safe and friendly, but listed on menu you will be paying extra for cross contamination safety as well - you don't see your receipt until after you pay so you tip before you see the extra money they've already billed you for both incorrectly and simply by hiding there are extra charges on menu or verbally. Saw the charges attempting to eat my frozen muffin on car ride home as I had chosen text receipt.Pros: - id say service but they blatantly hide charges from you and ask what included side you want to charge full price for it after. friendly demenor though, may be honest mistake - the ingredients and allergens listed in the menu (listed for yall in my review)- they support local bakers and buisnesses- ambiance of the place was okay, the guitar player was probably the best part and made it 100 times better and made sure he got tipped as well- the bags on the ceiling (I see bad reviews on these) these are to help loud sound be absorbed! It's to create a quite atmosphere for youBit of both:- my muffin was late as the first was burnt so they made me another and even threw in a free pastry for the wait, that muffin was in fact frozen when I took a bite. These things happen, they handled it well but with the amount I was charge extra for it dosent even even out- food varies from very good to basic Overall, the multiple charges not listed and incorrectly charged that I only got to see after leaving the tip on top of the higher price tag and small servings (ever held a quarter muffalata in the palm of your hand? I haven't as I have pretty small hands) today I did and it was $9 plus a fun bonus charge that was hid from me. Won't be going back for sure, sadly. I had such high hopes to start that ended up in a strong dissapointment.

Delicious gumbo and grits..My sister enjoyed the avocado toast. Pleasant waitstaff. Dirty kitchen door was disgusting. If my guest and I noticed that door, staff should have. Had lunch there Oct 20th and Oct 22nd. My sister visiting from California loved the vegan options.

I'm so happy we stumbled upon this little gem! They are very allergy friendly, while still providing some of the best traditional plates. Fun art, amazing customer service and the food *Chefs kiss* I wish Yelp would let me upload all the photos.

Great cocktails and healthy options available. Friendly staff. Quaint atmosphere. Would come again.

We went in to try it, she said sit anywhere, we were the only table o. Restaurant, 5 minutes we hadn't been greeted not offered drinks , we left and the girl didn't even say sorry or goodbye. This place will never make it. Why be open if you aren't prepared.

The service is amazing the food is good all set in a little restaurant that says New Orleans. The prices are fair all in all a relaxed good time

Eclectic little joint with amazing food. We dropped in to have brunch and we were not disappointed. The staff were great... don't miss this hidden gem.
