Great breakfast - bring plenty of cash. I have gone to the LC for years. When I had lots of cash, I didn't think a think of the prices. But now I'm looking for a job and have to consider every dollar spent. $10 or $12 bucks for eggs, even a big breakfast, is too much. I think Louisiana Cafe should downsize the portions (just like TGIF Fridays) and downsize the cost accordingaly. I just won't go there again until I win the lottery.

That said, there isn't a better place for breakfast. The Cajun breakfast is terrific and I order it without mushrooms and peppers (I think if you have to eat fungi and disgusting peppers, it should be an add-on, not an undiscounted take off). I have a well to do relative to took me there recently and the Zydeco French toast was wonderful.

What, by the way, is this business of closing after lunch? I guess if your menu prices are lofty enough you don't have to work long.

Very busy, I know why!. I can in today (Memorial Day) and it was packed! Despite having to wait for a table because it was so packed my family and I had a great time. The hostess was very sweet and sat us as soon as she cleaned a table. As soon as we sat down our server was there with water. I could tell the servers were very busy (it looked like only 4 of them for the whole place) but that did not give our server a bad attitude. We have come here before and gotten poor service from a male server but I am glad we gave it a second chance. The food was great as usual.

Since when is Louisiana a suburb of yuk?. Firstly can we get someone actually from Louisiana to cook here? People were displaced right? Can't we get some creole love up here in the tundra? This place is about as Cajun as a stick of juicy fruit.

My crab cake Benny (which sounds great) looked like it was pooped out of a toaster. And the H sauce was like melted plastic.

This place sucked and I am never ever going back.

I still don't understand why it was so crowded.

If you do eat there eat before you go. Don't go hungry.

Great food, great staff, great neighborhood. I'm a fairly frequent patron of the Louisiana, and while I will often go for the Tex-Mex and take most of it home with me (the portions are *huge*) I sometimes scale back to the great bowl of oatmeal with brown sugar and sourdough toast. The coffee is good, and service people are great. While the monster-sized signature dishes are a little spendy, they're pretty good if you realize you're getting at least two meals out of it. I've often done a split-plate on the cajun breakfast and still had left overs.
