Lavittas

Overall a nice experience, the atmosphere was relaxed and the service was good. Supremely enjoyed the crawfish cakes. Curious to see what other seasonal items Chef Thomas has lined up in the future!

We went here with a family of 4 and ordered the lamb/grits, the blueberry pancakes, and the regular pancakes. The service we had was great, however the flavor and the portion size needs to be improved. The lamb was tasty, but the grits did not have much flavor. We were also disappointed with the small portion of lamb. The pancakes also were not good. It lacked a sweetness that you expect from pancakes and they were undercooked (doughy). Not worth $18 for 2 pancakes. We did not finish our meals. We told the server about our experience and paid for our meal before we left. The restaurant did not offer anything such as a new meal or a discount for our poor food experience.

I visited Lavitta's a few weeks ago and had a fantastic experience. I ordered the Wild Shrimp Avocado Bowl and Crawfish Cakes, both of which were delicious—the shrimp was perfectly cooked, and the avocado bowl was fresh and flavorful. The Crawfish Cakes were mouthwatering. For dessert, the Beignets were light, fluffy, and irresistible. The food was excellent, and the service was outstanding. The restaurant's unique Creole vibe and charming antique decor makes it standout. I’m excited to return and try more of their menu!

Attended with some friends to celebrate an event and the overall experience was not a plus. We received an apology from the owner and coming in with a clear mind for the new restaurant we gave her grace. However, from the multitude of issues with the waiter not allowing us to make adjustment to the menu, giving us a hard time to get a side of an item. It seems as if they were not prepared for the group of people in the building driving up wait times and pushing out food that is not yet at its peak quality. Consistency is important. When others at the table receive the same dish as you but all 3 have different tastes OR when food comes out not hot to the table, there’s a true problem with the systems in place. Constructively, we may need to take a moment to re-evaluate the way in which w

Food is amazing!!! Love the retro vibe and service was spectacular, thanks Jimmy and Lola!!!
