The menu at Orlandeaux’s Café showcases some of the best Creole and soul food you will ever have. You can find shrimp and grits, gumbeaux, Étoufée, po-boys, red beans and rice, and any delicious soul food dish you crave.

Latisha offered us dessert and claimed that the beignets were delicious. My friend Kaitlin and I looked at each other and we were determined it was the perfect thing to finish the night.
