    The service is extremely slow. We spent 40 minutes and only received waters and an appetizer. We never received the drinks we ordered and had to cut the meal short because our server never came back to check on us or get our food order. We were only the 2nd table in the building.

    This was our first visit and it was all extremely enjoyable. Our service was excellent! We had the cobb salad and breakfast burrito and a special hibiscus tea made by AJ. All were fresh and tasty. It was a very relaxing atmosphere. We will definitely return!

    Great breakfast all around and the mission of the cafe is incredible. Our server, Taylor, gave a great recommendation on the breakfast burrito with pico de Gallo. Chef also came out to speak with us and talk about the cafe which is always a treat.

    A secret lunch and brunch haven on Jackson Ave. near Tchoupitoulas- iced hibiscus tea, short ribs and the MOST INCREDIBLE vegetarian, gluten free sweet potato hash full of flavor and vegetables. Top it with a whole, fresh avocado and 2 eggs over medium for maximum pleasure! So glad I found this place. Beautiful design and a butterfly garden, too. The sweetest, most sincere service.

    Absolutely amazing! The service was prompt, friendly, kind and all around amazing! The food was out of this world! While the menu is small, it packs a large flavor and one of the most tasteful and fresh brunches I’ve ever had. Portions are great size and filling. You can taste the love in this place!

    I had the best biscuits of my life at Dragonfly Cafe. It was amazing, the people working were lovely, and the food was made with love and care. I wish we had gone at the beginning of the trip and not at the end - I could have gone more!

    We were at this restaurant around noon on a Sunday for breakfast and it was moderately busy. We ordered our food shortly after seating, then proceeded to wait over 90 minutes for it to be delivered! It was very obvious that the kitchen could not handle more than a couple of items at a time, and the chef was visibly confused and upset. When the food did arrive it was clear that some of the items had been sitting in the kitchen for a while--the melted cheese on my burrito was cold and hardened. This place needs serious help if it intends to survive!
