Friendly service. Good food. Not super cheap but portions were huge. Very cute atmosphere. Cozy diner type.
The BEST Fried Chicken we've ever had. The owner was really attentive. Will be back next trip to NOLA!
Came here for brunch and we got the chicken strips and waffles. We also got fries to share. It was so good. The employees were super nice.
It was late and we needed food. A whole day of travel and tourism and we were tapped. The hotel staff told us Daisy Mae's was open until 5 am so we were in. We walked in and Megan greeted us and sat us right down. The vibe was nice. Local history in the walls, TVs on the Olympics and a hometown sit down bar. The menu said they are know for their chicken and waffles so all four us got a variation. I orders the all white. The menu photos lied, the food looked way better in person. Two wings and a humongous breast. Now I've eaten a lot of fried chicken in my life so take this with respect. This is second to NONE outside of my wife's chicken. I've had Kentucky fried chicken in Louisville and this blew it away. Crisp, juicy and hot. The skin had a slight garlic flavor and was spiced to perfection. The waffles were the perfect mix of crisp and moist. We clean plated all four plates. It was so good I came back for breakfast. Shrimp and grits are on point. Shrimp had a nice grilled crisp and creole spice. The rue that they uses was slightly sweet and savory. The grits were good, just not as creamy as I would make. I still wanted a second order though. Do yourself a favor and visit Daisy Mae's
While staying nearby I stopped in here for breakfast one morning, as I was seeking a country-style breakfast. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and engaging which I found very nice. The menu is loaded with many nice options, I chose their Mae's Breakfast Sandwich, which was fried chicken on a waffle with a side of sausage gravy. The waffle was incredible! Very tasty and made very fresh! The chicken in the sandwich was also awesome!! The sausage gravy was a basic, very white style which isn't really what I'm partial too, but it tasted ok. I also tried a side of their red beans and rice and that was pretty darn tasty! Overall, I really enjoyed this visit and would recommend stopping in!
Stopped in for lunch. I honestly had never heard of this little place so while waiting for our table I read over the reviews. Felt a little nervous since some reviews were not that good. Happy to say I was pleasantly surprised by my chicken and waffles. Those waffles were literally some of the best I've ever had. They could have been a touch crispier for me but since it's a personal preference I will not count it against them. I chose the chicken tenders and I felt they were seasoned well, very fresh and hot! Also a big portion of chicken! Our waitress was nice and efficient! They could spruce up the dining area a little. Most definitely hope to return soon!
Food was tasty Service was on point Portions were huge Price was right Chicken was seasoned really good and my pancakes were yummy The tomatoes were ok.
