Nina-P's Cafe

So,so, so good! We had, chicken fried chicken, hamburger steak and gravy and Charles st Charles dinner. We also enjoyed fried green tomatoes. There was also some live jazz music this evening. Good atmosphere. Kid friendly and also has a bar. Definitely recommend

I ordered a to go order from there and DoorDash forgot my dressing for my salad. I called them and they were so nice and had someone bring it to me!! Great food and great customer service!!

The fried green tomatoes were absolutely amazing. They were also topped with the crawfish cream sauce. Oh so good! And the fried chicken with crawfish cream sauce with steamed veggies was delicious as well. And not skimpy either!

Good food, good service, and good atmosphere! Hostess was very polite and seated us promptly(we arrive the moment they opened). Crab cakes were cooked well and flavorful with little chunks of crab. They even drew hearts on each of the 2 for us(I guess since it was my wife and I with our daughter). C'est tout shrimp poboy was very large, great flavor, and well balanced between bread, cheese, shrimp, and etoufee sauce. Nice touch of a few fried shrimp on top too. Only downfall was how to eat it. I chose to go with the fork and knife method since there appeared to be no real ckean and easy way to eat it. Child's plate of shrimp was well cooked, flavorful, and had nice sized shrimp on it. The Voodoo burger was very good and flavorful, very filling, and cooked just right! Our server Bonnie did a great job, attentive, and considerate of any and all our needs(since our 2 year old was with us for high chair, cup needs, etc.).

The place is nice. Ordered the gumbo that was supposedly the best in town and was disappointed. I wouldn’t order it again but everyone likes their gumbo different; others at the table enjoyed it.

Gets crowded quick so get there early for lunch. Very friendly staff.

Love Nina P’s, taste of home in every bite you eat! Truly love the environment and choice of music. Will always continue to eat local ❤️

This was the loaded fried shrimp spud topped with a side of crawfish cream sauce!

Good food, it's a little $$, the beignets are biscuits cut into pieces and resemble donut holes.. actually, you be the judge! The main course was delicious(Fried Shrimp / Baked Potato). The wait staff seemed to be over worked. Perhaps a people shortage. I would go back and that's what matters.

Red Fish with stuffed crawfish cream sauce was very good. Fired green tomatoes was very good. Shrimp Po boy was good. Clean restaurant.

Crawfish bread is the best!!! Food is fantastic there. Wish the place was bigger though. Crowded when people waiting to sit and for to go orders are all standing around you while you eat.

Please allow me to preface this oratory by stating that I've waited tables at City Club, Pappania's and Pat's of Henderson. A girl friend and I both ordered the crawfish bread and crawfish potato. Our opening statement to the waitress was that we intended to get the potatos to go. There were roughly 8 waitresses that I could count with six customers. The wait was excessive, but I undersood that dinner shift was in about 30 minutes and wait staff were clocking in. After we finished the bread and the potatos were delivered, there was a lengthy delay before the waitress brought us 2 to-go's per our request. During that time, I ate the crawfish, cheese chives and butter from my potato. The waitress came to the table to take our cards and I asked her if she could recharge the inside of my potato. I expected to see the line item on the ticket.
After another lengthy delay, she returns with the ticket, takes my uneaten potato proper, my to-go container and goes to the back. I assumed she was restuffing it and boxing it as she told me she would ask the cook.
Mind you, I fully expected to pay. Had I not intended to keep my potato, why would we have asked for two to-go containers initially?

I noticed there was no additional charge on the ticket. I stayed at the table for close to thirty minutes before walking to the bar to track down our waitress to ask the where my potato was and whether she revised the check and how I would pay the difference.

She must have thought that I was basking in the ambiance of the chank-a-chank Zydeco blaring overhead. Without the first inclination to even come check on things, I inevitably had to speak to a manager that made me feel as if I was trying to get something for nothing.

I guess they assumed I was a poor potato hustler. After much banter back and forth over a $17 potato whose bare, unstuffed component costs appx. $0.79, they finally gave me an undressed potato to replace the one they tossed.

Nina P's - Where the P means 'Potat-toss.'

Due to the new Pandemic Great Potato Famine of 2023, all uneaten potatos must be recycled per Nina P policy. :)

The food was exceptional, but the waitstaff has been coined Image IQ - all image, minimal IQ. Some people should stick to pom-pom's and pep rallies.
