Mr Everything Cafe

I live close by and always meant to run in. Let me just say, my food was 5 stars. Took a while to be ready, but they don’t advertise to be fast food and I wasn’t in a major hurry anyway. It took maybe 15 minutes. I got the grilled chicken rice bowl. Lots of veggies, well seasoned chicken, mixed all together and it was great. I ate all of it, minus the rice for only dietary reasons, right there. The –1 star is for the girl taking my order. She wasn’t especially friendly during the ordering process but I tipped her 20% on my to go order. Whatever. When my food was ready, she called my name, handed it to me, I said my warmest, kindest «thank you so much» and was not even met with eye contact. Incredibly rude, especially to a low maintenance, nice-​tipping customer who asked nothing of you. I’ll come back but just because the food was great.

Having driven past this café many times, I decided to give it a try on my lunch hour. The menu looked interesting, but I had to wait almost 10 minutes to place my order because the girl on the counter had stepped out (–1 star). My order was straightforward — a vegetarian sandwich — but I had difficulty understanding her questions which were mumbled. When I asked her to repeat, she became impatient (–1 star). When I paid, there was no thank you and it took another 25 minutes for my half-​sandwich to be prepared (–1 star). It was finally handed to me in a brown paper bag that was oozing grease from the bottom, and by the time I got back to my office, what I unwrapped was a soggy disaster of unidentifiable vegetables, melted cheese that had stuck to the wrapper, and liquidized bread. I had to eat what I could salvage with a fork (–1 star)
Others obviously had more positive experiences here, but the combination of multiple negative factors would prevent me from giving them another try. Too many excellent cafes in this city to waste my time and money.

I review places based on if I would ever go back. I had a groupon that brought me there. The Philly cheese steak sandwich was good and the portions were great enough to feed two for the large. Definitely going back! Quick tip if you’re not in a rush definitely go there. If you’re rushing you may want to call and order ahead.

I really wanted to like this place.
The prices are decent, and it was almost empty when I arrived.
I placed my order and waited with 2 hungry toddlers for our food to arrive.
It took 30 minutes for our dishes to arrive and although I had ordered it
to go, was brought to me all tied up in a bag in styro containers.
My children by this timer were HANGRY, so I picked up my food and kids and went home to eat.
I had the Gyro sandwich which was not too bad, not too good, but not too bad.
My children split a Chicken Quesadilla, which although substantial in size, was pretty soggy.
I found the culprit, they grilled it with lettuce inside.
You NEVER grill lettuce, it gets soggy, wilty and pretty gross.
It also makes everything around it equally as sad, ergo the soggy quesadilla.
Overall, not a good experience.
I will go back for one more shot.
Maybe Mr Everything, has bitten off more than he can handle food wise.
Maybe he should scale it down to «Mr Somethings» and focus on quality and service.
That’s my take on everything considered, for Mr Everyrthing.

Love this restaurant! The atmosphere is friendly, the food is very fresh, and everything we tried was delicious.

The stuffed potato was EVERYTHING! See what I did there? ;) Super yummy and very filling. The patties were ok, the potatoes definitely made up for what it was lacking. The staff was great abs super patient with all of my questions! :)

Mr. Everything is sweet and welcoming, and his kitchen is doing it right. Best wings I’ve had in a long time, and he’s only using healthy, natural chicken. His whole thing is using prime ingredients to make soul recipes. Sandwich we got was delicious too– Can’t wait to go back. Support this little place– It’s one of those that I hope grows strong and becomes an institution, because I like the people behind it, the food and the message.

Went here to grab dinner to go. Place was empty. When we got home the wings were dry and obviously had been sitting for hours. Red beans were dry, too. Disappointed as had tasted a chicken plate of a friend before, and it was tasty, the reason for trying them on our own.

Their rice dishes are awesome. Great balanced lunch that leaves you full but also includes plenty of veggies.

Mr. Everything’s is yet another example of how the eateries around the courthouse are stepping up their game. When we walked in, we were pleasantly surprised to see that this was not just one of the filthy greasy-​spoon-​type places that used to plague this area. Granted, it’s no fine dining hall restaurant, but it appeared to be very clean and sanitary.
I had the Queens Style Gyro, which was delicious, but a little heavy. My friend had the Lamb Rice Dish, which he also enjoyed. My only complaints would be that (1) the food seemed to take a long time, given that there were not many people in the restaurant; and (2) many of the dishes seemed to contain A LOT of the same ingredients. I would have liked to have seen a bit more diversity. Overall, I’d recommend this as a good lunch spot.

Been here a bunch of times. I have to say, they are intolerably slow, and pricey for what you get. They had 1 order ahead of us, and those people have eaten and left and i’m still waiting on a salad and a sandwich. 30 minutes! Slack.

5 stars around the board. Good customer service (which I always harp on), GREAT food. Everything is fresh — one thing though, they don’t fry anything. So no fries, etc, but they do have chips. My boyfriend got the lamb burger on hoagie bread, which came with chipotle sauce, tomatoes, Gouda cheese, and lettuce. I got the chicken quesadillas, which was laid out in a nice presence and were DELICIOUS. The woman at the counter showed no hesitation to explain what was on the menu, and also share her favorites. One thing she did say, EVERYTHING is good, and from the two things I’ve tried on the menu, I’ll be coming back for more!

I had the salmon yellow rice dish. I think I ordered the wrong thing ! It wasn’t bad, I’m just not a fan of fried rice, plus it needed more seasoning .
I’ll give this place another try eventually.

Definitely one of New Orleans’ best kept secrets! We enjoyed a chicken rice plate that included loads of deliciousness and fresh ingredients! The okra gumbo was jam packed with meat and flavor! The portions were generous and the price was sweet. We will definitely be stopping by frequently.

Went to this place off of a recommendation from a friend. I was told this was a «healthy sandwich shop.» Upon arriving and looking at the menu to find that they had red beans, all the idea of eating healthy flew out of the window. As far as health food, this is far from being terrible; but it’s not all that healthy either.
I ordered the whole cheesesteak and had them take off everything except peppers and onions. I was surprised to see how big it was (that’s what she said). I ordered to-​go and when I finally bit Ito the sandwich, I tasted a bit of heat. They had jalapeño peppers in there as well. At first, I was a little upset because I only wanted bell peppers and onions; not even realizing that they would even add jalapeños. After another bite, I kept wanting more. It was the perfect combination of spice and savor. So good, that o had to go back!
The reasoning for the four star rating is because of the slight smell of sewerage at the front door. I wouldn’t attribute that to the kitchen though as the smell is terrible in that whole area of town. *womp, womp*

We were walking by and decided to try the veggie stuffed potato. It was big and very good.

I had the salad, with salmon. Best salad I’ve had in a while. Very filling. Cook a and cashier were very nice. I’ll definitely return to this place to try more things.

This place came recommended by two good friends of mine who’s taste in food is highly trusted by me. After weeks of it being in my bookmarks, i finally made my way down to Broad and Bienville for one of those world famous grilled chicken sandwiches. The wait was brief, but the goods were every bit of goodness!
I ordered the whole because i was told it could serve as two meals (depending on how hungry you are, you could probably do it all in one sitting). It’s been a couple weeks since my first visit but as i’m revisiting this place and my experience in my head, i think it’s time for another stop in.
Saints game is on tho, it’ll have to wait until halftime :) #WhoDat!

So good! He really does have everything. The salmon sandwich was scrumtralescent. The healthy rice dish (which was blanketed in cheese) was delicious and oh so filling. You might be able to feed a small family with that dish alone.
Just a fair warning — beware of the fountain drinks (aka koolaid cooler). I came on a hot summer day and ended up drinking about four cups of lemonade. It was so good but I’m pretty sure it almost put me into a diabetic coma. Learn from my mistakes and pace yourself!

Great Food, at a Great price. When you walk in your greeted with a smile. With lots of space to even have a Meet & Greet. But I went for the food. ITS A MUST GO people.
