Feelings Cafe Restaurant Review

: For more than 30 years, Feelings Café has been one of the best-kept secrets in town, but locals like it that way. Housed in an early-1800s brick-and-masonry cottage with a picturesque little courtyard, Feelings offers a setting as quaintly Old New Orleans as you’ll find at any restaurant in town. Dinner is a hearty affair, often beginning with such delights as golden fried soft-shell crawfish with Italian seasonings and moving to a leafy salad with Mandarin oranges and almonds. The chef excels with such rich meat entrées as pork medallions in Creole mustard with peppercorns. The Chicken Clemenceau is a signature dish, pan-sautéed with garlic butter, and topped with fresh mushrooms and peas. The wine list is appropriate for the size of the restaurant and the menu --- look for a strong assortment of hearty reds and just enough “medium-weight” whites. The ambience begs you to stay a while and enjoy dessert (try the French silk pie) or after-dinner drinks on a cozy patio surrounded by banana trees. By the way, if you have the urge to belt out a tune in public, stop by the piano lounge and sing to your heart’s content.
