Satsuma Cafe Dauphine St - New Orleans

Hip and crowded but a decent spot to get a tofu scramble or a fresh juice if you stay in the neighborhood

The large coffee comes in an oversized mug and was overly superdelicious must have been the agave sweetener, yum. They had a special of a vegan portobello and spinach sandwich with pesto. It was soooo green and savory, my first thought was to wonder how long the specials last so that maybe I could come back tomorrow and order it again! The service was very fast (maybe the specials are ready to go). It's a hip place with art on the walls and a laid back atmosphere. Oh, also the sign outside is neato: black with orange transparent letters that reflect as you walk by.

I have enjoyed their veggie sandwich, which comes with locally grown, in-season veggies such as eggplant and squash. I asked for the vegan pesto and vegan cheese and it was delicious, albeit expensive-around $8 or $9. It does come with a fresh, delicious side salad though and they usually have vegan soup. Plan on staying for a little while-service can be slow so be patient. Cool little cafe.

I don't know why we waited until the end of our trip to visit this place. big mistake. this place is my favorite place to eat! Finally, a place where we all (carnivores and vegan) can enjoy amazing eating and great atmosphere. we have: blueberry pancakes my friend who loves pancakes and believes them to me, he has probably ordered hundreds of them at different places, said that this pancake was the best of all he ever had fluffy, light, delicious. he probably dreams of this pancake to this day. he also got a Mexican breakfast maker with a touch and he loved it too. quiona eggs, my other friend who brought us here, this time has some of the specials. he tries to go for healthier decisions, and he didn't regret it at all, he loved it. I went for vegan curry scramble with both quinoa and tofu delicious, creamy, healthy, easy. I really wish we had you in nyc! we also have a vegan-baked sweet, unfortunately I don't remember the names. but I remember how delicious it was with coffee. the staff was very friendly, happy and helpful. Inside and outside seats (beautiful terrace and if they have luck, they can meet a cat who like to hang around there and wifi are perfect for those with laptops. we love this place and if we are back in nola, this is the first stop: ps: even the toilet room is exceptional: updated from the previous review on 2018-09-10

Worth it for the walk alone, Satsuma is located in the quiet, residential Bywater neighborhood, a world away from the touristy bustle (and street hustle) of the French Quarter. Their staff was very friendly during my two visits. The casual decor inside is comfortable and inviting and they also have seating outside in pretty, plant-shaded courtyard. The food menu is extensive with some good vegan options. They also have a full coffee bar and fresh juices, something for everyone really. I chose the tofu and black bean breakfast and a Green Drink juice. The meal was flavourful and very filling, I almost couldn't finish it! Would highly recommend this place to anyone.
