   We waited 20 minutes to get a glass of wine and a shot of bourbon. It never came so we left. Terrible service and an indifferent server. Wish we had a chance to try the food but I fear it would have taken an eternity to ever experience it.

   We got sat at 1:45pm and did not get our food til almost 3pm. Mind you it was only some eggs and steak and a burger. Servers kept bringing food to the wrong tables. Our server was horrible and poorly groomed. She had a lot of extra items on our bill that weren’t for us. Flour tortillas were nasty. Chips for appetizers is $5. This place has gone downhill tremendously

   Have been wanting to try Alma the last few times I was in NOLA and couldn't get there. Made a point to try it this visit and I was not disappointed! Looking forward to trying it again. The space is on the smaller side, but it was cozy, cute, and did not feel crammed in at all. They also have outdoor seating. The food was fresh and full of flavor. Had a group of 5, everyone was highly satisfied with their meal. The Lemon Ricotta Pancakes were a great, sweet, starter for the table. We shared some plantains too and they were delicious. Our server Jake, was very fun and personable. Overall it was an awesome experience and I would recommend this neighborhood gem. A few of the dishes we had... The Brussel Sprout Bowl add Chicken - Looked so pretty, super fresh, great flavor. Baleada Sencilla - Huge and tasty! My sister and I split this, and still had food leftover. Avocado Toast add Eggs - Presentation was nice and taste was excellent. Dauphine Omelette - Vegetarian, fluffy eggs, fresh veggies, filling, and tasty. Don't miss out on this place!

   So glad to have stumbled upon this place while walking through Bywater. This cozy spot has some of the best food and drinks I have tasted in New Orleans. The Adult's French Toast was phenomenal! And I will be thinking about it for days! And the Medicina Por Favor was superb! I will definitely be making a trip back on my next visit!
