I stop at R house for dessert and found myself at Creole Soul. I ordered the bread pudding and it was so delicious warmed up. I'll have to return to check out the entrees.

The food is SO good. I got the lobster mac and cheese with salmon. The portion is really nice-sized. It's a bit expensive, but i'll have enough for another meal. The red velvet cornbread is better than I thought it would be, soft and sweet. I ordered through door dash. yes, the food is so good I had to come over here and tell people!! and it was still blow on it hot.

YUM! We got catfish and shrimp over grits with an amazing sauce. The shrimp were succulent and delicious. The grits were so good, we saved some and had them with breakfast. Will definitely be back.

Good place to go for taste of New Orleans. Can be a bit pricey ($24 for a po'boy sandwich and $18 for gumbo) . But the great northern beans I had were very well cooked . Lot of flavor and a little bit of meat. It was in the R house food court which can be noisy. But the foods there are good.

Lovely place inside of a food hall. Very relaxed atmosphere. The boys working behind the counter were kind and efficient! We sat and snacked on the beignets for about an hour, and they were amazing.

Yelp fam!!! I'm a big sandwich fan, PoBoys hold. Special place in my heart! That being said the PoBoys at Creole Soul were like that! When I initially walked up to the location to check out the menu I noticed a grandma in the back cooking/prepping food. That's all I needed to see. I ordered (She tired of little money need a) Big Boy - shrimp & lobster PoBoy - L,T,P & sauce comes with fries- this thing was fresh and Slapped!!! Solid crinkle fries with old bay! They had nana's banana pudding, had to try it. This is by far one of the best Banana puddings I've eaten! You can taste the love it was made with in every bite! Muddy creek water- 1/2 & 1/2 - great way to wash it all down. Sweet and familiar This spot is located inside of R house. The ambiance there is similar to Mt Vernon Marketplace. The service was great, very nice and attentive.
