"Breakfast Republic has classics like omelets and scrambles, along with more creative things like a turkey meatloaf smash or vegan breakfast burrito with plant-based eggs. That’s to say, there’s something that’ll please everyone. At the top of our go-to list are the crab and crawfish cakes. The patties are generously packed with seafood, and the creamy hollandaise sauce balances out the nice bit of heat from guajillo chilis and blackberry tang. Breakfast Republic has become so popular that there are now a couple throughout town, but the one Downtown makes for an easy meeting point whether you’re in town for a bachelorette or something at the convention center. Every location has a Christopher Walken sign at the entrance cheekily reiterating, “No reservations, Walkens only.” " - sabrina medora
