"Blue Line is a sandwich haven in Old Metairie. In addition to a breakfast panini served on chewy pressed ciabatta and a fried egg and corned beef sandwich on seven-grain, diners can go big with the duck-duck-goose waffle, a duck confit and sweet potato hash-topped waffle with foie gras butter, cane syrup drizzle, and two fried eggs. Lunch is equally enticing, when hearty salads are topped with the likes of roasted Brussels sprouts, edamame, and quinoa, and sandwiches range from light and simple grilled cheese and chicken salad sandwiches to corned beef and duck pastrami, Philly cheesesteaks, and Cubans." - Beth D'Addono

Amazing food, we had the grilled cheese and tomato soup and the chicken salad sandwich. Both were amazing!!!! Their fries are also to die for! Quick service and fun vibe.

Over Priced Under Whelmed. First impression was dimly lit, second impression was they don't turn the lights on to hide the trash on the floor, the place looked like a teenagers room, trash strewn everywhere, tables covered in dirty dishes, floor littered with trash. My go to when trying a new place is a side of sausage and biscuits and gravy. Why? Because it is very difficult to screw that up. Imagine my surprise when this place excelled at screwing up the most basic of dishes. They do not serve sausage patties only links. My 2 biscuits arrived on a smallish plate. And the gravy had a yellow tinge to it with a red seasoning. It tasted sour. I never knew cooked sausage to present it self as pink. Yet there it was mingling with the gravy. The temperature was odd. Sporadic bites would be warm, while the rest definitely had not been heated. Oddly enough the plate bottom was warm to the touch. God bless microwaves. I asked the waitress to please take it back and warm it up. Now the old hippy doesn't eat as much as he used to. He just wanted the hash and fruit cup. The person who took our order gave him something called the hash and hatch. Double the price of just the hash. Way to go slipping that up charge in. We asked for two large coffees. We each were given over sized mugs half filled. And a small single straw to stir it with. The coffee was Luke warm and bitter even with sugar added. No refills were offered which was just as well. The entire experience came in at around 45 dollars. If you are looking for decent food and coffee at a reasonable price, this is not it. The parking is too horrific to give this place a second chance. The service was dismal, the health standards of cleanliness and food temps were no way passing muster. And the price showed they thought way too highly of themselves. They need to up the game in quality first

This is an adorable Mom and Pop feeling, cozy cafe. You feel like you're walking back in time a little bit where things were simpler. You order at the counter and then sit down with your number. This is the second time I've been here and both times the food and service were the same, outstanding. I have to say, this is in fact my favorite biscuit and gravy of all time and the grits are in the running! The biscuit is soft, moist, thick, with crispy edges and the gravy is a sweet (from the onions I think) and salty, hearty, flavorful pork. There was a perfect amount of gravy to biscuit. The grits were creamy and thick. I savored every bite and made the dishwashers job easy. Make your breakfast prep easy by just going to Blue Line.

Great spot during the weekdays. Gets a little too crowded on the weekends for me. Food is delicious and the staff is helpful

I love blue line for a quick breakfast or lunch! The employees are always super friendly and it never disappoints. I haven't had anything crazy on the menu that I would definitely say you must try but I tend to get the breakfast panini a lot since the bread is very good on it. It's a nice ambiance and very clean inside. I'm not much of a coffee drinker so I can not say much about that but I have heard it's good! Also, every time I get the breakfast panini I can never finish it and I find it reheats very.

Came here to catch up with a friend. This place was perfect for that! First, the vibes were really homie and reminded me of a nice old fashioned diner. The staffs were friendly and greeted us with a smile and lots of good recommendations. I got the crab salad which tasted amazing and fresh. We also got the duck duck goose waffle to share. This one was not my favorite. I felt like it had a lot going on. Like it was sweet and savory but had too much components to it. Maybe getting the the stuff on the side would help. The tomato soup was creamy and great for a cool day or for a normal hot nola day. The service though was so quick. Overall great experience and would come back!

One of our favorite breakfast spots. We've been coming here for the last couple years. Service is consistent, food is always great, staff- absolutely amazing. Nice, calm atmosphere. Anytime we go, about half the crowd are regulars. My go-to is the blue line breakfast. Their salads, house dressing, mimosas, fresh squeezed grapefruit juice, and pancakes are also very good.

The single server on duty appeared to thrive on this super busy, packed Thursday morning. She was efficient, welcoming, friendly, caring and helpful, all while being pulled in many different directions! It's no wonder she managed all of this with the love and passion for food that comes out of the single brown door in the back. Truly a wonderful experience and expression of this area! The Duck, Duck Goose Waffle will not be forgotten. It will remain one of the most delicious and memorable breakfast entrees this fat man ever ate!

My name is Laney and I'm a Drug Rep who orders lunches for m doctors to keep working with them. On Wednesday April 3. I went online and looked up your catering menu and ordered from there. My total before taxes should have been $250.00 but when I got there it's was almost $400.00. That's a big difference. When I compared my receipt to your catering menu the prices were way off. I ordered the Farmers market salad, on the online catering menu it was $30 but I was charged $80, I also got 2 trays of the party tray sandwiches, cater menu said $80 and I was charged $90, 12 large cookies at $2 should have been $24 I was charged $36, 18 bags of chips should've been $36 but was charged $45. This was not a good experience.You need to correct your catering menu online because you are advertising false prices. I also picked up my order myself.

Ate Sunday breakfast here ten days ago before flying home. Busy, and seemingly full of regulars. Fresh squeezed orange juice - always appreciated. The corned beef hash is excellent; only my mom's is better. They are generous with the corned beef, very generous. I would come back in a second and I would get the oj, with eggs and corned beef hash, again. 9.2/10.

A real treat in Old Metairie. Wonderful breakfasts like home made breakfast treats but better!

Ok lemme start by saying we were passing through town and looking for a hole in the wall local restaurant with good food! Gold stars for both. We walk in, place our order st the counter, receive a number and shortly after we were treated to a tasty treat of slap yo mama good breakfast so good you'll need a blanket afterwards! My husband had the big boy breakfast with creamy grits (omg so good!) sausage, over medium eggs, and a really good pancake with fresh squeezed OJ and I had the Blue Line breakfast with decaf, potatoes, ham, scrambled eggs and a fluffy biscuit with some preserves like sauce that was delicious on top! I am so glad we found this place! It was fast and good and I could tell by the locals it is a favorite around the neighborhood and now it's one of ours! I do think they need a waitstaff to check on how's it going, refills, etc. I do believe the model of ordering & paying at the counter first was created to minimize the need for additional staff.. saves time for them.. I get it. I'm still giving Blue Line 5 stars because it was exactly what we wanted!!!

Recently returned to this restaurant after a long break due to unsatisfactory experiences. Delighted with the quality of food and service. Just had the plain breakfast with bacon, eggs, toast, and fruit. Everything was delicious and well done. Excellent service also. There were a lot of customers so the place must be improving. Nice local breakfast and lunch place.

Priscilla R.

Yelp
This place gets BUSY! If you have time to wait on a busy day then go for it because the food is good. I have gotten breakfast and lunch before and everything was tasty. Insider tip -- if you sit at the counter you can order from there without having to wait in line to order before you grab a table. Parking can get a little iffy since its right on Metairie Rd so my suggestion is trying going at an off time so that you can park and get a seat! Iced coffee was okay and bloody marys are strong! The staff is friendly and you can tell they deal with large crowds so they know how to handle it.

The food was so good - the grits are yummy! Great prices and atmosphere! Nice little place

The food is delicious when it's on, however, I find that the food and service are inconsistent. Been here 100+ times and continue to go back for the breakfast. Best pancakes, waffles, eggs, bacon, biscuits, etc. in town. The problem is that it's a little hectic to order (they really need two checkout counters) and food can take a long time depending on the crowd size in the restaurant. We've waited an hour for food before and that was after standing in line to order. They seemed to be telling other customers that the food wait is an hour, but we did not get that memo. They offered a round of drinks as a comp when I questioned them, which was a nice gesture. They do many to-go orders here. While waiting I noticed at least 7 other to go orders with many waiting to pick up--it could be a little more efficient. Even though they can move slow, all the wait staff are friendly and accommodating--especially Brandy, and if they are on their A-game the food is delicious.

Well this was a pleasant find for a quick breakfast just outside of New Orleans. I like the setup of ordering at the counter, you take a number and someone brings your food - no waiter service so no worrying about a tip. The food came out really fast for our table of four. We ordered: - biscuits: huge, Light and fluffy! They come with homemade jam which is super yum. - power breakfast was the healthy option and included perfectly scrambled egg whites and super fresh slices of avocado and tomatoes. -Cuban Panini a generous portion of folded eggs and earth-killing meat. - scrambled eggs with cheesy grits. Grits were amazing per friends. I was impressed they have plant based milk option like oat milk, so I ordered coffee. The only reason I couldn't go with 5 stars is the coffee was not good.

I have never had a bad experience at blue line! They always have such incredible customer service and I crave a blue line biscuit. Love the small feel of the place as well!

Blue Line is a lovely hidden gem in old Metairie. From large salads to sandwiches and breakfast all day, there is something for everyone. Everything is flavorful, delicious, and made fresh with solid portions. And the chef makes different off-menu specials. This week there's turtle soup and a lobster roll on Dong Phuong bread. Did I mention the owner used to be a chef at Commanders? They also have delicious coffee (their iced coffee is my favorite in the city) There's a full bar with in house Bloody Mary mixes, mimosas, and fresh squeezed juices. Service is top notch! The baristas are friendly, personable, and treat you like a VIP. There's a reason why you can find so many regulars there, bc it feels like home. It's a laid back atmosphere that keeps you coming back for more.

Food was Great! Service was great! Very busy! Don't get a table till after you order!

Food is good. Restaurant is filthy. The servers and counter person are not hospitable at all. I ordered a cup of tea and the person took the uncovered tea bag out of the jar with her uncovered hands. This is also the person that handles cash and credit cards. Definitely not what it used to be

Kevin R.

Yelp
Took my girls there. The service is good. We ate at the bar, so you get full service. The food was terrific. The coffee, the omelette and biscuits and gravy were all done terrific.

Hayden B.

Yelp
The food is incredible, but they consistently and constantly get orders wrong, serve incorrect and missing food items whether in person or delivery. You want a sandwich, a side, and a salad with 3 drinks? You'll be getting a salad and a drink. Sorry, the kitchen staff do not care enough to count correctly, or perhaps even have the ability determine the difference between a Cuban sandwich and a side of grits, even if the food they prepare is tasty. I have been pleased with what I was able to eat, but I've never gotten an order correct the first time and when I choose delivery, I just have hope the sides are enough because they will forget the main course 8 times out of 10.

Ray S.

Yelp
We had the blue line breakfast, breakfast burrito and a side of biscuits and gravy. All were good portions and tasted good. Restaurant was full of folks. Only thing that was not good were the coffee and tea both seemed weak, or we would have rated more stars.

Dimitri R.

Yelp
Great service, great food, and cozy environment. The prices have definitely gone up over the years but if you have around $20-25 bucks to spend on a great breakfast this is the spot. It doesn't get much better than the duck duck goose waffle but I've really never been disappointed here.

Yelp
Hadn't been to Blue Line in a while and ended up going twice in one week because we enjoyed it so much. The portions are large so we split. First time the homemade corned beef hash and the second was the pork topped with egg and red eye gravy. Both had cute names but I can't remember so check the menu. The service was excellent, pricing good and I'd go back every day if my waistline could afford it !

Such a gem! I've been wanting to try Blue Line Sandwhich for YEARS and I finally did. Best decision. It's a small establishment so it definitely fills up quick, but because the service is soooo freaking fast you will not have to wait! The restaurant was packed, we walked in placed our order, sat down and was served in 5 minutes. The food was hot, fresh and flavorful. The portions were huge and the prices were super affordable and well priced. The pancakes were so yummy butter was not needed. The grits were the best grits I've had at a restaurant. I mean just perfect! I can't wait to go back!

The staff is always friendly, and I am always amazed how they get the crowds in an out so quickly. Also has a great chicken sandwich for lunch, but the breakfast is the reason I go there the most.

Best breakfast in town ( this review includes New Orleans and Metairie). And the staff is always great!

Imran S.

We have been to Blue Line before and we go back because they consistently provide a good lunch. The flavors are good, the portions are large, and the service is good. We ordered the Thai salad with grilled chicken, quinoa, edamame, avacado, and carrots as well as grilled cheese and tomato soup -- both were very tasty with good flavors

I decided that I deserved a biscuit early Sunday morning after running around and taking care of some business for my family. I consulted my app to see who was open at 8am and had good biscuits. So I ended up at Blue Line. So early on a Sunday there was plenty of seating choices but since I was alone, I sat at the bar. Order at the counter and boom my food was out quick-quick. I ordered the blue line breakfast with grits and a biscuit. They allowed me to sub avocado for the meat. (See my pic). Staff was super friendly. Food was good and way too much so I took some home. Biscuit was just what I needed and their homemade jam was yummy.

Great sandwiches and vibe here. Loved seeing the owner's kids working, this is a true family business!

Cute place in nice neighborhood of NOLA. Lots of healthy and tasty choices. Understand the chef smokes his own meats. Definitely will be back

Nicole M.

Yelp
Great breakfast spot in Old Metairie! The scrambled eggs with cheese, potatoes, and crispy bacon were delicious (added on avocado as a side and it was very fresh!) Their iced coffee (French Truck, I believe) was also really good. They offered 6 different types of milk options, too. I ordered and paid for my to-go order online, but after seeing the cute interior, would definitely eat-in next time.

Alyssa M.

Yelp
Blue Line is one of the best breakfast spots in the country. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu- pancakes, waffles and of course - the 'Blue Line Breakfast' is classic go to with scrambled eggs, biscuit, bacon, sausage, etc! Excellent quality with every customer- they also support local coffee company 'French Truck', so - iced or hot, its always fresh and hits the spot. They also have a 'Southern Blend' unsweetened iced tea produced - a perfect pairing with any of their lunch sandwiches, 'Cuban with Fries' or 'Turkey and Alfalfa Sprout sandwich' - nobody leaves Blue Line unsatisfied!

Wanda C.

Yelp
Upon arrival we stood in line for 20-30 mins to order food. While I stood in line my husband went to sit at a table & a waitress made him get up & stand in line with me- she was very rude! There were flies everywhere. Food was bland. The worst was any time you needed a refill on anything you had to get up, stand in line, wait for it to be made then return to ur table- this took at least 20 mins at minimum. Will not be back -so disappointed

Cassie K.

Yelp
I visit New Orleans every couple of months and this is my number one favorite spot for breakfast! I always get their waffles with berries or the duck waffle, and fresh squeezed orange juice. Every time I come I always leave satisfied. They give perfect portions to their plates and their customer service is A1. Super friendly staff, warm and welcoming interior, and AMAZING breakfast food!!! If I could I'd come here for breakfast every single day. I'm always excited to come back when I visit and tell my friends in San Francisco if they ever visit the area to head to Blueline Sandwich Co for the best waffles and fresh squeezed OJ. Thanks to the awesome staff here! 10/10 recommend.

I had lunch at Blue Line today with my mom, and this is how it went: Parking is a little tough, as they are located on Metairie Road, and you park angled, in front of the restaurant, which is in a long building filled with a few restaurants and other establishments. Pulling in is fine, it's the backing out that is a little tricky when it's time to go. So this is a cute, brightly lit, clean restaurant, named after a streetcar line that unbeknownst to me, used to run right along Metairie Road. Very cool history. You order at the counter from a menu that's on the wall behind the register. Everything looked delicious, but since I had to pick just one thing - I hate that about meals - I went with the brussels sprouts salad. Excellent choice! The brussels sprouts were amazing! the salad was full of good stuff like beets, bacon, blue cheese and kale. It was so tasty! My mom had the King Louie Crab salad and was not disappointed, and she is so hard to please! I don't think she complained about any part of her salad. That's probably some sort of record for her. I had a taste of the remoulade dressing and loved it. I kept my fork to myself aside from a taste of dressing, because my mom looked intent on keeping that gem to herself. Seriously though, she offered me a taste, but I was chowing down on mine, so I declined. The ordering process was easy, prices were decent, the food was delivered to our table within a reasonable amount of time, and the atmosphere was laid back. This seems to be a great place to have lunch with a friend or a really great mom.

Hole in the wall in old Metry! Really good food, something for everyone on their menu- they have gluten free bread you can substitute which was great for my gluten senstive Grandma! Word to the wise for the ADA community, very small triangular shaped bathroom, was a bit hard to navigate with a wheelchair- but possible. Bit hot in here as well. Counter service only.

Blue Line's the best breakfast in Old Metairie, but the real star of the show is Brandi. The best. Incredible service, and A+1 grapefruit juice. Moving down the street has been the greatest thing ever.

I've been to blue line sandwich so many times, and it's very good! The service is great and so is the location. I usually get the grilled cheese with tomato soup, and it's sooo good! It comes with a small side salad, and the grilled cheese also has some caramelized onions. The sandwich is pretty big, so you'll probably have some leftovers

Jeff R.

Yelp
This was one of the best meals my wife and I have ever had! Everything is farm to table, the cure all of their own meats! From the duck pastrami to the homemade corn beef... It was truly one of the best restaurant experiences we have ever had! Diners drive-ins and dives is missing out on this place! This is our first of many trips to this wonderful place! No matter how far you live, it's worth a trip!

Always delicious food ! Pretty fast ,worth any waiting time ! Polite people in all positions .

The following is based on service only. I walk in today and encounter problem number one. No one is in the front to greet you or bring you to a table. I see only three people sitting at various tables yet I stand there for about two minutes. I decided to just find an open table and wait for service there. I sat for 10 minutes and kept looking around to see if anyone would come out. Well after all that time someone did come out and stood behind the the bar like counter, she was busy swiping on her phone. I guess business must be good.

Great food. Cheesesteak was absolutely the best I have ever had a spicy kick that it was a real treat.

Marcia W.

Yelp
Yummy yum! The chicken BLt with fresh farm to table ingredients along with sweet bacon jam and brioche bun. Sat at the bar with a nice tv. Service was on point - got a our drinks in timely fashion. Since everything is made fresh, expect to wait a little for your food- but this just gives you time to spend with your family and friends chatting. Of course it's busy cause the food is right on point. Breakfast and lunch you can't go wrong. Chef Brad did it right!

Excellent fresh food- service is top- neighborhood kid friendly- reasonably priced! Hope you enjoy!

Some sandwiches are so good, that you take a bite, and before you can even swallow, you have to announce with a mouth full, "Wowwwwwww" : : The St. Patty's Day Massacre from @bluelinesandwichco is an amazing remix to a classic Rueben, and it certainly made me have the aforementioned reaction. : : It's piled high with house-made corned beef that takes two weeks to make and a duck pastrami that is also made in house with duck breasts. And all that goodness is smashed together between incredible marble rye bread from a local bakery. : : They also make some more minor substitutions that create an extraordinary flavor. Beer-braised (Canebrake) cabbage for sauerkraut. Rémoulade aioli for Russian dressing. : : This sandwich is a must try! Hope you enjoy.

Really love this comfy casual eggs plus lots of other stuff place. The servers are a delight. Coffee is excellent. Just wish they would clean up the front window - they always look closed!
