Dots Diner - near Ochsner

Great Diner! Service is always wonderful and the epitome of Southern Hospitality. Coffee is good, they have a simple yet good menu with neat variations. Today I had a good cheeseburger while my friend had the B9, a breakfast combo with chicken fried steak, hash browns and eggs. The fries were delicious, crispy and just right on salt. I've been a few times before and Dot's has never disappointed. Very much a classic diner near New Orleans!

This place was really good. Quantity food. Very affordable. Around $12-13 for a plate full of meat, eggs, toast, and hashbrowns. Jefferson I believe was our server and she was so sweet and attentive. The whole atmosphere of the diner is retro and "blast from the past" but in a cool way. Will definitely be back.

Updated: I tried calling to place a to go order. No answer. I drove over and went in to order about 7:45am and only one young lady was working and they were very busy. Not answering the phone - understood and forgiven. She took my order within a few minutes and gave me about a 15 minute wait time. My food was ready around that time. I took the takeout home and dug in. I found a thick plastic string in my hashbrowns (see pictures). It wasn't a hair, a bug, or anything truly gross, so I removed it and ate my food. After eating I called and talked to Asst Mgr Kaitlyn. She kindly apologized, said she would notify the kitchen, and told me to ask for her if or when I return. I have all 5 stars for food, service, and atmosphere, but 4 stars for the general rating of the store because of the plastic string. I don't expect free food and not looking for a lawsuit. Without the plastic string, this would be a perfect all-around 5 star rating with no derogatory pictures attached. People make mistakes. Forgiven. But it still happened. Thanks for being kind Kaitlyn! EDIT: I've been back 6 times since without incident. I finally caught up with Kaitlyn, and she was very kind. I've updated my review to all 5 stars. If you're looking for a great diner with a "mom and pop" vibe/atmosphere, with great service and good food, then I highly recommend this location of Dot's Diner!

We just love Dot’s Diner - Near Ochsner. It is set up and looks like the wonderful old diners we used to frequent years ago. The decor is lively and fun with a friendly atmosphere and great table service. The menu is breakfast and lunch and they have a varied selection of both. The food is great and it’s a very pleasant overall experience.

First time to this location, and it seems more spacious than others. Nice and clean. And of course the food was great. I had the Who Dot burger, which I hadn't had in a long time. It did not disappoint! My wife wanted to try something different, so she got the Hamburger Steak! Well, different from what she normally gets at a Dot's anyway. She loved it! Afterwards we tried their cobbler au la mode. The blackberry was great! The Peach was ok but had a slight funny taste like crawfish?. But other than that, we enjoy this place.

Absolutely loved this diner! Service on point! My cup was never empty! Coffee was very good! I had the biggest omlette ever! Would definitely visit again! Food came out hot and quick. Place gets packed so show up early.

Cute 50's dining experience. Friendly staff. Okay füd ... Different take on the roast beef poboy

This? Now THIS is a diner. Hands down, 5 star service and 50 star food. Really glad I decided on Dots Diner for breakfast from all the other options. Didn’t want generic Waffle House while in New Orleans, didn’t want to risk going to a diner with possibly rough service, chose this based on the reviews and they did not disappoint!
