From our first meal here, my wife and I have sincerely enjoyed dining at Touch of Italy. Their breakfast and lunch/dinner options are both varied and delicious. The portions you get are nothing to scoff at. The last visit had us enjoying Eggs Sardou and the Shrimp & Grits. The grits are flavorful and velvety accompanied by plump fresh shrimp in a hearty gravy/sauce. The Eggs Sardou has a perfectly poached egg with spinach sauce nested on a delicious English muffin and slice of ham accompanied by their grits. Definitely a place to experience regularly!

This spot was recommended by our neighbors for a great breakfast, so we decided to try it. They bragged on the grits, so we definitely had to try them.

This is a quaint little place in Slidell that we went to for breakfast on our visit to New Orleans. The food was absolutely great and the prices were fantastic. We liked it so much that we stopped a second time on the way out of town. I highly recommend the “Diet Plate” which has absolutely nothing to do with dieting btw, the eggs Benedict and the grits were some of the best I’ve had!!!

This place is a small local restaurant and you had best come here because it is simply some of the best food you will ever eat. Also, the waiter that we had was so awesome, friendly and he and the rest go above and beyond to make sure you have a good experience. I will be back very soon!!

Always a delicious experience. This small, warm & inviting locally owned restaurant is an Olde Town Slidell favorite. Get “The Diet” if you’re hungry or a breakfast sandwich on croissant with a side of “bobo” potatoes. You won’t be disappointed!

Very quaint, cozy restaurant with a wonderful ambiance. Kids had the lasagna and I had the Alfredo with the shrimp and crab cake. The side salad was delicious! It was all good. Our waiter was very attentive and had a very nice demeanor. We will stop for a bite for lunch again!

Love this place for breakfast and just discovered they do dinner Thursday thru Saturday even though website says differently. Small and quaint. Spinach artichoke app was very good. Chips have to be made in house as they were excellent for the app. The salads that came with the meal were simple and good, but the fresh croutons made the salad. My veal marsala was very good with fork tender veal. My guest requested a sauce for her dish she had years ago and the chef said he could do that even though it wasn’t on the current menu. My guest raved about her sauce Alyssa. Only reason for 4 stars rather than 5 of lack of a wine list to go with the quality food. They have wine, just not a list and selections. We will return for dinner.
