The food was decent but our waitress disappeared for a while and we felt like we were being held hostage haha! We were placing bets on if she was out back smoking! Smokers get all the breaks in the service industry. It's not fair honestly.

I definitely recommend the corn and crab soup and salad with Italian dressing, both were delicious! The others in our group ordered hamburger steaks, they all gave it a 10 and said they would definitely order it again. The service was ok, but something they can work on.

Small town Cafe that reminds you of your grandma's cooking. The portions are filling and the taste is perfect. My Grandmother passed in 1976, and doesn't enter my thoughts as often as she should, but this cafe had me thinking of her. Try the Chicken and Sausage Gumbo.

The food has been really good every time we go. The stuffed pork chops were really great, the onion rings were big and awesome, and the burgers were great too. We got the wegeaux burger once and it was giant.

We're in from out of state & staying on the NShore. We met up with 2 from E Bank & 2 from W Bank, (6 total) Good B'fast for all...my 1st time trying B'fast! We like WGxC so much, that after visiting with family, B4 heading to the NShore, we went back for supper! 2 bowls of Gumbo (chicken & seafood) served with potato salad & french bread...we also shared small onion rings. All was very good! Service also great! We highly recommend! I turned my friend from E Bank on to WGxC a couple of yrs ago & she stops in often when on the W Bank! Some of the best places to eat, in my opinion, are the smaller, low key places like WeGeaux Cafe...keep it up!!!

Great local dive to go to with superfriendly staff and great freshly cooked food. Whenever we're in this area we make a point to stop there whether it's for breakfast or lunch.

Don't let the look of this place place deter you.... the food is amazing! There's only a couple of waitresses so the service can be slow at times but bear with then bc the foods are on point. And the amount of food you get is a blessing love this place!

Stopped in for a quick lunch during a work trip through Westwego. Delicious food and great service. Hole in the walls never disappoint! Fried shrimp was great, but the macaroni and cheese was my favorite!
