Jazzin’ Up Algiers

Are you a jazz fan looking for a new dining spot on the West Bank of New Orleans?  Look no further than right here in Algiers and check out The Suite Jazz Cafe, a jazz and supper club offering dinner and Sunday brunches.

I had the chance to drop in and visit with the owner last week and check it out at the end of the brunch.  With a glass of the best sweet tea I’ve ever had right in front of me, Dr. Camacia Ross (an Algiers resident, she’s also running for a position on the school board) allowed me to take a few photos to share with you.

The brunch menu changes each Sunday, but it is built around “home cooking”.  The fried catfish I saw on a few plates looked delicious!  There is a full bar, with happy hour on weekday evenings and live music on Friday and Saturday and during the Sunday brunch.  Dr. Ross shared that they are hoping to open with lunch specials soon, which would be a welcome addition to the local dining scene.

UPDATE:  The Suite is now open for lunch from 11 am to 3 pm, Monday through Friday.

Just another way to stay local….

The Suite Jazz Cafe is located at 3580 Holiday Drive in Algiers, right off of General de Gaulle in the new strip center next to Rouse’s.  Gift certificates are available…I hope my clients like theirs!
