Rita Mae’s comes recommended up, down and around the bayou. This little cottage near the Hwy 90 overpass serves up comfort food like grandma used to make, but maybe just a little bit better. Come for omelets in the morning, or juicy burgers, po’boys, fried chicken, and red beans and rice later in the day.
