Loved this spot! Best beignet I’ve ever had. Great Louisiana café. Loved the sausage and grits. My wife and I both had a play on a Benedict that was phenomenal. Hers was made with artichoke carts and mine was on a baguette with shrimp. Very good.

One of our favorite places to get breakfast. Baignets are crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside, always made fresh. All their breakfast dishes are delicious - I love their benedicts. Very friendly service and nice atmosphere.

We went to have a birthday lunch and had a bunch of different items from the menu. The fried pickles were amazing. The server was super helpful and checked in with us throughout our lunch. I would highly recommend this place.

Best Cajun food I've had in California for sure. They're able to keep the flavors of New Orleans while using more elevated cooking techniques. To me this tasted like new Orleans but lighter. I feel like this was especially true of the beignet. It was very light and didn't taste too much of oil like some can. The staff was lovely and service was prompt and friendly. Definitely a home town vibe! My main course was the crab and eggs Benedict and it was really good. Eggs were perfectly cooked and the crab goes well with the hollandaise. Coffee came in a cup the size of my head.

Worked in LA and have had a lot of creole food and this is one of the best creole I have had on the West Coast. The cold smoked salmon Benedict was excellent. The blackened shrimp and grits was authentic as were the eggs Sandy. Definitely my go to NOLA brunch in the North Bay.

So good!!! We showed up with 8 people an hour before closing and the staff was so amazing, didn't bat an eye. We ate and were out within the hour. The beignets were fantastic and we were fighting over which of our po boys was the best. The staff was amazing!

We came to Healdsburg for the Saturday Farmer's Market. Healdsburg is known for great restaurants. So, we decided to give The Parish Café a try. It has a Louisiana and Cajun theme. It all starts with the Beignets. There's crayfish, shrimp, and grits. Even a Po'Boy breakfast sandwich. The potatoes were Cajun spice seasoned. Great quality and portions. We loved it!
