Took my back to living in Biloxi as a kid. Roast beef poboy was loaded up with tender beef, dripping with juice! Huge portion for the price I was so stuffed I could barely finish it, but had to because it was that good. Oh yeah almost forgot the boudin balls they were fried fresh and AMAZING.Robert was so nice and kind to us even though we came in late, and it was such a cool experience to get to hear from him about the shop and how he came to own it. Thanks again!If you are anywhere near here please drive over and stop in, you won't regret it. I am so thankful we found it! Will be back to visit in 2026!!!

Stopped by Radosta's because I was looking for a great place to eat in Metairie. Google reviews never fail me. This place was very good. Very laid back atmosphere. Told me, if you are eating here, just eat and pay before you leave. I didn't even have a ticket, they just asked my name at the register. Onion rings were fabulous. Fried to perfection. I had the homemade meatball sub with provolone. They made it just how I like it, not dripping with sauce. It was just the right amount of sauce to meatball ratio. Not soggy at all. I will visit again and try the oyster poboy next..

Delicious shrimp po’boy! The 7” was plenty big enough. Very nice people here, too.

Have been here three times since moving nearby. You might think that the third time would be the charm, but it's 3 strikes you're out. Food has been uniformly bad. The French bread they use is like rubber and is not toasted before making the sandwiches. Today I placed a pick up order and was told that it would be ready by 1:00 PM. We ordered two of their roast beef poor boys that they claim as their "house specialty". I arrived at the restaurant at 1:05 to find out that my order hadn't been placed yet and had to wait 30 minutes. I had placed the order through Door Dash for pick up and it seems no one had confirmed the order. How long does it take to put roast beef and gravy on French bread? Once again the bread was too rubbery to chew and the beef was cut with the grain, making it stringy and tough. There was little gravy on the sandwich and it was tasteless. The beef was barely warm. Not very impressive for a "signature item". I know this place has changed ownership a while back. It seems that current ownership is content to coast on their previous reputation without doing anything to maintain quality and consistency. Needless to say, I won't be back.

I stopped in one day and got my food to go. There was no one else in the place the entire time aside from the cook and cashier. I ordered a meal that had fish with a white sauce, possibly topped with crab (not much) & I can't remember if it was a special or if it was on the menu. The flavor was exceptionally bland and even adding salt wasn't like it made the taste any different or better. I was really looking forward to the bread pudding but didn't even eat most of it because of how much I didn't like it. This place just didn't do it for me with the way everything was tasting unfortunately. I feel like this place probably caters to a crowd of an older generation and what they have been accustomed to for the majority of their lives. There's nothing wrong with classic things but I personally feel like maybe that's why I didn't enjoy the taste of everything.

Great poboys. Homemade sausage was so good. Our only complaint was the bread was very hard on the outside and actually cut our mouths. We're used to Gambinos bread which is much softer. Just a little hard to chew. Cool place though and love supporting local business

Husband and friends were racing at NOLA Motorsports Park and we wanted something besides fastfood for lunch. Radosta's was fantastic. Truly great po'boys (we liked the shrimp and roast beef the best) plus great boudin and okra. We keep a list of places worth going back to when we travel, and Radosta's is on it twice! Thank you for a delicious hot lunch on a cold, wet day.

My Co workers and I ordered at 12:35 and sat down at a table. I waited 40 minutes for a sandwich while everyone else at my table and at other tables got their food and finished. When I told the waitress to cancel my order she assured me that the chicken was on coming off the grill and my order will be right out. Well, she still bought it 10 more orders before mine. She didn't even offer an apology. Mind you, I'm the only black person in there. I told the other waiter about it and he told me the manager said he or she didn't have time to come out and talk to me. I won't be going back!Update: You don't get to tell me my experience at your restaurant. Nothing was exaggerated! I was the only black person in there and was last to get my food AFTER my party was done eating! People that came in after me got their food before me. I know your cameras caught that. It shouldn't have been about race, but that's how it made me feel. PS your waitress never apologized, only the nice guy at the register. Thank you!

Late lunch...second time and brought son along cause we thought we had found a real neighborhood gem. Second time sucked: red beans had been nuked and the home made hot sausage was inedible. Burnt and the spices were so over the top that I could not finish even one patty. The fellow had bragged about how good it was but we left thinking never again. Worst is son did not even try more than a few bites. Wish I had asked for a discount. Not sure how they have the good reviews. So many other places to eat.

Great little neighborhood spot that you kinda have to know about to find...Well, now you do, so what are you waiting for? It looks like a grocery that served poboys that morphed into a poboy shop that has a grocery aisle :)Solid roast beef and other deli poboys. Casual feeling, like you're eating with family.Parking: Literally a corner store in a residential area, so parking can be iffy at times; at really busy times, you may have to park down the block and walk. It's worth the effort.
