NOLA establishment that has been around for a very long time. Known for his Po'boy sandwichs and open 24 hours.Has a good selection of Daiquiri flavors and can get an extra shot in them.A good selection of breakfast items if you are up very late or very early.

The food is not consistent and does not always taste good. The employees who served me are unprofessional. One girl gave my order to the woman in front of me and then played on her phone; no one asked me why I was waiting in front of them and I had to say something. The girl who gave my order away didn't apologize or remake it, she asked another worker to do it as she continued to play on her phone and then they forgot my Mac and cheese which was too salty.

I tried the shrimp and grits and I must be honest and say it was a disappointment. The shrimp shells was the first turnoff and the flavor was not what is expected with this staple dish. I was expecting perfection as I was informed of the quality of the food. The service was quality and the atmosphere is great. The greens were not of quality and Macaroni was dried out.

This spot is great for late-night food and drinks. We stumbled upon it and had some great food. We both ordered po'boys. The drinks were great as well. Come here if you arrive late and need something to get your vacation started.

My wife and I visited this place on our Honeymoon to New Orleans. It was fantastic! They have a hot food table which we didn’t order from but it looked good! I got a Poboy and she got the Chicken Tenders. Great service very friendly we would definately go back!

The food was great and the staff was so friendly. Ordering was super simple because you could either order on an iPad or talk to a person. There was a book fair going on at the time I was there and I got an autographed copy of the book

I was doing laundry next door, and noticed this place was constantly busy and had great reviews, so I decided to stop and grab something for dinner. I ordered the red beans and rice w/ smoked sausage, and some of mac and cheese, cornbread, a root beer and cheesecake. The food was delicious! The ambiance and wall decor leaves a lot to browse at while you wait for your order. The staff is pleasant seems to enjoy the banter back and forth with the customers. The prices for the food are very reasonable for the area. I'll certainly come back for more.
