I went for the first time the other day and got a fried grouper po'boy with fries. It was fantastic! The small 6" was more than enough for me - I could barely finish it (but I did - LOL!). I love the unique "flat fries"! They are so crispy (not hard) and seasoned perfectly. The sandwich was delicious as well. I just wish I had asked for extra remoulade sauce (to go). And the nice lady taking orders was very nice and courteous. Can't wait to go back!

Every time I go here, I stick with one of their po’ boys with a small side of the fries because the portions are fantastic. I’ve only had the Vegetarian Mushroom and Andouille Sausage Po’ Boys thus far, and their po’ boys are some of the best sandwiches out there. Plus, they have THE best fries I’ve ever had, hands down. Not to mention, absolutely get a slice of the Bourbon-Glazed Bread Pudding - it’s so warm, gooey, and comforting for the soul. Their remoulade is fantastic as well. The wait for a table/menu/food is a bit slow on busy days but truly because they’re always so swamped - it’s totally understandable! Would recommend coming here to anyone!

OMG...Ahhhhmazing! The king oyster PoBoy is a vegetarian dream! Perfectly seasoned and fried. Dad equally enjoyed the Debris PoBoy (recommended by an ER doc, believe or not). And I do NOT like bread pudding but same dic also recommended the bourbon bread pudding. Absolutely mind-blowing. I will definitely return. And lots of people came in and went down to the bar, so I'll check that out too. Neat concept in a somewhat unlikely space.

They're now serving breakfast 7 days a week from 7-11AM in the upstairs original part of the shop. Had a delicious creole honey fried chicken biscuit with egg and cheese and a cup of Jittery Joe's coffee. Delicious. Next time I'm getting either a breakfast bowl or the Patton's sausage and egg and cheese biscuit and gonna try the beignets too.

This was our first time here and we like this spot because it has a nice neighborhood chill vibe. Our waitress was completely on point, she didn't rush us and was super informative and friendly. Prices are fair and I liked my poboy (half shrimp half catfish) and his fries were great! The gumbo was pretty good but we thought it needed a little salt. We both will return to play darts or shoot pool and maybe drink from the shooter/shot menu $4 or $5😜! The only disappointment was the little burger, (Peyton did say it was small🤷🏽‍♀️)
