So what is a Po-Boy sandwich? According the Webster's Dictionary: A po' boy (also po-boy, po boy, or poor boy) is a traditional submarine sandwich from Louisiana. It almost always consists of meat, usually roast beef, or fried seafood. The meat is served on baguette-like New Orleans French bread, known for its crisp crust and fluffy center.
Off we went looking for this place. I gotta admit, they are nestled in the corner of questionable plaza. The parking lot itself is kind of ghetto because there are speed bumps that not clearly marked and the lines for the parking spaces are faded. Now I would never not check a place out just because of the area its in but to keep it real, I would not recommend coming here at night.
As we enter, we are warmly greeted by D'nis, who was also our assigned server. Right away I can tell the service was gonna be good. She got our drink orders while we went over the menu. Before we ordered, a lady by the name of Gwen introduced herself to us as the owner and thanked us for coming in before she went out the front door. The menu is simple. They had an extensive assortment of po-boy sandwiches to choose from. You have two size options to choose from. Regular, which is a 9 inch, or Large, which is a foot long. All sandwiches come with cole slaw and home made cajun potato chips.
We decided to go with the Large Catfish Po-Boy, a side of Fried Okra, and for dessert, Beignet. At first we were gonna order two different regular sandwiches so we can try more than one flavor. Im kind of glad we didn't because we barely finished the large size. From the pic I took that was only half the sandwich. For sure I can verify what every review here is in agreement with. The bread itself is very good.
The Catfish was breaded in cornmeal mixed with cajun spices accompanied with mayo, pickles, and lettuce. The cajun chips were really good. I love how the spices they threw on the chips gives you that flavor kick with every crunchy bite. The Fried Okra was good. The Beignet was just average. Im not sure if its because of beignets I have had in the past was different, but the ones here did not strike my fancy.
Honorable mention goes out to Alligator Po-Boy. For you adventure seekers that have that inner Andrew Zimmern in you, go for it. I have tried alligator several times and I know for sure that its not my thing. If you have never tried it, find out for yourself if your taste buds like it.
The only negative I observed was that if you order soda, they bring it out as 12 oz cans. So basically, there are no free refills. You would have to pay for each individual drink. I can easily go through 3 cans. Of course water is always free.
Overall, the food and the service are pretty good in my book. The area and no refills not so much.
