    Chicken gumbo
    Angel P.

    Don't judge the food by the appearance of the place. The food and service was great. The chicken gumbo, my God, so good,flavorful and full of meat and spices. Also, had a shrimp po-boy with the works. Tasty and full of shrimp. French Bread was toasted just right.

    I had just finished visiting the aquarium and was figuring out where to eat. I decided to give the food court a try at Canal Place. The food court is on the third floor. I found Centre Deli and gave it a try. Being Canadian, the curious and cool spelling of the business caught my attention. I liked the look of this place in the middle of the afternoon. You had the option of getting hot or cold items. Since it was hot and humid outside, I went with a sandwich instead of a hot dish. Considering that the shrimp po boy that I had at a different establishment wasn't all that great, I gave it a try here. One word: redemption! The shrimp po boy here was outstanding. Flavourful, yummy shrimp in a bun that was perfect. So good! Sometimes, you find gems at a food court. Centre Deli is one of them. I would come back here in a heartbeat. (34)

    I love the Centre Deli. Located on the 3rd floor in Canal Place, Centre Deli is a solid lunch option if you are in the area. My office is very nearby, and this is my go-to spot, especially when I am in a hurry; as the service is always quick. The deli is actually 2 delis in one. The left side is the hot foot bar. They feature a plethora of local comfort foods such as baked chicken, fried chicken, baked fish, baked salmon, fried fish, meatloaf, stuffed bell peppers, lasagna and a variety of vegetables. My favorite is the baked chicken, as the pieces are HUGE. I always get the steamed veggies which consist of a blend of cabbage, broccoli and carrots. However, I've had the fried fish, the salmon and the gumbo and have never been disappointed. I don't know her name, but there is a wonderfully nice hispanic lady who always works the hot line and enthusiastically greets her regular customers. The right side of the deli is for sandwiches. Their hot sausage po-boy is my favorite in the city. Yeah you heard me right when I said that my favorite hot sausage po-boy comes from a deli in a mall's food court. They have NEVER overcooked and dried out the patty style sausage, and it is always dripping with fatty flavorful goodness' and the french bread is always fresh. If you are in the area around lunchtime, give this place a try. It will forever change your viewpoint on food court food. They damn sure made a believer out of me.

    ***As of 6/4/15, Centre Deli is NOT closed!*** I wouldn't go out of my way to go here, but if you're like me and work in Canal Place, you don't have a whole lot of options in the building. The ladies that run the deli are quick and efficient and very sweet. The hot foods are very good and I've had some really good meals here under $10 including salmon, fried chicken, and lasagna. I am more likely grab a small hot sausage po-boy and fries for about $7 or if I am having a bad day I splurge with a grilled cheese with bacon. The deli also has breakfast items like bagel and croissant sandwiches, grits and eggs.

Turkey and the Wolf are located inside of the Venetian and even if you are not staying here, it is well worth the side trip. Come hungry, leave happy.

    Turkey and the Wolf came highly recommended by a friend and it did not disappoint!…read more We arrived around 11:45am on Friday afternoon and there was no wait. However, I know wait times can be out the door so plan accordingly. We were dropped off by Uber, but in terms of parking, it's mainly street parking. Overall, the shop is pretty small. They have a handful of tables outside and more seating inside but it's not huge -- hence the longer lines. It's also quite eclectic with serving on plastic McDonald's plates and the music that was playing. We ordered: The ham sandwich, wedge salad, and a delicious pickle cocktail The ham sandwich had excellent flavor! I wish it had a but more ham on it, but overall the flavor was 10/10! The wedge salad had too much salad dressing. I LOVE blue cheese and blue cheese salad dressing but the lettuce to dressing ratio was off. Could have used less as I felt so much went to waste. The thick cut bacon on the salad was the exact salty touch it needed and the fresh dill was such a fresh touch. The pickle cocktail was delicious! I wish I would have ordered another one! It was slightly sweet, but also salty... SO good! Overall, I would highly recommend Turkey and the Wolf and totally stop by again if I were visiting New Orleans in the future.

    The Poboy here is to die for!…read more Honestly I was a bit intimidated walking through here alone, going past a rowdy crowd of mainly older white Gen X men to end up in this hole of a wall to order through an even smaller hole in the wall service booth. The ordering experience was a bit gruff and rough around the edges, but from then on, everything went right. First, you can hang out in the bar area at Erin Rose (I swear the crowd was friendlier than they looked) and eat there if there's space. I highly recommend their Paradise Peach, which seems to be from a local brewery. The bright, peach flavor of the lager does well to wash down the sandwich in the summer heat. I went with an order of the Braised Beef Debris Poboy and this is hands down not just the best Poboy I've ever had in my life, but the best beef or steak any sandwich I've ever had in my life! I wolfed it down so quickly and have to say the pickled green bean and banana peppers with that spike of horseradish sauce really sent this Poboy soaring! The braised beef was absolutely perfect and tender, amazingly so! I can get a bit picky about beef because I hate it when it's tough or gristly or has too much fatty parts that won't melt down, but I didn't have a problem with any of that. I'm no butcher, but seemed like they used a good part of the beef of what's already a fairly quality cow (Louisiana Wagyu Beef I recall reading) or maybe it was the whole braising process, but I wish I could have this for days! I'm going to be sad going back to Houston and not being able to eat this, but hopefully it'll still be around and just as amazing next time I'm back in town.

    Visiting from PA over the 4th of July we stumbled onto Killer Poboys by accident while hanging out…read moreat Erin Rose, and what a surprise. After a couple of beers, we noticed the little po'boy counter tucked in the back and figured we'd give it a shot. Best decision of the day. The sandwich was packed with flavor, served fresh, and exactly what you want after spending some time at a great New Orleans dive bar. I love finding places like this, no hype, no gimmicks, just really good food hidden where you'd least expect it. If you're grabbing a drink at Erin Rose, do yourself a favor and don't leave without ordering a po'boy. You'll thank yourself later.

    If you are reading this, which of course I know you are, BE PREPARED FOR A LONG WAIT! If you read…read morethe whole review I'll give you the best tip on how to skip the line (insert shushing emoji) and don't cheat by skipping to the end! Hands down, the best po'boys in all of NOLA. Everything is made from scratch (except the bread, which they source locally), and you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. My personal favorites are the Surf & Turf and the James Brown. The Surf & Turf gives you get the best of both worlds (shout out to Hannah Montana). Look it up kids. You get the slow-cooked roast beef with gravy plus fresh Gulf shrimp. Shut the front door! The James Brown is just as incredible: juicy BBQ beef, pepper jack cheese, fried shrimp, and a hot sauce mayo. Bring napkins - you'll need them. Pro tip: go with a group and order a few different po'boys to share. You'll want to try everything. You made it to the end, so here we go. I feel like gate keeping (look it up old-timers), but I'm going to be generous because I love y'all. In order to skip the line, go to the bar area and find a high top or seat at the bar. A seat always opens up quickly. It never fails. You can order from the bartender and the service is top notch. Cheers y'all!

The cheese fries are a sad shame. It's just melted cheddar that immediately solidifies on regular fries and gets super greasy. The fried pickles were good. The grilled chicken poor boy wasn't it - it was bland. The gumbo was good but quite watery - not many ingredients. Very little rice. Not pictured - the cole slaw was really bland. The potato salad was the best one. Husband enjoyed the fried shrimp. The roast beef tasted like cat food - terrible texture. The merch is super overpriced ($25 for a dog toy? Out of a vending machine!) The bathrooms were air conditioned and clean.
