For a different twist on poboys, check this place out. They have a variety of nontraditional offerings, even a couple of vegetarian, which is tough to find in New Orleans. They also have different and interesting sides, like potato salad, and greens. It's a refreshing change from the standard poboy and fries, as much as I love those. I ordered the pork belly sandwich. For my taste it was a little too sweet, which I should've known from the description of the glaze. Even so, it was very tasty and a few drops of hot sauce helped a lot. I love the bread, which seemed different from the standard French loaf you get elsewhere. This roll is more like Bahn mi bread, with a nice crisp crust and a lighter airy interior. I really liked the greens, a nice touch of semi healthy, after all the super rich fried food I've been eating. The seasoning was nice and complicated. Again it was a little sweet for my taste, but again hot sauce helped a lot. This restaurant feels like some individual or group just had some good ideas and opened up a shop to do something a little different based in New Orleans cuisine. It's a great addition to the French Quarter. And the bathroom is really cool. But be gentle with the handle on the toilet.

A place that redefines the po'boy in the best possible way!! Such an incredible find in this little hole-in-the-wall spot. Note that their sandwiches are not the typical traditional poboys one may think of. The shrimp were cooked/seared perfectly--well-seasoned while still keeping that natural sweetness of fresh shrimp. The pickled veggies added great balance and even gave the sandwich a little bánh mì-like vibe! $14 for the sandwich. The setup inside is simple, nothing fancy, but that's exactly what makes it special. They offer a wide variety of offerings, including both meat and vegetarian options. Our server was warm and genuinely so kind! They didn't even give up an option to pay tips even though we were dining in. When we mentioned splitting a sandwich, he quietly brought over an additional tray without us even asking. Recently recommended by the Michelin Guide, and it absolutely makes sense. AND, we love that even with the recognition, it still stays true to what it is: a simple, authentic spot that puts every cent into the food!!

Once again Killer Po' boys KILLED it. My first meal in NOLA because I had this the last time I was there. Y'all. This po'boy is GOOD. So I'm VEGAN and always find some great food when I travel. It's EASY if you look. I found KPB back in 2022 and Y'ALL they still got it going on. To me you can make just about anything taste delicious if you know how to cook and properly season food. Well guess what they do. I'm sure ALL the po'boys are amazing but I can attest to the flavor of both the cauliflower, from this visit, and the sweet potato from my first visit. I love the flavors, the crispy bread and the hearty meal, packed with delicious veggies that it is!!! I ordered to go so I can't 100% attest to service, but when I picked up my order they were very friendly. Ambiance isn't much but it's not dirty and the food is great. I'm not there doe ambiance I want GOOD FOOD. And trust me, you won't be disappointed!!!

The food was absolutely amazing. We got the beef debris and the jerk chicken. It was sooo good. The restaurant was empty surprisingly and the service was really fast. The food was absolutely delicious and definitely worth going. 10/10 would go again.

Walking through the quarter looking for a good quick spot. Poboys on the brain. Stumbled on Killer Poboys located on Dauphine Street. Almost missed it. It's a little hole in the wall type of place. They have two locations. This is a small restaurant with a few tables inside. They do poboys with a bit of a twist. The gal at the counter was friendly and the food came out quick. We ordered two different poboys and shared. We tried the Pork belly poboy. The Pork belly poboy is pork belly in a Smoky brown sugar bbq sauce. It was so very good. The sauce was darn good and fit the pork belly perfectly. The shrimp poboy was nicely seasoned It has a spicy slaw of sorts with carrots that is to die for. Mind you when I say spicy I mean flavor filled not hot. From first bite to last so, So satisfying! The Bread is great! Holds up to toppings nicely. Not hard just a great package to hold the goodness inside. This place has vegetarian poboy options. Salads. And a twist. Casual, fast friendly service. I wish I lived close by. I think I'd be dropping in quite often.

From what I remember this was a solid sandwich, served at the exact right moment. I can be a prisoner of the moment and Killer Poboys turned a rough moment into a great and tasty memory! I drank too much, too fast, too early! It was crazy hot and I was loosing my bearings and about to loose the contents of my stomach. Luckily, I found my way here and had a wonderfully delicious roast beef po'boy at exactly the right time. I will definitely return to try more of the menu and show my gratitude for saving my night!!

This is the Killer Poboys location inside Erin Rose. Although the menu is slimmer than their full menu at their regular location, they have several fabulous options and you really can't beat pairing one of their po boys with the famous frozen Irish coffee at Erin Rose. We shared the braised beef debris po boy and the seared shrimp po boy and they were both excellent. Each one was truly unique, had fantastic toppings that perfectly complemented each one. Juicy, crunchy, sour, spicy, and of course the perfect squishy bread. Take me back! I want another...

Tasty Po Boy in the French quarter , we got the shrimp po boys. Sort of had a ban mi flavor to them. Bread was very lite, the carrot slaw was a little drippy. Get extra napkins PS it's in the back of the Erin Rose bar.

Best Po'boys! My sister and I were on a quest and scoured the internet for suggestions. We went to a couple places and they were good, but Killer Poboys was incredible. The pork belly was flavorful, tender, and melted in my mouth. The shrimp with its bahn mi'ish flavors was the best shrimp po'boy I've ever tasted. Their bread was so much better tasting too. We're going to try their newer location too, the one that isn't in the back of the Erin Rose bar (which played awesome music btw).

* A lot of locals recommended this place to myself and my friends, so it's pretty popular * The Poboys are interesting with a Vietnamese influence. Overall, didn't compare to bahn mis or Vietnamese food coming from the Bay Area so I was a bit disappointed. I had wish I tried the sweet potato option instead of the tofu! My friend tried the shrimp one and the consensus was the same. * Service was fairly quick and it's on a busy street which is fun considering you don't have to go too far to explore * I'm glad I tried the restaurant but likely wouldn't crave or come back unfortunately.

Beef debris Poboy is awesome! Enjoy it at the bar at the Erin Rose. Combo that can't go wrong!

Only been here once, but I have heard about this place for over a decade and hadn't checked it out until I was in the quarter recently. I was excited to try it because I heard they had vegan/vegetarian Poboy options. I got their tofu Poboy, I don't remember what it was called. I think it was like a lemongrass, tofu flavor or something like that. But it was basically a tofu bahn mí, but it was delicious and incredible! The vegetables, the peanuts, the sauce, the bread, it all went together so well. Was it delicious Meal. Can't wait to come back!

If you're a Lover of Po-Boys, then you want to visit Killer PoBoys in NOLA. We stopped by after a10K step day and weren't disappointed. Bare bones spot but great food reasonably priced. We both had Shrimp Po-Boys with their famous pickled carrots served on warm hot dog bun. Potato salad was wonderful but a different taste. Partner had collard greens that she raved about. Highly recommend you stop by this lively joint!

Ordered the Beef Debris Poboy. Man, that horseradish had me sweating like crazy! Got a side salad which was surprisingly big compared to other restaurants and given it was $4. Was delicious and will try out the other sandwiches next time we visit NO. Atmosphere was nothing fancy; fast-casual restaurant. You come here for a tasty sandwich though. read more

I was researching Erin Rose and every review mentioned the Killer Poboys in the back, so I was intrigued. I'm not an authority on poboys, but I've been told this is not really a traditional poboy and that it's more of a cross between poboy and bahn mi, with all the pickled vegetables. I know I love bahn mi, so I was sold. It's tucked away at the back of the bar, which is already pretty small. But the service was so friendly. I placed my order and then went to the front of the house to grab a frozen Irish coffee. There's one six people ish table and some small bar space in the Killer Poboys area, so I sat by the bar solo until my sandwich came out. I got the grilled shrimp poboy-- it reminded me a lot of the grilled shrimp sandwich from Num Pang, which is an NYC institution I miss dearly. But the bread is much softer and plentiful. The mayo and the overflowing pickled carrots makes it a messy experience. For Gulf shrimp, the fishy taste was almost nonexistent, a testament to the good seasoning and grilling. I wish we would all be so lucky to have late night bar eats like this. read more

Came here for a quick po boy. Didn't realize that they had a nice Asian twist on a lot of their sandwiches. I got the beef debris and it was so delicious with a sweet soy flavor. It had a very Korean flavor and was delicious. The bread got a little soggy, but I didn't mind and it held together well enough to eat, but probably wouldn't try to take that sandwich to go. They didn't have any iced coffee but their hot coffee did the trick for me. Overall a cool place to try a different type of po boy. read more

New Orleans is definitely a favorite food city of mine. This place is a jewel and I'll pull up whenever I'm blessed with being in town. Place is in the back of a bar but they are going crazy in the space they have. Menu has something for everybody, I'm still upset I never tried the sweet potato poboy with the greens and black eyed peas in it (¿WHAT?). Even the grilled cheese has gotta be good because the stuff I did eat was exceptional. Beef debris is full of tender beef with pickled green beans (first time for me, liked it). Also tried the shrimp poboy which was also really great, fresh with good amount of fresh shrimp and pickled daikon, carrots and cucumber. Bread was soft with a good chew and held up against the flavorful fillings. Depressing I can't find stuff like this at home, just something about NOLA I guess People were friendly and it's nice to have a drink while you wait for your food. All in all, some of the best Poboys I've had anywhere and will def pull up whenever I can read more

Located in the back of Erin Rose. Came here for a quick snack. I got the braised beef which was alright. More shredded beef which is great but I would've preferred more fattier beef chunks more like the roast beef po'boy counterpart at other places. The addition of green beans did cut the richness of the beef and added more variety. These types of po'boys do get soggy but that's a plus since it absorbs those meat juices. I wouldn't order this po'boy again and should've probably got the shrimp one. read more

In New Orleans for a few days, and Killer Poboys was high on my list of places to visit. This location is slightly hidden in the back of Erin Rose. But honestly it's a pro move to grab a great sandwich and frozen Irish coffee at the same time. We tried the Black Beer Beef Debris Poboy and the Seared Gulf Shrimp Poboy. Beef: 6/10 honestly not a huge fan of this one. The bread is great but the beef doesn't have a good meaty flavor. The toppings were not our favorite either. Shrimp: 10:10 this poboy is definitely comparable to a bahn mi, but that doesn't take away from the fact that this is a wonderful sandwich. The shrimp are juicy and flavorful with hints of lime, the toppings are fresh and compliment the sandwich nicely, and the sauce is delicious. Overall, we would definitely visit Killer Poboys again, especially for the shrimp poboy. read more

Killer Poboys inside Erin Rose Bar is an absolute hidden gem. Don't be fooled by the dive bar vibes--these are arguably the best po'boys in the French Quarter. We went on a Wednesday afternoon at 1 PM, and, true to Bourbon Street fashion, the bar was already buzzing. Just walk to the back, past the bar goers, and you'll find a small, unassuming alcove on the left where you order your food. The menu is simple (it's a tiny bar, after all), but they do surprisingly take cards. We got the pork belly po'boy, and it was phenomenal--rich, juicy, and packed with flavor. It's not fancy dining by any means, but in that dimly lit, grungy bar, you'll find one heck of a sandwich. Highly recommend! read more

Killer Poboys is a great spot if you want a unique twist to the traditional Poboy fare. I went straight for the Seared Shrimp Poboy, which I can best describe as a fusion-style Banh Mi, and I absolutely loved it! Like many sandwich shops in New Orleans, you order and pay at the counter, take a number, find a table, and you're order will be brought to you. The staff here was great and my order came out quickly. It's a tiny establishment, but has a surprising amount of seating available. The restroom is tiny, but clean. Conveniently located in the French Quarter. I will definitely be eating here again! read more

When in New Orleans, you must try a Poboy. At least that's what I'm told. I happened to be at the Erin Rose indulging in some libations and noticed that Killer Poboys was open for lunch in the back. I tried out the shrimp poboy and was impressed. Not overwhelmed, but it was definitely a solid lunch to go with some packaged cajun chips. I'd go back, but mostly because that's where I'd like to do my drinking anyway. Perfectly fine sandwich on a really good bread. Solid service. Nothing to write home about with the location or ambiance, but solid overall. read more

Know before you go: these are banh mi style poboys, not traditional NOLA poboys. That being said, I thought it was over the moon delicious! We all shared our orders so we could try more stuff. I fell in love with that pork belly poboy though. Price is a little steep for how big the sando is, but not too bad considering it's in the Quarter. Much better to support LOCAL small businesses instead of some of the garbage on Bourbon. Would I be willing, as a local, to drive to the Quarter, Pay for parking etc just for this? No. If I'm down there already and hungry, this place is definitely a move. TL;DR Food taste= five stars, Location/price = 4 stars read more

There are a couple locations for Killer Poboys and we had walked by one earlier in the day and knew we had to eat there. My Uber driver also said THIS is the place for a Poboy. Honestly, not even sure how we found it as it's hidden in the back of a bar and we saw no signage in front. Maybe that's on purpose? Hubs put it in the GPS and we were surprised as hell to find it at Erin Rose. It's a tiny spot, few seats and only a small window to order from. Don't judge a book by it's cover! We ordered 2 poboys to split by recommendation of the employee: Seared Gulf Shrimp and Black Beer Beef Debris. Both were incredible... honestly think I liked the Shrimp better but when both tasted like perfection, why choose!? Highly recomend Killer Poboys and I know when I am back in New Orleans, I will be going here! read more

Want some amazing PoBoys, then look no further than Killer Poboys! My wife and I wanted to give Killer Poboys a try but the main location was closed because it was late. We found they had a "hidden" location in the back of Erin Rose bar and it made our night. We got the Seared Gulf Shrimp and Black Beer Beef Debris Poboys and both were amazing. Yum, yum, yum, yum Yep they were great! HIGHLY recommend stopping by Killer Poboys if you're in NOLA you will not be disappointed. read more

We have come for a few days in the area, and there has been a lot of food that was "wow!" The po boy? Meh. The meat was absolutely flavorful, and the pickled veggies or slaw were really good! As you can see.... my sandwhich was .....75% slaw.... so I can choose to have a mouthful of slaw or or aouthful of maotly pork belly. Givennthe price.. I was disappointed in the meat portions of my sandwich. My husband sandwich would be my recommendation, fuller meat and the pickle veggies was good! read more

We tried all their vegetarian items and likes them all. Collards were cooked so well (no ham hock). Grilled cheese was good but could appreciate the cheese flavor as much as I wanted to. The only thing is that the almond butter with pepper jelly could have had more jelly. We weren't getting the flavor as much. Over all, I would go there again.

I was visiting NOLA for the first time and wanted to have the famous poboy everyone raves about. I saw that this place had good reviews and stopped in to try it. I got a seared shrimp poboy. Sandwich was small and hardly had and shrimp on it. It felt more like an Asian fusion than Cajun, which isn't inherently bad but wasn't what I was expecting. This place felt like a tourist trap through and through, I'd recommend going outside the of downtown to get something more authentic. read more

I've heard of Killer Po Boys and wanted to try it one day with my husband but we had trouble finding it; ended up eating somewhere else. Afterward we were walking back to our hotel, but like many other nights, my husband wanted to stop by ERIN ROSE bar to get his Frozen Irish Coffee. Usually he gets it to go but for whatever reason we decided to drink at the bar. Go figure the couple sitting next to us had a couple of interesting sandwiches; Since I never knew ERIN ROSE served food I inquired to the couple how their food is and that was when I learned KILLER PO BOYS in inside of ERIN ROSE. Even though we already ate, it looked good enough to get one to share; it was a Vietnamese type po boy (like a bahn mi). IT WAS AMAZING ! I don't if it was really a bahn mi but it had pickled carrots and other good stuff that reminded me of bahn mi but there was also this sauce that was delicious. Since then, we've been back quite a few times; especially since we love the bar here. Last visit, my husband kept telling me how much he loved his BBQ Chicken Po Boy. read more

We came here before the lunchtime rush. You order at the counter, if you are eating there they give you a number and they will bring out your food when it's ready. We divided to split the seared shrimp poboy and the beef debris poboy. I started with the beef debris, it was a heaping mound of piping hot roast beef, sliced banana peppers and picked green beans. There was horseradish in the sandwich too. The sandwich on its own was good. The hot sauce on the table made it even better. The roll held up well to the juicy meat but this was a 4 napkin for half a sandwich dish. The seared shrimp poboy was really good. Nice seasoning on the shrimp and they were cooked perfectly. Shredded carrots, and radishes gave the sandwich a nice crunch. The vinegar I'm the hot sauce took the sandwich to an even higher level. It was so nice to get away from the fried shrimp. The restaurant and bathroom were both spotless. Will definitely come back and try other sandwiches. read more

Everything was disrespectfully delicious. Every bite had us questioning our life choices in the best way. By the end of the meal, we were all sleepy and completely defeated by how good the food was. The staff was on point, courteous, and polite. Our food came out hot, fast, and perfectly plated with consistency that never misses.

We ordered the black-eyed pea chili and the muffuletta, and the sandwich completely stole the show. The bread was perfectly soft, and you can really taste the difference in quality with their in-house meats. The olive salad tied the whole thing together, complementing the rich, savory flavors perfectly. That being said, the space gets extremely crowded on busy days. It's tight enough that you'll likely have people bumping into your chair or brushing past you while you eat and walk through the dining room. The biggest downside was the service at the counter. The line to the cashiers was very disorganized. Instead of calling the next person in line, one cashier was pulling people up at random, which made the ordering process frustrating. Overall, the food is fantastic, but be prepared for chaotic crowds and a messy ordering system during peak hours.

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.

I come to central deli whenever I'm with someone not from New Orleans due to the fact their muffuletta is quintessential! I would like to reiterate nothing was wrong with the food , great food purely with the lady taking orders. I got a classic half muffuletta and a "glass" San pellegrino. The lady then told me open glass is prohibited in New Orleans , I retorted with "o really I didn't know that , since when?" Before I could finish The lady then yelled with "SINCE FOREVER, IM SORRY YOUVE BEEN TO BAD BARS WHERE THEY SERVE YOU GLASS ITS BEEN ILLEGAL SINCE THE 50s" which isn't true the city changed the law in 2001. She then proceeded to open my glass bottle even though I told her I didn't want it open, so I the asked if I could get another one since she was in rage mode and didn't understand that she just contradicted herself. As I asked for the second San Pellegrino, she then takes the first one and goes "NO PROBLEM THANKS FOR THE FREE DRINK", and starts to drink the San Pellegrino infront of me as I check out, making thirst quenching noises like "AHH". As I leave she can't help but remind me for her free drink again. I'm pretty sure the management witness this whole situation and I hope they do something about, that lady doesn't realize what hospitality is and needs to be fired. I did nothing to her and I bet I wasn't the first she has blow up on. But in my eyes absolutely unacceptable.

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.

Our main server, Nohariz, was incredible. She was warm and made the experience elevated to another level. The rest of the staff were also amazing and attentive. It felt like we ordered the entire menu with our group and enjoyed nearly all of the dishes. Our Order: APPETIZERS- -Louisiana Oyster ($19): Overall decent oysters but didn't stand out. - Seafood Gumbo ($13): Has a little bit of a kick to it and tasted homey. Better than other seafood gumbo and particularly better than ACME's. ENTREES- - Eggs Sardou ($26): The artichokes were perfection. They had the right amount of batter ratio and the flavors were delicious together. - Pecan Gulf Fish( $31): This was my favorite dish here. The fish of the day was fresh and had the right balance of tenderness to crispiness. - Eggs Owen ($32): The braised short rib was so soft and flavorful. It melted in our mouths and was one of our favorites. - Duck Confit Waffle ($32): Mixed review for our table. Someone that doesn't typically like duck, liked this more because of the waffle and sweet flavors. I found the duck way too salty and I don't care for sweet and savory dishes. No one really cared for the confit. TRADITIONAL BRENNAN's BREAKFAST ($80)- The amount of food that came was way more than we expected and especially because we didn't see that each dish came with a drink pairing. - Brandy Milk Punch: Tasted like an alcholic milk shake. - Baked Apple: We didn't particularly care that it came out at the beginning. It tasted like the inside of an apple pie but less sugary. It was interesting but not something we would get again. - Turtle soup (paired with Bloody Bull Cocktail): We were hesitant at first but decided to give it a try. We couldn't tell if we were tasting any turtle or see any of it. The aged sherry is supposed to soften the meat but ended up ruining the dish for us. - Egg Hussarde (paired with champagne): Standard but good. - Petite Filet Mignon (paired with wine)- So good and tender. We wished there was more. - World Famous Bananas Foster( paired with coffee with chicory)- It was fun to hear the story behind the creation and to watch it made in front of us. Delicious to share but can quite sweet after a few bites. It came out with the coffee pairing and that helped balance it out. 2026 is Brennnan's 80th anniversary and since we were also celebrating a couple of birthdays, the restaurant surprised them with some aprons (pink for the special 80th) and a large cotton candy with a surprise cake and ice cream underneath. This was a fun addition to our dining experience and lit up the birthday people's faces. I ended up taking the coffee to-go because I couldn't finish it and a server was kind enough to put it in the cup and add ice per my request. The bill came out much less than I was anticipating given the amount of food we had on our table. Though some dishes were average, the dining experience and service well made up for them. We definitely recommend this restaurant.

I was told not to order gumbo at Deanie's because it's too "salty". I decided to be spontaneous this afternoon and grab lunch to geaux. My shrimp remaulade wedge was amazing-fresh ingredients and great homemade remoulade dressing. Unfortunately, the gumbo did indeed have way too much salt in it. So much, I couldn't eat more than a couple of spoonfuls. I love gumbo- but I do NOT recommend getting it at Deanie's unless you love the taste of salt. I prefer it seasoned, but not salty. The service is always top notch. There ya geaux! -Mike in the Quarter

Cochon Butcher

I'll never get tired of this heaven sent spot. I make it a point to introduce everyone I know to…read moreCochon Butcher, and even though I've reviewed it already, I'm updating my review because they continue to deserve the praise. Everything was disrespectfully delicious. Every bite had us questioning our life choices in the best way. By the end of the meal, we were all sleepy and completely defeated by how good the food was. The staff was on point, courteous, and polite. Our food came out hot, fast, and perfectly plated with consistency that never misses. My only small complaint is that the sweet potato habanero sauce isn't as thick as it used to be. I'm a little annoyed about that, but it still tastes exactly the same Cochon Butcher remains one of those must visit New Orleans spots that never disappoints. Great food, great service, and a place I'll always adore.

If you're wondering if Cochon Butcher is worth the hype, it absolutely is. It's totally clear why…read morethey are Michelin-recommended. We ordered the black-eyed pea chili and the muffuletta, and the sandwich completely stole the show. The bread was perfectly soft, and you can really taste the difference in quality with their in-house meats. The olive salad tied the whole thing together, complementing the rich, savory flavors perfectly. That being said, the space gets extremely crowded on busy days. It's tight enough that you'll likely have people bumping into your chair or brushing past you while you eat and walk through the dining room. The biggest downside was the service at the counter. The line to the cashiers was very disorganized. Instead of calling the next person in line, one cashier was pulling people up at random, which made the ordering process frustrating. Overall, the food is fantastic, but be prepared for chaotic crowds and a messy ordering system during peak hours.

The sandwich was...meh. OK for late night bar food. My real problem was the steaming pile of attitude that came with it. The guys behind the counter WOULD NOT make the sandwich on the type of bread I requested, even though they had the bread. Evidently that would have ruined their oh-so-precious "flavor profile" or something. I was also denied cheese on my sandwich. Again, they HAD the cheese, and I offered to pay extra for it, but I was basically told that what I wanted was wrong, and that they could not possibly bend their unwavering principles to give a paying customer what she asks for. I was with friends who were starving, so tried to stay cool, though I wanted to walk staight out the door when treated so rudely. Guess what? That poboy turned out to be nothing special, but would have been a bit better with cheese. These guys need to get over themselves and quit acting like they are some kinda revolutionary new chefs. I will mos def not return, especially when there's so much great food to be had in NOLA, almost all of it served to order and with a smile. Hipster douchebags, no thanks. read more

This place is awesome. Went with a few friends during our lunch our and split the dark and stormy and the braised beef. Both were incredible. Like others have said, the seasonings they used accent each other very well. Not too much and not too little glaze/sauce on the pork, it was just right. The owners were extremely nice and friendly and told us a couple of new poboys will be debuting next week. Great find, will definitely be back. read more

We came to the Erin Rose on Tuesday to try the bloody Mary based on yelp reviews. While there we heard a couple say they came buy on the recommendation of a co-worker because they had the best poboys. Unfortunately Killer Poboys is closed on Tuesdays. Do we came back Wednesday to give them a try. My husband and I shared the pork belly and meatloaf poboys. Both were really good, the pork belly one was kind of amazing. read more

The name says it. These PoBoys are really killer! Everyone in my group picked a different one so that we could all try each other's. I ordered the seared gulf shrimp (which was my favorite). We also had the roasted sweet potato, and roasted beef debris. All of them were excellent and this should be your first stop in The Big Easy. read more

Killer Poboys just by the name had me a bit skeptical. However, the name definitely serves this place well as the poboys are killer. The pork belly poboy was killer. I generally do not eat this type of food as there is sooo much goodness in Louisiana, but if you are in the mood for a great sandwich. This is your spot. read more

I love this hole in the wall. Their shrimp and dark and stormy pork was excellent. Found out food is not exactly reasonable in this city so tried to find some alternatives and really happy I did. These po boys tasted like a super high end meal in a bun. Well worth it. read more

Excellent PoBoys, amazing service, a bit hard to find, go in the bar and head all the way to the back. You will not regret it. We had the lamb, beef and shrimp Poboys and I rank them in that order but each was heavenly. Get plenty of napkins! read more

Seared gulf shrimp po boys- marinated radish, carrot, cucumber. There's a bottle of hot sauce at the counter that elevates the taste. This is not your traditional po boys as it's more Japanese/Vietnamese fusion but it's totally worth it. read more

NO SIGN ANYWHERE for this outside of Erin Rose. We even peeked inside to see if this was the place, and no trace of it. You're losing customers for po boys in a place where there are a lot more places to get them! Put a sign! read more

They are taking the poboy to the next level. Great to have something different since every shop in the quarter has the same old standards. The horseradish on the beef poboy was great snuck up on you but not overpowering. read more
