    Mango jasmine green tea with lychee jelly
    Erika C.

    SUCH A GOOD SPOT TO STOP BY!!!! The drinks were refreshing! Tasted fresh and cooling -- much needed in a hot summer day. Had many tons to choose from and service was super friendly and knowledgeable. After walking awhile and before a full day of exploring -- this is exactly what was needed. The jelly was amazing and I enjoyed my mango jasmine green tea -- YUM.

    Shrimp curry ramen
    Theresa K.

    I was brought to Mr Bubbles by one of good friends who spoke highly of the food. As soon as you walk in the door the smell of the food hits you in the face. It smelled so good!!! The employees greeted us as soon as we walked in the door, they were very friendly and helpful. I ordered the spicy curry shrimp ramen, and the chicken avocado wrap (added spicy Mayo). I enjoy spicy food and this food was perfect. The ramen I could eat everyday, it came with ramen, carrots, cabbage, curry, and shrimp. The shrimp curry ramen will from here on out be my go to. The chicken wrap was also amazing. It had grilled chicken, carrots, spicy Mayo ( added it does not originally come on it), and cucumber. This spot of definitely a must try!!

    We tried this since we were in town and the raving reviews we just had to. Grilled shrimp spring rolls 5/5 I really love this take on the regular spring rolls. The shrimps were plentiful and very well seasoned. They really help balanced the noodles. I really enjoyed them. Combo banh mi 4/5 The loaf of bread was huge and baked to a good crunch. The insides were good. Mango black tea 3/5 This tasted more like just sweet tea with boba. The boba was super soft. I prefer boba with a little bite. The drink overall was decent. Green smoothie 3/5 It was light with a strange floral taste. I did get it without sugar but the floral just threw me off a bit. Very healthy tasting. It was not my favorite but might be for others.

    Double pork (meatballs and shredded) with crunchy carrots and cucumber with added siracha mayo.

    Nice atmosphere to sit down for lunch of freshly made bahn mi and a smoothie so I can go for it with added raw jalapeños and siracha sauce packets to add to my liking. Not spicy with out those so anyone can try it. Nice stained glass windows and hi music.

    Ube, Pandan,  a nice twist

    Everyone comes to Nola for Creole/Cajun/Soul food, but I mainly eat Vietnamese here. The impact of Vietnamese immigrants on the city's variety of cuisines is not to be denied. Perfect grilled shrimp bahn mi, perfect crackly French bread, just enough heat, a work of art. It's a little off the beaten path from the Quarter, but take the streetcar down a few stops and you won't be disappointed. Protip: they have an in with Dong Phuong's king cakes. See photo to order.

    My friends and I came here for some bubble tea and were disappointed. We ordered the brown sugar milk tea and and the peach manga iced tea. They were watered down and the syrup tasted really strong and chemically. It was definitely lacking in flavor and not very sweet.

    jasmine milk tea with boba
    Kristen N.

    Solid option for a quick lunch downtown. Parking can be tricky along Canal, but worth stopping in. Food is fairly priced- $8.25 for banh mi w chips, boba is $6 for 24oz. BBQ pork banh mi is really flavorful and large. Jasmine milk tea with boba was also great- strong jasmine flavor and not too sweet, they don't add a ton of ice so you get a lot of tea with a good boba:tea ratio. I would re-order both again. The employees are really nice and helpful if you have any questions and have your order ready quickly. You can eat here, or they'll pack everything up for you in a to-go bag

    So pleased with my experiences here! The workers are all so friendly and the seating areas are always nice and clean. Their Bánh mì is very filling and reasonably priced. My favorite is the chicken. At the register they have a little flip book of what each Bánh mì looks like. The soft baguette, marinated meat and fresh vegetables make such a great combination. I also tried their Jasmine milk tea. My biggest turn off when it comes to milk tea is when it's too sweet but this one was just right and I didn't have to ask for a lower sweetness level! The boba was also soft and cooked well. My only complaint is that I wish they had a smaller size option. I had ordered King cakes from Nola Bun Mi for pick-up at this location. They take orders through their Instagram (@nolabunmi) for pickup on specific days. Orders are limited so turn on notifications for their posts! They offer ube with cream cheese frosting and pandan with coconut cream cheese frosting. I'm pretty new to New Orleans so this was my first King cake ever and it did not disappoint!! Highly recommend checking them out.

    Grilled shrimp banh mi
    Shalon P.

    Finally made it 30min before closing. Their hours are super inconvenient. Anywho, I ordered the grilled shrimp banh mi and an avocado smoothie. Both were really very good. The pickled veggies and cucumber just elevates banh mi above most sandwiches. Shrimp were well seasoned and cooked fresh. Servers were friendly. Smoothie was delicious. Glad I finally made it over in time

    So many choices! We had the Thai Tea and the frozen coffee. It was very good. It has the plastic sealed top on their drinks. We also added boba which was soft and prepared correctly. There are other add-ins like lychee jelly. Service was really good. Great place to try out. Will return.

    Avocado Bubble Teas!!
    Maria M.

    This place is adorable and super clean. I am happy to have found a local place that makes my favorite smoothie. I found Mr. Bubble on Yelp and brought my besty here for bubble tea. It is located at a less busy area of Canal so parking was a breeze. We both ordered avocado bubble tea with tapioca bubbles and strawberry popping bubbles. It was delicious!! My besty preferred the strawberry bubbles. I like a mix of both, just for fun. The krewe behind the counter were on point and very courteous. There were several people picking up to-go orders and they seemed steady but not overcrowded. They had several lunch selections that looked good but we had already eaten and just wanted the drinks. I will definitely be back!

    Enjoying bubble tea from Mr Bubbles

    Ok, bubble tea is an awesome thing, if you are a kid with a sweet tooth. When you are nearing 50 and a diabetic, maybe not so much. The thing is that it is soo refreshing and cold and the tea place is soooop cold and nice, I couldn't help it. I fell in love. I had passion fruit tea with mango and strawberries. Be sure to get tapioca pearls for your authentic bubbles. We also had 2 orders of Vietnamese style avocado spring rolls, soft crap and fresh. Everything here is a step up from normal and very clean. Clean is a big deal to me and most people. This is nice and very clean.

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.

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 bologna sandwich and the collard green melt are two of the most creative, satisfying things you can eat anywhere in this country.

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.

Yes it's a small Italian deli and shop but it's also the home of the original muffuletta sandwich, opening in 1906. I hate olives, but I was converted by this sandwich.

I…read morenever ever write reviews because I believe they hurt small businesses and feeds the egos of the ignorant, but that being said this place pissed me the fuck off with their service. 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.

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.

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 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.
