Walking into Cochon Butcher, one is immediately struck by something that is not always easy to…read moreachieve in the restaurant business: a palpable sense of professionalism. Everything appears carefully considered and efficiently executed. The layout is purposeful, the operation is remarkably well organized, the space is impeccably clean, and the presentation of the products is both attractive and inviting. The restaurant's steady stream of customers throughout much of the day is hardly surprising. There is an obvious rhythm and efficiency to the operation, yet it never feels rushed or chaotic. Instead, there is a sense that every component of the business has been thoughtfully orchestrated. The staff further reinforces this impression. They are exceptionally friendly, courteous, and accommodating, but what stands out most is their knowledge. They are able to answer questions, offer guidance, and navigate the extensive menu with confidence, making the experience both comfortable and enjoyable. And the menu itself is a destination. It offers an impressive range of choices, with an appealing variety of meats, sandwiches, sides, and beverages. There is far too much temptation to reasonably expect one visit to be sufficient. In fact, choosing what to order may be the most difficult part of the experience. Their version of the muffuletta an outstanding of the original. Particularly their version of the bread, which was fresh, and warmly toasted renders it a cut above. Cochon Butcher is therefore a restaurant best approached with the intention of returning. One visit gives you an introduction; several visits allow you to truly appreciate the breadth of what they do. The combination of organization, cleanliness, quality, knowledgeable service, and an extensive menu makes Cochon Butcher a particularly impressive example of how a busy restaurant can operate with both efficiency and character.

Cochon Butcher was definitely worth the stop!

We noticed a guy sitting by himself and offered to buy him a beer if he'd let us join him at his table. He said yes, and it ended up being part of the fun experience! The food was excellent. We ordered the Cochon Muffaletta, which was huge, packed with flavor, and definitely a must-try. The mac & cheese is an absolute MUST--creamy, cheesy, rich, and easily one of my favorite things we ordered. The beer was great too and paired perfectly with the food. The atmosphere is casual, lively, and exactly the kind of place you want to experience while in New Orleans. 5/5 -- great food, great beer, and absolutely worth the visit. I would definitely come back!

Muffuletta and cheesesteak all day!!…read more That's our go to sammiches. Lots of folks, and I mean lots, really like the wow sauce. We think it just ok. The cheesesteak is super tasty, great bread steak sliced thin and cooked just right and American cheese to make melty. The hot muffuletta is one of the best in town. Plenty of meat and olive spread and the toasted muffuletta bread is so good. Service? What service you order at the cashier, not in the back, you pay your money, stay out of the way and wait for your number to get called. It's that simple. Don't wander around in the back looking at the deli counter confused, the place is too small and they don't take your order there. Don't try it, don't think about it, don't even look back there. The cashier is up front thats where you wanna be. When they call your number take your bag and leave. Walk away from the front door then shove it in your face. It's so good. Even if for some reason you didn't like the food that's ok, you got a real NOLA experience so know matter what you're a winner. I went by myself this time so only a cheesesteak pic, but just imagine that pic in muffuletta form with different toppings and no melty cheese.

They do pre-make them as on user mentioned, but its a Muffuletta. There is only one way to make and eat that. If you want a sandwich you can customize you might want to go to a different spot. They had some pre made deserts as well. If you want an authentic Muffuletta then here is your place to go! It has a small section in the back to sit and eat your sandwich. It's a deli not a diner so the seating is not super fancy. They have bathrooms for customers and it's the best Muffuletta you can eat. Well worth the trip.

I was really in the mood for a delicious sandwich and remembered I'd never tried Ike's. I was…read moresurprised by the place. I expected a cookie cutter franchise vibe but it really fit into the neighborhood, giving off the feel of a local dive bar, and I love it. Our waiter was the greatest. He walked us through the menu and the drinks and let us know they actually have thousands of sandwiches. The menu itself is probably 4 to 6 pages, but you can use their app to see all the additional options. I ordered the "Marshawn Lynch" (fried chicken, bacon, BBQ sauce, Sriracha, mustard, and cheddar cheese) and added red onions, peppers, and pickles. My wife ordered a sandwich straight from the app, the "Bad Santa" (chicken fried steak, rich marinara sauce, savory pesto, and provolone cheese). Both sandwiches were incredible. We also grabbed two cocktails that were only $5 each. I'm already looking forward to trying more of these sandwiches.

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.

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.

Parkway Bakery and Tavern has been around since 1911 (and the current ownership has had it since…read more1997), so obviously, they are doing something right. I pulled up on a Sunday and since I called it in just under an hour before closing, I decided to get it to go. I ordered it about twenty minutes out and when I arrived, it was ready. The takeout process was in itself unique. I pulled up to what they called a "yellow tollbooth) to pay. He called on his radio that I paid and I pulled up to a covered door and they handed off my food. The overall ambiance from outside looked cool enough. Next time, I will eat it there, but I just did not want to be inconsiderate to everyone getting out on time. I found a local park and tore into my food. I went with the large surf and turf po' boy (roast beef and shrimp) and found it very good. For the price point, out the door with taxes, it was just over twenty dollars.
