    Friends toasting with Shots
    Debra D.

    Met with my High School Bestie here and this is their Spot. It's close to their home and very Good company. The ambiance is Amazing and extremely Comfortable. The only Place that I've been to where you can smoke!!! The people are So Awesome and Super Friendly. The first night that I went; I ordered wings and loaded tater tots. Amazing, the tots were truly Loaded. Upon my second visit, I ordered the burger and fries; one of the Best Burgers I've had in a long time. So needless to say anytime I'm in New Orleans, you'll probably be able to Find Me Here.

    Extra charred Burnt Burger, hard as a rock.

    I wouldn't even rate this place one star. I Drove 30 minutes away from where I live to order food from this place, as they were the only place open serving food. When I walked in, The entire bar was full of smoke, & smelled like burnt charred as*! You could smell that the grill hadn't been cleaned in lord only knows how long. Which Should have prompted me to checked my food right then & there.By the time I got home, I opened my food. To this completely burnt burger that was hard as a rock, & tasted like straight burnt charred as*! I took one but & couldn't fathom taking another! That's how bad it was! & They had just Closed for the night. So today I called & very politely explained the situation to the lady on the phone. I simply asked if I could bring it back to return & switch out the burnt burger they gave me, for one that is actually edible. She declined to do so! & instead told me "that I could bring it in, but they wouldn't exchange it!" Like why would I bring them back a burnt burger, if they wouldn't exchange it? To waste more money on garbage food, that I wouldn't even feed my dog? ‍ So needless to say, I threw away $30! Between 5 soggy onion rings, this bunt ass burger, & a tip for (the nice bartender who was working that night!) & not to mention my total was $5 higher then the prices it claimed to be on the menu! So I will never spend another penny at this sh*t hole place! Not only do they serve horribleeeee food that's garbage, but you get garbage customer service to go along with it smh!!!!

    Lol ok is it 1990?

    Bro, in the year of our Lord 2019, there is ZERO reason to allow smoking in a place that serves food. That's just gross. We were here to see a band on a Saturday night and naturally the place was packed. They have a kitchen area, a stage area and a decent tap list. They also allow smoking. Not only do they allow smoking but the place reeks of cigarette smoke. I think everyone was smoking when we were here- even the bartender was smoking while she was working. Good Lord. That's not even the craziest part. The craziest part is the cigarette machine at the door, so you can buy cigarettes to smoke! It was insane. We were here maybe 45 minutes and left stinking of smoke, so I doubt I'll be back. Jefferson Parish smoking ban soon come.

    Bacon burger with cheese
    Shalon P.

    Came here to order food before going to the movies. Ordered a bacon cheese burger and a peanut butter burger. Burgers come with plain Ruffles but can be substituted for fries with a small upcharge. We were asked how we wanted our burgers cooked. They were over cooked and dry though so it didn't really matter. Luckily condiments were on the bar to help. Sweet potato fries were delicious as were the chips. Probably won't be back. There's better food closer to the theater

    Double bacon cheeseburger
    Grace S.

    It's a smoky bar. Really great brew on tap. Last night their was a DJ mixing music. My friend told me that they have great burgers. I wish I had ordered what he ordered because it was reasonable and measured: a cheese burger with sweet potato fries. The sweet potato fries were so good! Crispy on the outside fluffy pillowy softness in side. I have never eaten here so I did not realize that the patty for the burger is more than twice the size I was thinking!

    a drink and a menu

    This is a bar/restaurant. The grill and deep fryer are behind the bar, so there is an odor of fried food in the place. There is a long bar with ample seating and lots of sofas and lounging areas. I ordered a draft beer and a Crown on the rocks and was surprised when she put my drink down and the glass was filled. I had $20 on the bar that she picked up and brought my change with a receipt. My tab was $17! The receipt is a math quiz. I asked what the "F$3.89" charge was for. She explained that if someone orders a liquor on the rocks, she pours a double so the glass gets filled. $3.89 for an extra shot sounds weird, and I didn't bother asking what the 67 cent discount was for. This is an unethical tourist scam, and we are in Harahan, not on Bourbon Street. I told her it was not right and she should ask first. She shrugged. Weird pricing and discounts. This is not your typical watering hole. We finished our drinks and left.

    Not tonight....

    Great place, good drinks, nice people working there. The food is 2 steps above regular "bar" food. Tuesday night trivia is a blast.

    Italian sandwich shop conveniently located by Tulane!…read more If you have ever been to Italy, you know this iconic focaccia bread sandwich, well here it is in New Orleans! The Roma is probably my favorite because it is more savory. The positano was a little sweeter than I expected with the fig jam. I love the fig jam. Both sandwiches were great and you can't go wrong Price is pricey Bread is oily Parking is street and somewhat difficult to find, had to walk 2 blocks Only has about 3 small tables to sit outside, otherwise you're out of luck. I took it to go since there was no seating. Overall, I'd definitely come back. I think half a sandwich per person would suffice instead of a whole next time. It still tasted good after being in the fridge for a day.

    What is not to love about a sandwich shop who makes their own Italian bread and imports their meats…read moreand cheeses from Italy? Our sandwiches were to die for. I had the Napoli. The prosciutto was heavenly, the sweetness of the fig spread coupled with the spicy Calabrian chilis is out of this world. Sooo good! Mike had the Pisa. Despite the chicken being a perfectly thin cotoletta (yes, I have been taking Italian lessons for the past year ) it was still moist and crispy. The sauce was wonderful and the mozzarella was melted to form the most delightful sandwich. We had planned to get back over there before we left town but failed to. Alas, another reason to come back to NOLA This place is not an eat in establishment but has 3 tables outside for you to enjoy your sandwiches. The young lady who took our order was friendly and pleasant and one of the owners (the mom) chatted with us. Our experience was wonderful. It reminded us of our visits to sandwich shops in Firenze. Panini deliziosi!
