Have been going here for over 30 years. Love this place always on point with food, employees..... They know how to make you feel at home...

Wasn't the hype that @latryguy hyped up! My seafood taste like boiled water, no flavor. The dirty rice was sticky and nasty. Only thing right was my hot sausage sandwich other than that. Hard pass read more

ThIs for the shrimp boy only , overly salted fried shrimp and a lot if not all were not Deveined I didnt like just the mayo it lacked true flavor in my opinion. Now for good stuff when say great prices I mean great prices , great amount of shrimp I mean shrimp everywhere nice crunch to them and did I say how good the prices are . read more

Back in the day (pre-Hurricane Katrina, cause you know we always compare stuff before and after the storm), Triangle Deli was everything. It was definitely in my top 5 of where to get quick, delicious food. You get so much food on one plate and it's always enough to get your money's worth. Most recently, we visited and ordered a baked chicken plate for the children. Both my niece and nephew ate off of the same plate. My mother and I got the fried catfish and fried catfish and shrimp plate. My sister got a rib plate. Now, let me break down how everyone's food tasted. The fish and shrimp is always good! I mean, the way they fry fish down South is the best. For sides, we got green peas, mac n cheese and potato salad. The green peas didn't have any flavor. It was like they just heated some canned peas with just a little bit of butter. Even the children didn't like them. The potato salad was just okay. The best was the mac n cheese. I ate all of mine. But who doesn't like creamy, cheesy pasta?! Yummy!! My sister couldn't finish her ribs, not because she was full but because they were overcooked. What a shame! If I hadn't stopped eating beef over 2 years ago, I would've gotten the stuffed peppers. They were always the best on the menu. If you have never been and are in the area, give Triangle Deli a try. read more

I assumed by the long lines that the food would be amazing but it was just okay. I ordered a roast beef po'boy and mac & cheese. The po'boy was dry. The mac & cheese wasn't very flavorable. read more

Woo wee! I love some Triangle...its lovated in the 7th ward neighborhood of Nola. Its in a convience store...that is bubbling full of colorful residents and great cooks. THIS is what folks mean "hole in the wall" kinda spot that is in "the cut"...away from the toursity hustle and bustle of the quarter. While I sat patiently by the cold sodas, I chatted with a local woman who was a joy. We were the first in line for the lunch menu. Now don't get me wrong...that breakfast lineup looks GREAT, but I had my mind and mouth set for some of that gumbo they are known for. Around 11:45am, I wasn't disappointed--they previously pulled the breakfast line up and replaced it with a whole mess of goodness!! gumbo, stuffed peppers, fried chicken, baked chicken, mac n cheese, greens etc....LAWD! I was 2nd in line...the line had gathered to almost the front door! "Gumbo please!" I requested...and I greedily watched them dip that laddle into that roux-ed up silky brown seafood, chicken neck (yes...but um um um!), sausage, crab delight! #EatBeyondTheQuarter read more

Triangle Deli - Waiting in line--happily! - Soul Food Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

I can't believe that I've never reviewed this establishment before. So anyone that knows me know. I used to eat here ALOT. I would be in there twice a day, for breakfast and lunch. I was looking for something hot while in the city, so I said let's go visit old friends. Just horrible. It was very packed(NOT A BIG DEAL) but with any business don't rush your customers because you're trying to get the crowd out. The girl that took my order was rude as hell. I told her what I wanted and she replied that they didn't have one of the items I asked for. Meanwhile I saw them just put that item on someone else's plate. The taste of the food was HORRIBLE. I had to come home and doctor it up a bit. It has TOTALLY changed. From the people working in there to the taste of the food. It's totally not the same. Bring back the old cooks and waiter. read more

Triangle Deli - Saturday menu - Soul Food Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Always good food! Very large portions and they get you taken care of quickly. The lines can be long but that tells you just how good the food is. read more

Service is ok....they are not as patient with newcomers but the food is seasoned to perfection and the portion sides are decent..... the orders come out fast as they have many ppl behind the counter taking orders. read more

This is a cool little hole in the wall. I had no idea it was there until this morning . You cannot beat Bacon, Eggs and Grits for $2.99. Liver plate for my Mom $3.99. As far as price goes its a steal. Food was good but the parking is BOO BOO to say the least . you pull into a parking space and someone parks behind you, not leaving enough room to back out. If i had been in my Suburban this morning I might have swapped paint and kept going . Just kidding (or am I). The challenge is that when one person does it you have to know the next person coming through has got to do it too. Il be back if im in the area but I think I'll park on the street. read more

Triangle Deli - Soul Food Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

I can't believe I only found out about this place recently! When I asked one of the workers how long this place existed, she answered, "Forever!" I am usually around this area, so I managed to grab lunch from here 3 times already. Their menu is quite large, but the daily specials have always caught my eyes. I have had their Lasagna, Shrimp Pasta, Stuffed Pepper, Crawfish Etouffee, Potato Salad, and Baked Macaroni so far. Triangle Deli looks like a small corner kitchen outside of a small gas station, but it's actually a part of it. There are some parking spots in the parking lot, but plenty of street parking nearby. It's your usual gas station when you walk in, but you can see the food counters in the back. When you walk in, you'll see a bunch of people lined up for their delicious soul food! During my visits I planned to get a daily hot food plate, but I quickly changed my mind when I saw their daily special options. There are a bunch of workers ready to serve you, so the wait times are never too long. If there's a wait, then it's usually because they're bringing out more food! Whenever they would get food for the take out box, I would think they would stop at one scoop like other places; but they literally keep scooping the food until it is TOPPED OFF. The prices are already affordable, but this really makes your meal a bang for its buck! My lunch has now become my lunch AND my dinner. They are really trying to feed you here! The daily specials I've gotten were all pretty good, with my favorite being the Crawfish Etouffee on Fridays! I'm so used to restaurants charging more than 5 bucks for a small bowl of mediocre crawfish etouffee. I ordered the large portion and they filled that box up! It had good flavor with a slight cajun kick. The ratio of crawfish etouffee to rice was good, they're not trying to rip you off with too much rice. I am supposed to always change it up, but I always choose potato salad and baked macaroni (+$1) as my sides. The baked macaroni is always a great side, but the potato salad can sometimes be a bit salty. The potato salad tasted a little different at each visit. I really enjoyed the stuffed pepper, it was cooked nicely and real stuffed up! All in all, a great lunch spot to grab a quick meal. It is actual hole-in-the-wall kitchen with good soul food! The gas station is fully stocked, so you can grab a bunch of drinks and snacks while you are on your lunch break. Be sure to come with an empty stomach! read more

My California soul sings every time I grace Nola and get to dig into some food from Triangle Deli. Is the the best fanciest food in the world? Absolutely not, is it delicious home cooked goodness that's accesible when you don't want to spend and arm and a leg on food? YES. The shrimp po boy is delicious, sure you can get a fancier one elsewhere but for $6 this does the trick, especially seeing as I can grab gas and a beer at the same location. If you want fancy-don't come here. If you want a hearty menu of rotating deliciousness, than this is the place for you! My California comrades would keep over at the amount of food you can get here Thank me later. read more

This is the place that locals go for that real soul food experience. It's cafeteria style, and there's always a long line. You get so much food for a great value! My favorite day to go is Sunday because they have yams, and that's my go-to along with the Mac and cheese and fried chicken. A nice little spot to satisfy that Thanksgiving food craving all year around. read more

Everything I've had from here is good. No complaints about the food or the service. Only thing I'm not a big fan of is the setup. There's not really enough room in there for the amount of business that they do. Sometimes the line gets pretty long and then you have to wait for your order to be put together. It can get a bit crowded. However wait times are not excessive. Do I recommend YES!! read more

I have been going to hush puppies since they opened in 1972. I'm trying to keep this short. The COOKS and the source of the FOOD are no longer the same . I have been trying to continue to patronize the business. But I am done. How can you mess up French fries . The cooking oil is NOT the same. The Cook doesn't know if he wants the fish cooked crispy or soft. Maybe if us old timers complain they will return the cooks or teach the new ones and go back to ordering your food supply from the same company read more

The locals suggested this place for some good authentic food! I ordered chicken, Mac & cheese, rice with gravy,& corn. The chicken was made fresh to order & the portions were a nice size especially for the price. The mac and cheese was cheesy but just didn't have enough seasoning. I would go back but I wouldn't get the Mac & cheese again! read more

Triangle Deli - Chicken wings, corn, rice & gravy, macaroni and cheese - Soul Food Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Interesting place in a sketchy part of town. Very busy food was tasty but didn't wow me as I have seen from other reviews. Will go back since I may have caught them in the middle of shift change. Portions are large and filling. read more

No mas. I saw their food on twitter years ago and it looked so good, tracked it down while I was in NOLA. Their parking is HORRIBLE. It's in a gas station, and that's not a problem gas station food can be fire, but this wasn't fire. My shrimp had Viena in them still, very visible. For those who still eat there, it's best that you know what you want, it's very loud and fast paced. And they have a variety of southern cuisine, but my experience wasn't great in any way unfortunately. read more

The Triangle at the Gretna location is just not as good as the New Orleans location. Also they put a lot more care and thought into the food there you get more. read more

The best thing about the food was the sides. I ordered the turkey wing and rice plate and it was disgusting. It taste like they used the gravy packs. The amount of food you get for the price is great but it lacks seasoning. If they get someone else to season the food it'll be great And brown that damn meat don't boil it read more

Excellent food. I am going to try everything. Telephone was so nice. How did I miss this place for so long. I sure won't anymore. Can't wait for Thursday and those mustard greens yummy. 5 of course See you soon. Oh yeah and the bread PUDDING. I simply can't wait. read more

Why did I let my co worker talk me into coming here? Look. You can come here and get a ton of food for the low. However, it's just not healthy. Not one bit. I had the 8 piece chicken wings, corn, mac and cheese and their version of a "salad". Which included some iceberg lettuce, a sliced tomato and two pickles. Yes. Pickles. Go figure. So I was shocked at all the food like omg that's amazing for 5.99. Man oh man. Those chicken wings taste like they were cooked in old grease and the corn came straight out some off brand can. Anyways, I felt horrible after I ate half. I wanted to smack myself lol. And I felt like I needed to detox or do a cleanse. read more

Triangle Deli - 5.99 but so not good :/ - Soul Food Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

This place serves Soulfood. I love that they were gloves. They also packs your plates with food, but I personally didn't think it was all that good read more

Wow! Everything you are looking for in delicious creole food for a great price. A true treasure.

Disgusting! Nice and clean business but the food isn't its finest. Mac and cheese wasn't cheesy at all. Just pasta. The cheese on top was inedible because it was hard. The corn was very tasty. The fish was cooked well but tasted like shrimp or something. Maybe the grease read more

Recommended by our uber driver. Lots of food options, but very terrible customer service. This is a place for the locals and tourists wouldn't know about it. So we expected great food. It's in a gas station and they have a huge selection, but the customer service makes the experience a terrible one. The food had potential, but was lacking in some areas. They do not have seating area so we had to eat in the car. read more

I didn't get a chance to take pictures of my hot sausage sandwich and fries because I ate it in record time! But this place is a gem. Don't let the fact that it's a gas station fool you. There's an entire kitchen with great home cook food inside. I'm still kicking myself for not trying the gumbo but my hot sausage sandwich was amazing . Made hot and fresh to order every time. My visits home to New Orleans always include a stop here. Next time I'm getting the gumbo! read more

Sometimes service can be undesirable, need shrimp in there meatloaf wrap it in bacon much better favor.

Never disappointed! Every time I'm home I get the exact same meal. Stuffed bell pepper is a MUST to try. Very meaty. And they have it all times of year other than thanksgiving lol. Now I won't be having the potato salad again. Seems the texture has changed. It's more of a mashed potato with too much relish. No bueno. But all in all everything else never disappoints read more

The line cooks were so disrespectful, I understand y'all were about to close within an hour but that does not give you all the right to have an attitude with the customers that ask questions. I was with a group of people that had never been there before so they had several questions even though I gave them a few suggestions prior to our arrival. The line cooks rolled their eyes and rolled their necks as they answered my friends questions nonchalantly. read more

Triangle Deli - Soul Food Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

I grew up hearing about this place before Katrina and since it has been re-opened most of its business has returned. This is the ultimate in cheap eats in NOLA. 7th ward locals have been eating at Triangle for decades and you can tell by how the food is prepared there are locals in the kitchen fixing the food. The hot plate specials all under $10 are fantastic and filling. This is New Orleans comfort food at its best. Dont look for frills here this is home cooking like most real New Orleanians eat. The daily specials reads like a playbook of how people eat here. They give you great local food and plenty of it for a great price. Tourists stay away. The only thing that keeps it from 5 stars is poor service but then again its still a gas station. read more

Holy heck this food is amazing. The best place to grab good to bring home. Specials every day and plenty of other food they have week-long. The plates are MASSIVE and are so cheap. The ladies working are very nice and are actually shocked when you tell them "that's enough". Located in a gas station is great because you can pick up drinks on your way out. read more

Always reliably good food and flavorful service too. The fried seafood , the stuffed peppers , the baked mac ... it's all delicious!

I have only gotten food from here on uber eats but I was pleasantly surprised with this place. The food taste great and home-cooked. The portions of sides are very generous. Only disappointment was that the chicken plate dinner only came with a small piece of chicken. Prices are very reasonable. I will suggest that they update their sides list on their uber eats page, just as a friendly reminder. :) read more

Love LOVE Love this place the only thing I'd the MAC n cheese isn't as cheesy as before still good though

I eat here at least once a week, this is a spot where you get more than your money worth of food. And great soul food !!!!! The menu changes daily and the stuff bell peppers are awesome !!!!! read more

First time trying this and I grew up here .....pretty good for the price. It was like $4.99 for a 8 piece combo with fries. That's pretty good...lol...especially if you broke and hungry. I wanted to take a pic.. but I ate it so fast...lol.. The menu is very affordable, and you get a lot of options for sides if you don't want fries. I will return!! read more

Huge portions, little price; shrimp and grits breakfast plate is delicious. This place don't look like much on the outside but don't be fooled the food is great. In town for Essence Fest and I'm mad that we didn't stop by sooner. Had breakfast and dinner two days in a row. The shrimp po boy was amazing. Next time we in NOLA will definitely be back! read more
