Hey man sometimes the best food comes out of a rundown hole in the wall joint from sweaty,greasy cooks with questionable moral fortitude serving up hot deliciousness..I needed an authentic New Orleans Po Boy and these guys did not disappoint. I got exactly what I wanted and it was delicious..just don't expect a fine dining experience here no sir just good food served up on a paper plate the way god intended..I read a few of the bad reviews below and I have one question...Who goes to New Orleans with a shrimp allergy? LoL
Stopped in for breakfast and ate there every morning after, during our stay. After spending $26 per person for a mediocre, all you can eat breakfast buffet in a 5 Star hotel, Johnny's Po-boys $5 breakfast special was an amazing delight. Food was ample and great. Service was friendly and helpful.
The best fried chicken. The mac and cheese and the best gumbo.
My fav place to eat when I am in New Orleans... Absolute best place to eat!
Classic NOLA feel. Great employees and the best PO BOY I have every eaten. The alligator sausage and gumbo soup were truly delicious.
A must dining experience!
This is just a small sandwich shop, but a fantastic product. I shared a table with people I didn't know which made it more fun. The muffaletta seen below was the best I've ever had. There's a lot of Sandwich options here. I tasted the gumbo which was very good.
It’s been there a long time and shows its age but still a damn good poboy. The oyster was amazing. Everyone was friendly and I will always go here for lunch when in New Orleans.
If you’re looking for a classic po boy, this is a great spot. Nothing fancy, just great food. The cashier will welcome you with a “baby” and “sweetheart”. The local game will be on the TV. The bread will be flakey and crisp on your overstuffed po boy. And the soda from the fountain will be refreshing. Perfect for a tasty, quick lunch. Enjoy!
For a good New Orleans Po-Boy in the French Quarter it is hard to beat Johnny’s Po-Boy. They offer great sandwiches but also very good breakfast and local plate lunches. The lines can get pretty long, but they move fairly quickly. I find for a reasonable meal in an old local favorite, give Johnny’s a try. I have never had a bad meal here.
An absolute JEM of a find! This is a small restaurant in the French Quarter, with cheerful staff, efficiently serving, fresh hot food! The portions are ENORMOUS, seriously, take a look around when you come in, as light eaters may want to share, until you taste how fantastic these Po-Boys are.
We had the alligator sausage and catfish Po-Boys all dressed with lettuce, tomato and dressing. The sausage was flavourful, tender and was not too fatty. The catfish was piping hot, battered with a light and crispy batter that did not take away from the tenderness or flavour of the fish. The bread had an ideally crunchy crust and chewy interior that held the whole sandwich together perfectly.
This is a must go to place, take cash and prepare to enjoy!
