Broad and Banks Seafood is a truly local establishment. You won't find tourists here except those most willing to venture into real New Orleans. The sandwiches and gumbo were recommended to me so I tried the gumbo which did not disappoint. It's a little thinner than most you'll find but the flavor is great. There is clearly an Asian influence in the cooking because you'll find fried rice, egg rolls, and lo mein next to gumbo, fried chicken, and red beans. It's truly worth a stop if you want a glimpse of the real taste of local NOLA.
boiled shrimp and potatoes were so good. potatoes were soaked through and spicy. I knew i wouldn’t be there long so i parked on the side street.. there is construction in the area, but nothing they can do about that its a city thing
The food here is delicious. Especially the gumbo 🥘. Next time I will definitely try the steak with rice and gravy plate.
