Been a lot of buzz about The Joint lately and was in the mood for bbq so had to check it out…read more Wasn't sure about parking, but needn't have worried. There was tons of parking all around the park across the street. Inside had something like 6 or 8 tables and a bar to sit at. They also have outdoor seating. You order at the register and they bring it out to you. I ordered the 2 meat 1 side combo. They didn't have burnt ends at the time, which I'm still dying to try. Instead I went with ribs and chicken with Mac and cheese. I've been getting used to bbq places bringing you small wimpy ribs, but this says two ribs on the menu it's more like three and some change they're so big. These ribs were so juicy, perfect amount of char, tons of flavor. Throw some of the table bbq to dip in and wow. Same with the chicken juicy, with a light crispy skin, and also even better with the bbq. Mac and cheese was also great. It was super cheesy and had a nice kick to it.

I have heard nothing but good things about the Joint so I was excited to try it. I dined inside and…read moreloved the decor all over the wall. I ordered the brisket burnt ends and the ribs with a side of baked beans. The food came out pretty fast. The burnt ends were delicious. Tender and seasoned well I also loved the bbq sauce. The ribs were okay. They were Luke warm so they got cold pretty fast and were over cooked. I enjoyed the baked beans and they give you a hearty portion. Overall pretty good I would definitely go back to get another order of burnt ends.

I have had poor-boys here over past 15 years. Ambiance is old school. Cash only is the most important thing. Great variety food at good prices. I love the roast beef, and the bologna and salami. You can create your own poorboy. A note 1/2 is plenty whole can feed a hungry person or shared by 2 average appetites. Also know they have good variety of cold beverages and beer other adult beverages. Classic soda flavors.

Service was great- seems like they are a busy joint but could still manage the flow. They also seemed used to GF requests. The ambiance is cute- definitely an eclectic NOLA spot. Anyone would enjoy a sandwich here- however, I want my GF peeps to benefit because this is hard to find for us!!!

Sometimes, you just want a good ole hearty everything-in-one-bite sandwich. Ike's is the place for…read morethat sandwich. I got the Hunter Pence, and while I'd say it's one of their more "simple" sandwiches (turkey, avacado, bacon, and fixings) it was delish! I love that you can add roasted onions and peppers. Also, as an anti-mayo gal, the "dirty sauce" aka smokey aioli is a must, lol. Just get it light. The staff was nice and the restaurant is cute and welcoming. My only less-than-positive feedback is that it's pricey. For $19, this unfortunately could not be a regular lunch (or dinner) run for me. Because while the sandwhiches are hearty, they aren't super big..most people could eat pretty much the entire thing in one sitting. But I get it..know your worth, Ike's! This will have a to be a treat spot for me, lol. But I enjoyed.

There's no improving upon a neighborhood cafe this special. My pistachio iced latte was amazing…read more Fab pistachio flavor and it wasn't too sweet. Similarly my Vietnamese coffee, called cå phé sü då, was delicious and not too sweet. The cashier was perfectly sweet too. I'll take my coffee with a double shot of kindness any day. The pastries are great too. They catered our event across the street, which is how I got turned onto it. There's seating inside along with a comfortable neighborhood vibe and a couple of tables out front. Clearly a chill place to hang for whatever purpose. No matter where you live, you wish there was a place like this in your neighborhood. Yeah, all the Elite Yelpers who've reviewed it are a tipoff for certain.

I don't get boba tea often, but this is definitely my new choice in the city! First and foremost,…read morethe location is perfect. The decor on the inside reflects the brand well. The staff were also friendly and helpful in terms of navigating the menu. I tried three different teas: lavender oat, vanilla rose, and jasmine. I got tapioca in all of them, and it was cooked perfectly! The lavender oat was so fragrant. I don't think I've ever had a flower anything that tasted so potent. It was delish! The vanilla rose was probably my favorite. It was the perfect amount of sweetness, and the vanilla balances the rose out so well. The jasmine was refreshing with such a light flavor. I really enjoyed my visit to Moon Garden and will definitely be going back.

First time visiting Calulet on Dauphine Street and wow--what a great find. I stopped by for happy…read morehour and live music, and the ambiance was absolutely on point. The space is spacious, open, airy, and filled with good energy--perfect for unwinding after a long day. Happy hour is solid with a nice variety of drink options, great prices and the live music featuring Teena May really sets the mood without overpowering conversation. Now let's talk about the real star of the show: the chicken sandwich. WHOA. This is a must-have. So good it deserves its own moment. Crispy, flavorful, and unforgettable--I'm already planning my return just for that sandwich alone. Between the vibes, happy hour specials, and live music, this spot checks all the boxes. Definitely will be back (and yes, ordering that chicken sandwich again). Elite-approved

Unbeatable food, unbeatable vibe…read more This place has a dedicated gluten-free fryer! What a pleasure, to have a decadent, fried chicken sandwich (and not feel at all ill, zero cross-contamination). This baby is huge, too--more than enough for one meal if you're ravenous, probably two if you're not. The Brussels sprouts are crispy and well-seasoned, as are the fries (generous portions there too, various options for house-made seasonings and condiments). Happy hour specials are unbeatable. There's live music every night--chill enough on a Monday to bring my laptop and get some work done. Bartenders are great and unexpectedly friendly. Love the spacious, curated groupings of chairs and sofas, which means you can have an intimate gathering in public, or, like me, have some space to yourself. The only downside is that the owner is 86ing the restaurant/bar part and moving to an events-only space. What a bummer for Bywater! RUN over there before it closes, people. Maybe we can flood it with business and change his mind. ;)

I LOVE bagels. It's a well known fact about me. Small Mart makes exceptional bagels, and the most…read morecreative bagel sandwiches. I ordered the chum bagel which pairs lox with apple slices. It has to be one of my favorite breakfast items I've had this week in Nola. One more note-they have many vegetarian and vegan options! Typically I am neither, but I think vegetarians and vegans would find a dish to love here. This shop is small, but there is lots of seating indoors and outside. You order food at one bar, and the coffee at the other. Everyone here is so personable and was so kind to chat with me about the menu when I was torn between many options. They have a bathroom that was very clean. I can tell the food and drinks here are made with love. It is a little walk from the French Quarter, but it is a walk well worth it.

The line stretched to the door, but we were out and headed to Jackson Square with our sandwich in less than 20 minutes. (So much better than sitting in the deli!). Inside you'll find a few spaces to eat your sandwich, with some chairs. The dining space is kind of an afterthought. Definitely take it to go and watch some street musicians. The bread holds up to the cold cuts and olive tapenade. We ordered 1.5 sandwiches and didn't even crack open the half sandwich, 2 adults, 2 teenagers, and one kid. We also shared a pistachio cheesecake, which was delicious. I'd eat this sandwich any day. So. Good.

I'm a New Orleans native living in Atlanta, who has worked in the service industry for 15 years. I…read morenever ever write reviews because I believe they hurt small businesses and feeds the egos of the ignorant, but that being said this place pissed me the fuck off with their service. I come to central deli whenever I'm with someone not from New Orleans due to the fact their muffuletta is quintessential! I would like to reiterate nothing was wrong with the food , great food purely with the lady taking orders. I got a classic half muffuletta and a "glass" San pellegrino. The lady then told me open glass is prohibited in New Orleans , I retorted with "o really I didn't know that , since when?" Before I could finish The lady then yelled with "SINCE FOREVER, IM SORRY YOUVE BEEN TO BAD BARS WHERE THEY SERVE YOU GLASS ITS BEEN ILLEGAL SINCE THE 50s" which isn't true the city changed the law in 2001. She then proceeded to open my glass bottle even though I told her I didn't want it open, so I the asked if I could get another one since she was in rage mode and didn't understand that she just contradicted herself. As I asked for the second San Pellegrino, she then takes the first one and goes "NO PROBLEM THANKS FOR THE FREE DRINK", and starts to drink the San Pellegrino infront of me as I check out, making thirst quenching noises like "AHH". As I leave she can't help but remind me for her free drink again. I'm pretty sure the management witness this whole situation and I hope they do something about, that lady doesn't realize what hospitality is and needs to be fired. I did nothing to her and I bet I wasn't the first she has blow up on. But in my eyes absolutely unacceptable.
