Located on West Metairie, Comeback Inn is a great family restaurant. You order at the counter and then pickup at the window in the dining room. Their menu is large with dinners, poboys, sides and sandwiches. Their prices are very reasonable for the quality of food. The dining room is a nice size and many tables with fountain drinks and refills. We had the roast beef poboy and sweet potato fries. The roast beef was good but lacked salt. The sweet potato fries were amazing. Nice cut and fried perfectly. My granddaughter had the children's spaghetti and meatball and it was a large helping. We also had a meatball poboy which was also good. This is a nice family restaurant serving old style New Orleans food. You can't beat the prices. read more

An unpretentious laid back neighborhood restaurant that has been serving this blue collar area of Metry/Kenner for generations with local and classic American dishes like grandma used to make. Roast Beef and shrimp po-boys, red beans and rice, gumbo, platters and sides, the menu is extensive and most all dishes are good examples of how locals prepare them. It's counter service, serve your drinks and pick up your lunch at the window when called. Daily specials should not be ignored, and they make very good roast beef. read more

Came here for lunch during lent and I am so glad I did. I got the shrimp on bun and it was overfilled with shrimp! Def a win. The sweet potato fries were delicious as well. The kids menu portions are HUGE as well. I cannot wait to come back! read more

Come Back Inn - Shrimp on bun - American Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

As a regular family who has frequented this establishment for years, we are incredibly disappointed with the lack of accountability and poor service we recently experienced. We placed a phone order, specifically confirming each item, yet upon returning home, realized items were missing from our bag. When we called to request a refund for the missing items--given that our food would be cold by the time we could drive back to retrieve them--the night manager refused stating it's their policy and that she didn't make the policy. It is unacceptable that the burden of the restaurant's mistake is placed entirely on the customer, forcing us to drive back while our food gets cold rather than providing a simple refund. To make matters worse, the lettuce served with our meal was old and brown. The management displayed zero customer service skills and showed absolutely no concern for their error, ultimately making it clear that they do not value loyal, long-term patrons. We have decided to take our business elsewhere, and I would strongly advise others to avoid this establishment. Find a new night manager that can resolve restaurant mistakes that benefits the customer instead of the establishment. read more

Come Back Inn - Old Lettuce & Tomato Salad - American Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

I used to live in the area and often went to eat here. Now when we come to town, we go here and I always order the catfish po boy. I was looking forward to eating it last night and it was horrible! Looks like they are using a flour breading or something. It was also bland. I couldn't eat it. Thankful for the French fries which were awesome. I was so disappointed. Don't know it if I can go back. Another person at our table ordered the shrimp and it had the same light colored, bland breading. They need to go back to the old recipe!! Can't comment on service. You order at the counter and they call your name to pick it up. read more

We live in the area and pick up from Come Back Inn several times/month. The place is BUSY, and the parking lot is often packed. If you're eating in, this is an extremely casual place with the TV usually on a sports event. We have some items we pick up often - the catfish dinner; meatballs & spaghetti; poboys (their bread is really good) - especially the shrimp and bbq beef; lasagna; fried chicken; salads. My husband raves about the Italian salad, but I don't eat those meats. Surprisingly enough, their pizza is really good. They don't offer a ton of toppings, but my vegetarian daughter and I really like getting a pizza smothered with green and black olives. I personally didn't care for the gumbo, which seemed greasy to me. And the barbecued chicken is just chicken with bbq sauce slathered on instead of baked onto it. They do have a really good corn and crab soup which they sell on Fridays. I like it so much I buy 2 containers at a time to keep one in the freezer. read more

Everything good! Can't go wrong with the Shrimp poboy! Onion rings are a must. Hot sausage poboy is a killa!

Great food. Friendly staff. Been going for years and the quality remains good. Looking forward to returning with family. read more

The only thing that should be coming back in that place right now is tomatoes. Apparently there is a tomato famine according to come back in news network. Yet, what's really happening is the owner is saying tomatoes are too expensive. So the owner is running a sandwhich shop, and doesn't want to spend more money on tomatoes. How can a business be that hurting they run out of tomatoes. If it's an ordering problem, just go to the damn store and buy tomatoes. Don't tell someone you have tomatoes and then allow them to take a sandwhich home and then it's just lettuce and meat. Then they tell me "we need the sandwhich" if I wanted my money back for there false advertising. "They will have tomatoes on your sandwhich." Good one read more

We got the crawfish cheese fries... amazing! Roast beef po boy was delicious as well. I didn't get a picture of that, I ate it too fast. read more

Excuse my accent because I'm from ny! I visited for a short time and wanted some authentic NOLA food. Someone told me come here, it's not far from the airport hotels. I wasn't blown away from the food. I actually added salt to the gumbo. It does have an authentic New Orleans vibe. The onion rings were delicious and the service was great. The waiter was very helpful to us visitors. It's nothing fancy, just a food spot you can dine in at. It's worth trying. read more

Casual New Orleans Dining. Cute place for a casual family meal. Very busy. Order at counter and number is called to get food at window. Great oyster Poboy, muffalata, onion rings & red beans and rice with pork chop. Reasonably priced! read more

Come Back Inn is a fast paced restaurant with delicious food takeout or dine in. With the main entrée comes a small side or romain salad, I think, or a small Italian salad. The small Italian salad is like eating the ingredients on a muffaletta sandwich without the meat. That's how good it is. You really have to like olives. I've had the open faced roast beef sandwich, red beans & rice, Italian sausage & spaghetti, poor boys, accelerate, etc. You name it, I've had it. It's all very good. read more

My husband and I visited because we heard their po boys were really good- especially the bread, but we were a little disappointed. The bread was a little too crunchy and it had sesame seeds on top, which I normally wouldn't mind, but they were a little too toasted and gave the sandwich a burnt taste. I got the shrimp po' boy and the shrimp reminded me of popcorn shrimp. My husband got the roast beef po' boy and said it was okay, but he was surprised it didn't come with a side of au jus. I will say their remoulade sauce was good and so were their fries. read more

Pretty good food, though I wasn't a fan of the potato salad. They were relatively quick, even though it was super crowded. The only real drawback is how loud it gets. But I'd eat there again if in Metairie. read more

Roast Beef Po-boy, dressed with gravy, awesome. The first time I went was for that but they threw a mind scrambler on me, Thursdays special is beef stew. I had to go for that. It was great. Went back a couple days later for the Po-boy. If I'm in the area again, I'm stopping here!! read more

Food was good, as it has been for the last 4 decades I've been eating here. The service is OK, the ladies at the counter are nice. The ambiance is typical New Orleans po-boy shop. TVs, neon beer signs, and Saints stuff. read more

Roast Beef Po-boy - 7/10, pretty solid, beware of taking it to go, it'll be cold and soggy. Muffuletta - 7/10, again, pretty solid, a little skimpy on meats. Cheeseburger - 0/10, the worst I've ever had, do not eat. Hot Sausage on Bun - 5/10, not that great. French Fries 1/10 - - they recently changed, were okay, now they're horrible and often stink like seafood. read more

I love this little place I've been coming here since the 1960s it's one of my favorite lunch spots and Nola. The seafood gumbo is very good with Crab ousters and Shrimp they're Italian dishes are excellent and one of these days I'm actually going to try the muffalotta! read more

Food quality is very high and always consistent I have been eating there for over 40 years. My family always leaves full with leftovers for later. Best roast beef Po-Boys in greater New Orleans without a doubt read more

The best mulatta you can ask for I've never went there and haven't enjoyed it. Very good place to eat.

Very mom and pop...I ordered the chicken fried steak and it hit the spot! I would return to try skmetkng else.

I tried it for the first time in 2012, we have only tried the muffalatta and PoBoys and we are never disappointed, great food but call ahead specially on Fridays and weekends. Good food, there will be no regrets. Enjoy read more

Never been, but our friends sent us a couple of muffulettas from Louisiana to Alabama. They were DELICIOUS!. I have bookmarked this place and will make a visit the next time I am in Metairie. read more

I loved everything about our lunch, the people, the counter servers, and of course the meals. I had the 1/2 fried chicken dinner and hubby had the 3meat pizza. It was hot and delicious!! Only negative... CNN on TV read more

I just recently ate here for the first time. Their roast beef poboy was one of the best I've had! It's an order at the counter style restaurant, but workers were not super friendly in the little interaction we had with them. I would still recommend because the food was perfect for when you want a home cooked meal (that you didn't cook in your own home). read more

Food and service can be counted on to be consistently good. Restaurant is very clean and parking is good as there is a lot behind the restaurant as well as in front. A bit of a problem right now with road work but worth the hassle for the food and friendly employees. read more

After we sat down at a sticky table, that was one of the few cleared, we had to wipe up the floor. The roast beef sandwiches were ok, but the hamburger and onion rings were horrible. The women's bathroom was very dirty. We've been there in the past and enjoyed it, but won't be going back again after this experience. read more

Biggest fall in restaurant history I've eaten here 1000 times but last few have been TERRIBLE. They probably should shut down and redo entire place from building to cooks! I've been dissatisfied with everything from red beans to pork chops to crawfish pasta. Such a shame to go from my weekly go to too the worst in Metairie. read more

Went there today ordered a cheeseburger Poboy the half I requested mustard only advising the order taker that I was allergic to mayonnaise she said no problem upon receiving the order it was fully dressed with mayonnaise lettuce tomato as well.I asked to make me another burger she said no problem within two minutes they bought it back that was too fast to have cooked another what they did was wipe the dressings off with a towel put it on another piece of French bread and squeezed mustard on it.They were willing to take a chance on making me sick after being advised I can't have mayonnaise.I told them to refund me gave them back their sandwich I will never return there dining room wasn't very clean dirty dishes on several tables. read more

Portions were huge, enough for 2 people. Chicken was good, just a little over cooked. Fries were very good. Shrimp was AWFUL!!!! We live in a city with a natural resource of shrimp. Why serve no local shrimp to locals? Completely inedible, threw the whole thing away. Could be a really nice place but will never know because I will never be back. read more

Come Back Inn - Idk what to say but OMG THIS WAS SO GOOD!!! hands down a 10 in my book.. - American Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

Love this place. We come all the time for the fried chicken. Totally worth the wait. Also a great place to get poboys and muffulettas! We pick up from here a couple times a month easy. We've even swung by just to grab some onions rings before! #noshame haha Hole in the walls always have the best food!! read more

This place has been here forever and I can see why! Although this was only my first time coming here, I was thoroughly suprised. I got the grilled shrimp salad and seafood gumbo. The gumbo was SO good and flavorful. The salad was also delicious and had a ton of shrimp in it. I personally opted for their seafood options as opposed to the more basic American food options and that seems to be the way to go with this place. Overall, it's nothing fancy but it gets the job done...You just walk up to the counter to order and you're called over to get your food very shortly after. This is a great restaurant for those who want a quick bite to eat in a very laid-back and inviting atmosphere. read more

Come Back Inn - Grilled Shrimp Salad! - American Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

Sticker shock is real!! I've always enjoyed this neighborhood poboy shop. Their seeded bread is to die for as are their muffulettas (one of the best in the city, IMO), onion rings, and fried seafood. I moved and haven't had the chance to eat there recently but was in the area and decided to get a regular size ham and Swiss, dressed. I have to say that I was surprised when the counter help said it'll be $13.60!! Deli meat and cheese on a French bread with lettuce and tomato. I know post-Covid and current inflation has driven everything up but I will really have to have a craving to shell out that kind of money for a ham poboy next time. read more
