After hearing from several people that we "had to check out Darrell's," we finally decided to hit…read moreit up for lunch. We arrived just a couple minutes after their 11 a.m. opening, and the place was already packed, a good sign in itself. Luckily, with only three of us, the hostess got us seated at a table right away. The exterior isn't much to look at, but stepping inside tells a different story. The interior has a sports bar meets old school diner vibe, with decor that gives the whole place a nostalgic, lived-in charm. We all decided on the Darrell's Special sandwich with jalapeño mayo, and it did not disappoint. Our waitress was fantastic the whole meal, constantly checking in, keeping our drinks filled, and making sure we didn't need anything else. Despite how busy the place was, our sandwiches came out in a surprisingly short time. The sandwich itself is a beast! A toasted, loaded bun stacked with ham, turkey, and roast beef (which I hear is made in-house), all topped with roast beef gravy, American, Swiss, and provolone cheeses, lettuce, mustard, and your choice of regular or jalapeño mayonnaise, of course we had the Jalapeño Mayo. The first bite reminded me of a warm French dip, but that impression quickly gave way to layers of different meat flavors, rounded out by the subtle heat of the jalapeño mayo. It practically melted in my mouth. Honestly, I wanted to finish the whole thing, but I didn't want to need to be rolled out of the building, so I boxed up the second half and enjoyed it again for dinner. Great food, great service, and now I understand what all the buzz was about.

I visited during a recent trip to LC to see a show since I missed the performer in Houston. I…read morearrived at peak time on Saturday it seemed since the parking lot was packed, and once inside, also packed. It took a few mins to clean the last open table. The menus are on the table but you really don't need a menu here since there are only a few items. Everyone comes here for po-boys obviously and they have a few to choose from. The top 2 choices are the most common, the special and the surf and turf. To me, what makes a good po-boy, is the bread....like many other sandwiches. If you have great bread, you're usually making a good sandwich. I tried the small special, while the rest of the table tried either the special or surf and turf. They don't have a formal kids menu, but they just have either PB&J or grilled cheese. We tried the grilled cheese. My fav ended up being the surf and turf due to it being cleaner to eat and more variety of taste and texture between the bread. I liked the special, but I forgot to ask the server to remove the American cheese, so it made it taste funny and would have been better without it.

Stopped in to grab some po-boy's for lunch I got the 1/2 Papa's Special with jalapeño mayonnaise,…read moreit seemed familiar even though this was my first visit. There is another restaurant nearby that is similar that I've been going to for year's it's always been my favorite but I must say Cooler's Ice House really out did themselves. Lean Roast Beef, Ham and Turkey soaked in their house made au jus, dressed with 3 cheeses, lettuce, mustard and that delicious jalapeño mayo on a super crusty roll that is source out of Lafayette, Louisiana I'm told, the bread is definitely fifty percent of the sandwich's quality and taste. There were six of us in our party and the table service here was outstanding, Madison our server was on top of everything throughout our visit here. They weren't very busy when we arrived but quickly fill up as time went on - I thought the kitchen was a little slow but everything was well executed and delicious - no complaints from anyone at our table. This is definitely a place I'd return to and it's likely I'd repeat my order exactly, there's no sandwich that comes close to this deliciousness anywhere that I've experienced near my home in Florida - it's great when even the locals whom have access to this place treats it like something special...

Came here as an alternative to Darrell's. Got the brisket bread and it was legitimately great…read more I ordered the equivalent to a Darrell's special and to be honest... I liked it more than I did a Darrell's special. This is my new po-boy go to in Lake Charles!
