Server was very friendly! Chicken and andouille gumbo was good, although I like a thicker and darker gumbo. Shrimp Stew was special of the day (Tuesday), but wasn't very special. The broth was very thin, almost like broth. The shrimp was almost certainly frozen and farmed, not deveined, and cooked to the point of mushiness. I would NOT order this again. BTW, there is a seafood market right next door with fresh shrimp. There was a lengthy po-boy menu and that would probably have been a better option. read more

Good service and food for a local establishment Open for lunches during the week Our go to place for fast hot lunches and sandwiches

My daughter and I went there last week and made a food order to go, which was short lived. We sat at the table closest to the drink machine, and there it was, rat poop. All over the soda boxes and counter. We let them know and canceled our order. This is not sanitary and holds a health hazard. It was brought to the attention to the staff, but it was business as usual. read more

Amazingggg the food & service was greattt !!! I'll be returning very soon !!! If I could eat there every day I would lol

I found this place on Yelp, while staying in LaPlace. When I walked it, it seems diner-ish. There was a few tables the sit at. A couple older couples were there. I noticed Friday was fish Friday's. I got a plate to go. When I got home and opened my plate. I found 4 pieces of fish on a bed of French fries, with potato salad and toast. I did notice the toast was already prepared when it was plated. It was hard by the time I got to it. The potato salad was extremely bland. The fries were really good. The fish was THE BOMB!! There was enough for brunch and linner! read more

If you are a person who is huge on ambiance when dining then this place is probably not for you. However if you like a quality sammich then this is the spot! I've been here twice and both times that I have stopped in, I've been impressed. The 1st time I stopped in I got a Cuban sammich with onion rings. As I was waiting for my sandwich, I read a few articles on the wall about the history of the place. It turns out the owner is originally from Cuba so now I expect my sammich to be great. It did not disappoint. The Cuban had everything it is supposed to have; ham, pork, swiss, pickles and mustard pressed so that the sammich is hot and crisp. The only difference is this was on typical poboy style French bread. It was great! The second time I came in for a roast beef, ham and swiss poboy. The sammich was hot. cheese melted, the bread crisp and slightly chewy. It had just enough roast beef gravy to be flavorful without making the bread soggy. It was perfect! The place itself is nothing to look at. It's a hole in the wall if I'm being honest. The parking lot gets full at lunch time awfully quick and it can be hard to see when backing up onto Airline Hwy. Luckily there is a parking lot just east of the carwash next door that is much easier to get in and out of. If you are in Laplace and needing your Poboy fix, this is the place! read more

Muffuletta sandwich Seafood gumbo Loved the sandwich. We think it was their famous Cuban sandwich and they add olive tapenade . It was fabulous Seafood gumbo had great flavor. It only has some tiny shrimp with rice We enjoyed it The man working there was super nice. We got a delicious cheesecake slice to go We flew in from San Francisco and drove right here. It's about 30 minutes from the airport read more

Frisco Deli - Seafood Gumbo - Sandwiches Near Me - La Place, Louisiana

I've been getting their crawfish stew with a side of fried fish every Friday, since 2007. Yum

Coming back from New Orleans my group stopped for gas in La Place. We were hungry and asked locals for a good place to eat. What we were recommended was Frisco Deli. At first glance it doesn't seem much of a resturant and looks more like old mom and pop place, but when I placed my order I was amazed. The BBQ sandwich was one of the best sandwiches I had on my New Orleans trip. The wait time wasnt much and the food came to the table quick. If traveling to or from New Orleans I would recommend a stop at this restaurant for a bite to eat. read more

Great food in Laplace, cmon that's awesome. Keep up the great work, I know y'all been there for years. Red beans and cat fish are swinging. Check it out please read more

Red beans and rice and their muffuletta are top notch! Every Monday I know what I'll be having for lunch and at least once a week, I'll treat myself to the muffuletta at Frisco deli. Delicious. Obviously their po-boys are wonderful, too, but I can get a good one of those anywhere. Definitely do yourself a favor and pick up some food from this place! read more

This would be a great place for and episode of Divers, Drive-ins and Dives. It doesn't look like much from the street and the interior isn't much either. While I was there for lunch I think half the police department was having their lunch there as well. I had the roast beef Po Boy and it was one of the best I've ever had! WARNING! This is one messy sandwich so you will need to lean over the plate with elbows out and napkins within easy reach. I also enjoyed the hush puppies, one order includes ten pieces. All in all a great experience, I will be back. read more

These guys are super friendly and they serve good food. The mufallata is the best. It is huge, the bread is authentic, and the ingredients were generous. read more

The roast beef po-boy was amazing. The people are very friendly. The only thing i needed on my po-boy was a pinch of salt literally. Highly recommend you eat here. Yes its slightly expensive but it's worth it. read more

Fantastic family restaurant, it's been a local favorite for decades, absolute best Cuban sandwich around, very friendly owners & staff.

Ordered the shrimp poboy. The poboy had a decent amount of shrimp in it, not over stuffed like some reviewers mentioned. The bread used is similar to the one used by The Olde Tyme Grocery in Lafayette Louisiana. Kinda tough and chewy, apparently it's a thing. Shrimp were well cooked, they just didn't have any flavor. Okay food, decent service. read more

Recommended by me personally are you there often awesome combo every day hot lunches great power boys at reasonable prices good hospitality

Another small, family owned cajun eatery in LaPlace. This place is run by a cuban family and they have the cuban sandwich po boy to prove it. Generally speaking I prefer Mabile's po boys to Frisco, but there is one notable exception: the ham and cheese with roast beef gravy. It is exactly what it sounds like; a pressed ham and cheese with a decent amount of home made roast beef gravy (with little bits of roast beef) on it. This is a fantastic sandwich and I think more restaurants should offer things smothered in roast beef gravy. The plate lunches are what make Frisco as good a choice for lunch as Mabile's. Everything I've had here is good. The daily specials, the gumbo, the jambalaya, the lent specials, all of it. read more

The Cuban sandwich is amazing and the young girl at the front desk is a delight. Wish I could say the same for the wait staff. Overall, great food!! read more

This place does gumbo and po-boys better than any other place I've tried. I'm not sure what their secret is, but the word's gotten around town. It's not exactly a well-kept secret within La Place. At lunch time you may be forced to take your gumbo and po-boy to go because the place is PACKED! The oyster po-boy and shrimp gumbo are to die for. Beware: the portions are huge. A po-boy might be enough for two meals, and a bowl of gumbo is a large meal in itself. This place is homey and unpretentious. I have a feeling they've been doing traditional cajun deli food their way for decades. Had I not heard about the place from locals, I probably wouldn't have tried it on my own. I'm very glad I did, though. I wish they were open for dinner! :) read more

Been driving by this place for a couple of years. The parking lot, while not enormous, always seems to be full. The sign for the Cuban PB (Po Boy) always catches my eye. I have to try that place some day.. Friday, that day arrived. The parking lot holds maybe 10 - 12 cars. As usual, it is full. It's not helped by the foursome with their four cars saying their goodbyes. Finally, the hugs and kisses are over and spaces start appearing. Classic dumpy lunch place. Mismatched everything. Let's go with eclectic. Not big, seats maybe 30 comfortably. Clean. Seemed like everyone knew each other. Service is fast and the waitress was hustling. I was there for the Cuban PB and fries. I topped it off with a diet coke. A Cuban is not something that is done very well or very often in New Orleans. However, should someone make a Cuban, there is a local secret weapon that would enhance even a Cuban smuggled in from the home land - Zatarains Creole Mustard- the perfect Cuban condiment. The moment of truth, the plate arrives. Clearly, not a lot of effort on presentation. That's OK, I'm not here for culture, I'm here for the food. The verdict - luke warm french fries and a very average rendition of a Cuban - French bread was overly dry, virtually no pickle and, sadly, no Zatarains. Meat was OK. I will eventually get back here to try something else. I'm intrigued by the reviews singing the praises of their gumbo and other sandwiches. It will be tough to drive by Mabiles to get a po-boy here. Lunch was about $13.50 with a tip. Seems a little pricey. I'm giving this 2 stars based on my single visit. read more

My husband eats here almost every day and loves it.very good food and Pedro is very nice. The place isn't much but get your food to go if you want .You will not regret giving it a try. read more

A local recommended Frisco Deli when we wanted lunch at 3 pm on a Wednesday....a terrific discovery! Soft shell crab and catfish fried perfectly. Sweet potato fries crispy. Cheesecake light. Pedro Francisco, the 82-year Cuban owner (with his son, who was in the kitchen) was a delight. Kind of place strangers talk to one another! read more

Frisco Deli - the front of the restaurant - Sandwiches Near Me - La Place, Louisiana

The food and service are both very good. Recently their prices went up, they used to have the best prices in town but now on par with the others. They have reasonable daily specials. It is pretty crowded at lunchtime. read more

Holy Toledo was this a great stop. Simple, homemade and done very well. The special was red beans and rice, and while it looked outstanding, I decided to try a po boy. I went for the roast beef, ham and swiss. The roast beef was cooked in house, and this might be one of the best sandwiches I have ever eaten. Make sure you get it dressed! We also tried the muffalota, onion rings and potato salad. All were homemade and delicious. This is a must stop on your way to New Orleans! read more

What a great find in little ole LaPlace, LA. Hubby and I are reuniting with the area and were looking for good PoBoys. I order the shrimp, he had the fish. Both were seasoned well, hot with fresh French bread! Can't wait to try the Cuban sandwich next time. read more

I had the hot link Po'boy! It was great... slice good and with all the fixings! Perfect!

Excellent food for the price! Love their cubano sandwiches and their Monday and Wednesday special for fried fish, beans and rice.

Immediately after Hurricane Katrina I was stationed in a warehouse nearby helping out with the Red Cross. We drove by this place several times until I couldn't stand it any longer and I made my co-workers stop for lunch. It was the best move during that whole 3 weeks! We ended up have a meal there just about everyday after that. Their red beans and rice were excellent - the catfish was too. And the couple who ran the place at that time (don't know if they're still there or not) were the best and treated us like family. One night they provided a huge pot of red beans, rice and other wonderful food to our group for free as a thank you. When can I go back?!?! read more

Very rude!! After placing an order, one of our staff asked if she could have her french fry's on the side instead of on her Seafood plate and he stated "this is not burger king or mcdonalds, this is a restaurant! You can't have everything your way!" He was extremely rude and should not treat customers this way. There were several ways he could have said and/or handled this situation. Therefore, we cancelled our order and will not be returning for business, anymore! read more
