Food Loved that there were three vegan options to choose from, we got the tofu and the cauliflower. The tofu was good and we liked how flavorful the Thai bbq sauce was and the bread was nice and warm. The cauliflower was perfectly matched, only wish it had more romesco sauce on it and that the cauliflower was a tad bit warmer. The hot sauce on the table was a nice touch. Service Order at the counter and they would bring your food out to you. There are napkins and utensils against the wall for you to grab so it is largely self-service and no frills. Ambiance: Order at the counter and grab a table. Nothing too crazy and no line at all in the middle of the day on a Wednesday. I could see this place being busy, but it was not bad at all. read more

So glad to find vegetarian/vegan poboys options here! We went with Thai BBQ Tofu and Cauliflower poboy. Both were fresh, great and tasteful. I am not a fan of BBQ flavor in general but I liked it here as it was not overpowering. The tofu was soft inside but yet nicely grilled. The Cauliflower poboy didn't look appetizing but the filling is very nicely flavored. I could even taste smokiness in the cauliflower filling. And the baguette is soft inside amazing here - soft, fresh and the best I have ever had! Service was super quick. Additional star for a clean bathroom. read more

Really great place to get some non-standard but very delicious poboys in the French Quarter. They have two locations but this is for the larger one on Dauphine. They've got quite a few poboy options but not so large a menu so as to be overwhelming. They actually have several vegetarian options that look really good, too. Since I'd already tried a shrimp poboy earlier in my trip, I went for the beef debris, which is another twist on a local favorite. Instead of the typical dressing of lettuce/tomato/mayo, this one's got onions and pickled green beans, banana peppers, and horseradish. The roast beef is ridiculously tender and juicy, and the bread is excellent. The toppings are great, although I do wish there were more peppers and horseradish -- I felt it needed more of that to balance out the richness of the beef. I also had a side of greens, which were cooked and seasoned perfectly. Service is friendly and food comes out quick. Definitely worth a visit, along with also visiting some of your more traditional poboy shops. read more

Def one of my fave things I've eaten in New Orleans so far. Had the pork belly and beef debris. Both were super juicy and flavorful. My preference has to be the beef debris for sure- we may go back again because it was so good. Def a quick and easy lunch that isn't crazy expensive and is delish. read more

I thought the sandwiches here were pretty tasty. All had tons of flavor and very delicious! Initially, I thought there was a fried shrimp po boy, but it was grilled. My favorite was the grilled shrimp with pickled carrots and daikons. It reminded me of a Vietnamese banh mi. The beef with green beans sounded interesting, but it wasn't too bad. The service was quick. You order at the counter and once your food is ready, they'll bring it to you. I thoroughly enjoyed my quick meal here. read more

Needed a quick bite. Quick it was. Cozy, no frills place. I like that. Small menu. I also like that. Ordered. Paid. Grabbed my Coke. Sat down. About a minute later my poboy was on my table. I got the black beer braised beef debris. Great flavor! Add some hot sauce and I was happy. Easy. No frills. Friendly people. Great sandwich. read more

Killer Poboys - Black beer braised beef debris poboy! Delicious. - Sandwiches Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Admittingly, it isn't easy to find a veggie po' boy. It is, after all, a sandwich with a meat or seafood filling. This place, however, flips the script on our stereotypical definitions of po' boys as we can find vegetarian alternatives on the signature New Orleans French bread roll. That made me feel like I got a bit of the experience. The setup is fairly simple as you can either eat in or take it to go. Maybe about 20 people can sit inside. Nothing extravagant except for the diversity of options for vegetarians. My eyes were set on the Thai BBQ Tofu po' boy. This actually reminded me of the Vietnamese sandwiches I can get from NYC. Specifically at Num Pang. The tofu was excellent and the po' boy was nice and soft, but not doughy. Loved every bite I ate! Would definitely recommend it to others! read more

Quick, convenient, filling, fairly priced & delicious! You order at the counter and within minutes you'll have a delicious Po'Boy set in front of you. I came here a couple weeks apart and had the shrimp the first time and pork belly the second time. Definitely prefer the shrimp, it's that fresh firm slightly sweet shrimp fresh off the boat the additional topping are perfect. I did try the collard greens which were okay, the poboy was definitely the best. The pork belly itself was tasty but I think the shrimp melded better with the sauce and toppings used. Slap some Louisiana hot sauce on there and you're set. There's a variety of options for sodas & beer/spritzers. It's a no frills but clean, quick spot. Worth coming back to. read more

I stopped into Killer Poboys while staying nearby for business. I searched Yelp and found Killer Poboys. I visited and glad I did. The interior of the restaurant is small but clean and adequate if you want to dine in. I found the overhead menu easy to navigate. However there is a discrepancy with some Poboys and whole grain bread options which are listed on the website but not the menu. I ordered the collared greens and Thai BBQ tofu. Both were good. Great flavors, but the bread was just ok. I would have preferred whole grain bread but I digress. The service was good though. I'd visit again as they have some tasty looking plant based options. read more

So here is the deal. This place does NOT serve your traditional poboys. However, if you want a delicious poboy with a vietnamese twist, then this place is where you need to land! We ordered 3 with the understanding that we would share it amongst us 4 and then hit the pavement soon thereafter in search of a traditional poboy to share. We ordered: seared shrimp, ham and pimiento cheese and a beef debris. Seared shrimp was deliciously seasoned and came with banh mi style veggies. The ham and cheese was very reminiscent of the mexican hot dogs we get in California. The beef debris was a chopped beef style sando. All three were delicious. Dining area is small. Service was hospitable and very patient as we decided what we wanted. read more

Stopped by Killer PoBoys for a late lunch. These aren't traditional po'boys--they lean more toward a bánh mì style. We found the beef sandwiches to be overly salty and too soggy, while the pork belly and tofu options were more enjoyable. The bread on my sandwich was very crusty--almost too much so, as it ended up irritating the roof of my mouth. Next time, we'd likely opt for a more traditional po'boy spot. read more

My friend Zack W. and I wanted an easy dinner in the French Quarter, and Killer Poboys fit the bill. It was the perfect place to stop after a nice stroll through the neighborhood, fast and casual, but with alcohol and stellar food. I think we were the only customers when we walked in, around 5:30 on a Saturday. There was one woman working the cashier, and she was nice and helpful. I do wish we'd been warned that one of the beers we grabbed from the fridge was non-alcoholic. Zack didn't notice until he had it open, and promptly threw it away to get another. Meanwhile, I had a can of Gnarly Barley Jucifer IPA, a refreshing local hazy that went well with the weather and po' boys. The menu was straightforward, with about a dozen sandwiches and a few salads and sides. The po' boys here are not traditional, but they stick to the ribs like classic New Orleans fare. We shared the seared gulf shrimp, the glazed pork belly, and a side of the smothered greens. Three for three, truly delicious. The shrimp were plump and snappy, piled onto a white roll with banh mi accompaniments: pickled carrots, daikon radish, cucumbers, sriracha aioli, and fresh herbs. The pork belly was heavier, sweeter, with a rum and ginger glaze and finished with lime cabbage slaw and garlic aioli. I'm not sure what went into those smothered greens, but they were outstanding. This was a deeply satisfying meal, one I'd highly recommend if you want a quick bite in the French Quarter. I'd go back immediately if I lived in New Orleans, and would love to make a return visit next time I'm in town. read more

Delish!! There are a few locations spread around NoLa and we happened upon this one while exploring the French quarter. We did hear about Killer Poboys before we came and decided to stop in for a quick bite. The seared shrimp is the most popular and I understand why! The shrimp were cooked perfectly, the bread was perfection, topped with a delicious sauce and the pickled carrots So glad this was our first stop for food, and it set the bar pretty high. Like most places it's small with just a few tables and order from the counter. All in all, when in New Orleans a seared shrimp poboy here is a must for sure! read more

What a treat as a vegetarian that I have three options to pick from for a Poboy in New Orleans. Seriously I go everywhere not expecting vegetarian items. This is a quaint shop with lots of charm. There are some tables and chairs if you want to escape the heat, or you can take your item to-go. I ordered the... Roasted Sweet Potato $12 Spiced Roasted Sweet Potato with Braised Collard Greens, Black Eyed Pea and Pecan Spread It was good. I ate half and saved the other half when I was at the airport the next day. I would go back and try a different veggie poboy. Let us know what you think of Killer Poboys? read more

Came here for their shrimp po boy and like other reviewers mentioned, it's very similar to a banh mi with lots of pickled veggies. I wish there was more sauce rather than the pickle juice which made the bread a bit soggy. The shrimp was nicely fried and tasted fresh. We got in right before closing and had to order to go but were able to take it to Jackson square nearby to sit and eat. read more

This restaurant is Michelin recommended and yes it's delicious and I enjoyed my shrimp poboy, but I wanted the unhealthy kind. This one tasted healthy & I appreciated it. So if that's what you're looking for definitely make your way here. (I did make my way around to the unhealthy side of things) Overall the customer service was great and there wasn't a seat open but it moved along quickly. Also this Gin & Tonic was delicious! read more

Stopped by Killer Poboys for lunch, and it did not disappoint. I ordered the grilled shrimp poboy, which was definitely more bahn mi than a traditional poboy, but was absolutely delicious. It came packed with pickled carrots and daikon, the shrimp were huge and perfectly seasoned, and the bread was soft and tender with just a hint of sweetness. They also have a huge vegetarian selection, which looked fantastic, even though I went for seafood this time. The shop is small and almost every table was taken, but the staff were super helpful and friendly, walking me through the menu to help me pick the right sandwich. Because it was so busy, I took my sandwich to go and found a bench in Jackson Square, which made for a perfect little picnic. The sandwich was huge and excellent value in my book. I'm so glad I picked it for my first meal in New Orleans--great service, fresh local seafood, and a fun nod to the Vietnamese influence on the city's food scene. Highly recommend. read more

It's a somewhat small spot with several tables. You order at the counter, and someone brings your food to the table. We came for a pretty late lunch around 2:30 and got the seared shrimp and beef debris sandwiches to share. The shrimp was seasoned well and the pickled veggies balanced out the saltiness nicely. The beef was very tender and reminiscent of what you would find in a stew. It was good, but I personally preferred the more layered flavors of the shrimp. The one thing is there was too much liquid from the veggies and meat, and it made the bread instantly soggy. read more

Very solid poboy. However, I'm not sure if this qualifies as a "poboy"--for those familiar, it's virtually identically to a banh mi, in that it's basically a French baguette sandwich with pickled carrots, cilantro, and mayo-based sauce. I do think a typical poboy has fried shrimp (rather than seared), lettuce, tomato, and pickles, so this didn't seem like the most authentic first-poboy experience That being said, I got the seared shrimp poboy and it was delicious! Shrimp was juicy, large, and plentiful, and the baguette had a crispy crust with soft interior Not one of the more well-known spots for poboys but it was definitely a great sandwich. I was dining with a vegetarian friend and it's definitely one of the best poboy spots for people with dietary restrictions read more

My mouth is watering just remembering the juicy, beefy poboy on probably the best French roll I've ever had. The beef was tangy and tender, and the middle of the bread was perfectly moist with braising liquid while the edges stayed firm and chewy. The pickled peppers and beans gave a satisfying crunch, and a few dashes of hot sauce tied it all together. The pecan butter and jelly was delicious, sweet and creamy on crunchy seeded bread but maybe a tad dry...I would personally load it up with more filling and toast the bread slightly less, but it was still a comforting treat. Will be back next visit to NOLA! read more

Conveniently located by bourbon street, this poboy place is a must try. For less than $15, the pork belly po boy was divine. Complete with ample flavorful meat, cabbage slaw, and tasty sauce, the sandwich was both affordable and filling. Service was prompt as well.

A bit of a hole in the wall spot on a side street close to Bourbon St. I was on the hunt for vegan friendly food in NOLA & was happy to find this. They had three vegan po'boy options. I chose the Thai bbq tofu since I like Thai spices & wanted more protein. Overall, decent but the tofu could have been marinated a bit longer and the bread could have had a sauce lined inside. The bread was dry other than the relish added inside and stacks of tofu. Maybe adding a spread on the bread and smaller tofu pieces could help. They also sell drinks & chips. My friend tried the potato salad and said it was good but spicy. I'd come back to try the other options. There is plenty of seating inside. They have a restroom too. read more
