    Teriyaki fries (sweet potato pie I got on the street)
    Melissa R.

    There is touristy New Orleans - and then there's the working class, local, every day New Orleans - corner store po boys and bodega style places off the main strip. Po boys were created for poor people, the working class. The French Quarter is like a disney land version of the culture beyond the borders. You can find so many gas stations, corner stores and the like outside the city like this selling GIANT po boys, New Orleans dressed, for waaaaay cheaper than what you find in the strip. I like supporting families who own their business and not just the big corporate places that are all owned by the same people on the strip. If you want to experience New Orleans for real, step outside the quarter.

    I've been going to The Orange store forverrrr. I mean Pre-Katrina forever. When I was a kid I would order a hot sausage and egg on French. I still to this day love to order that same meal from The Orange store. Although not as good as it used to be, still pretty good and it's so much nostalgia when I eat it. I don't love the new management, but never truly had a problem w| them.

    The first time I came in my brain couldn't make sense of this place. It looks like a house, but I found it online by searching for a grocery store. They didn't have much in the way of grocery items. No produce, in fact the shelves were half empty, but there was an entire wall dedicated to t-shirts and hats? And then there was a kitchen in the back...with po boys? Yes, po boys. This ended up being the last thing I ate on a flight out of the city. I always try to grab a little something for the plane ride, and in a rush ordered the shrimp po boy, not knowing the amazing quality of the meal I was about to enjoy miles in the sky. Damn. I wish I had more to say, I know this is one of my favorite po boys in the city (right up there with Verti Marte). The fry on that shrimp was so perfectly textured and seasoned, I miss this sandwich so much. They also serve breakfast, fried chicken, and Chinese food.

    Great inexpensive food. Was told to get the shrimp poboy and it really lived up to the hype! Also got the burger and mandarin chicken...all great too! Ask for the teriyaki drizzle on the fries...so good! Staff was nice and food came out fast. Also, one of the few places open 24 hours a day.

    DON'T EXPECT TO MAKE GROCERIES HERE unless you want canned refried beans or Argo corn starch...

    I PAID $16 BUT THREW $9 OF IT AWAY. Yes, the shrimp po'boy here is both markedly delicious and cheap ($6.99 for a 12-inch) but quality at Rampart goes no further. The fries are limp as if steamed. The burger is institutional, mostly a stale bun drenched in condiments and its jacked-up patty is only 1/16th of an inch thick (see photo). But where Rampart really fails is its petri-fried "terrya" wings, they're inedible, essentially just skin with bones. QUEUED AT 3:28 PM, FINALLY GOT FOOD AT 4:12 PM. SURLY EMPLOYEES. CASH ONLY. WAY BETTER NEARBY TAKE-OUT OPTIONS... Shrimp Po'boy: Melba's, Verti Marte Wings: Vieux Carré Pizza, Manchu, Wing Snack Fries: Quarter Grocery Cheeseburger: Nellie Deli, Buffa's NB: "dressed" here includes mustard, even on the shrimp po'boy, WTF???

Service is efficient, courteous, and friendly!…read moreBoth times we have visited this restaurant, Ms. Shirley has personally come to visit our table. She remembered us the second time and asked why our daughter wasn't with us. When we told her she was busy with a school event Ms. Shirley packed up a full order of dumplings (on the house) because she remembered how much our daughter enjoyed them. Lets talk vegetables...fresh...fresh...and fresh!!! Ambiance is upbeat and clean, people overall seem happy to wait to get a table because the majority of those that we spoke with are return diners. That in of itseld speaks volumes to the loyalty we locals have for Ms. Shirley! Many of us have been fans of Ms. Shirley since her ownership of Royal China in Metairie! Ms. Shirley we hope you see this review! You are like the friendly grandmother that so many of us miss in our lives! Thank you for feeding us from your heart!

    We waited for 45 minutes because I think everyone in New Orleans thought the same thing we did…read more"tonight is stormy, that feels like dim sum weather". The wait was worth is because we had a great time at Miss Shirley's. Once we were seated we were brought dumplings, I couldn't have any because I'm vegetarian but I appreciated the quick and complimentary plate! I would say there was about as many vegetarian options as I thought there would be, which is a moderate amount. I didn't really like the vegetable dumplings (pictured with the skewers through them) mainly because I just didn't know how to eat them. I think if we had received chop sticks I would have enjoyed eating them more but having to use the fork was awkward. The sauteed tofu was the best thing I've ever had at a Chinese restaurant, I've been thinking about it frequently over the last 24 hours. Even if you aren't vegetarian and if you've never had tofu before but been curious - you have to start there. Or actually don't because no tofu will ever compare haha! From my non-vegetarian dining partners: the xiaolongbao that came on the mini swings was yummy, the crab meat shu mai could be skipped, the chicken was delicious, the fried shrimp balls are a must have, and the gyoza was good. We also were surprised with mini beignets at the end of the night! I thought that was super cool and they were delicious!

I came across Dian Xin and it felt like a tiny oasis from the heat, humidity and bustle of the French Quarter. I ordered a variety of dishes to try and everything was great. The standout for me was the cucumber salad. Fresh, cool, zesty, spicy and crunchy - just what I needed to beat the heat. Loved the Hong Kong wonton soup as well as the tiny pan fried bao. I'll be back to try the soup dumplings and spicy wontons next time! Service was quick and pleasant and the food came out fresh and steaming. Give it a try for something a little off the beaten path in the Quarter!

    I've eaten here before and the food is decent, which makes this experience even more disappointing…read more I ordered a dish with shrimp and simply asked to substitute broccoli for the rice. When the bill arrived, I noticed I had been charged extra for the broccoli and also charged for shrimp--even though shrimp was already the protein included in the menu item I ordered. I politely questioned the charge, and the explanation I received didn't seem to match what was stated on the menu. I then asked to speak with a manager so the issue could be addressed. After quite a bit of discussion in the kitchen, the server returned, but instead of a manager coming out, I was given essentially the same explanation we had already discussed. I calmly explained why the charges didn't make sense and expressed that I was unhappy with how the situation was being handled. Unfortunately, there seemed to be little interest in resolving the concern or retaining my business. The food is fine, but my advice is to carefully review your bill before paying. Based on my experience, management does not appear particularly concerned when customers raise billing issues.

    My family loves Zhang Bistro. We have been ordering take-out from here for years and food has…read morealways been consistent. We can attest that they sell the best shrimp-fried rice in the New Orleans area (with really big shrimp)! General Tso chicken is delicious too. We've ordered other items but these are our favorite. Last night we took the journey by foot through the french quarter to get here. It was a rough walk but that's not Zhang's fault. That's just New Orleans. So the only negative comment I can give them is location. Yal it's hard to get to. When we arrived, we were immediately directed to sit where we wanted. The restaurant smelled tasty! Our server came out quickly and brought us water. After placing our order, our food was brought out pretty fast and it was piping hot. Tonight we ordered our usual, General Tso's chicken and shrimp fried rice. We decided to share both entrées. The shrimp fried rice was delicious! We did not need to add one pinch of salt or dab of soy sauce. This meant a lot because we frequent Japanese and Chinese restaurants and it has been awhile since we had fried rice that was seasoned well. Also, the shrimp in the fried rice were large. If you have ever had Hibachi shrimp, that is the size of the shrimp in this dish! The General Tso's chicken was perfect. It was crunchy yet covered in the Tso's sauce which was sweet and savorly flavored. Even the white rice served with the chicken had a good flavor. The vegetables were also cooked perfectly and flavored well. Checking out was easy and there were no surprises on our bill. Zhang's does have more expensive prices for its fried rice dishes but you really do get what you pay for. Trust me, we have shopped around and I've only found one other place that has fried rice with a similar flavor and it's on the westbank. We haven't tried the full menu but we've been pleased with all of our basics that we normally order. Also, Zhang is an "Asian Bistro" so there are items on the menu that go beyond those of a traditional Chinese restaurant. If you are staying in the quarters, this is the place that you want to go to for some good Chinese food.

    I'm a vegetarian (no eggs), I don't eat onions or mushrooms too…read more1. We ordered the vegetarian dumplings (fried and steamed) - we loved the dumplings They were soooooo good 2. Pad Thai Noodle - we loved this so much and they accommodated our needs of no onion and mushroom in all the dishes 3. Spicy Thai Fried Rice - was god too 4. Spicy Szechuan Hot Wok - this was my favourite 5. Coconut Soup with Tofu was so good Overall our experience was great. I'm not sure why did this restaurant have an option of either we can only have veggies or only tofu? I mean I have never seen it. Veggies are in the dishes regardless and the choice of protein is what is optional so that is something which I was not happy with honestly. (That's why 4/5) The service was good, our server was very warm and friendly. The ambiance was good too.

This week I wanted to visit spots successfully catering to locals and stumbled upon this tiny neighborhood hidden gem. Hidden because one would have easily missed it repeatedly when driving (or walking) past since the whole exterior was so unassuming at first glance. It only showed up on my radar when I meticulously searched for seafood spots on different platforms and randomly stumbled on their Facebook page. Best boiled crawfish and shrimp it said. Always fresh it exclaimed. Decently priced it stated. Well, this I had to go see it for myself and put to test. This was obviously a detour from my planned R&D in NOLA but was definitely a spot that must be designed for locals (and random tourists like me). This was confirmed immediately when I stepped in to see a long line of construction workers from the nearby site picking up lunch and some young kids digging into bags of shrimp and crawfish in utter delight. While looking at their sharpie streaked menu, I noticed quite a number of customers striking up conversations with the lady behind the plexiglass like long lost friends as they too picked up food to-go. Yeah, definitely a local friendly spot. Shrimp and crawfish by the pound was CHEAP in comparison to all the places in the area I've been. The best part? After getting back to the AirBnB, I realized just how good and fresh the seafood was! Succulent, very well seasoned, and not severely overcooked (like some spots around here prefer to serve it). I could taste the spices and aromatic vegetables used in the boil and found each bite absolutely tonguegasmic. Came for a pre-lunch snack and now back for a pre-dinner snack. Both the lady and gentleman had a smirk and muffled giggle as they saw me again. "You like it?" No, I love it. I'm here for a week and I'll be back every day you're open until I fly out of here. Take my money and give me thy awesome shrimp!

A quick Yelp…read moreand Google check showed great reviews, and even though the photos looked pretty simple, we decided to give it a try. Sometimes that's just how travel works and you cross paths with unexpected gems. The owner and his family couldn't have been nicer. This place has been around for over 30 years, a mix of convenience store and local eatery. The owner, an older Asian gentleman, warmly asked me and my husband where we were from as soon as he saw us. We think maybe because there aren't many Asian in the neighborhood and it instantly felt welcoming and we started to chitchat. His son was helping in the kitchen that day, and the guy taking our order (super friendly, too!) turned out to be his son-in-law, just stopping by on his day off. This place is small but we could tell most of the steady stream of takeout customers were regulars. We ordered about $50 worth of food: * C2 Fried Chicken (10 pcs) - $11.99 * P6 Shrimp Po'boy (12") - $5.99 * P8 Catfish Po'boy (12") - $7.99 * R5 Cajun Gumbo - $8.99 * Two cans of drinks It felt special that on our very first day in New Orleans, we got to try two of the city's most iconic dishes: Gumbo and Po'boys right here in this humble neighborhood spot. The fried chicken was super crispy, the Po'boys were packed with filling, and the gumbo was flavorful without being overly salty. We couldn't finish it all, so the leftovers became our breakfast the next morning. The shop itself is nothing fancy, just two folding tables and a few chairs but the food and the warmth of the people made it one of those memorable stops that really stick with us. We actually came back on our last day in New Orleans and wanted to try the Yak-Ka-Mein Soup which was recommended by the owner but it was closed on Memorial Day:( I guess we will save it for our next visit. If you ever find yourself in the area, I'd highly recommend trying their food. T&T Seafood & Po-Boys 548 Jackson Ave, New Orleans, LA 70130
