Had a shrimp boy. Cheap and excellent. Better than all the tourist spots. Definitely recommend!

The place is extremely clean and organized but the food os just mediocre. Our poboys were on hard French bread and difficult to eat. The crawfish pie was just ok... Staff nice but definitely not worth the instagram hype. read more

Easy food. Affordable. Quick service. We went Mardi Gras morning. Surprised it was so empty. Hidden gem. $12 breakfast. Clean enough space. Didn't see a bathroom. Would go again. read more

Visited The Orange Store for the first time on Saturday March 8, 2026. Young lady at counter in front not very friendly, nor was the Young lady in the back cooking the food. Ordered a shrimp po-boy on French bread. Noticed the young lady actually counting the shrimp to be fried. I have never seen anyone doing this when making a poor boy sandwich and I have been eating poor boy sandwiches most of my life. Very disappointed when I sat down to eat my sandwich. There was not a shrimp in every bite. Will be the first and last time at The Orange Store. read more

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. read more

The Orange Store - Grocery Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Just like many of the reviewers who have commented this being a nostalgic moment. When management changed did they change the measurements on the teriyaki sauce too? I swear I couldn't even finish my order without my tongue feeling raw from the amount salt in the sauce. Please someone tell me I'm not tripping.. I had to throw the rest of my food in the trash after 4 of 16... I kept reaching for water.. I tried Orange Store but you lost me on this one ..#areallsalesfinal? #iloveyallbutwthelly? read more

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. read more

Order placed via yelp/grub hub. Supposed to be open until 11pm but they were closing at 10pm instead. I called to verify that they received the order and they did but they were canceling the order and would not make it because they were closing shortly. They had time to make the order but instead they chose to cancel it and they were not going to notify me directly. I used to frequent their deli but I will not be moving forward. read more

Love this place! It's known for the teriyaki wings and they do not disappoint. I will say because it seems as if they have new owners the taste of the teriyaki wings are a bit more salty. But if you can handle salty food go for it. I love the po-boys here also. For the most part very friendly customer service. The store also looks amazing! They have given it a facelift and it's looking great. read more

I live within minutes from there and I can't say enough how much of a life saver it is after a long night of drinking. As well as the next morning when you just don't feel like cooking hmmmmmm really hits the spot read more

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. read more

Against my better judgment I went to this place on the recommendation of my Uber driver for a poboy. I usually go to another place on Claiborne St. The shrimp were fried like fried chicken instead of fish fry and the hot sausage poboy used links instead of patties. I'm a patty lover. There are much better places in New Orleans to get a poboy. read more

very average food place, you wants average wings/poboys this is the place for you. Not a bad price for average food

Deadass the best Po boy i have eaten in Nola. ITS HUGE. Its cheap. Comes from just enough of a grimey joint to know its legit baby. Locals put me on and i come here 1x a week on . The sandwich is big enough that you can split it and not go hungry, esp if you add fries or etter yet - WAFFLE CUT SWEET POTATOE FRIES SON! Pro tip - order ahead to pick up, ask for light on the mayo if you aint a mayo lover ( i am not) the go hard with the mayo. They also have other standard corner store fare - beverages, gum, candy, white tees, cigarettes...you know- essentials. read more

Very friendly staff, and shrimp poboys were perfect. They have numerous tasty options and everything else for perfect snack and meal.

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. read more

Believe the hype. The shrimp po'boy is enormous and perfect. I've never had a better one anywhere else. I got mine dressed, no mayo, add butter and hot sauce. It was like angel tears in my mouth. This place is 100% worth it. read more

Excellent hot sausage poboy. I liked the shrimp, too. They are very large! Well-dressed. The wait was a little long so try calling ahead. They can get busy. Glad I found this spot. read more

My My My, it's not the same. A 12 piece of chicken with a drink cost me $17 and the chicken pieces were extremely SMALL. It use to cost $10 if that. No wonder this store had no customers when I arrived. read more

They have a rat problem. They had to replace their whole inventory because rats ate thru everything and they continued to sell food out the kitchen during it read more

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??? read more

Rampart street food store is one of those places known simply as the "orange place" by locals including Sylvester Francis, of the Blackstreet Cultural museum. They serve the best shrimp po boys we had in New Orleans. Lemme warn you, its not a restaurant by any means. It's a convenience store. Step in, and you'll be greeted with your basic necessities: vegetable oil, candy bars, and a row of refrigeration units stock full of beer. Walk to the back and you'll find a window into a kitchen. It may be difficult to navigate through the menu. Don't stray to the lo mein side of the menu, stick with the sandwiches and you'll find the shrimp sandwich right above the oyster sandwich that's been crossed out with a sharpie. The day we were in New Orleans, it was raining cats and dogs. While we planned to go back to the hotel to consume our sandwiches (you're not allowed to eat there), we couldn't. Finding shelter from the rain under the balcony of an apartment complex, we scarfed down the sandwiches. read more

we were recommended this place by the locals, and I can understand why. It's freaking delicious! everything was perfect!!! seriously!!! their freaking shrimp po boy was seriously the business!!!! oh, and they are a vietnamese family too, so they serve asian food. I don't know if I would order it because it doesn't seem like that is the type of food that they known for, so I'll stick to my fried southern po boy's! cost : $6.00 buck!! uhm, yes please!!!! this place is the legit place, and if this is where the locals go, I am game!!!! 12'' of deliciousness in my mouth!!! God, I am so in love with new orleans! it's so fraking amazing! Warning : you can get lost finding this place, and I would recommend you to find a place to eat it. there is no table service, it's a freaking mini market with bars on the windows and it's in a "bad" neighborhood. From what the locals say. so get ready to eat it on the curb side like what we did. it was so worth it though. so bomb! loves it! you're welcome tourists! read more

The Orange Store - So delicious!! - Grocery Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

It's a convenience store that looks like a house from the outside, but has a kitchen in the back and a window where you can order food. Some random guys at a bar overheard us looking for po boys and they recommended this spot. Once I consulted with Yelp, we immediately headed over. It's quite the experience. Walk to the back and you'll see a big menu on the wall and a window where an Asian lady will take your order and then yell at you when its done. We did the shrimp po boy and the hot sausage po boy. They were served on French baguettes and were pretty legit. The shrimp was the better of the two, but both were great. Hefty pieces of fried shrimp and just the right amount of mayo and veggies. At $7, you really can't beat it. The hot sausage was a bit cheaper at a hair over $5. We also got the yaka mein because my friend who grew up in NOLA told us we had to try it. It wasn't great. And not only because it was 85 degrees out. Pretty bland and the beef was an unappetizing shade of grey. I later looked up photos of yaka mein on the internet, and those looked much more delicious. But yeah, come here for the po boys. Stay because you can also buy toilet paper and off-brand laundry detergent while you wait for your food. Cash only, as if you had to ask. read more

The food was blah , nothing great. Bread was overdone on sandwiches and the price.... ten bucks apiece pretty high for what they are. They deliver though and that's something I guess. read more

New owners have changed the batter (not crispy and light, heavier crunch and chewy) and now you get half as many shrimp. A real shame another Marigny staple gone. read more

First and last time to ever step foot in this rundown dirty establishment with its racist employees. I asked to have 8piece teriyaki chicken with fries. The lady kept saying rice, I said fries, she said it comes with rice I said ok and a side of fries. She was playing games because I am of Asian descent. Thinking she was funny, I came back to ask if my order was ready and she acted like I never ordered and then called out the wrong order. I started to correct her but knew she was still playing her racist game so I told her she could keep her food and her attitude and left. If you are of Asian descent do not bother with this trash place or trash employees. read more

Looks are definetly deceiving! May not look like much on the outside, but the women in here are cooking up some amazing dishes! Wanted a P.o. Boy before I left New Orleans, and boy did I find a place. Got a huge Shrimp Po Boy for $7. Ate half on my ride back to Atlanta. My cousin and I both agreed that it was perfect from the fresh bread to all the toppings. Glad we stopped here before we left town! read more

Last year I ate 13 shrimp poboys in the drivers seat of my Dodge Charger car while I drove to Jacksonville Florida with just my knees and no hands on the steering wheel because I needed my both hands for the sandwich so that I could cram them into my mouth but I almost crashed into the guardrail and sendt sparks flying onto the nearby flora before regaining control of my vehicle since i was falling asleep even though i was eating; so I went ahead and drove so fast. Be aware that they're closed from seven pm to eight pm for cleaning. read more

Unfortunately, I will no longer be ordering from here or recommending to others. Something dramatically changed in the quality of food going out the window about 2 months ago. In my opinion, this was once the best shrimp po boy in town.. big shrimp, perfectly tempura battered and fried. Ive given it 3 tries since I got my first bad shrimp po boy but after the 4th of the same low quality today, I'm forced to accept that it's just not going to happen. The shrimp have been small, dirty and dry,with the tails of the uncleaned shrimp left on. The battered has changed. Very sad to see your favorites disappearing on the block. Hopefully someone from management will read this and make adjustments. read more

When recommended by locals, you know you're getting good food! Shared a hot sausage, egg, and cheese sandwich with my little one. The big guy had a bacon, egg, cheese. The fresh baked bread was amazing. I'll definitely be going back before we leave, I need my catfish sandwich fix! read more

Best. Shrimp. Po'boy. Ever. I will be the first to admit that our 4-day trip to New Orleans centered around food. We'd been off the plane for about 45 minutes, and we'd already shared a muffaletta and an order of beignets from Cafe du Monde. We're foodies (though I hate the term). That's why I was glad to have read about this place in the New York Times 36 Hours column (http://travel.nytimes.com/2007/12/16/travel/16hours.html). Rampart is basically a convenience store, and in a part of town where we never would have "stumbled" upon it, or even known to go in if we had. But boy are we glad we did. We ordered one shrimp sandwich, and watched with delight as she stacked on a giant gorgeous French roll: -mayonnaise -shredded lettuce -tomatoes then, the magic started happening. She proceeded to start stacking what I feel are JUMBO shrimp onto the sandwich, so big in fact that only 4 fit on this easily footlong roll when stacked across. I was briefly disappointed when I thought she was stopping at 4 shrimp... THEN 4 more shrimp (8!) THEN! 3 more staggered across on top of *those*. OMG. That's right; nearly a dozen shrimp on this sandwich. She then closed the top bread "lid" onto the sandwich, gave it a good press down, cut it in half, and wrapped it beautifully. We made our way to Frenchmen Street, yum-yumming all the way. read more

I am the luckiest lady in the WORLD because my family lives around the block from this corner store, and we can stroll on over, get jumbo, panko-breaded shrimp piled on French bread (a HUGE sammich for just $5.99--try to get THAT price in the FQ) and then walk back and lounge in the courtyard at the house. For the less fortunate, you won't mind curb-sittin' for these sandwiches. The people watching is amazing here too...like Vice Magazine's "Do" list a million times over. CASH ONLY!!!!!! I used a lot of all-caps in this review. It is that good of a place. read more

The food here is great and cheap. You can leave with one of the best shrimp po' boys in the city and a tall boy for less than $8. Pros: Awesome, cheap food. Also try out the 8 pc teriyaki wings + fried rice or fries for $5. Cons: The convenience store portion of this place is terrible, but they do have beer which solves all problems. Misc: There's a Banksy across the street. read more

This is the best shrimp po boy in New Orleans! I stand by that. Very unsuspecting. Good wingers as well.

Located in the back of a bare convenience store, this is the best po-boy I have had so far in NOLA. Excellent shrimp po-boy. Huge sandwich (about a foot long) with huge shrimp to match. About 10 or 11 stacked three high. Super fresh... hand battered and fried while you wait. Dressed with mayo, lettuce, tomato, pickle, and hot sauce. Solid roll. Sandwich and a 24 oz High Life for under $8. Walked to Esplanade and ate in the middle of the street under a tree. As another review mentioned, you can't eat in the store. And you wouldn't want to. On the day I visited, it was about 90 degree outside and probably about 110 degrees inside. Waiting was the hardest part... was dripping sweat. I don't know how they stand it all day in there, but thank god they do... I will be back. read more

Don't even want to give it one star! But the app makes me...This place continues to disappoint. Used to always get food from here before new owners bought it. 3rd time now that i called in an order, and THEY NEVER MADE IT!!! I even went in and left and went back again, giving the girl extra time to make EVERYONE'S order that was standing there. But still they didn't even start making mine!! Then was asked what i ordered. So unprofessional. This was the FINAL time I go there. Not only for this but also, I never see them sanitize or use any CDC precautions as they are mandated to. All around this place is not what it used to be. read more

This was closest liquor store. Prices are high. They didnt have a lot of mixes to go into your drinks. It was just okay.

I thought I would attempt to start writing reviews of the deli's that I've come to like and dislike during my time in New Orleans. And since this was my first (circa '03), I will start here. This place, like others have stated, makes one of the best shrimp po-boys in town. It's different from any other place. They use what I believe to be more of an asian prawn shrimp, with batter to match (not an expert though, could be wrong). The price has gone up since I first came- I think it was $4.59 for a 12". But it's still cheaper than a lot of places. One thing I would like to add is that this place is just a great place to experience old fashioned new orleans "ghetto-ness" in authentic form :) This is not to detract from it. It's just something to experience. 4 stars. read more
