Nola Ice-Broad St Peaux Boys at the Pizitz Food Hall

My hubby and I were looking for a place to get a quick meal, we're at McWane center and it was a couple of hours before the IMAX theater opened. We were told by one of the employees that across the street in the old Pitiz bldg were several places to eat, we walked throughout the food court seeings multiple spots with so many options to pick from. We wanted something fast, not to messy, decent prices, not to busy..... this eatery had a menu posted with prices, the young man there didn't rush us while we were trying to decide what we wanted. We ended up getting a 3pc catfish and fries each. The fish was delicious, crusty, hot and a little spicy. The fries were hot and generous, with a spicy kick to them. We got some of the house sauce to dip our fish and fries in also. We drank water, but there were options of soda drinks, icy slushy Nola Ice with several flavors. There were several choices on the short menu: catfish, chicken, Peaux Boys sandwiches, etc. The man who took our order was the cook, drink/Icy ice maker, the cashier and the server. We went late afternoon when the crowds were at a smaller pace, we seen people in the food court eating or drinking a variety of the options, a birthday being with friends, grandparent taking grandchild for ice cream, some security guards going through talking to vendors there and no one was complaining. It was a very nice delicious meal discovered in a place that I wouldn't have found if not for the MaWane employee. We plan on going back to both places soon😊⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐+

Customer service where friendly, however, the food was nasty. I ordered shrimp and catfish Poboy with a side of red beans and rice and a tigers blood snowball . the the best thing on the Poboy was the shrimp which were authentic shrimps. The catfish had unclean fishy taste and the ketchup was super vinegary. The red beans tasted like it was straight from the can.and even though the cashier made a fresh batch of tigers blood syrup for the snowball , its flavor was still off putting like it was stale. I would not recommend this place unless they start cooking with love.

Worst catfish po-boy have ever eaten, I was Leary when I saw a young man possibly a teenager cooking it, cooking catfish is a skill, this catfish was undercooked and very mushy. Consider that $16 a donation to your business, I wouldn't order it again if it was free

Stopped here for lunch. Service was great and helpful. Had the Catfish with lemon pepper hot with some Cajun ranch fries! It was very good and the fish was fresh. Don't forget to grab a red drink.

Please verify your food when ordering from here. This is the second time I have ordered a large Snow Cone, and they give me a small. I ask to get what I order, show them the receipt, and they made a big deal over it, so I just left. Be careful

Friendly staff. Clean area. Couldn't stop eating it getting to my destination. Fries are well seasoned and have crunch. Seasoned shrimp takes me back to Nawlins!!! Great food, only thing i would add is bigger hushpuppies and make your own tarter sauce with your skills for seasoning! Awesome!

Me and some friends was on a trip to Alabama for the weekend found this wonderful food hall with all kinds of different foods.
As we walked and looked around at all the different foods Nola stood out!
The 2 young men that were in there was the best they guided me and my friend through things I had the shrimp box and my friend had the fish box and wings. Everything thing was beyond delicious and the sauce OMG yall look it up and place your orders my 2 bottles are on the way.

There was no line. Food came out fast. I'm from New Orleans and was disappointed in the Peaux Boy. The shrimp was fine but it came with cherry tomatoes on very small bread. I can only assume it was a Pistolette and not a French Loaf. The sides were old. And my snowball came out after my meal. It was also a very odd texture. Somewhere between shaved ice and the snow of home. If you are a LA native this may not be the authentic experience you're looking for.

Great snow cones.
