The New Orleans Lunchbox Restaurant offers a diverse menu of Cajun and Southern-inspired dishes. The hushpuppies are consistently praised as a standout item, described as homemade with a delicious corn flavor. The gumbo and jambalaya also receive positive feedback, with the jambalaya noted for its thick, flavorful blend of meats and a subtle kick of heat. The fried catfish is well-received, though some customers would prefer filets over strips. The shrimp and oysters receive mixed reviews, with the shrimp described as fresh and slightly salty, while the oysters are reported to be chewy. Customers have praised the shrimp po' boy, describing the shrimp as breaded and cooked to perfection, and the poboy bread as soft and flaky. The brisket, smoked for over 17 hours, is also highly recommended. The restaurant offers a casual, gas station-style atmosphere, creating a unique dining experience. Recent reviews highlight the delicious shrimp po' boy, seasoned shrimp, and good fries, along with a baked potato salad with bacon that has a good taste. Customers appreciate the exceptional service and encourage others to try this spot if near UAH. Several mention that the catfish, red beans, jambalaya, and bread are very good, making it a place worth visiting for authentic New Orleans food.
