Mr Poor Boy Restaurant

Food is slightly better than a year ago but still not impressive.

Expensive. The menu options show either 6 inch or 12 inch poboys, with other specialty sandwiches on brioche buns. But $16 for a 12 inch hamburger poboy is steep IMO. $14 for a cheese burger on a bun, even with a bag of zapps is just too high. I would rather you just price the burger and let me decide if I want the chips instead of this strategy. My burger was cooked perfect medium but it was a bit dense and dry. French fries were the frozen kind that get puffy and hollow from the fryer. They were nice and hot. My friend got the smothered chicken, which was seasoned heavily with taragon. Unfortunately she didn't like it and did not eat her lunch. Desi Vegas has prime beef burger with fries for $14.50 and Bobby's a few blocks away offers a cheeseburger poboy at 40% less. We got there at noon on a Wednesday and we were the only customers the entire 1.5 hours. People were friendly and the place was clean but the prices will keep me away.

Got a shrimp plate to go, and it cost $20. A little high for how much you got.

I hope everyone gives this place another chance. I actually never knew it existed before now but have heard since it was no good with previous owners. I've eaten there twice- trying 6 different menu items. Food is great, place is clean and comfortable, and the 3 staff members (including owner) that I met are friendly and down to earth.

I used to come to this place when I was a kid. It was fine, but nothing special. Recently, a new owner took over and is really turning this place into something special.

The roast beef poboy was sloppy, flavorful and held up well after a 15 minute car drive. My wife had a burger and she has particular tastes. She approved which is saying a lot! The service was shaky, but I was there in the first week of re-opening. (It's expected) The owner came out to make sure that everything was going well with my order (due to the wife's particular order) and that made me feel really good.

I'm excited to try some of the specials and will definitely be back soon!

Seems as if Mr po'boy is underneath new management. These photographs are in around and near the restaurant. Today we will have lunch there

Advertising home cooked food but when everything tastes like it came out of a box or a can doesn't relate to home cooked meal in my opinion. Customer service is top notch and friendly. The restaurant could use a revision to its very outdated atmosphere. Very disappointed in the food, but i am sure the po-boys may be the better things on the menu.

If you're going there to get to go I would recommend it dine in sucks. They only have to go packets of ketchup The chairs feel like they're going to break underneath you The food was just basic if you're hungry, you'll eat

Parking: Nobody goes there so the parking lot's always empty. The other business that I actually went there for was closed permanently
