“Parkway will ALWAYS be a favorite for me and my family. We absolutely love their poboy’s. This place is #1 in our opinion ❤️“

“From the amazing food. Awesome decor and A+++ from the staff. All around great experience will be back when in New Orleans. A must visit when in town. The fried bologna sandwich is probably the best sandwich I have ever had.“

“I’ve been going to Guys since I moved here over 2 years ago, tried other so called Poboy shops, their not the same, the hospitality displayed at Guys is 2nd to no other restaurant I’ve ever been to!“

“I can't say enough about how friendly and genuine my interactions with Ellen at Luca Eats has been. She's responsive and so kind. Our catering order was a hit - we got the Big Luca, a delicious Caesar, veggie tray and the chips!! The food was fresh and delicious. Everyone loved it. I love supporting small businesses like Luca Eats. 10/10 recommend and will definitely be a repeat customer.“

“On a recommendation from a friend that was in New Orleans a few weeks ago I popped into Erin Rose to grab a Black Beer Beef Debris poboy. The depth of flavor is outstanding! I've been in town 5 days and it's the best thing I've eaten so far!“

“I stopped by this spot today and had the Larry Bird. It was really good! Definitely planning to come back. If you’re in the area, it’s a great place for lunch.“

“Philly Cheese steak poboy...with handcut fries...delicious. outside seating. ..nope, sitting at a table in the ditch along a very busy street with cars zooming past...nahhhh they have inside seat available but the worker at the register (owner?) told me inside seating wasn't open "this afternoon due to a large party coming in..." they never showed the whole time I ate outside over the dirty ditch. food great, I'll take mine ToGo next time unless inside is available.“

“Great food and staff. Going back to America just to get one of the incredible sandwiches and shakes.“

“The Kingcake was yummy! Hands down the best so far!“

“What a hidden gem! I stopped by on a whim and was seriously impressed. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with a smile and genuine hospitality. The place has a laid-back, welcoming vibe that makes you want to hang around for a while.

CJ, the manager, truly stood out — not only was he attentive and personable, but he also clearly takes pride in making sure every customer has a great experience. He suggested a few hoagies based on what I usually like, and nailed it with the recommendation. The sandwich was packed with flavor, the meat was sliced just right, and the veggies were crisp and fresh.

You can tell this place values quality and customer care equally. Whether you’re a hoagie fan or just hungry for something satisfying, this spot is worth checking out. I’ll definitely be back soon!“

“I’m originally from New York and grew up eating pastrami sandwiches and I have to say that pastrami sandwich I just had was the best since I’ve been back to New York I enjoyed that so much. And also that was my first time trying firehouse subs. It was great !“

“For those reading the comments on this, use my comment as a reference to judge this amazing place. I’ve both been a customer here and worked here for a period of time as well and I can say this much. The owner is one of the best people I’ve ever worked with as a boss. She doesn’t cut corners, she focuses more on high quality services and food, she’s always on top of her game, extremely hard working and efficient, knows how to run her business and what she wants. And she’s extremely fair to her employees, rewards and punishment come equally depending on your actions not her feelings. People also need to remember that not everything is the owner’s fault. There’s only so much control she can have over her employees and in that she does a decent job. The food quality is very high. She’s the kind of person that would rather throw out an entire pan of food if she sees the slightest sign of spoilage despite the loss rather than scoop the bad parts out to avoid making a loss. She doesn’t mind taking major losses if it means the customer gets good healthy food and is satisfied. We also need to remember that employees are still people not robots. A lot of them work double shifts. Some even open and close the store every week if they have to. She discourages it usually because like I said she’s fair and a very good boss and cares about her employees. But i also knew some co workers, I myself had to do it sometimes, who begged her for more hours because they badly needed the money. So imagine someone who has worked from the store opening, dealt with all kinds of customers good, bad, polite, rude, angry e.t.c. Didn’t even have lunch because she’s too busy serving customers and doing everything she’s meant to in the back. And then 5 - 10 minutes till her closing time when she’s cleaned the bathroom and other places and you walk in and say give me 3-5 footlong sandwiches. True she’s being paid to provide good service and should always provide it no matter what but again employees are not robots they are humans who have their own emotions. Especially for those who come in towards closing period within 10 minutes of closing. You need to be mentally prepared that the employee might not have had the best day and you might not get the best service especially with the time you’re coming in and that is not the owner’s fault. There’s only so much control she has over her employees and even when incidents like that happen, she deals with them so thoroughly that the employee will never want to repeat such a mistake. All in all, this is one of the best fast food places to go to in New Orleans. It ranks at the top in terms of hygiene, food quality, customer service and reliability.“

“So listen, this Subway location is one of my absolute favorites. It is tucked away in a spot that is not that easy to find, but if you find it, you will be happy. The owners are really nice. They always greet when you come in, and offer free cookies for understanding any mistakes they make. They are super detail oriented, and really try to ensure your food is done well.“

“Out of all the Subway's I've patronized, this one is the cat's pajamas baby! I don't frequent this all to often, but when I do, the guy remembers me and my order and asks where I've been. Not as impressive if this place were never busy, but it's gangbusters all the time. Barking out orders, making small talk, slingin sandwiches.“

“Good rolled sandwiches. Very hearty and nutritious. Hard to beat their speed and quality in the CBD area, especially for the price. Plenty of ingredient options from the “roll your own” menu. The ladies here are very sweet, accommodating, and make an effort to learn their customers.“

“Very attractive Prices and unique taste. loaded fries, Beef burger Pizza, zinger and Showarma.. Vey economical rates. Phillys Pizza Zinger and Shouwarman are best. Very Cozy environment. They played Cartoons on tv for our children's.🥰🥰“

“As a chain Subway is better than most other fast food joints. This one in particular though, was a great experience. The ladies behind the transparent wall o' sandwich stuff were friendly, funny, and fast at their job. The one who put the sandwiches together had me cracking up. Lastly, my gf loves their chocolate chip cookies and that was the only kind of cookies with an empty spot. However, they brought some fresh baked ones out for me and really made my girl's day brighter.(side note: ppl need to tip more, their tip box was so sad)“

“Today was my first visit to this location. I ordered a footlong Italian BMT. Great customer service! The employees are awesome! They smile! They listen & pay attention to the customer. My sandwich was made perfectly! The chocolate chip cookies were fresh & soft. Keep up the great work! Thanks!“
