First things first. Bring cash. We stood in line and ordered before we realized that it was a cash only place and then had to go walking around for an ATM. Once that was accomplished we had to stand in line again and like some of the other reviews mentioned the line gets pretty long during lunch time. Luckily the... more

This fine hole-in-the-wall is our lunch place of choice in NO. Be forewarned, the po'boys are huge. Knowing this, we opted for a half sandwich and cup of gumbo special--big mistake! The gumbo is watery and thin on protein ingredients--we downed a spoonful each and ditched the rest. Despite that glitch, Johnny's delivers on the rest of its menu, and... more

It closes at 3pm, only takes cash and is about the size of a walk-in closet, but the line still snakes out the door. Had some seafood gumbo and a fantastic muffaletta. Salivated over the shrimp po-boys, which looked phenomenal. Caught up with one of the workers outside the shop and he gave us a clue as to what went... more

Roast Beef Po-Boy was delicious. Don't let the long lineup scare you..service is fast and friendly and food is definately worth the wait. more

This place is small and busy. But it is worth the wait. The staff is quick and the food is good. more

We had wonderful breakfast of Biscuits with chicken fried steak and gravy and bacon... more

As I was looking up this restaurant to write a review the words that kept coming to mind were "overhyped" and "tourist trap" so again - ditto on the last review. While they at least got our order right, it was the worst meal we had the entire week we were in Louisiana. The shrimp po-boy was subpar at best,... more
