Magazine Po-Boy Shop

Great shrimp poboy & amazing eggplant parmesan poboy! We have been here numerous times and is very consistent with great food.

Not bad. Good quality, homemade roast beef. Leidenheimer French bread was the right texture. I don’t like how the counter is set up, with the workers looking down at you. I would not order the French fries again. They were precooked and not that great.
Overall, decent. I’d return if I am in the area.

Hot sausage po boy is always great. Friendly staff and all around great New Orleans food.

Fairly disappointed. Ordered pick up and the person on the phone hurried my g/​f off the phone without getting our complete order or giving us a total and estimated time it would be ready. I was looking forward to the food but sad to say it fell far short of amazing. My shrimp in my poboy was hard and over fried and my g/​f was pretty disappointed with her roast beef as well. The gumbo came across as soupy and bland. Won’t be trying this again.

This is a great small business to support. We went in for fried shrimp po-​boy and it was delicious! The staff was very friendly, and it was a good value. Definitely worth a stop if you are in that area. We’ll try the soft-​shell po-​boy next time we’re in NOLA.

The food and service were great. Lunch is maybe a little pricey. Its no Mahoneys but Im glad I finally stopped in to give the place a chance!

Old school Nola style restaurant in an Uptown house turned business. We split the king size fried soft shell crab poboy. It was fresh and hot — and obviously made to order. For two, I’d recommend adding a side of something if you’re very hungry. But all-​in-​all, if you’re looking for that traditional New Orleans atmosphere with legit poboys, this is a good spot.

Supposed to be h/​c accessible but there is no ramp and a high stoop they were very accommodating they had seats under umbrellas for eating

I wish I could give 0 stars. We had po-​boys at Johnny’s Po-​boys a few days before and LOVED them. So, as we walked the Garden District and saw this shop, we thought what could go wrong? We received two very stale rolls with regular ol’lunch meat in them. So dissapointed. I ended up throwing out the roll and just dealing with it. Save your money.

I always get the fried chicken po boy! It’s really, really good! I highly recommend this place!

For what it is, it’s expensive. The food is completely average, served on paper plates. The staff seemed rude but maybe they were new, they didn’t seem to know much of the food. Got a po boy that filled me up but was really nothing special.

Seafood platter and shrimp and oyster po-​boy Sandwich were awesome. Nice environment. Good service.

I stopped in during my last visit to Nola, and I was happy that I did. I ordered the fried shrimp po boy, voodoo chips, and lemonade. The food was cooked to order so my shrimp was hot and crispy when I got my sandwich. I put hot sauce on mine, but I put hot sauce on everything .
This place appears to be a neighborhood staple. While I ate, I saw lots of people from the neighborhood stopping in to grab lunch. I always think that’s a good sign. There’s plenty of space to eat inside, but there are also a couple of bistro tables outside perfectly placed underneath the shade of an awning. If you’ve never been, it’s worth a try.

Excellent food made even better by superiorly friendly service. Nice old time New Orleans ambiance.

We almost got off on the wrong foot, as they handed my po-​boy to another customer that almost made it out the door. But the error was corrected, and I left with my whole catfish to go, dressed.
I opened the bag to find two packets of mayonnaise, and my heart sank a little bit. Did they not put enough mayo on it to start? I pushed past and opened my sandwich.
Let me tell you, it was impressive. Perfect proportion of dressing, mayo, and catfish. The bread was crispy and flaky on the outside but not too chewy. For my liking, the bread was perfect. The fish was fried but not oily. It was a great sandwich, and I will definitely go back.

Great little local spot to grab a Po boy.
Loved the option of being able to get half shrimp/​half oyster! This should become the new standard for all Po boy merchants as I hate choosing.
The Po boys themselves were good but not great. If you are in town for the weekend don’t bother but if you are on a Po boy quest this should be in your top 20 – 30 to try out (it should be noted if this place was anywhere other than the Crescent City it would rank much much higher).
We also grabbed a side of chicken and sausage gumbo as I’m a fatty and can’t pass up trying the gumbo on any menu. Again good but not great, could have used a hit of pepper vinegar or hot sauce. We got the meal to-​go and sat in The Fly so sadly had none on hand.
The staff were super friendly and genuinely happy to be serving good NOLA neighbourhood style cuisine.
The breakfast menu looked extensive and has some decent reviews from others, maybe next time…

Love the shrimp poboy add swiss cheese and brown gravy. Might sound off but it’s amazing!!!

Easy, simple and classic New Orleans neighborhood spot. Great breakfast poboys and they have iced coffee. Also love the eggplant parm poboy.

IF YOU AREN’T IN THE MOOD FOR PARASOLS
— this place isn’t bad.
WHY YOU’D GO:
— super cheap prices
— much wider menu than most nearby shops
— large dining area, friendly staff
and…
THAT $ 7 MUFFALETTA SALAD
is really good (and of course it isn’t ruined by too much bread!)

I am on a never ending quest for the best roast beef poor boy on earth. My most recent stop was Magazine Po-​Boy.
I really like the building. It is old and typical of a New Orleans neighborghood joint. There is a large board with the menu to the left of the counter. Once you make up your mind, walk up the steps and order. As others have mentined, it is cash only, but there is an ATM inside. I do wish they would take credit cards for convenience, but it was not that big a deal.
I ordered a roast beef and some gravy fries. Both were good, but I wasn’t overwhelmed. The bread was correct, but the sandwich just seemed rather ordinary. The fries were also average.
I did notice that during lunch they offer several specials, including white beans. I may have to come back and try more of those types of things since my regular plate lunch place has closed.
In summary, the restaurant has the right look, but I was not impressed with the food.
