Excellent vegan options

They had excellent vegan options here! My friend and I shared the tofu and the sweet potato poboys. Both were excellent, but I loved the tofu one the most.

Casual bites

They had a few vegan options to choose from which was surprising because it seemed like a small hole in the wall type place. I had the cauliflower poboy which was amazing with the roasted kale and my husband had the tofu poboy.

Pros: Casual vibe, Tasty sandwiches, Price

Not a Poboy, Cher!

We went, with high expectations, and were all disappointed. Now, that was during COVID, so it's been a while. But, all I remember is overcooked greens and an unpleasant flavor. If you want a vegetarian poboy, best bet is a dressed french fry poboy from Parran's or Parkway Tavern.

Cons: Taste, Texture, Overpriced

So good!

I had the sweet potato and collard greens po-boy. It was probably the best meal I had in New Orleans. The collard greens were amazing. The only thing I can complain about is that the bread got soggy from the toppings. It's also a somewhat messy meal.

Vegan options in NOLA!

I was nervous about eating on this recent trip to New Orleans. Thank you, Happy Cow for finding a place that could accommodate all of my party. I’m having the delicious Thai BBQ tofu and the smothered greens. Delicious. I would definitely recommend this place! #Veganuary

Pros: Vegan options, Well seasoned food, Affordable prices

Fun and interesting options

Loved that there were three vegan options-they were all unique and interesting combos. I tried the sweet potato and greens one and it was tasty.

Loved getting a vegan poboy

So good to be able to try a vegan version of a poboy. The roasted sweet potato with collard greens, black eyed pea and pecan spread was delicious.

Excellent

I was torn between the three vegan options. The owner steered me to the bbq tofu. Excellent, as promised. For those dining with nonvegan partners, the classic shrimp poboy is spot on.

Pros: Very yummy, Good options, Fast

Excellent And Multiple Options!

NOLA is a little difficult for food-loving vegans. I was so thrilled to find 3 vegan poboy options all in one place that I got 2 to hold me for a couple days. The sweet potato and the BBQ Tofu were both delish and tasted like quality ingredients. Next time, I’d begin my trip here and stock up the hotel fridge! I only wish they stayed open later.

Pros: Creative take on a local dish, Multipe vegan options, Good quality ingredients

Vegan Po boys!

I've never had a normal poboy, but I've heard finding a good vegan one is hard? At this restaurant, half of the menu was vegetarian, and half of those were vegan. They also had vegan steamed greens as a side which is hard to find! The Thai BBQ Tofu poboy was delicious. The sauce was tasty and the tofu was cooked well. A quick, relatively inexpensive bite in the French Quarter

Delicious, affordable, and fast!

My partner and I popped in here during a visit to New Orleans, and we were totally satisfied! I ordered the cauliflower po'boy with romesco sauce and my (non-vegan) husband had one with BBQ chicken. My sandwich was delicious and just the right size for lunch. I was afraid it would be huge from the pictures, but it was perfect. They had an ice water station and bathroom, too. Food came out within 10 minutes! The value for the taste is incredible.

Pros: Multiple vegan options, Perfect portions, Great value

Delicious Poboys

Clearly labeled vegan options! The BBQ tofu poboy is delicious. I'm hoping to go back and try the cauliflower one.

Go early because they run out of vegan options

I ordered the tofu Poboy and they were sold out, as well as out of the cauliflower. I tried the only other vegan option which was the sweet potato. It was not well presented with 90% collard greens, an overwhelming amount, and only a tiny bit of sweet potato with no black eyed pea and pecan spread as advertised. Next time I will go earlier!

Pros: Friendly service, Convenient to the French Quarter hotels

Cons: Limited vegan items , Menu item not as advertised

A Frech Quarter Delight

One daquari down, and it was time to eat. Stopped by at around 2pm Sunday and boy was that the right time because a line started outside the building waiting for seating! Thai BBQ Tofu Poboy was awesome; sweet, sticky, with a good acid hit from the slaw. Highly recommend checking this place out !

Pros: BBQ Tofu Poboy, Chill Atmosphere, Friendly Staff

Don't leave NOLA without going here

The bbq tofu poboy slays so hard. The cauliflower one is pretty dang tasty too, but the tofu gets it with the crunch from the peanuts too🌱 So awesome, the staff are excellent, and what a fun place:)

Good flavor, but eat it fast

The tofu po'boy was pretty good. I loved the tofu but the slaw was a little brine-y tasting. I also didn't eat fast enough as the slaw made my bread soggy and inedible pretty quick

BBQ Tofu Sandwich

Was in NOLA for a bachelorette trip in 9/2023. Happy to find a place that is veggie friendly. BBQ tofu sandwich was great- flavorful and had a nice kick to it.

Been there almost every day of my trip

The cauliflower one is the bomb, bbq tofu is good too. Need to try the sweet potato but I think I'm going to end up getting the cauliflower again

Worth the trip

When we went there were three vegan options: Thai tofu BBQ, cauliflower and sweet potato with collards. I had the Thai tofu which was nice and spicy with a full flavor. The local tofu was special. My wife had the sweet potato one and enjoyed hers fully as well.

Pros: Taste, Multiple selections, Openness to substitutions

Cons: Busy at lunch time!

Good sandwich

We were staying a few doors away from here. Had the Thai Tofu sandwich. Kind of reminded me of a Bahn Mi sandwich. Very tasty and a little spicy.

Poor Boy

Have to support this place.
NOLA unexpectedly is not vegan friendly.

Pros: Has vegan options , At least understands veganism

Cons: Mostly dead food
