Went today for lunch and got the Mandarina sandwich and some Passion fruit juice. When it came out it looked kinda small but when I picked it up, that sucker was heavy (weight wise) and was quite filling. It was very messy w/ the pink tomato aioli but was delicious. Friend of mine had the pulled pork one and said his was delicious as well. I'll definitely go back.

It was delicious. Also, apparently that old tire store catty-corner from it is going to be a new restaurant supply store. (according to another customer in the restaurant)

pimenton sausage sandwich
goat tacos



ETA: nevermind I was thinking of Maurepas. Haven't been to this place yet. My buddy has gone several times and likes it. Said they do charge $7 bucks for corn on the cob. He forbid a date to order it based on principal.

Not the best, the neighborhood is supposed to be one of the new up and coming neighborhoods like Freret and Oak.

Just added to the list. It's not that deep in the hood.

I hear ya. But I drive past there almost daily and there's always sketchy characters walking around. Do they have a private parking lot?

True. But that used to be the case on Freret as well.
