I have been dreaming of the meatball sub from Pocorellos. Unfortunately, they closed some years back. I need a meatball sub that matches those authentic Italian standards.

Not sure I ever had a pocarello meatball sandwich but randazzo's in denham springs has a pretty good one.

It's been years since I've had one, but Monjunis used to have one on Leidenheimer bread.

yes Pokeys was the best I’ve never had better.
Currently I think cannatellas is the best option for a close second

Agreed - I also like their deal where you can get any two poboy halves for $19.99. I usually get 1/2 meatball, half fried oyster

I usually get 1/2 poboy and soup. Meatball and crab bisque for the win!

They also made their own Italian Sausage, it too was really good!

I second this one. Now that Pokey has retired, it’s the best in the city.

Those were the best, I got out of control and asked for one with provolone and eggplant, WOW. Pokie smiled, Vita snarled.

Here’s a pro tip and a game changer: Go to DiGiulio’s and get a meatball & eggplant poboy—no bread. Thank me later.

Canatella Grocery off government has a very good meatball poboy. Definitely give them a try.
