Jasmines on Jones creek. Best poboy in BR. Also excellent soups, they do a good sandwich, soup combo deal
FWIW, there's a gas station on Burbank that has a sign that says "Burrito" on it. You go in the attached restaurant and it's a Mexican hang-out, but damn is that good authentic Mexican food. Tacos, burritos, tamales. All cooked in a kitchen that's wide open to your view so no worries about it being a gas station
. They have the best verde salsa I've had too
Monjunis IMO is best bang for your buck Italian food in town. My grandma is an excellent home cook, featured in several cooking articles previously, and she's straight off the boat Italian. Monjunis is as good as her cooking and tastes the same. Same sweet red sauce I've had since I was little
Roul's - excellent burger for a good price
Wahada sushi on Nicholson - very good custom rolls, always made fresh in front of you, and owned and operated by actual Asian people, unlike many sushi favorites in town
Poboy express
Then all the other recommendations the rest of the board makes, Beausoleil, Jubans, Ruffinos, Roberto's, city Pork, etc are on my list too, I've just been adventurous and strapped for cash so I've checked out all the cheaper places![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/IconLOL.gif)
