Mike's PO Boys

Nice!!!!!!! Call ahead. The food is ready where.Nice experience while seated,Will visit again !!!!

If they could solve this one issue with the Roast Beef Poboy they could be great. In fairness, if I have a choice, it's going to be roast beef 90% of the time and these people have every element down except the gravy. The have the right bread from Liedenheiners The have the right toppings (mayo, lettuce, tomato, and pickles) The roast beef is good enough. (ideally a place that cooks their own is best but hardly anyone does that anymore) But they totally lose it with the gravy here. It's like a clear gelatin with no beef base or flavor at all. Not only is it not adding anything to the flavor, but it's unattractive. I can see they've been there a while so they probably don't need me to succeed and maybe the other choices would be fine there, but If they were open to use a better gravy (I'd be happy to share a recipe with them) then I'd find myself there once a week or so. On a good note - they do know how to make pork fried rice better than almost any chinese restaurant I can find in town. Wish they had a chinese menu to go with it. The lady that runs it is sweet and competent and the service is great. Only Gravy stands in the way of Good to Great!

We searched for a good poboy spot after our visit to Houmas House and Mike's was the closest. The menu looked good so we decided to stop in and get some poboys to take back to the house. We ordered a small fried oyster and an XL fried shrimp with a large order of five. There were 5 in our party and we had so much food. The shrimp was large and delicious. The oysters were cooked well too. This place has been bookmarked on our Yelp file to return when we come back to Baton Rouge next time!

Poboys are great, the owner is friendly and efficient, food is always fresh, so there is a wait time, but I never mind waiting for hot food made right consistently

I haven't eaten here in a while so today we thought to give it a try. We Ordered three regular shrimp poboy's $41 and my son noticed that the shrimp weren't whole shrimp, rather more like tiny shrimp parts formed into a kinda shrimp ball ... So much breading, it was difficult to find a whole shrimp. Not sure what this is, but NO THANKS !! Oh well, another poboy place bites the dust. So very sad!!

Details in my previous review- but for some reason I was too harsh - this definitely rates four stars (worthy of being a regular)

The "shrimp" on the fried shrimp Poboy is actually bait shrimp mashed together with batter to resemble jumbo shrimp. This used to be a great place for fried seafood. Now, not so much.

The best Po Boys in town! Love supporting a local restaurant, too. Service is good as well.

Roast beef poboy was pretty lacking in flavor (canned gravy?) and the french bread had a microwaved, chewy texture. Definitely doesn't represent SWLA very well. Thinking perhaps they should concentrate on Asian, which looked decent enough. Bathrooms were really dirty with heavy buildup of grime and smell.

shrimp poboy-terrible. bread was too hard to eat and "shrimp" was chopped up and rolled into little balls and fried. No flavor. and he went up on his prices. never again. yuk
