Banh Mi Boys

Love the Uptown location!!! It's great to be able to sit inside on these chillier days! Also don't let a little line scare you away...they are ridiculously efficient with a small staff. I found it moved very quickly. I cannot get enough of the bang bang shrimp or the pork belly. Those sandwiches are where it's at. The debris and oyster fries are lagniappe. I also enjoyed their Korean wings even though they were much sweeter than I expected. Overall, worth the trip. Bang bang shrimp. You're welcome.

Finally made it to Banh Mi Boys in Metairie and it didn’t disappoint. The braised pork belly sandwich was really good and met my expectations. Tried a few Bang Bang shrimp and those are definitely getting ordered on the next visit. Service was quick and pleasant. Enjoyed the outdoor seating. Heaters were perfect on a chilly day.

A+ banh mi sandwich construction, textures (fresh, crackly crust bread, veg, and meat), and bold flavors that play well together. I had the brisket banh mi, but they have fresh versions of the classics, too. Consider calling ahead. When I arrived, they were inundated with large orders and were honest about the long wait time. These people aren’t fooling around and care a lot about their sandwiches. It was such a delight to enjoy one on my way home after visiting NOLA. If I lived close by, I’d be a regular for sure. I’m also proud to see this coming from my generation of Vietnamese Americans. It’s great to see them taking the classic flavors from our elders’ generation and doing right by it while bringing forward fresh takes.

With a plethora of restaurants and po-boy shops in the New Orleans metro area , there is always debate about who's is the best. Well, I thought I had been to all of the best until today. Banh Mi Boys deserves a place among the titans. Their po-boys may not fit directly into the mold of traditional NOLA faire but they are certainly legit! Had the Bang Bang Shrimp and Grilled Pork po-boy today and I cant wait to come back and try the others. Flavors are simultaneously exotic and yet comfortably local; service is top notch, friendly and extremely fast! And dont let the location fool you...despite being attached to a Texaco it is extremely clean and comfortable. File next to: expanding your horizons and knowing your city on a deeper level. Get out of the quarters and head out to Metairie! Get a po-boy at Banh Mi Boys!

This is a must visit place in New Orleans (Metairie)!! I only get one thing here, but I’ve tried several of their dishes and they are all AMAZING! The BANG BANG SHRIMP though!!! Nothing else like it! I could honestly eat that every day. Over rice or in a Banh Mi!! They have a great selection of fries as well! K-Town fries are my go to. The customer is as great as the food! Even when there is a problem, it’s not a problem!! And they are very tech savvy! I can leave notes in my Uber eats comments and they actually follow them! Most places don’t care enough to go that extra mile. Oh, they are fast too!! I’m usually 20mins away if I do pick up; and they make the food in 10-15mins (2 people order), deliver 30-40min.
