Dive into Parasol's, a beloved local spot in New Orleans, where the legendary po' boys and laid-back atmosphere create a memorable culinary escape.
"The menu of this fabled po’ boy spot has a little something for everyone. Firecracker shrimp is well-known along with traditional fried catfish, but the roast beef po’ boys are probably its most-ordered and loved version. It also has a surprisingly good muffuletta. 21+ only in the bar area but the back room is family friendly." - Eater Staff
"Treme characters appear to be chowing down on po’ boys at this classic Irish Channel dive bar in one scene. It’s a favorite for its roast beef po’ boy, especially, as well as its Firecracker shrimp and fried catfish versions." - Missy Frederick
"Tucked around the corner from Tracey's, this small divey spot is a neighborhood hangout most of the year — except during its St. Patrick’s Day block par, when its reach goes far beyond the Irish Channel. Parasol's has a pretty extensive food menu with lots of fried seafood, roast beef po’boys, and other New Orleans faves. Try the Irish sundae, potato salad with roast beef debris." - Eater Staff, Stephanie Carter
"This long-time divey hang also has one of the best roast beef po’ boys in the city. Located in the heart of the Irish Channel on the corner of Constance and Third, it also serves as the unofficial epicenter of St. Patrick’s Day revelry, if you can make it through the sea of partiers." - Eater Staff
"You can still find chip racks at the occasional bar outside of Pennsylvania, like at Parasol’s in New Orleans (pretty much every bar in New Orleans has great bar food and little bags of Zapp’s!)" - ByDanny Palumbo
