New Orleans’s Best Po’ Boy Sandwiches | Eater New Orleans

"R&O’s, a family establishment in Bucktown since the 1980s, touts pizza as its primary trade, but the po’ boys loom large for locals. Servers, quick to say baby or honey to their customers, are quick and efficient. There is plenty of seating, cold beer, and a casual vibe that includes a roll of paper towels on every table at this restaurant at the lake. Roast beef comes with red or brown gravy and there’s fried soft-shell crab when it’s in season." - Eater Staff

Best Muffulettas in New Orleans | Eater New Orleans

"R&O’s, a family establishment in Bucktown since the 1980s, touts pizza as its primary trade, but the po’ boys loom large for locals. While roast beef is the most famous here, the muffuletta has its own following as well — it’s a classic, served hot and melty with a finely chopped olive salad, one that seeps into its Italian loaf. Order one to go and head to the lakefront for a treat for the whole family — they’re huge." - Beth D’Addono
