Inventive sandwiches & cocktails in a playful, colorful space
"Home to a perfect fried bologna and potato chip sandwich that distills New Orleans’ playful side." - Sharan Kuganesan, Oset Babür-Winter
"In the Irish Channel’s kitschy kitchen, I found sandwiches with theatrical scale and flavor: the collard green melt—stacked with pickled cherry peppers, coleslaw, Russian dressing and toasted rye—is a trademark favorite, while fried bologna brushed in hot mustard and stacked with potato chips is a towering, crunchy must-order; even the cabbage 'salad' is bold, tossed in chili-coconut dressing and buried under fried garlic and crispy pig ears." - The MICHELIN Guide
"In the Irish Channel’s kitschy kitchen that made its mark after opening in 2016, I found over-the-top, large-format sandwiches—must-orders include the collard green melt with pickled cherry peppers, coleslaw and Russian dressing on toasted rye, and the towering fried bologna brushed in hot mustard and stacked with potato chips—where even the cabbage ‘salad’ is tossed in chili-coconut dressing and buried under fried garlic and crispy pig ears." - The MICHELIN Guide
"In New Orleans, Turkey and the Wolf is identified as a deli that appears on the MICHELIN Guide's inaugural American South Bib Gourmand list." - The MICHELIN Guide
"In New Orleans I experience how Turkey and the Wolf rewired expectations for artisanal sandwiches: a kitschy, scrappy red-brick spot where whimsical, semi-unorthodox plates like dilly heirloom tomato sandwiches and fried bologna stuffed with thin potato crisps on decorative plates turned playful, weird sandwiches into a cultural moment and encouraged chefs to bring fine-dining sensibilities into down-to-earth sandwich making." - Kayleigh Ruller
