After leaving the Garden District bakery, we went straight to Parkway to beat the rush by being here at opening. We’ve driven by a couple of times and it is always packed. The restaurant has been featured on lots of food shows and Youtube videos. It is voted as the top po boy spot in NOLA. It opened in 1911 and has been a vital part of the neighborhood with the food and bar. They have a covered patio area in addition to inside dining.
Jana got a classic shrimp po boy not dressed. Mike got the barbecue shrimp po boy dressed. We also got fried pickles. For dessert we got bread pudding and rum cake to go.
To be honest, we were not that impressed. It was not bad, but it was like all the other po boys we tried.
