The Poor House Bistro serves you some of the best New Orleans cuisine outside of the "Big Easy." The Po Boy (Poor) is a traditional New Orleans sandwich served inside a converted Victorian family home…
Sorry, I dug into it already! Super crispy and soft which is hard for fried fish sometimes. The sauce is so zesty. I've only visited once before, but first take out order. Beignets are to die for and not pictured, a messy but delish eat.

Poor House makes some of the best sandwiches around. Sending the meat separate from the rest of the sandwich is a genius move and insures you never get a soggy sandwich. And when they say Cajun Fries they ain't kidding! Have a drink handy! Always happy to order from them and will definitely order again.

I was really excited to try this food and was sorely disappointed with the outcome. Couldn't stomach the Fried Seafood Platter. The crawfish pasta looked good and portion was big but still unappetizing. Overall for price not worth it, pictures are a bit deceiving

Unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed with the Jambalaya and Red Beans & Rice from Poor House Bistro. Both dishes were surprisingly bland and lacked the depth of flavor I was expecting from Cajun/Creole-inspired food.
The jambalaya especially felt like it was missing those bold, layered spices that should make the dish stand out. The Red Beans & Rice was similarly underwhelming ...very mild, without much seasoning or richness to bring everything together.
I really wanted to enjoy both dishes, but they just fell flat for me. When I think of jambalaya and red beans & rice, I expect comforting, savory, well-seasoned food with plenty of character. Unfortunately, these missed the mark.

The gumbo bowl was TINY. Absolutely not worth $16. The pasta was $4 more and was about 5 times the amount of food. Pasta was great as always.
