Had a miserable lunch there a few weeks ago. Ordered the RB PB, last time I had a sandwich that small it was on a tray at a wedding reception. Wife got the BBQ shrimp PB, a tasteless mess made with tiny gumbo shrimp.
I can't believe I wasted a lunch in NO on that joint.
Glad they have a good reuben, I'm sure that will attract thousands of reuben lovers from all over the country. Oh wait, you can go to Schlotsky's anytime.
Liuzza's by the Track Reuben -- I Still Feel the Love
Re: Liuzza's by the Track Reuben -- I Still Feel the Love
If a top-notch reuben isn't reason enough to patronize a restaurant, I don't know what is. What makes Liuzza's reubens superior to others?
Re: Liuzza's by the Track Reuben -- I Still Feel the Love
It may not be the classic example, but a late night reuben from Verti Mart is not something to be sneered at. They're pretty tasty and, if you like to buy your food by the pound, a big sandwich.

I like mine grilled, too, Eatin.
Every St. Patrick's Day, I cook alot of extra corned beef and make a bunch of reubens... they freeze well.....
Just thaw em out and grill em. (With ALOT of butter, in my case)

LOL! I posted about our most recent visit there a few months ago on tob, We shared a BBQ Shrimp Poboy. It was made with the 100-120 count canned shrimp as you mentioned. It was horrible! The service was very innattentive too. Never again.Andouille wrote:Had a miserable lunch there a few weeks ago.

Lunched there today. Had Reubens and potato salad. Were greeted upon entering, and service was not at all inattentive. As to the sandwiches: had better, had worse. But these were grilled and tasty, and, as noted above, did suffer slightly from the soggies on the dressing side. Will have to give Martin a shot next time we're in the mood.

I agree that LbtT usually has a great Reuben. (I love Stein's also). But for me their gumbo is the best. It suffered after the levee failure for a long time but it has been spot on for at least a year now. Hmm. I think I'll start a new gumbo thread.

Had that Reuben at Martin today. Best quality in all categories so far, of those previously mentioned-- and I've had them all-- and at a more-than-reasonable price.
