Even though we showed up during the lunch hour rush, the wait was worth it. We had seen Mahoneys on the show " Diners, Drive ins, and dives". The po boys were big and tasty. Also if you go, try the Creole cole slaw and the thin sliced onion rings.

My second trip to Mahony's within the past year--and it was every bit as good as my visit last Summer. Late night on a Tuesday ended up being no problem at all. The staff was friendly, and the outdoor dining on a warm night on Magazine Street was fantastic. The Peacemaker is indeed a worthy po-boy, but the star of... More

Although I visited Mahony's on a prior trip, I felt that I was not fully qualified to review my poboy experience until a tried a couple other places. I have since done so, and I am happy to report this place was by favorite. I had the roast beef, which I highly recommend. It was very juicy and flavorful. The... More

Heard about Mahony's from Diners, drive ins and dives that highlighted the peacemaker poboy. We were told that it would be one hour for our food even though the restaurant wasn't all that busy. We waited one hour and 20 minutes for 3 sandwiches. The food was good (not good enough for the wait by any stretch of the imagination).... More

For my first Po-boy I was pleasantly surprised. Root Beer glazed Po-boy was really good and drinking local brewed Root Beer made with cane sugar was an added treat. Enjoyed the meak and my visit to Magazine St.

On a recommendation we stopped here for our "last" Po boy of vacation. The staff were not all that friendly. Didn't "like" their jobs as I like to say. But the food was okay. The dirty fries were the best. We ordered green fried tomatoes that were served in wedges versus the traditional slices, so I didn't really like them.... More

Went straight here after checking into our hotel. (Emeril suggested it on TV.) Had a HUGE shrimp po'boy with more shrimp than we could eat! It was delicious. Fries and sodas were huge as well. Best part of it (2nd to the po'boy) was sitting on the porch. We just ate, talked, laughed, and lingered at a table on the... More

If it's a po- boy u seek in the garden district, do not pass go and collect $200, go directly to Mahoney's. The "peacemaker" with oysters, bacon and cheddar should be illegal it is so good.
