"Stick with the hot sausage po boys. I am a New Orleans native and have been frequenting Gene's for many moons. I see alot of people on here giving Gene's flack. 1st off, YES, it is definetly a dive in a sketchy part of town and NO the workers are not particulary cheery. However, they are open 24 hours, (very few places in New Orleans are). At this place the hot sausage po boy is the star of the show, the french bread is crusty on the outside with just the right amount of chewiness, the patties are spicy but not too spicy, if you ask for it dressed you will get mayo, lettuce and pickles, they do not serve tomatoes and never did from what I remember. I hear the hamburger po boys are good too....

Hubby had 1/2 burger 1/2 sausage w/ chz grilled onions! Loved it!!! But be forewarned: if trying to lose weight or stay away from greasy foods, skip Genes! This dive is great for 'cheat ' days! Greasy but good!!

Hot sausage Po-boy...enough said. My wife and I absolutely 100% love the hot sausage patty po boys from Gene's. By far one of the best po boys NOLA has to offer. The neighborhood isn't the best, but honestly who cares...in the end it's all about the food. Needless to say Gene's hot sausage patty po boy with cheese, lettuce, pickles, and a drop of mayo will have you rushing to chew and swallow your current bite so you can get another one in. It's spicy, but not to spicy...the amount of flavor the patty's put out is outrageous! If your ever in the French Quarter and want a awesome po-boy go to Gene's...just make sure your CASH is in hand and your ready to order as soon as you walk in the door,...
