Entrepreneur Murray Tate opened NOLA Poboys after Hurricane Katrina devastated the city. At that time, there were almost no restaurants open. During the first Jazz & Heritage Festival after Katrina, a food critic for the Gambit Weekly gave Murray a glowing review and the rest was history. Sink your teeth into an outstanding Shrimp Po-Boy with all of its classic fixings.
