Stephanie MOctober 21, 2016I got the beef spare rib sandwich instead of the fried chicken - and it was quite delicious! Meat was very tender.
Real Cheap EatsNovember 12, 2011The oyster po' boy ($8.50) "is fully “dressed,” which on a New Orleans sandwich denotes the addition of lettuce, tomato, mayo & pickles, and, on Orchard St., also calls for Tabasco, ketchup & lemon." Read more
Felix SargentNovember 16, 2014Low key but super delicious. The beef sandwich is made with homemade horseradish, and it's bloody delicious.
Joanna LinJuly 13, 2013Now serving Hell or High Watermelon Ale to go with your biscuit sandwich! Perfect pairing.
Alexandra LevitasJune 7, 2017The portions aren't very big, but the sandwiches are delicious. Both the Chicken and Oyster sandwiches were stellar and unusual compared to your average sandwich.- Max WendkosApril 28, 2019Jeremiah Stone, chef/co-owner of Contra, recommends the Fried Chicken and Biscuit sandwich.
Gentrifried ChickenNovember 6, 2011"Super affordable ($6.50) and they make the gravy and bread the chicken right in front of you. I swore I could taste a hint of cinnamon in the gravy, I’ll have to confirm on my next visit." Read more
You can get 3 "ben-yays" for $1. The chickory and po-boys are bomb. Also there's beer!
Kathryn DJune 1, 2019New Orleans expats will be pleasantly surprised. For vegetarians, choose the Veggie over Grass.
Dustin LeeApril 21, 2015Don't be fooled by the size, one chicken biscuit is actually enough for a meal. Add chips or beignets and you'll be in for the itis
Samuel ShermanJanuary 8, 2017All sandwiches are amazing. I suggest trying all of them if you get a chance
Alex RobertsonJune 29, 2021“CHICKEN” is excellent—chicken is cooked so well—but Anna loved “PORK” (dat mustard) even more
AntonioDecember 15, 2015The chicken biscuit was delicious, but if you have a big appetite like me, definitely get two of them.
Marisa ValenteJanuary 23, 2022Biscuits are the best I’ve had in nyc. Chicory coffee and great prices.

Anoop RanganathMarch 20, 2012The buttermilk biscuit with fried chicken, cole slaw, and gravy is the best I've had in New York
Sean McKenzieNovember 27, 2011Chicken and buttermilk biscuit can be described in one word: Heaven. Authentic southern decor in an urban setting. Win.
AmateurConciergeJanuary 17, 2015The chicken biscuit is reminiscent of a thanksgiving sandwich. Shrimp po boy may be the menu's weakness

Gabriel SmithApril 10, 2011Coffees perfect, beef is bomb! The bread they use is bangin! And if you don't like jelly on your biscuit do it with honey it's almost better.
Tim RecchionMarch 6, 2014The fried chicken sandwich on a biscuit is one of my favorite sandwiches of all time!!
Eduardo SantanaFebruary 9, 2012The Beef Sandwich is absolutely delicious. Soft toasted Challah and a touch of Horseradish -can't be beat.
Bry GApril 15, 2017The Po Boy and Chicken Sandwiches. I can say nothing bad about the food. Phenomenal.
Don't hesitate, just get the half oyster, half shrimp po boy, jalepeno chips, and a ginger iced tea.
