To the outsider, a po'boy is nothing more than a grinder, a hoagie, a sub, or any other name for sandwich known around the country, but Louisianians know the difference. That fresh French bread (Leidenheimer bread for the purists), dressed to perfection and piled sky-high with your choice of protein... it just hits differently than a sub/grinder. Of course, Louisiana is the king of the po'boy, and if you're looking for a good shrimp po'boy, you'll find it at Rocco's, a casual little restaurant in Louisiana with one of the best shrimp po'boys in the state.
Welcome to Rocco's, a casual po'boy shop located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
Locally owned and operated, this family-friendly eatery is a neighborhood favorite for hungry patrons looking to sink their teeth into a tasty po'boy or two.
NOLA native Troy "Rocco" Moreau grew up in New Orleans before going to LSU for college, where he had trouble finding a decent po'boy in the city. When he couldn't find anywhere that made a po'boy to his liking, he decided to open up his own restaurant where he could bring a little New Orleans to Baton Rouge.
The menu is full of Louisiana comfort food, including fried seafood platters, muffulettas, and gumbo.
They also make a mean burger.
Burger lovers can choose from four different beastly burgers, ranging from traditional to BBQ burgers.
From salads to spaghetti, there's something on the menu for everyone.
But the real stars of the show at Rocco's are the po'boys.
There are over 20 different po'boys on the menu, and the shrimp po'boy is a neighborhood favorite.
They don't skimp on the shrimp, that's for sure!
Get yours grilled or fried and dressed to perfection and get ready to indulge in one of the best po'boys you'll ever have.
Don't forget to grab a stack of napkins. You'll need them.
And don't forget to load up on their insanely delicious cheese fries. They're the best accompaniment to a tasty po'boy, after all.
Go big or go home, right?
