Mediocre. May be a little bit better than that. But definitely not soul food or true Louisiana cuisine. There’s some thing that’s just missing. The portions are filling. The beignets are way too thick. The rice and beans and jambalaya… Meh.
Also had one of the sandwiches. Decent pulled pork.
Location had several swarms of flies flying around the dining room

We found this place by accident after getting off the metro rail and walked in to get some snacks. Shaggy the cashier was awesome when managing all the customers since it was packed. He assisted everyone who needed help with something and checked everyone one out with little wait time. I ordered red beans and rice with cornbread beignet hush puppies. We also had a root beer from back east. It was a bit pricey but we enjoyed everything and had a great experience.
Got takeout prior to watching an opera at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion and ordered online for pickup. We got a muffuletta as well as the seafood platter to split among four of us. The muffuletta was very heavy on the bread and not so much on the meat. I enjoyed the seafood platter more, which came with fried oysters, catfish, shrimp, and fries. They gave us remoulade, tartar sauce, and ketchup on the side. Credit cards accepted. Counter service if you dine in. Street parking. Employees were friendly.
First time ever having food from here.
It's unique with a store and restaurant making it easy to find what you want while having great food.
There's parking on the side.
I will return whenever I travel Bank to LA

Had a wonderful experience here! Enjoyed the shop aspect (on the side), with authentic Louisiana hush puppy batter, craft beer, cafe du monde coffee, hot sauces etc.
The food was bomb, just how you’d expect at a Po’ boy place in NOLA. I got the oyster fish (fried oysters, catfish) and my date got the fried shrimp po’ boy. Both were excellent; fresh bread, solid dressings, and hefty portions. Tasted great with hot sauce!
All in all a great spot that I hope continues to thrive for years to come.

Craw Mac Deluxe - crawfish, shrimp, andouille sausage w/ side of corn bread / 5 🌟!
I have know about Little Jewel for a long time now. I go once or twice a year. The owner/chef is often there and he is a boisterous and fun character who clearly cares about his guests.
I have had many po boys here but the chef turned me on to the craw mac a while ago and I often find myself thinking about it, it is that good. It has a Cajun spice to it and it is loaded with proteins. You have to order the deluxe to get the side of corn bread and I recommend it to mop up the juices.
Chinatown has been home recently to some excellent culinary creative chefs but Little Jewel has been around since it transformed into a foodie zone. Check them out if you're in the area and are hankering for some Cajun cuisine.

Talk about a true jewel.. more like gem. This place does creole food right and I mean right. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu.
The must get items for first time people are the shrimp po boy, a side whether it’s zucchini sticks or mozzarella sticks, and a delicious drink.
This place is an easy 5 stars for food and the service is pretty fast for how fresh it is. So good and a must
