"I ate here twice during my weekend stay in New Orleans. Both times the experience was chill casual and good affordable eats. I had the Le Pig Mac and Cajun Ribs on my first visit. The pig mac is what its advertised as, a fancu pork big mac. The ribs were well seasoned and easy to eat off the bone. Second time around I got the Cubano as recommended by the cashier, it was a solid sandwhich that paired well with the tables hot sauces. My roommate got the pork belly sandwhich both times, infact it was this samdwhich which impressed him so much that we went the second time so he could have it again!"

"TLDR: Cochon Butcher has always been a local legend, and now with a Michelin Bib Gourmand which is well deserved. I have been coming to Cochon Butcher ever since the late, great Anthony Bourdain recommended it, and it has only gotten better over time. Fast forward to 2025, and seeing them finally receive a Michelin Bib Gourmand feels like well earned recognition. I brought my wedding party here for our rehearsal lunch, and it could not have gone better. The staff was incredible. We called ahead since we had a large group, and they kindly reserved a section for us so we could enjoy our meal together. Everyone was blown away by how exceptional the food was for what is considered “fast casual.” We practically ordered the entire menu, from the BBQ shrimp to the Cochon Muffaletta, the Cochon burger, and the boudin links. Every single dish was outstanding. The flavors, the portions, and the consistency were all on point. The drink menu deserves special mention too. The beer, wine, and cocktail list is excellent. The Hogwash Old Fashioned was the star of the show. The glass is rinsed with pork fat before mixing, giving it a subtle smoky depth that makes it unforgettable. We chose to sit outside since it was a beautiful day, and it made the experience even more enjoyable. Surrounded by good friends, great food, and the relaxed energy of New Orleans, it was a meal to remember. Michelin may have just discovered Cochon Butcher, but we have known for years that it is something special."

"I got a muffaletta here because I hear it's just one of those things in New Orleans you've gotta try (just in general). The place seemed packed but they served me really quick. It has a great vibe. The sandwich they made was delicious."

"If you’re anywhere near the CBD or at a convention, you have got to go here. Yes the line is super long, but it moves incredibly fast because unlike so many other places these guys know what they’re doing when it comes to getting you food as fast as possible. And the food is incredible. I had the duck pastrami one day and the pork belly sandwich the second. Both were incredibly good and while the oh-so-cool bartender told me that the duck pastrami was a small plate - It’s so rich you only need that. This place is so great I bought a T-shirt. Plus, it’s got Star Wars decor all over the place and openly gay friendly. It’s kinda heaven."

"Food, atmosphere etc. was amazing. Service was 10x better. Our attending waitress was MK and she was insanely attentive, kind, and helpful in giving recommendations on where to go during our time in NOLA. We went to at least four of her recommendations and loved all of them. The food was stellar; fresh, came fast, smelled amazing, tasted even better. Not if, WHEN I come back to NOLA I will come back to Cochon and I hope to see MK again to thank her for her hospitality!!!"
