Worst Burger Around!. Horrible, dry, overcooked, small, bland and if you ask for mushrooms be ready for horrible soggy canned mushrooms!!! Even the drinks cant elevate this place!

Down-And-Dirty, Delicious Dive: Port of Call, N.O.. Port of Call is a New Orleans gem, a real, honest-to-goodness JOINT that does not pretend to be anything but a dive (New Orleans-speak for "Casual Restaurant-Bar for the Locals"). The signature hamburgers are cooked perfectly and served with huge baked potatoes, which are also cooked perfectly. (There are no french fries at Port of Call & if you are wise, you will not even care!!) Be ready to load that baked potato and worry not about cholesterol or fat!! Steak is available if you would rather go easy on the carbohydrates; if you really want to be good, Port of Call serves killer delicious salad with killer delicious homemade dressings. Beer is cold and plentiful and there is a fully stocked bar; but, if you REALLY want insight into the name of this establishment, order one of the house concoctions called The Monsoon. When this rum storm blows you up, up and away, you will be glad to be safely moored at Port of Call.

World's Best Burger. Best Burger I've ever tasted, and im a huge fan of burgers. I use to travel around the US for burgers.............Los Angeles for the "In and Out burger", very tasteful, San Antonio for "Chris Madrids", very juicy, and everywhere else u can think of.

But my home town New Orleans keeps the crown for the world's best burger at "Port of Call"

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, be prepared to wait, and parking minimal.

Best Burger Evar!. You drive down the street and see a small sign that reads "Port Of Call." Nothing special. You realize there is no parking at all, and spend 15-30 minutes parking then walking to the place. You walk into the packed restaurant and wait about 10 minutes until you realize that you have to find the hostess and tell her your name and number in your party. You have to wait an hour to be seated, and wonder why your friend would ever refer you to this weird eating establishment. Once you finally sit, you order the cheeseburger your friend told you to order. He/she said it was outstanding. You reply to yourself, "It better be. This wait is killing me!" After a 20 minute wait for the burger, you hold it in you hands and try to fit it in between your wide-open lips. You bite down. "My, God," you say aloud, "Where has this been all my life!?" You devour the sandwich and loaded baked potato. You're stuffed and overly satisfied. You feel as if you should pay the waitress an extra $20 for the unbelievably delicious orgy that was in your mouth and now in your stomach. As you leave the small dining place, you smile and ask yourself "When am I going back?"

Pros: Anything food related

Cons: Wait (but so worth it)
