This place is located inside the French market and is definitely worth trying. I haven’t had a Muffoletto since I was a kid and this place did not disappoint. It gave the same rich flavors that I remembered. Honestly it was better than the ones Ive had in the past. I definitely recommend!!

We love the gluten-free muffletta here! We always stop here when we visit the French Market and they never disappoint. Delicious!

Alright, y’all, let’s talk about Chef Juan Hernandez, a man who’s basically been to culinary boot camp on two continents and came out slinging Mediterranean magic. This guy’s story is a whole journey—born and raised in Spain, started cooking before most of us were allowed near a stove, and by the mid-’80s, he made his way to New Orleans. That’s where he really started leveling up, working in some of the city’s swankiest spots—think the Intercontinental Hotel, Petroleum Club, Hilton Hotel. You name it, he probably cooked there.
But here’s where it gets even better. Chef Juan eventually headed back to Spain, rolling up his sleeves at places like The Palace in Madrid, serving VIPs, celebrities, and even royalty. Imagine making a dish so good that kings are asking for seconds. That’s the kind of chef we’re talking about. By 2001, he made his triumphant return to New Orleans, opening Madrid, a restaurant so good it became a go-to for senators and local food critics. The man knows how to feed a crowd, and he feeds them right.
These days, you can find Chef Juan at Alberto’s Cheese and Wine Bistro in the French Market, where he’s still doing what he does best: turning out Mediterranean-European dishes that’ll make you rethink your whole life. Fresh ingredients? Check. Beautiful presentations? Check. Prices that won’t have you questioning your decisions? Double-check. And all of this in a laid-back, casual spot with a classic New Orleans vibe.
Locals, tourists, foodies from all over—they all end up at Alberto’s for Chef Juan’s cooking. Whether you’re hunting him down online or stumbling upon him while wandering the French Market, one bite of his food, and you’ll get it. It’s not just a meal; it’s a little taste of Spain and New Orleans all wrapped up in one delicious package. So, if you’re in the Big Easy, do yourself a favor: go find Chef Juan. Your taste buds will thank you.

This place is AWESOME!!
Their smoked salmon sandwich was better than Rib Room or the Napoleon House!!
I also had an Irish coffee with fresh cream.
This place is at the French market.
They deserve a cafe of their own!!
We ate here twice in 3 days. It was recommended by an N.O. local. ❤️

Great lunch option in the French Market area of New Orleans. As this was my first tine here, and as a vegetarian, I opted for the 1/2 portion with f the veggie muffuletta and it was delicious.
There was a fairly longer-than-expected wait after placing my order (no customers were awaiting orders at the time), but that’s a minor criticism. The service was sufficient and the food was satisfying. Would recommend this experience as one of the many great culinary options in the city.

Since the general store has been closed, this has become m favorite muffuletta sandwich location. It is conveniently located at the French market, staff is fast, professional and friendly. There are many tasty options, but I always order the muffuletta. The size seems to have decreased with time and the prices have gone up but that is sign of the times. It is still good delicious treat good for sharing.

I normally wouldn’t write a review about a sandwich but this was such an amazing sandwich it was worth noting. The beet and warm goat cheese sandwich with spinach and balsamic on toasted multigrain bread was fantastic. I chose the stand because I saw veggie options and I was in the french market. If I come to NOLA again there will be a deliberate return visit.

Cannot recommend Alberto’s enough. If you find yourself in the area on the banks of the Mississippi and are waiting to get into Cafe Du Monde, immediately exit that line, head to the French Market – and thank me later.
Alberto’s is a family-run stand within the French Market. They have a full bar and outstanding food. If you’re wondering what to get, do not think twice and get the muffaletta. Satisfaction is 1000% guaranteed. They will ask you if you want a half or a whole. If you have two people, I would get a whole.
Now, if you haven’t tasted the culinary miracle that is a muffuletta – #1 I’m sorry. #2, go get one – but it has to be in NOLA and ideally from Alberto’s. The bread is fresh, the olive salad is divine, and the meats and cheese are just so delicious you will find yourself not talking to the person you’re sharing it with and just saying MMMMMMMMM for the next 10-20 minutes.
Warning: a muffuletta contains about 200% of your daily sodium, so do not even think about adding salt, drink plenty of water – and consider taking a Diurex.
Otherwise, enjoy! It is so worth it and I go out of way to get one from Alberto’s every time I visit NOLA (a few times a year) and it’s a perfect treat every time!

We were ready to try our first Muffuletta when we noticed they can make any sandwich Gluten Free. They won our vote. 2 people split a 1/2 and it was plenty. The olive salad was perfect. And the staff was fantastic and engaging.

Muffeletta is my favorite sandwich. Alberto’s was top ranked, so I wanted to grab one while I was in the area. Parking for the French market was rough. Expensive too. It’s an open air market, super touristy and the prices reflect that. I paid $8 for a quarter sandwich. The taste was phenomenal. I gotta say though, a little short on meat… But now I can say I ate a muffaletta in the French quarter.
