You have officially found the Queen of Gumbo!!! I know you've been looking, I was too. If you've landed here, someone up above loves you. Everything on the menu is the truth, and yes, this is that real southern gumbo! We order pots every Christmas! Make sure you say hi to Sal, the hardest working gal you can find in a Soul Food Kitchen!
They shouldn’t have to post a sign at the register explaining why the pricing has changed.. absolutely due to inflation ! If grocery stores & gas stations don’t care we should never question our own.. support black businesses especially when the food & service is great! The staff at both locations are helpful & professional..See you guys soon and I want my turkey again for thanksgiving it always a fam favorite! Thank you all at Sal’s Gumbo Shack

Sals is the real deal cajun and southern food. Jambalaya, gumbo, catfish, fried chicken. All the right sides, greens ( perfect tang ) , rice and gravy, red beans and rice, mac and cheese, corn bread. And many other great entrees. Never had a bad meal yet. Favorites are the f jambalaya ( nicely spicey) and the fried catfish dinner ( enough for two people to split).

Ordered the large bbq shrimp , shrimp and grits… was told about 20 min, waited 50 min , shrimps had soggy shells couldn’t hardly eat them, last time I had them it was no shells, bait and switch ….. still had poop in the shrimps, couldn’t eat them… sauce was bland and just tasted like buttery oil. The shrimp and grits were okay, but…. Not worth the money or the time I waited. I liked this place but this experience was so disappointing I had to leave a review and will never go back. Customer service is the opposite of warm and friendly, very dry and dim . Made me sad to feel like I can’t patron this black owned business because I just can’t believe what I just paid for and tasted …

The Food is Fantastic and the Service was Outstanding!! Such a Friendly Place and the Food is Amazing!! I would Highly Recommend them!!A+++
To be honest the Louisiana Gumbo wasn't very good. The shrimp tasted old...and the serving was tiny for the price. I was excited to eat it...and I was disappointed. I don't think I'll go back.

It tastes good and all but they take super long to make your order, I called in around 1:15, was told it would be ready in 15 mins, I get there 15 mins later and im told to wait 5 minutes, I dont get my food until 2pm. Might go again but this was super disappointing
