Gumbo Ya Ya Reviews
We had Gumbo ya-ya cater our son’s graduation party and it was fabulous!! We had multiple cajun options from the restaurant for guests to choose from and at the end of the night people had gone back for 3rd and 4th servings!! We were so pleased, the owners were amazing and made sure our special event was enjoyed by all. No one walked away hungry and everyone complimented us on the food!! We will definitely use them again. Thank you so much!!
Gumbo’s has consistently great food, and they’re always friendly and helpful. The portion sizes are always more than generous as well. On top of that, the pricing is very reasonable. It’s my favorite go-to restaurant in Lexington.
Food was affordable, nice sized portions and friendly staff. We tried the gumbo, the jambalaya, and the voodoo red beans with cornbread. The food was not bad, but would suggest investing in some Cajun seasoning. Also, offer a way to heat up the cornbread and provide butter. It was however, one of the better meals I have had during my 5 week stay in Lexington! I would visit again!

Gumbo Ya Ya is a restaurant that has addressed past pricing issues by clearly displaying prices for sauce over jambalaya. The food is fresh and served promptly, with consistently great flavors. Popular dishes include the maque choux with cheesy grits, a spicy drunken chicken, and a vegan veggie pazole stew. Meals are generous in portion, and the garlic bread, while not vegan, is a favorite for mopping up sauces. Dietary options such as non-dairy are available. The staff is friendly and helpful, always ready to answer questions and ensure a great dining experience. There is also a variety of drinks, including fountain Ale 8, and customers can sample dishes before ordering. The pricing is very reasonable, making it a go-to restaurant in Lexington for many.
