Stumbled across this restaurant looking for something to eat on Valentines - AMAZING❗️❗️ We will be back very soon. The bread pudding and pie is to die for. Highly recommend to anyone looking for authentic Cajun food. Thank you for making our Valentine’s Day special ❤️
You cannot go wrong here. I got a full order of the drunk chicken over rice. My wife had the gumbo over rice and we split an order of Maque Choux over pasta. First off, the portions are HUGE, like I am a big dude that can get run off a buffet and one order fills me up. The drunk chicken is hands down my favorite with plenty of flavor and heat to back it up. The gumbo is DEVINE, succulent andouile sausage with the shrimp knocks it out of the park. Plus each order had two pieces...read full review
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 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.
