The place was clean and nice, if a little understaffed. The rice in the gumbo was slightly undercooked but the fried shrimp was excellent as well as the fries. A good place to stop at and grab something nice quickly, would come back.

The food was cold and loaded with salt to cover up the horrible taste the gumbo tasted like it was cooked in a microwave in a styrofoam Bowl tasted like plastic. French fries were cold and greasy. The shrimp was soggy covered with cayenne pepper. And the person playing the piano it was so loud you couldn't hear the person next to you talk.

Food is okay, service is terrible. If you want a waitress with an attitude who will ignore your table for an hour then throw your food on the table and walk away, this is the place for you.Even though I wanted to pay the bill and leave with boxes, the manager was nice and offered to comp the bill.Due to service, or lack there of, from the waitress, I will never return.

We had a great dinner at Gumbo Krewe. The staff was extra friendly and the live music kept my two year old entertained.

Looking for something new to try I stumbled across this little restaurant. There were enough seating options and there seemed to be a large room in the back, possibly for events. There are daily specials and menu has a number of options to choose from. Saturday and Sundays bottomless mimosas are also offered, and who doesn't like bottomless mimosas? Happy hour every hour is offered 7 days a week. If you're interested in live music, certain nights of the week there is entertainment while you dine. I started off with the seafood boulettes appetizer. 4 seafood boulettes filled with local gulf shrimp, crawfish and crab meat fried and served with a dipping sauce. The ingredients are all mixed together so don't expect to have lump cramp crawfish pieces within the boulettes. Overall, this appetizer and it was perfect. If this was offered as a meal in a larger portion I'd certainly order. I truly hope this is something they will consider. The cornbread stuffed pork chop was ok. No much stuffing and just a bit too charred, but overall it was a decent meal. The side of macaroni and cheese was just ok, lacking a bit of seasoning, otherwise I'd recommend if you're not too picky. The Texas Bacon BBQ Burger was satisfying. I requested it medium well, although it came well done a little extra bbq sauce did the trick. Stuffed between a brioche bun was a beef patty, bacon, bbq sauce, shredded cheddar cheese, lettuce, and fried onion strings. My side of sweet potato fries were fried crispy, I wished they weren't cold. Seemed as if they'd been sitting a while. I left filled, leaving little room for dessert. I'm Looking forward to returning. I must add that my waitress was extremely pleasant and handled a number of tables by herself. It seems they were short staffed, nothing surprising given the times we are in. Nonetheless, it's a restuarant Id recommend stopping by if you're in the area.

This place is surprisingly great, the food comes out hot the first time. Feels like a mini Deanies. Fine dining at a affordable price

The food was so good and I loved the decor and the colors of the restaurant and the waitress was so nice as well it my first time here and is was great I will becoming back
Some things were better than others but overall it wasn't very good. Either had no flavor or some things had too much of one flavor.

First time here. I'm gonna give a strong 4 stars as I would eat here again. The main issue is the seafood isn't seasoned as well as I'm accustomed to growing up in NOLA. It was fresh as all get out though. I had a bowl of seafood gumbo to start. Lots of shrimp which I liked. Nice taste. I'm not a big fan of gumbos with the tomato stock but it was subtle enough not to ruin it. I would definitely eat this again. Not the best around but worth a repeat. My main dish was grilled catfish which was on special and I had a side of garlic mashed potatoes. Potatoes were good. Catfish were on the thin smaller side so I was given several pieces of them. It was tasty enough. My sister had a catfish and shrimp platter with fries. The shrimp were huge. They tasted very fresh. And we're fried very well. But the lack of seasoning was again a small issue. But for the shrimp not a huge one and I'd eat a platter of those by themselves next time. The fried catfish didn't taste like it had any seasoning. It was well prepared and fresh as all get our. But my sister said it was like eating fried air without seasoning. She said she would definitely stick with just a shrimp platter next time. The fries were fries. Good enough and tasty. All in all I'd go back here for the shrimp and the gumbo. They have a half po boy/cup of gumbo meal I'd like to give a try next time I'm in the city. Thanks for having us.

I’m from STL and when I visited I had tried this place and it is to die for. Staff is super friendly and food is amazing. I had it for dinner and came back the next day for lunch. Both of the gumbos are amazing and I also tried the seafood platter and salad. Everything was perfect!

Love this neighborhood gem! Everything is delicious from the seafood to the pasta to the burgers and spicy chicken sandwich. My only complaint honestly was their namesake. The gumbo was meh, but would still highly recommend this place! Great happy hour and live music, too!
