The food is normally ammmazing but the last 2 times I came they had different workers and those workers just don't make the food as good as the owners. I was really disappointed in the smothered catfish. It was not giving what it normally gives😭💔 the tacos were ok but had hardly any gumbo filling and they were cold. I ate them as soon as she handed the to go bag to me so there was no reason they should have been cold. Please train your workers better. The food cost too much to be mediocre like it was. Bring the owners back pleaseeee 🙏

food was OK ? I'm not sure if I was at the right location.. I know they moved from the original local at the Valero, but this spot wasn't where I recall going about 2 yrs ago. The other spot was much nicer.

The gumbo tacos are the reason you come!!! I would recommend every time.
The food was unique & Great But They should move to the shell next door or they need to fix that store up that they are in but just order to go. I’m going back today
Went here after craving some Gumbo while on campus. So glad I went! They even had some gumbo infused tacos which were delicious! The gumbo was good too.

The seafood gumbo tasted like they used fish instead of just crab, shrimp and sausage. It was not good at all.

The food was good but not as good as one of their other locations. It has since closed. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The parking could have been better.

I had the pleasure of eating here the other day. I am currently writing this review while I’m on my way back for another serving of this delicious gumbo. For years I have been trying to cultivate places around Houston in my own mind that can cook gumbo the correct way with okra. I believe I found my front runner. The gumbo while on the spicier side is packed with flavor and they are not shy about the protein portions in the meal. I also had the pleasure of speaking with one owner and he enlightened me to their rich history in the city. They are currently renovating their storefront, I cannot wait to see how it comes out. The convenience of its location also allows for you to really enjoy your meal with whatever snacks you’d like afterwards along with any drink you could think of. I hope their expansion goes well across the city and cannot wait for a location a little closer to me at home, though the location right next to my daughters university is perfect for this cold season coming up for a warm bowl of what feels like home-cooked food. I paid between 10 and $15 per person because we each wanted the larger size portion of the gumbo with shrimp included.
Update: I had their boudin balls, DELICIOUS! The contrast of savory and sweet when using the sauce they give you. Based on the spice content of this food I highly recommend an ice sprite or sweet tea to compliments these Delicious meals.
