Stopped in today for the first time on Facebook recommendation, lady friend and I met Steve and talked at length about his food and where he gets his ingredients.

Amazing food! I had the oyster poboy and gumbo with potato salad. Suggestion from a Louisiana native, get the gumbo with a side of potato salad and dip potato salad in your gumbo. Staff were amazing and very pleased to hear they get a lot of their ingredients from Louisiana. I’ll definitely be going back.

Gumbo Stop Cafe offers authentic Cajun cuisine that impresses both regulars and first-time visitors. Their menu features flavorful dishes like the pork po' boy with gumbo, beer battered shrimp po' boy with jambalaya, shrimp etouffee, and red skin potato salad. The catfish etouffee is a highlight, and daily deals make dining affordable. The atmosphere gives a cozy, family restaurant vibe, and the service is friendly and welcoming. Although the space is limited, with only a few tables and a bar, the heavenly food and warm service make it a must-visit. Vegetarian options include red skin potato salad and red beans and rice. Many customers say the gumbo tastes just like the flavors from the Gulf Coast, with good roux, thyme, and bay leaves, bringing back fond memories. Visitors often enjoy the sampler dish, which includes étouffée, jambalaya, gumbo, and red beans, describing it as out of this world. Reviewers appreciate the New Orleans vibe and note that the food had all the expected flavors of Mardi Gras. The service is described as excellent, with meals coming out very quickly. The jambalaya and muffuletta sandwich have received praise, making it a great spot for Cajun food in West Virginia.
