  • February 19, 2005
Quote: No trip to New Orleans is complete without some good Cajun food. The Gumbo Shop is the best value I've found in the French Quarter. The food is wonderful, and the prices are very reasonable. It is set in a small, unassuming building, but the... Read the full Gumbo Shop review

  • December 20, 2004
Quote: When you're traveling in a city that is very touristy, it is sometimes hard to know which restaurants are good and which are bad. Located smack dab in the middle of the French Quarter, The Gumbo Shop is a restaurant that is no tourist trap. We... Read the full Gumbo Shop review

The Gumbo Shop
Quote: Just a half-block from Jackson Square, The Gumbo Shop is a charming 1794 Creole cottage with a tiny garden patio in back. All gumbos in New Orleans are not created equal. Some are rather short of seafood. Simmered in a dark roux, served with crusty... Read the full Gumbo Shop review

  • August 15, 2004
Quote: The Gumbo shop had a simple menu of local cuisine (Creole and Cajun). Servings were ample and the service was excellent. They offer courtyard or inside dining. The restaurant was small as are most restaurants in the French Quarter. The food was... Read the full Gumbo Shop review

  • January 13, 2004
Quote: OK, the name says it all. They have gumbo. I thought it was kinda touristy, but hey, there's no kidding who you are and why you're there when you're in the Quarter. I can't say the restaurant was exceptional. The gumbo was good. The ambience... Read the full Gumbo Shop review

  • November 10, 2003
Quote: The food is not really French, it is regional cajun or Creole. There are specials on the menu worth looking at such as the three-course special price menu. Everything is delicious. I ordered a side of spinach that was wonderful, a chicken entre with... Read the full Gumbo Shop review

  • August 15, 2003
Quote: A small cafe-style restaurant about a block off of Jackson Square. We had great crawdads several times here while we were in town. We had different experiences with the other food. We had the Po-Boys a couple of times. For some reason, once the... Read the full Gumbo Shop review

  • 2 out of 5 stars by C_Wheel from Auckland, United Kingdom
  • January 3, 2003
Quote: Gumbo is another of New Orleans's traditional foods--it's like a spicy stew with rice. The Gumbo Shop, which is actually a restaurant, seemed an obvious place to try it. The service was prompt--possibly a little too much so, as you got the... Read the full Gumbo Shop review

  • 2 out of 5 stars by trailbos from Marquette, Michigan
  • February 1, 2002
Quote: The Gumbo Shop is a place where tourists get their cajun food, but it's probably not good enough to keep locals returning. The jambalaya is a bit dry and mild, but it tastes good if you don't know that other restaurants serve a spicier, more... Read the full Gumbo Shop review
