What our guests are saying

I experienced Gumbo to Geaux at the Ross Bridge farmer's market and my cup of seafood gumbo was phenomenal 😋 👌🏾. The flavors were SO Louisiana in a cup. It was chunky with meats, ample rice, and the roux tasted homemade. This was my first time with this restaurant but it won't be my last! I can't wait to try their shrimp and grits.

Kept walking past the trunk until the aroma wafting from it made me stop. Ordered the red beans and rice. Heavy bowl they gave me, and the smell that hit me after taking off the lid was amazing. First bite, heaven.

Love the gumbo! Tasted very close to our family's we eat back in Breaux Bridge, LA when we go visit. It's hard to find good gumbo outside Louisiana so Birmingham you have a treat. I highly recommend you giving them a try!
