Louisiana Creole Gumbo: Reviews & Ratings
Love the red beans & rice with sausage. I had a Birthday coupon to use. The staff was clueless how-to process it. Three people involved plus someone on the phone.
I saw you all on Fox2 News this morning and decided to try you and by my surprise the food was hot and awesome. I ordered thru doordash and I was so glad that the baked chicken diiner with greens and sweet potatoes was so good and real down south cornbread. Then I also the small prem gumbo was so awesome. We had been looking for an authentic Louisiana food and this restaurant fits the bill. I rate it a 10, so very good and we forgot the dessert.
My husband was missing his LCG fix as one of the rotating food trucks at GMs Tech Center. My first time trying it, I was impressed (b/c Cajun/Creole is not at the top of my list) The jambalaya was delicious- with the perfect amount of curry & heat, the red beans and rice were awesome as well, the Mac & cheese was tasty and the greens were the best I've ever had!! The catfish was disappointing- it had a funky taste- I'm pretty sure they needed to change out the fry oil. I love cornbread- but the cornbread muffins has zero flavor, super bland so that was kind of a bummer too. No hot sauce, tartar or butter included, but the everything listed in my first paragraph was SO good, I still give it 4 out of 5 stars!
I came in her for one dish only per the recommendation of a friend. That dish was the red beans and rice with cajun sausages. And I have to admit it was pretty tasty. I got a large order because I didn't notice that there was a smaller serving size. I wished that I had gotten the smaller size after realizing it was an option but after tasting it, I didn't mind having the larger portion to eat more later. I was told that their other dishes were tasty as well so I definitely plan on trying more things. The red beans and rice will definitely be a staple though.
