Review Gumbo Jeaux's - Houston

BLACK OWNED BUSINESSES! Ms. Ronnie is throwing down in that kitchen!!!! Her food is TOO GOOD!! If you closed your eyes and ate, you'd swear you were in Louisiana. The daiquiris are LETHAL, especially if you get the Long Island one. Customer service was top notch as well, the owner is such a cool guy. You've got to try it out!!! And they have a awesome rewards program. I already get a free bowl of gumbo on my next visit!

I ordered the fried catfish and shrimp and sweet potato fries were on point . Very crispy and just the right taste. I like it stupid hot so just ask for Louisiana hot sauce if you need that kick. … beans n rice were on point , with sausage and ground beef and all the spices that made it all nicest ….. don’t for get to grab A Daiquiri!!! They are crazy LA hurricane strong !!!!!!!

I had been craving some good fried catfish and had heard good things about this place, so I decided to give it a shot. The catfish was AMAZING!! And the tartar sauce was truly homemade and had a wonderful herbiness to it!! The shrimp were also good, if a bit over cooked. The fries are large, hand-cut and seasoned very nicely. A few reviews mentioned the saltiness of the food, I did not find this to be the case. All good food, especially fried southern food, must be well seasoned - which was the case here. Placed my order online - and it did take longer than the estimated time, but not that big a deal for hot, fresh good food! Hoping to try the famous pasta and the gumbo on a future visit.

Delicious.. I love their catfish opelousas.. The fried shrimp on top are amazing. The batter is peppery but not too spicy. The dirty rice is also yummy and they add veggies to the platter as well. One of my favorite lunch spots in the area. Staff is friendly. I usually take half to go or I would be sleeping at work hahaha. They are pretty busy at lunch.

Absolute awesome food and service. Roni at the front counter was a delight to see and very knowledgeable of their menu. Jaime hooked it up in the back! Food didn’t take very long to come out and was EXTREMELY FRESH AND FLAVORFUL. They have a nice kick to the Étouffée. Definitely will be visiting again 🙃

The woman who was behind the counter also made our food, she was the most polite person i’ve ever encountered! She made us feel right at home & welcomed. It was extremely nice to talk to one of the men & get to know more about them & their restaurant while waiting on our food. Their catfish was THEE absolute BESSSSTT!!! Their bread was so fireeee & their fried shrimp too. We can’t wait to come back again!

I have been here more than a handful of times. I have had the east Texas hotlinks, which are a nostalgic treat for me. The gumbo was good, very good. I put the Crystal in it and aaahhhyyyeaah. I would definitely recommend it. I've also had the boudin and some people might find it a bit soft, bit the flavor was spot on with a saltine and a dab of hot sauce. Crawfish etouffee is is my favorite dish but there's was a bit thick. I like a bit thinner roux, but once again they never lack on flavor. The service is fine and the setting is a strip center, but they do play some good music to enjoy your lunch with. I recommend to give this spot a try. The food is good.

Saw them on Facebook and stopped in. Place had a down home Louisiana feel to it. I had my mind and stomach on some Crawfish Étouffée and was not disappointed.😊

Jeaux’s is Great! I haven’t had a bad menu item yet. Catfish is cooked to perfection. Rice and vegetables are just right. Sweet tea is on point. And, they have a hot sauce wall! Staff is super friendly and helpful for new folks. Shout out to China, she’s a true professional.

WOW!!! We saw the Facebook page by luck and decided to drive all the way from Sugarland to try it out. Let me tell you as soon as we walked un we were greated by a friendly young lady. The menu has plenty of options but we already knew what we wanted cause we had seen it on Facebook. The gumbo is the best Ive ever had, the fish and shrimp were perfectly battered and fried and the crab cake was real crab and delicious. We will definitely be returning. It was GREAT food at GREAT prices. You cant get this anywhere else. I recommend it to everyone. See you soon Gumbo Jeaux's!

Ordered take out for a bunch of people. Lady on the phone was super nice and easy to order. I got the shrimp taco and substituted cup of gumbo for the side. Gumbo was good but the shrimp taco only had 3 small shrimp. It was not enough protein for the taco. The ratio of gumbo to rice varied a lot too. I had 85/15 gumbo to rice while my coworker had 40/60 gumbo to rice. Needless to say he was not happy. Place is new and working out the kinks. Construction is insane in the area but I'll be back.

Had a taste for boudin balls so I came here and ordered a few other things to go. Food was fresh and tasted amazing. Next thing I know I found myself coming back again the next couple of days! The atmosphere is welcoming and laid back, everyone is so polite and attentive to the customers needs. Black owned and they have all races coming in to enjoy the great food and service. I definitely recommend anyone to come here if you want great, fresh food.

And the daiquiri are the best I've ever had!. Great place to come and chill, have dune drinks and eat. I'll definitely come back!! 😁😁
