Big' Umm...s is one of the longest established businesses at the Yellow Green Farmer's Market in Hollywood, FL. Owned by a very nice couple who moved from New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina hit in 2005. They have some of the finest, tastiest Cajun/New Orleans food selection you will ever find. Gumbo, Jambalaya, po' boy sandwiches and much, much more. Put in your order and while you shop, they prepare your fresh food and they will call you on your phone when it's ready. I brought home some yakamein soup and I can't wait to try it. read more

Etouffee was really good and made to order. It was loaded with shrimp and crawfish. The place is a little hard to find at the Yellow Green Market, but it's worth the effort. read more

I haven't had some good southern food in a while ! Lucky for us, they ran out of the vegan vegetable mac & cheese, so they free styled something similar with noodles. The heat was just right, the sauce was fantastic and the vegetables were delicious. The owners were kind and friendly! Definitely recommend if you appreciate New Orleans cuisine :) read more

It's hard to pick a spot to eat at yellow green because there are so many options, so I was really looking forward to finally trying this place. Wanted shrimp and grits but they were out so for the gumbo and Mac and cheese. Gumbo was ok, Mac and cheese wasn't, but the atmosphere with table in the back gives them some extra points. I still want to try the shrimp and grits though read more

Best crawfish/shrimp etouffee this side of the French Quarter. They know Cajun and creole. It's like having these dishes in someone's home. So good. read more

So I've been craving home cooking without having to cook it or go home to Louisiana to get it. About August I came across Big Umm at the Hollywood Farmers market and baby it was ON! Now the market will be open Thursday and Friday too and I swear I might start doing that switch the food from the container to the pot thing I saw on television! Try Everything! Literally walk in and PICK you'll LOVE it ALL! read more

Yesterday, I was craving some good ole New Orleans Cajun food. So I yelped it and came Across this place. It's located at the farm market. It's not a full restaurant but they do have two tables located behind their place. The owners, Ellis and Charlotte (sorry if your name is spelled incorrect) are from New Orleans and are both incredibly nice. We ordered the gumbo, crawfish/shrimp étouffée, and crawfish bread. Oh man, all were good. I added some spice to the étouffée to bring it up a notch since they make it mild. Once I did that, it was the étouffée i once remembered. The gumbo had the perfect combination of meat, rice, and flavor. The crawfish bread was bigger than it looked on the menu. It was like a crawfish sandwich served on this soft French bread. Very yummy. read more

First visiting farmers market and sure glad we stopped for food here! Cooked when you order and the 16oz was the perfect size to sample. I had the mac jambalaya and will definitely repeat when I visit again. read more

Outstanding service and food! It's so hard to come by authentic food nowadays. Came here to try their Cajun shrimp/crawfish sandwich due to other reviews on yelp and I was not disappointed at all! The sandwich itself is huge and filled with lots of meat, thank god! Definitely a sharable entree. The owner herself is so sweet and accommodating. Our family can't wait to come back here to eat again! read more

I found this through searching for shrimp and grits and I am glad I didn't turn away from the parking headache that is YG Farmer's Market. Located at Booth 302, I ordered jambalaya and some étouffée along with my original craving for shrimp and grits. Order did take close to 40 mins but I browsed around the rest of market getting fruits and veggies in the mean time. Definitely any 12 oz order can be enough for two or second serving. Flavors were amazing, no skimping on portions. Very friendly service Recommend anyone to check em out No pics this time around but others posted reflect accurately. read more

The food here is always amazing. This is our first stop every time we visit the Farmers Market. The shrimp and grits are a must s well as the crawfish bread. The crawfish etouffe got us hooked the first time we tried it, we usually bring that home to go for a future dinner. If you stop by the Yellow Green Farmers Market you have got to stop by Big Umm's booth. read more

Omg, the best Cajun food in South Florida! Jambalaya, that they will adjust the heat on (thank goodness!). I never knew the joy of shrimp and grits before. Shrimp bread too big for one meal. And the nicest owners. read more

Ate here a few months back. Just now remembered to leave a review. I highly recommend this place. Food was great! read more

I am originally from New Orleans and one of my pet peeves are places trying to imitate our food. It never works so any time I see an "authentic" Nola cuisine advertised, I get a little apprehensive to eat there. However, this place is authentic and so happy I found it in south Florida! I was shopping in the Hollywood farmers market and ran across it. After talking to the owners I found out they relocated after Hurricane Katrina and from that moment I was sold. Everything I tried was delicious! Highly recommend. read more

If you are looking for authentic Cajun food, look no further. Hidden in the Yellow Green Farmer's Market in Fort Lauderdale is a delicatessen that will make your mouth water for flavors from the French Quarter. I split a half of a delicious muffuletta with my partner and it tastes as good as the Central Grocery and Deli in New Orleans. Unlike the chain Muffuletta, Big' Umm...s has that genuine homemade olive salad that keeps the sandwich moist. The couple that owns this little gem are super sweet. Definitely with a stop in this wholesome and vivacious atmosphere. read more

This little spot is amazing. Southern hospitality and New Orleans cuisine in a laid back atmosphere. They are only open on Saturdays & Sundays as they are located in the Yellow & Green Market. I strongly recommend the jambalaya and the gumbo. You can even get the jambalaya served over mac n cheese which is a nice changeup. The owner provides great service. They accept credit cards too. Sit in their little garden in the back for an authentic experience. See my pictures on yelp! read more

Best muffuletta I've had in a long, long time. The olive salad is homemade, the bread is toasted just right and the meats and cheese are delicious. Warm, welcoming service was a bonus. We'll definitely be back for gumbo, etouffe, anything else they offer. Love this place and these great folks! read more

Great food, great folks! We live in North Florida and come to this area several times a year to visit family. Always try to make the Yellow Green Farmers Market and a favorite place to get meals is Big Umms. Delicious REAL cajun food. Made to order, spiced how you like! And for those looking for Gluten-free/dairy free opinions the Jambalaya is so tasty. My husband's fave is the etouffe. (We lived two years in Lafayette, LA and this stuff is equal to any we had there!) read more

I found a legit piece of the Big Easy in South Florida! This family has blessed us in bringing there authentic New Orleans food to us. We found yakamein here when we couldn't even find it in the French Market! They are a really loving, caring family that genuinely put who they are into their food. And I only just met them, they opened there place up like we were already part of their family. I wish they were a bit closer to us but it's good to know we can come down here every once in a while. Support these good local families! read more

I went there today expecting the same gumbo I got a few weeks back. My wife is so upset right now. We ordered crawfish with vegetables in our gumbo but got no crawfish. The gumbo is horribly watery. My wife is so annoyed because this is her favorite thing. She even refuses to eat it. Yikes! Don't think we should go back there. read more

Native NOLA living in Orlando and visiting family in Hollywood. Saw Big' Umms New Orleans and that they had vegetarian and vegan options and I was sold. Tasted the food and I was transported back home! Great food and great people. Definitely recommend to vegetarians and vegans alike. I can't say enough about how much I enjoyed the food. Thank you for transporting me back home! read more

As i was leaving the market today i noticed a small sign for Bigumms. I had a muffaletta for lunch and etoufee with gumbo for dinner. i wish i would have bought more. Charla and Ellis are the real deal. If you like New Orleans style food this is the place. Cant wait until next Sunday. read more

So happy I found this spot! Being a saints fan and a lover of all things Cajun there aren't too many spots done here to get good quality Cajun food. Found my new weekend spot and will definitely be enjoying all of the menu. Also really great customer service. Makes you feel like family! Stop by and get some gumbo and take some pralines home! Who dat!?! read more

5 stars all the way. Best authentic cajun cuisine in South Florida hands down! Everything is outstanding if you like it homestyle. Jambalaya, crawfish etouffe, red beans and rice with smoked sausage, gumbo, crawfish bread, the works. And it's all cooked with a lotta love and a lotta soul. I hit up Yellow Green market and get a couple of quarts to go, usually the jambalaya and red beans with a couple extras. MmmmMmmm! Mouth is watering just thinking about it! read more

A little slice of New Orleans Located in the Yellow Green Farmers Market. Healthy Creole cuisine, need I say more? Loved the Red Beans with brown rice, and the Chicken Jambalaya is a must. Grab a small desert before you go, preferably anything with Praline. read more

My favorite spot in the Yellow Green farmer's market! Service is great, prices are great, and the authentic New Orleans cuisine is excellent!

It is a "must try" at the farmers market! read more
