During one of the early visits we had to tell the waitress that the seafood gumbo needed to be heated up because it was at room temperature. I'm hopeful that they read these comments because another Yelper called it tepid temperature which I agree. This shouldn't happen at all! The flavor of the gumbo was fine but wished it was slightly thicker with more ingredients. The seafood fried sampler was fantastic! Perfectly fried and clean oil. The shrimp was plump and delicious. Overall a good restaurant that needs some attention to food temperature. I wanted to watch a NFL game on Fox and the poor waitress tried to change the channel but wasn't able to. They have TV's all over the restaurant but only ESPN?! It's a pseudo sports bar with no other sports channels.

Yelp led me here earlier this week for lunch and it's located in an unassuming strip center. Inside…read moreit's decorated with New Orleans and Mardi Gras themes and is a table service restaurant. It's the kind of eatery where the waitresses call you "baby" which is a respected Deep South Tradition. I ordered the 1/2 po boy & 1/2 gumbo lunch with a side dish (I chose baked potato salad) for $14. The food arrived about 10 minutes later. My sandwich was a grilled shrimp po boy on bread that tasted like it was from Gambino's. It was very good taste wise and I enjoyed it. Ditto on the cup of seafood gumbo with shrimp in it and with a good tasting roux too. Finally the baked potato salad was creamy, cool and flavorful. Altogether this was a very good meal. On the front door is a sign saying that they charge an extra 4% for credit card usage. Also, on my check were two prices, one for cash and the other for credit. While I detest restaurants that charge extra for credit card usage, I will give Gumbo Pot credit in that they clearly disclose that fee on the door and on the bill but I still hate it.

She wasn't only rude to me. But even the men behind in line. Telling us they are closing soon. Granted we didn't realize they close at 6pm. It was 5:30 & I told her it would be to go. She said she's not cooking anything & our only option was fried chicken. I went in for fried catfish. I said that's fine, then proceeded to yell the men behind me "only chicken nothing else"! On top of all this the chicken was very salty. I could get better chicken anywhere else Churches, KFC. Pick one. I will not come back, not even for the fried catfish. I almost forgot, it was so hot & humid. If visiting, be prepared to sweat!

The cashiers and the cook were preoccupied with whatever conversations they were having and then finally got around to take my order. I asked if the macaroni and cheese was good. Cashier said yes went in fact it is a generic slap together, thick cheese sauce, and overcooked noodles. Before leaving, I asked the cashier for extra tartar sauce. She informed me there was tartar sauce in both of the bags when I got back to my truck and pulled away of course there was no tartar sauce. At least I would give this dump two stars just because I was able to fuel.

They don't know how to serve a big crowd. They brought our plate out one at a time after we waited two hours, and of course the food was cold. I think it was about 20 of us about seven people didn't even get their food So if you from California, this is not a restaurant to go to especially if it's a lot of you maybe they used to serving 2 to 3 people at a time so if you're from California don't go like I said specially if it's a lot of you services bad and like I said they're rude
