(Just couldn't resist) Ordered the turkey and jalapeño Cheddar Sausage. The turkey (as usual) is juicy and tender with the right amount of smokiness flavor. You can't find anyplace that's better! The sausage, is Devine with the right amount of jalapeño heat. True to form the Mac n cheese and baked potato salad was delicious. I opted to try the baked beans and talk about tasty and "differently. I can't explain the flavor but it has this vanilla soda taste that is quite frankly out of this friggin world...and their green beans are seasoned to the Pit-master gods!

We just had BBQ yesterday from Terry Blacks. Today's experience was phenomenal. The folks were super nice. They have Texas Twinkie's...my absolute favorite. Theirs is 5 stars. Smoked perfectly. They weren't over powered with cheese. I ordered ham. It looked dry and I was worried when she was slicing it. It was anything but dry. Smoked perfectly and tasty. I loved it. Great flavor. The brisket was fatty, tender and pull apart deliciousness. My sis loved her pulled pork sandwich. Proudly exclaimed 5 stars! We tried their jalapeño Mac n cheese, green beans, coleslaw, potato salad, baked beans and macaroni salad. The Mac n cheese. Heavenly and the best I've had in Texas. We loved their potato salad. I'm telling you it was perfection. It's a mashed potato salad...and I'd argue like the Mac n cheese the best I've ever had. Coleslaw was creamy and not too sweet and we also really liked their macaroni salad. 2 things. Green beans weren't seasoned. Super bland. And I'm not a fan of how they prepackage their sides and you grab it out of the warmer or cooler. Their sides are some of the best in DFW. Let people see the product. Preparing them ahead gives a generic look and feel. I almost forgot the banana pudding. Soooo good. A must try! I liked that the lady stopped by and how everything was...it was warm and genuine. Bottom line 5 stars. We really really enjoyed it. We will back!

Other favorites from the menu includes prime brisket $19/half pound and pork belly burnt ends $19/half pound. I was not impressed with the $7 Texas Twinkie, a jumbo jalapeno stuffed with brisket and cream cheese, wrapped in bacon. On the contrary, one of our friends dreams about it. They have lots of sides to pick from and they give you a small container that you can fill up (not weighed). Desserts are free and self-serve for those dining in, options include peach cobbler, banana pudding and vanilla and chocolate soft serve. This place is popular, but the lines move fast and there is plenty of seating. .|\---/| | @_@ | ..\_^_/..2026

Rooster's is downtown on the Main Street; easy to find right across from the county courthouse. I visited on a Tuesday afternoon and it was a bit busy but was instantly greeted, seated myself at the bar, and served a (very) cold drink immediately. I had the 2-meat plate with fries. Hot fresh fries; good smoked sausage and sliced brisket. I did as I like to do: took my time eating, visiting with the staff and local folks. I enjoyed every minute and every bite. I parked my 18-wheeler a mile away and walked into town; hadn't walked three blocks back and a local fellow stopped and says, "Can I give you a ride? It's awful hot." My kinda place.

We were able to grab the jenga and play together while waiting for our meals which came out really fast especially with how busy they were.

I got the Frito pie b/c there are so many rave reviews on Yelp for it, but it really didn't knock my socks off. The brisket was my meat of choice and the smoke flavor just lingers thickly on my tongue. Like not only did they smoke it, but added some kind of smoked paprika or smoked ancho chili powder. The macaroni was mushy, cooked way too long. The beans were just filler and tasted like ranch style beans. I still enjoyed the complimentary toast. The frozen margarita was gross. Well tequila with well mix. My hub didn't enjoy his meal at all (chicken with the green beans side). It was so different from our first experience. Sad.

It's been a while since I've written a restaurant review, but after my first visit to Gogo Gumbo, I…read morefelt this one was worth writing. I met up with a friend, and we decided to give Gogo Gumbo a try. Excellent choice! The first word that came to mind during the meal was memories. Good food, good conversation, and a comfortable atmosphere have a way of creating them. We started with two Seafood Gumbo Cups. The gumbo had shrimp and crawfish, and the seasoning was just right and full of flavor without being overpowering. A great way to start the meal. I had a small cup of steam rice to add to the gumbo too. The atmosphere was another pleasant surprise. The vibe was relaxed, the staff was attentive, and, most importantly, we could actually have a conversation without fighting through a wall of unnecessary background noise. For our entrées, my friend ordered the Chicken Schizzle with grits, while I ordered the Etouffee. Yes, Etouffee (I believe that's French, and no, I don't speak French) I asked what it was. What I do speak is good food, and this was delicious. The Etouffee was rich, flavorful, and satisfying. I enjoyed every bite and definitely found myself savoring it rather than rushing through the meal. We had iced sweet tea and regular tea, although I'm sure they have some excellent drinks as well. Overall, this was my first visit to Gogo Gumbo, and it definitely won't be my last. Great food, good service, a relaxed atmosphere, and a place where you can actually enjoy the company you came with. I'm a fan, and I highly recommend Gogo Gumbo. Sometimes a good restaurant gives you more than a good meal; it gives you a memory.

For our entrées, we ordered the Crab Stuffed Shrimp, Fettuccine Alfredo, Lobster Ravioli & Beef Tenderloin, and the kids' Chicken Tenders with fries. The chicken tenders were a little under-seasoned, but every other dish was phenomenal. The seafood was fresh, the flavors were rich, and everything was cooked beautifully. What truly set this restaurant apart was the service. It was some of the very best we've experienced at any restaurant. Our server was attentive, friendly, knowledgeable, and made our entire meal even more enjoyable. We couldn't leave without dessert and are so glad we didn't! The strawberry cheesecake and the Jack Daniel's Chocolate Mousse were both delicious. The cheesecake crust, in particular, was absolutely incredible and one of the best we've ever had. If you're looking for exceptional food, outstanding service, and a memorable dining experience, GoGo Gumbo is a must-visit. We'll definitely be back!
