The 11 Best Places for Gumbo in Seattle

Brennan Rauert: Great seafood gumbo!

Martina Rauert: The seafood is so good! I got the BBQ shrimp with corn grits and I would get it again right now! My bf got the gumbo and it was the best gumbo ever, so full of seafood! A must if you love seafood

Wilhelm Fitzpatrick: Crispy fried chicken gumbo is the way, the truth, and the life.

Matthew: Try the Southern Style Gumbo

John L.: Love the gumbo!

Alex S: Excellent gumbo!

Jeshua Madden: Personally I thought the gumbo sucked. However, I do concur with other tippers....the rueban is killer and adding salmon to the goat cheese salad is a very good idea.

Rob W: The Gumbo alone will have me coming back.

Ozzy Girl: The Gumbo tastes like my Momo's Gumbo made in Louisiana!

Elizabeth Cito: Festival. Gumbo better than mama made and that's sayin sumthin!

Paul Rodriguez: Recommend the fried chicken, best I've had. Fried catfish is excellent, as are the red beans and rice. Go and enjoy.

The Seattle Times: A congenial place where regulars are treated like family. Lump-crabmeat lovers should opt for crab salad. Chicken and sausage gumbo derives most of its flavor from spicy andouille and tomatoes. Read more.
