Louisiana Gumbo Shack

OMG, this is exactly what I've been needing! We drove all the way from Seaside just to try Gumbo Shack, and we're SO glad we did. Seriously, it's the best soul food I've ever had, east coast or west coast! I got the oxtail meal, and I was so hyped! The oxtail just fell right off the bone, and the beans were amazing! And the greens? Best ever! They, along with the beans, were packed with meat. Plus, the portions are HUGE. We're so happy this is our new spot. You HAVE to try it, I promise you won't regret it!

Been looking for some authentic soul food from the South for a lot of years and have finally found it!!!! We walked up to the window and before we could take a look at the menu we were greeted by a very nice gentleman who gave us the run down on what he had with such pride in his food I knew then I was going to be in for a treat!!! My husband ordered the oxtail dinner and I got the fried chicken dinner plate. While we waited for our food we were offered some beans to try and oh my I was sold I could have eaten just those!! We got our food and took it to the back where there are 2 tables after opening up our boxes we looked at each other because the portions were HUGE!!! The food was the best soul food I've ever had I had a hard time choosing what I wanted to eat!! We will definitely be bac

Absolutely delicious and truly authentic Louisiana flavor! I’m from Louisiana, so I’m pretty picky about Cajun food, but Louisiana Gumbo Shack did not disappoint. I ordered the catfish, crawfish étouffée, and the boudin balls. The boudin balls were the star of the meal. Perfectly seasoned, crispy outside, tender inside, exactly how they should be. Do not believe any reviews about authenticity before you try it. Tastes like home to me! The catfish was cooked just right and the étouffée tasted authentic and rich. If you’re craving real Louisiana food made with love and flavor, this place is worth every penny. I’ll definitely be back!

This is my first time having oxtail (I think), and it fell off the bone. Flavor is good as I don’t have a reference. I was excited to see baked mac n cheese too! It’s so hard to find around here because I keep running into soupy versions. Loved the crispy parts. I’ve never had yams like this before. Cornbread, good, and pound cake? I need a whole loaf immediately. Soup was packed with that sausage. Some places are skimpy. Omg, too good. Worth the wait.

Best soul food I’ve ever had in the PNW. Oxtails were cooked to perfection & sides were just as good. Great portion sizes + Great customer service, I definitely will be back :)
