Louisiana Creole Gumbo

The red beans & rice was delicious. The mac and cheese was okay. Needed more cheese for me. The seafood creole didn't do it for me. They were out of the gumbo, so I will be back to try that.

If I could give 0 I would. Was more than disappointed when I ordered the chicken gumbo but in actuality received chicken soup(not to mention it was very very bland, chicken was super hard chucks that literally made me say wtf in my head, also the cornbread was hard and tasteless and most likely from the day or days before). This was my first time trying them and when I walked in and saw the prices for what they wanted to call their small and large portions was outrageous but my stomach couldn’t turn it away because I just wanted some gumbo so bad. When I got home and opened that sucker up, my eyes were in straight disbelief that these people call this gumbo. I’m not making this review out of disrespect or anything of that nature. I was truly disappointed beyond words that I have this place my money for what I received and I don’t want you to make the same.

This was my first and last time visiting this restaurant. I've lived in the south for well over 16 years, I'm west Indian and I've also enjoyed authentic Louisiana cooking. I can throw down in the kitchen and I've enjoyed great southern food as well. Let's just say this however was not that. Talk about a disappointment. With a name like "Louisiana Creole Gumbo" me and my stomach were expecting delicious authentic food. I entered the restaurant and was about to order from the self service kiosk but after a few minutes I was greeted and a lady at the counter took my order. The customer service was fine I'd say, as the menu options were explained and the food came fast. However the lack of flavor was the issue. To begin the collard greens had absolutely no seasoning, not one smoked neck bone or meat morsel. Not one pepper flake or dust in sight. The macaroni and cheese was mushy, oily and lacked flavor. To add insult to injury was the gumbo supreme. It tasted like someone tried to doctor up some Campbell's tomato soup, by adding celery, rice etc. I said to myself Lord , not even authentic andoullie sausage? The sausage they used no lie was similar to Vienna sausages. Shrimp was overcooked and the whole combo just lacked that true flavor. While initially it looked promising, the corn bread was bland and solid as a rock smh. I literally broke it in half took a bite and had to just spit it out. This whole experience was especially disappointing as I make it a point to support black businesses however the quality just wasn't there. Whoever is in that kitchen needs to take some cooking lessons because they are putting the namesake of the restaurant to shame. I ended up just trashing the majority of the food, talk about a waste.

ordered the jambalaya with shrimp. Unfortunately the rice was mushier than oatmeal and the “sausage” was like meatloaf squares. Figured the mac n cheese could save me but it was weirdly seasoned and the cornbread was bland and dry. I ate the shrimp and threw out the rest.

I had the Small Supreme Gumbo. It's really good with a lot of flavor. The business is clean but I think I'm here on a hot day because they do not have AC 🥵. I would reccomend this restaurant to anyone. The staff were also nice and helpful.

Not all that gumbo had no flavor chicken not done corn rolls hard as a brick smh I won't be back

Worst excuse for gumbo I have ever had. Should not even be called gumbo. More like vegetable soup with unseasoned chicken. Haven’t been in years and finally returned for some flavorful gumbo. I was so disappointed with the flavorless chicken soup I received. I will never return I’m highly disappointed and offended for being served this “food”

Because LCG is a neighborhood staple I will not directly DRAG this place ( clears throat) however the quality of the products used and the attitude from the staff sorta reminds me of a LANDFILL so if you're in the mood for an overall trashy experience check this place out. To Ownership : You should be ashamed of serving the community of which you serve such bottom barrel quality food . I mean for goodness sake look at the posted pics ( catfish seafood gumbo), do better.
