Authentic Creole eatery serving customizable gumbo, shrimp & grits
"This food cart walks the line between Cajun and soul food spot, pouring cups of sweet tea to pair with customizable gumbo bowls, red beans and rice, hot links, and shrimp sandwiches. Shrimp and grits here are particularly special, using a rich white wine and heavy cream gravy with the added oomph of andouille sausage. For dessert, choose between banana pudding and sweet potato pie." - Ron Scott
"Bored of overbaked chicken and Caesar salad wedding receptions? Few choices will be as memorable to guests as Mumbo Gumbo’s Louisiana-inspired offerings: thick gumbos, red beans and rice, and spicy andouille sausage. Add buckets of sweet tea and banana pudding for dessert and out-of-town guests might wonder if they accidentally hopped on a flight to Baton Rouge instead. Those interested can call the cart, or book online." - Rebecca Roland

"This North Williams food cart specializes in customizable gumbo bowls: Visitors start with a choice of vegan or classic gumbo base, and then choose from a variety of protein options, including hot links, crab, and vegan andouille. However, gumbo isn’t the only item available here: Red beans and rice, shrimp and grits, and grilled boudin all make appearances, plus desserts like banana pudding and sweet potato pie." - Eater Staff
"Heading east of Foster-Powell, the stellar New Orleans–style local chain Mumbo Gumbo has landed at Southeast 82nd’s Collective Oregon Eateries (CORE) pod; their Louisiana cuisine is standout and The Trinity is the go-to order." - Nathan Williams
