What yvonne tims doesn't like about J Gumbos:
I flew in from Dallas. Brother bought this rice, smoked sausage and I think chicken w sliced peppers. The flavor was not good and the rice was hard and dry, meat was spongy like it was soaked. Not a gumbo to me. Not tasty at all. Service: Take out Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $10–20 Food: 1 Service: 4 View all feedback. What Chrissy likes about J Gumbos:
Got the voodoo and drunken chicken bowl. This was prob better then what I had when I was down in New Orleans. The voodoo was spicy but manageable though to me. The service was great. Friendly employees. Quiet atmosphere. If you haven’t been here, it’s a must! View all feedback.

J Gumbos offers a variety of flavorful dishes at a reasonable price.

Recommended dishes include the Drunken Chicken, Jambalaya, Voodoo Chicken, and Jean Lafitte Bowl. Whether you're a fan of traditional Cajun cuisine or looking to try something new, J Gumbos is worth a visit.
