Reviews for The Gumbo Shack in Fayetteville, NC
Fantastic lunch today. I had the seafood gumbo, friend 1 had the shrimp and grits and friend 2 had the Jambalaya. I snuck some... of each and it was delish! The owner was amazing as well. Please visit this lovely lady. It’s worth the trip! Read more
A true hidden gem of Fayetteville. Chef Audi is an amazing chef creating authentic New Orleans cuisine. The portions are... generous and the food delivers with every bite. This place is special. Pictured is the seafood gumbo and shrimp poboy. Theprice point can\'t be denied either. The Gumbo is seasoned extremely well and is what you want out of a meal. The shrimp poboyis made with fresh housemade bread and large shrimp (not the small shrimp) that are well seasoned and fried. The fries are alsoa joy to eat. Highly recommend! We will be back!

Upfront, I didn\'t eat at this restaurant. We went here by mistake while looking for another restaurant. They were just... getting things up and running. The staff was friendly and helpful. I like the choices on the menu. It smelled wonderful! Weplan to go here again in the future. They offer take out or dine in. Not sure about delivery. Read more
Truly excellent. The staff were so incredibly friendly, and the food is delicious. I had yet to find any decent gumbo in North... Carolina, until today. But these true professionals blew the concept of \"decent\" gumbo out of the water. I can\'t wait to goback. Read more
Delicious! I had the chicken and sausage gumbo with a spicy lemonade, Chefs kiss! I’m from up north so it’s rare to have any... southern food, but it’s spicy and filling but doesn’t leave you bloated. When it’s accompanied by real southernhospitality, like here, it tastes even better! All the staff are beyond nice, helped me and my family with options that ended upall so good! I just wish I at least took a picture before I ate it all! I’m not one for leaving a review but with this place IHAVE to! Everything is a must try! Read more
This restaurant has some of the most friendly and helpful service in Fayetteville. I visited for my first time today and had a... lot of questions about the menu, but the owner was extremely sweet and told me about all the options, as well as offered me afree sample of the crawfish pasta salad (which was also the first time I had crawfish.) The menu is limited, but don’t letthat fool you, you will leave full. The pasta salad was great, it had a little kick but the spice didn’t overpower the flavorof the meat. The poboy was so filling, they must use extra jumbo shrimp on their sandwich’s, these things are huge! Willdefinitely fill you up, and if it doesn’t, they also offer fries. The blueberry bread pudding had a luxurious lemon cream init as well and as soon as you open the top, a sweet and fruity scent fills your nose. Definitely will back for more! Read more

The food was great! Very authentic New Orleans and great portion sizes. The chef and founder of the restaurant came out to check... on us and told us the story of her restaurant. She is very sweet and clearly knows how to make some good food. I highlyrecommend this place. Read more
