Maxine's Gumbo House

Visited for the first time and found this restaurant by doing a google search while in the area. I started off with appetizers Cajun egg rolls and boudin balls. Having a creole background myself, I was very excited to try this food! The appetizers were tasty however with the boudin balls I would suggest to have a more seasoned rice before frying. (The food may be cooked from passed down recipes) so I totally understand maybe not wanting to change things up. The Cajun egg rolls were good but I just wasn’t getting that Cajun flavor I was hoping for. The chicken fried gator was ok again just missing the flavors I’m used to. The sweet tea is amazing! Red beans and rice had a bit of a sweet undertone to it but still good. I appreciate the good customer service! The zydeco playing in the restaurant definitely reminds me of my grandma!

The stuffed redfish and the Nola pasta was delicious. The bread pudding was a little too sweet for me. Overall, the service and experience was great. We’ll be going back. 😊

Excellent service! Great food! The gumbo could've been seasoned a little more but aside from that I really had a pleasant experience here and plan to come back more frequently!

Came in and was immediately greeted and seated. So off the bat service is excellent. The menu had quite the offering including gator, frog legs, and poutine.

I had the shrimp creole and the sauce was spicy but in a good way, fresh crunchy bell peppers, onions, and good shrimp.

The chicken fried chicken was also nice and crunchy with the chicken being well cooked.

The potato salad was also very fresh, just made? And the fries, one of the better basket of fries I've eaten (would recommend)!

Will absolutely come back again and be a bit more adventurous. Thank you all for the friendly service and excellent food!!
