Top 5 Gumbo in New Orleans

  1. 1

    Li'l Dizzy's Cafe

    Treme

    Ian McNulty calls the Baquet-family Creole gumbo here "earthy-dark, restorative" — teeming with ham hunks, sweet shrimp, hot sausage and quartered crabs.

  2. 2

    Brigtsen's Restaurant

    Riverbend

    McNulty's pick for classic chicken-and-andouille gumbo — the roux is "burnished and brown as an aged whiskey barrel."

  3. 3

    Pêche Seafood Grill

    Warehouse District

    McNulty's seafood-gumbo pick: oysters and shrimp steeped in crab essence and bayou flavors.

  4. 4

    Neyow's Creole Café

    Mid-City

    Gambit's 2024 Best of New Orleans Best Gumbo winner — the Mid-City corner café that New Orleans readers voted #1 for gumbo.

  5. 5

    Dooky Chase Restaurant

    Treme

    McNulty highlights Dooky Chase's multi-protein Creole gumbo — a mix of different meats and seafood, also shipped nationally by the quart.
