Sal's Gumbo Shack - Long Beach

OMG WOW TO DANG DELICIOUS TO BE A HIDDEN GEM! The food was beyond soulful! The taste of the fried catfish, fried pickles, and fried turkey chops were seasoned and not salty. We can tell by how it taste it was fried with clean oil and we got there at 5:32pm. Cornbread was soft sweet and buttery and the mac cheese was actually cheesy. The only basic thing was the banana pudding it was good just basic. This place is a must GO TO! Maria was sweet kind and helpful, excellent customer service!

3.5/5Shrimp po boy is good, fries were extremely soggy with oil.Jambalaya was pretty good, but the chicken and sausage were diced up too tiny. Barely any protein aside from a few small shrimp.The Greens are good.A little slow and a bit disorganized, but not terrible.

Expensive. No a/c. Only Shasta sodas. PoBoy was forgettable and I make better at home. Nice ladies but I came for the food.

This was the best shrimp po boy I 've ever had. I 'll definitely be coming back! Service was also great : '

Absolutely delicious!I have never had this style of food in my life and it was absolutely wonderful. The place was great I didn't think they expected us to dine in, but the staff was still welcoming. Most of the customers I noticed got to go plates. But this is a cute last min place to grab a hearty filling meal. A customer told me it is authentic as Louisiana cooking! I Ordered a small gumbo that was indeed filling on its own, fried pickles, okra, and was ready to get dessert if my pants didn't constrict me! The portions were plenty and worth the price. I hope to return soon and order the biggest size of gumbo they have ?
