J. Gumbo's

muy bien, la comida y el personal!!

This was a very tasty lunch. The 3 of us ate for $23 with two having the jambalaya and one had the bumble bee stew (see picture). The entrees are rated by spiciness - the jambalaya level one and the bumble bee stew level three. Both were delicious. The bumble bee stew had a nice kick. We'd definitely eat here again when in the area. The parking nearby in the parking ramps are expensive- $12 for an hour, so if you can find on street or take public transit.

Love this restaurant. Menu is clearly marked for GF items. The staff could not have been nicer and really made us feel like appreciated customers. I'd recommend the white bean chili if you can handle spicy. My husband and son enjoyed the red beans and rice and jambalaya.

Very tasty fast food type of place!

Very good and helpful for gluten free folks!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Awesome! Many choices. It is like chipotle with your topping (stew, jambalaya, chicken...) on top of rice. Ask for samples! Staff was great.

Wow, we drove 15 minutes out of out way to pick up food from here and it was worth it. Amazingly delicious vegetarian and meat gumbos and stews. I would eat here every day if I could.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I highly recommend this place. I always get the voodoo chicken and bumble bee stew side by side in the same bowl with all the toppings. Its fantastic!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Excellent taste and very friendly. They were very helpful with GF and clearly identify which. Make sure you say it right away as they do have some items that are not GF.

7 of us went in for supper with 4 celiacs. We got samples to pick who was best for each of us. The food was wonderful! The staff was educated and very helpful.

Excellent food, very helpful with making GF choices. I'm not GF but wife and son are. Bumblebee Stew was GF and sinfully good. Wish we had one in NJ. Highly recommend.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great good! There's a gluten free menu. Fast service also

Fantastic food and workers. I asked Qs about gluten and cross contamination, and they were knowledgeable. Lots of options— they ended up giving me free samples of everything GF as I sat waiting for my group. I don’t live nearby but may make the drive just for the gumbo!

I have been coming to this Jay Gumbo's for years. I can't say enough positive about this place. The employees are trained in allergies and cross contamination.

But the real reason to come here, is for the sense of community. It's surprising to see in a chain restaurant like this, but this one really does have its own personality. The owner is deeply involved in local events and host all kinds of neat things especially with a focus on children. I once attended a free rock painting class here.
