    They have the best fish and chips I've ever had, by far. Not fishy, outside is perfectly crispy. Lovely people. Highly recommend!

    Friendly staff. Awesome Fish & Chips. Perfect. The cod was very thick. Regular fries which I love. Reasonably priced.

    Usually very good. Not this time. Ordered online…read more Two points for making some food - of which the fish and slaw alone were edible - on time. But oh my! What happened to the frying oil, and why is that employee at the driveup so surly? He said something we couldn't understand at the driveup microphone, then handed over the food without a single word, not even repeating the order or anything, scowling the whole time. Was he trying to wordlessly warn us not to eat what was in that bag? The hushpuppies were actually inedible: there had black and deep brown crumbs around the outside that were oil-leaking all over the plate, and were so hard they could break a tooth. I cut that stuff off to try the inside but that part was tastless and greasy too - except for one flavor that stood out: OLD OIL. The okra was ruined: soggy as if it had been boiled and then rolled in some sort of soggy batter that was oil-logged and smelly like...... Ollllllllld Oil. My husband got fries and didn't eat them after trying a couple. Soggy, pasty on the inside, no flavor, "not worth eating, yuck" was his comment as he tossed them in the trash with the "pasty tasteless mush" that was the mac and cheese. The fish wasn't "wow, I want that again" but it was edible. The outside batter had black and dark brown flecks from the old oil but the flavor wasn't horrible. It was VERY greasy - but I'd just returned from a long drive and we just wanted something quick. Sooooo, we got the oil off the rish in two different ways: I squeezed my fish in paper towel - had to repeat this just once - and my husband took the outside stuff entirely off of his fish, and we had the coleslaw with it. PS: The coleslaw was warm but pretty good.

The staff suggested we drive along Gratiot Avenue and choose a spot. Hook and Reel looked promising and really hit the spot. Gerald, gracious and professional, greeted us at the door and led us, as we requested, to seats at the bar. He quickly brought us tall glasses of ice water and a complimentary basket of prawn crackers, sprinkled with Cajun seasoning, crunchy and delicious. We split an order of fried shrimp that came with French fries and cocktail sauce. Eight large, steaming hot shrimp, with a welcome hint of iodine. The fries were also crispy and perfect. A gin and tonic and an IPA were icy cold and refreshing. Run, don't walk, (or drive) to Hook and Reel. You will be glad you did.

The owner completely disregarded her concern and walked off. She said that she'd been followed out of the restaurant parking lot by employees who followed her to her home in a threatening manner. Honestly, I'm appalled her statement wasn't taken seriously! We observed her trying to show proof of the incident while the owner just shook her head and shrugged the complaint off. We quickly settled our tab and left. Employee actions are a reflection of how a business is viewed. Due to this public display of callousness from this owner we will not return. I pray the young lady and her daughter are ok.

    Mr. Pauls Chophouse is what I consider the quintessential old style steak house. Very busy,…read moresomewhat noisy and an excellent menu. We were quickly seated in a comfortable booth and the fun began. There were so many things I wanted to order but was told "you have to order the prime rib". All four of us took that advice and that is what we ordered. 1 rare, 2 medium rare and 1 medium and that is how they were delivered. Perfect. Meals came with soup or salad. You could also order the table side prepared Caesar Salad which both of our friends did order. Just watching the preparation of the salads was amazing. Our friends have been here many times so they knew how good they were. My wife and I each enjoyed the French Onion soup which was very full flavored unlike watery versions many restaurants serve. All of our prime rib dinners were outstanding. Horseradish added to the enjoyment of this perfectly prepared dish. I had heard that this restaurant had recent new owners. I did not verify this however. Service was as good as the food. Not only was our server (Mary) excellent but anyone walking the floor was quick to take away used plates and refill drinks. I experienced one thing I've never encountered before. When bringing our checks, our server reminded us not once but twice the tip was not included. Strange and I might have reacted if everything wasn't so otherwise.perfect. Maybe she's not been tiped before-I don't know. She did the job and we paid her well for it. You always feel so good (and stuffed) after a wonderful meal

Inside is dark, moody, with lots of brick and dark woods as you would expect for the era in which the building was constructed. I sat at the bar since I dined alone, where there were plenty of open barstools. They start you off with complementary bread service which is a mix of dinner rolls as well as small and large crunchy bread sticks. I just stuck to the rolls which are fairly standard dinner rolls. They bring a bowl of butter in packets; however, they did not give me a plate to eat my bread....just a napkin layed across the bartop which was strange. I later saw other bartop patrons being served a small plate for their rolls, so apparently they just forgot mine. For drinks, they do have all the usual drinks, beer, wine and cocktails. I just stuck with an iced tea which was refilled several times during my visit. I didn't want to go crazy with ordering so I just stuck to the prime rib, a side of their special baked potato, a french onion soup and an iced tea. Their actual steaks start at around $45, as of August 2026. French onion soup - pretty standard. This is a small portion/cup. Some restaurants cup sizes are larger than others. I did like it though. Prime rib - this is a healthy 16oz slice. Cooked to perfection. They asked how I wanted it....they gave me a perfect slice. The one interesting thing is they give you 2 different horseradishes here, regular and whipped. I preferred the whipped. I ate most of it, leaving only a couple of ounces at the end. The entire time I felt like this was maybe closer to 22 or 24 ounces. Twice baked potato - really tasty as they typically are. I was only able to eat half of it though. Service was very attentive even though the bartender was training a new employee the entire time.

The…read moreinterior has been remodeled and looks great, love the dark layout and the huge dining room, however the food remains touch and go. Certain dishes are great, others not. Got a huge bread basket that looked empty, when peering in, two small pieces of stale french bread smothered in Saran wrap were visible. Shame all that wasted space. C'mon Gumbo. Don't skimp on the bread. Serve it fresh too! During past dining experiences, the fried shrimp and hushpuppies were much larger. During this visit they were midget sized, like they were "cooking to a price point". That said, Gumbo's always excelled at frying and they tasted great. The fried catfish was dredged in cornmeal and flour. It tasted as good as catfish can taste, considering slimy-stank taste is natural to a bottom feeder and next to impossible to cook out. If you like catfish, gather up a chair, you're in the right place. The gumbo was watery with small dices of sausage and more midget shrimp. The broth had little taste. Mediocre gumbo is a misdemeanor violation. I wrote Gumbo's a ticket on that one. The cajun pasta was very good. In the old days they used bowtie pasta in a thick creamy sauce smacked with Cajun decadence and big ole' shrimps. Today they used penne (not a big deal, but it cheapens the dish) in a disappointly watery sauce with a few midget shrimp. It still tasted good but it quite clear at this point Gumbo's was cooking to a price point. The STAR OF THE SHOW was the shrimp crawfish etouffee. Wow! Thick, creamy, rich gravy with a heavenly base of toasted roux having notes of roasted peanut. They got that one right, midget shrimps and all. I want another bowl NOW! DIATRIBE ALERT: Service wasn't terrible but far from exceptional. The new generation of wait staff expects big tips for mediocre service, like we should should be honored by their presence. I always tip large despite my general grumpiness. Problem is, tipping culture has gotten out of hand. It's become a bottomless pit of greed. Front and back staff with their hands out perpetually. Cash registers programmed to induce tip guilt. Dirty looks for not tipping a carry-out order. CARRY-OUT RULES: If I don't sit down to eat, I ain't tipping your ass. Go back to Nursing School or something like that. Why should the customer pick up the slack for an industry refusing to pay employees a decent wage? SUMMARY: Love the vibe. Like the food. Gumbo's was clearly cooking to a price point. Midget shrimp? Sacriledge. New Orleans ain't like that.

They both tasted like they were made in house and not from frozen. I would order these again any day. I also tried the shrimp po boy. The flavors were good, but the sandwich only had 6 shrimp.
