2 seasoned African American women, mother and daughter with deep Geechie, Georgia/Florida Southern…read moreroots visit Gumbo Yaya. #1, there is no Gumbo. When i asked why the restaurant is called "Gumbo Yaya" with no Gumbo the chef/owner who was so very kind said gumbo means a lot of things in Louisiana... My mother and I have been making Gumbo all our lives. We smiled and shook our heads. Ok then. lol This is a play on Soul Food. Not really southern cooking but Soul Food for folks that don't regularly cook. White-Euro comfort food. The staff is lovely. Our server was highly entertaining and sweet. The restaurant was packed so it's got a core audience which is great. But it's not Soul Food.

During my trip to Paris, I knew I absolutely had to check out some black-owned restaurants, and…read moreGumbo Yaya was first on my list! When we arrived, it was a bit small on the inside, almost where you had to get up to let someone else from another table out, but I was just glad to be here. We found the service to be lackluster, and although we eventually recognized that gumbo yaya was just the name, it was disappointing not to be able to have any actual gumbo that night. The decor and theme of the restaurant were so cute, and I loved the hip-hop and musical touches around. Coming from the States, when we see fillet on the menu, we often associate it with fish, so since individuals in the group were pescatarian, we thought it would be great for us all, as it was inclusive. But we quickly realized that fillet there was just a chicken breast, so from that, the menu just proved to be very limiting with basically just chicken, waffles, and a few soul food sides. I did decide on the chicken, waffles, yams, and the sweet tea, and I thought everything was pretty good, but it wasn't what I hoped it would be. But regardless, I'm glad we got to try a black-owned restaurant in Paris.
