Went here for lunch and it was delish! The shrimp baked potato was really good and super filling and I got a cup of gumbo, would have liked a bit more rice but other than that it was yummy! Definitely will be trying other things on the menu!

Gumbo Ya Ya makes the best gumbo and shrimp and grits we have ever tasted, and that includes what we have eaten in Louisiana. Sorry Louisiana! The roux that made up the gumbo was so intensely flavored it felt like we were eating a mole at times. The grits were super creamy and cheesy with a smooth texture and the shrimp, cooked to order, were delicate and juicy. We will be dreaming of this place for a long time to come. Highly recommend!!!
