In Short
Even though it's in the middle of the Fairfax Farmers Market, it's remarkably similar to a stroll through New Orleans' Vieux Carre. The French Quarter muffaletta sandwich is neater than its N.O. counterpart, but still served warm on crusty bread. The Creole mainstay, gumbo, comes in two versions, milder seafood (brimming with shrimp and crab) and the ya ya (spicier, kicked up with sausage and shrimp). Some diners simply stick to classic red beans and rice.

I was born in New Orleans and have been raised with lots of cajun cooking and this place is Authentic!! It really sticks to the traditional menu with items like gumbo, po boys, fried catfish, etc. Everything was delicious and not too pricey. I came here on for Fat Tuesday and they had a cute little celebration, but I was sad when they ran out of beignets! I can't wait to go back here and try more of the menu.

I've never tasted a sandwich as fresh as the one here at The GumboPot. Gotta try their oyster po'boy and you cant go wrong with their deal of 3 beignets (french doughnuts) --either original or with chocolate--with chickory coffee. All this and you'll feel as if you're in New Orleans at Cafe Du Monde!

The food here is very good and very reasonably priced with a very good variety. It is in the farmers market that has places like loteria, and other greats! The location is awesome, the food is very good, and the prices are right. If you havent been to the farmers market, you should, and if you been to the market but havent tried this cajun place, now is the time to pop in and give it a try. It is the second or third best place in all of LA county (that I have tried so far). The very best in my opinion is still the New Orleans in Hermosa Beach, but I doubt I will find a place better than that one.
