    We felt the tiny gumbo roux had a burnt taste , the veggie gumbo as well as biscuits did not flavor and the beignets were too doughy. We enjoyed the fried seafood appetizer, Rosie martini and vermentino wine . Overall, food experience was poor . Overall, ambience and service was nice

    Truly fun and outstanding the food was amazing and our server Sam was fantastic. The Jazzy combo was a little loud for a small space but that is a minor detail. The food was plentiful, delicious and presented perfectly. The drink menu is varied and unique it reminded us of an upscale New Orleans restaurant.

    We had high hopes but unfortunately we did not enjoy the gumbo. My BF liked the fried seafood appetizer platter. Ambience was okay. We do not feel we will be visiting Filé Gumbo again

    A hidden gem in NYC. The best gumbo I found in the city. Patti with a P was outstanding. The music help create the cool vibe. But the food and I mean food and I mean food was incredible. The best I’ve had outside of Nola. The whole group felt the same way. definitely will be back. Don’t miss this spot.

    Service was very good. Food came quick and hot. Having eaten in New Orleans, I know it wouldn't be that good. That said, best bees knees I have had this year, and wonderful bread pudding. Fish and gumbo was good, but not great. Still, worth it for NYC, aka not New Orleans.
