Our Story

Three generations of Louisiana cooking

PJ's Gumbo started with a cast-iron pot, a wooden spoon, and a family recipe passed down through three generations. We still make every pot the way our grandmother taught us, stirring the roux by hand until it's the color of dark chocolate.

Today we bring that same pot to Atlanta — a family-owned kitchen sourcing fresh Gulf seafood, local produce, and smoked sausage. No shortcuts, no powders, no compromises, just real Louisiana flavor in every bowl.

Reviews

What our customers are saying

Tastes exactly like my grandmother's gumbo back in New Orleans. The roux is dark and perfect. I order every single week.

Marcus T.

Midtown, Atlanta

The weekend blue crab gumbo is unreal. You can tell everything is fresh and made with love. Delivery was fast and hot.

Danielle R.

Decatur, GA

We catered our office lunch with PJ's and everyone is still talking about it. The spicy version with serrano is the move.

Chris & Bee

Inman Park, Atlanta

Real Louisiana flavor, not watered down. The cornbread muffins and ooey gooey butter cake are must-orders.
