Chef Ron's Gumbo Stop - Metairie

Oh. My. Goodness? First time in IL and first time trying Gumbo Jambalaya! Amazingly good! Staff is more than friendly : recommended the dishes for me and even gave me a sample of the gumbo before ordering it : Definitely will be coming back to this destination ??!

Chef Ron is able to highlight the uniqueness of each of the Cajun and Creole dishes. I was afraid they would taste same-y . Everything was spectacular. When the crab cakes are the least popular item at the table (still very tasty), you know you have found some serious eats.

Definitely a spot for locals. My friends who live in New Orleans took us here, and it was fantastic: very kind staff, cute interior, great customer service, and DELICIOUS food. Everyone dining here was a local, present for a casual meal. At first, the food seemed a bit pricey for how casual the establishment was, but it was definitely worth it. Service: 10/10 Food: 10/10 Aesthetic: 8/10 (just because it was very casual and simple looking) Atmosphere: 10/10 (very kind staffand customers)

Chef Ron's was our first stop in NOLA and the amazing gumbo and jambalaya here made us even more excited about our trip! You can tell by the dollars decorating the wall that customers around the world truly love this local spot. Warm and welcoming staff make this restaurant one of the best.

Amazing eating, big, friendly service. we loved the mumbo gumbo so much, we ordered several (okay, more than several) container to bring back to nebraska home and share with friends and family. chef ron is amazing, they can say he loves what he does, it comes through in his eating. the newly expanded room is colorful and beautiful. view the covered terrace with paintings of a local artist.
