Cajun Restaurants near Oak Park, IL

“Great vibe and good food lover of the crab legs“

“I am late writing my review but I had to write it !! I visited provare chicago On july 8th !! From start to finish this restaurant gets 5 starts . The decor was nice and set a perfect atmosphere for a great night . We were greeted immediately upon arrival and seated within 5 minutes of being there . Once seated the wait staff began their introduction's on drinks and popular menu item's. After my party ordered drinks and appetizers a gentleman came over (not sure if he was the manager) and introduce himself and made sure we were having a great experience. Appetizers were amazing!! We couldn't wait for dinner!! Our entrées we just as good if not better ! Everything was cooked and seasoned to perfection! When we didn't think the night could get even better the entire wait staff and the gentleman that came over before stopped and recognized my friend for her birthday and brought over a birthday surprise!! I live 307 miles and this place was definitely worth the drive !!!“

“First time eating here and my goodness, it was delicious! The owner Eric was so kind and so was Adil. Customer service was 10/10! We drove from Schaumburg and it was worth the drive. We ordered 3 boils and everything was FRESH! Quality is very important to me, esp when it comes to seafood, so I was very pleased. Everything was flavorful and came out nice and hot. I highly recommend this place and really hope this establishment flourishes. 💜“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re looking for a little slice of New Orleans, Junebug Cafe is the place to be! From the moment you walk in, the aroma of rich, smooth coffee fills the air, and the first bite of their Louisiana hand pies or fluffy, powdered-sugar-dusted beignets will transport you straight to the French Quarter. The flavors are authentic, the atmosphere is warm, and every sip and bite feels like a celebration. Don’t miss out on this hidden gem—your taste buds will thank you! ☕✨ Start your morning with a little taste of New Orleans right here at Junebug Cafe! #JunebugCafe #TasteOfNOLA #BeignetsAndCoffee #CafeVibes“

“Found this delectable gem on the west side of Chicago and let me tell you, I was soooo glad we found it! Kitchen n Kocktails canceled our reservation because someone famous came to their establishment and turned us away at the door!!!!! We were greeted at Soul’e with a pleasant smile, clean building, nice music and was seated right away (even though he suggested making a reservation). Our waitress Mya was so sweet and attentive. She made recommendations for almost everything on the menu lol. We ordered the catfish, dirty rice, sweet potatoes, fried chicken, greens and cream corn (I know a lot but wanted to sample), let me tell you everything was FIYA! Even with the crowd they had, we didn’t wait long for our food. We got a chance to talk to the owner to let her know about our experience and she was the absolute sweetest. If you’re ever in Chi check them out, you will not be disappointed!“

“We had the best time here! Very friendly staff! Great food as well ! Our waitress was amazing!!! thank you for ending are stay here in chicago on a great note!“

“I just walked out of the door and am so glad that God sent us there. We tried 3 places prior to walking in CheSa’s doors which was a definite blessing. We had the catfish skillet, bourbon peach cobbler franchise toast, chicken sausage and scrabbles eggs w/cheese washed down with a breakfast martini. Absolutely delicious and with the owner/chef being very warm w/great hospitality. We’re definitely going back.“

“Such great service (Alex) and food! Fantastic time and we were a large group.“

“Cozy cafe with an admirable dedication to reducing waste and in particular plastic coffee cup usage. I really appreciated the stainless steel, freezing cold cup for my iced coffee. Sandwich was very bland and overall disappointing for the price paid, which was excessive. Coffee was decent, service was quick and efficient, and it was a fun place to hangout for 30 minutes.“

“Had the pleasure of trying out TDS at the Kane County Fair before the rodeo, OH MY LORD was it amazing! New Orleans is my favorite city and has many of my favorite foods and man did these guys did not disappoint! If you are considering them for any catering or event do not hesitate to book them. They were really friendly and you can tell that they love what they do. I cannot say enough good things about them, KEEP IT UP GUYS!“

“Was driving past and saw a Jamaican flag in the window so I turned around. Thank God I did the food is so good ya'll I had the lamb, spinach and mashed potatoes. I'm still outside the restaurant in my car posting this cause the food is gone already!! An amazing Shout out to the owner miss tanya and her staff a wealth of knowledge a true blessing. Also thank you to Mario from Goebbarts farms for serenading me with live music while I waited!!“

“Update: It's s probably been 2 or so years since I've been in. Was in the neighborhood and had to stop in for nostalgia. Service is just as good as I remember and the food is still top notch! Shrimp Po boy and the wings tasted like I remember. Love the addition of the On Trend: Fire : It Slaps cocktail menu.

Excellent craft beer selection beyond just IPA's. Food has been consistently solid for the 7+ years I've been coming here.“

“YOOOO the gilty pig is insane! They have "popped up" at my farm a few times now, and each time I am amazed by the flavors and complexity they bring to "simple dishes". They take a brat and turn it into a full asian inspired meal. Now if the food wasnt enough, this truck could not be run by two better people. They deserve all of the awesome things that are coming their way. Keep killin it, guys!“

“Very nice place to take the family or date. Food and drinks was very good! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Had my Daughter's Wedding Shower there, everything was fantastic from the food, the staff and Richard our server was "the best". The room was perfect and cozy and out of the way. Highly recommend for a party or just stop into eat!“

“So satisfied!!! From Ah-mazing people who work here and a yummy meal (Jambalaya Soup, Catfish Po Boy, Surf and Turf), located in the Southport Corridor (not too far from home, and very close to Wrigley Field). Highly recommend for fun yummy vibes in an awesome location.

“Fatso's Last Stand, always rated among the top 10 hot dogs stands in Chicago by various food critics, has its flagship restaurant at 2258 West Chicago Avenue in Ukrainian Village and a newer location, which is much more convenient to me, at 1982 North Clybourn, at Armitage, in Clybourn Commons, in the Lincoln Park neighborhood. Open from 11 to 8 daily for pickup or delivery, it is a neighborhood snack bar that advertises Chicago's best char-grilled hot dogs and other delicious comfort food items that keeps customers coming back for more and more, like chili dogs, char grilled or griddled smashed Fatso burgers, Cleo's home-made chili with onions, sour cream and cheddar cheese, Maxwell Street style Polish sausage with mustard and grilled onions, Fatso's jumbo fried shrimp, mac and cheese and milk shakes with such flavors as chocolate, banana, Oreo, strawberry, vanilla, mint chip and Reese's peanut butter. But have you tried theSuper Ooey Gooey, Fatso's latest two-fisted creation? It is two smash beef patties stuffed with applewood smoked bacon, Merkt's cheddar cheese and giardiniera topped with Fatso sauce, tomato, lettuce and onion. Of course, you can't pass up Fatso's signature item, the char dog, served Chicago-style with mustard, relish, onion, tomato, sport peppers and celery salt. And the char-grilled Fatso burger served on a toasted bun with Fatso sauce, lettuce, tomato, onion and applewood smoked bacon. With home-made fresh cut fries. Wash it all down with a chocolate milk shake. Or two of them.“

“The first time I tried CHAR CRUST I was given a sample packet of the Hickory flavor and tried it on a ribeye steak, hands down best steak I've ever eaten, the Char Crust complimented the steak and not over powered it. The next day I placed an order on Amazon, since then I have purchased the Chipotle flavor and seasoned a freshly graded hashbrown Omelette. I can't wait to try the rest of the seasonings from Char Crust. If you haven't tried it yet please order some today It's Goat Lipping. Thanks,Big Al“

“They have the best shrimp and grits! When they are at the CCDOC I know it's going to be a good day!“

“Madison Crab is amazing. I appreciate the staffs and managers kindness to me even though I have autism and their food is amazing and really good. Owner Stanley is very nice. The restaurant is in good condition. Amazing crab boil. Must come back. 10/10.“

“Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY. I was told there isn't an Haitian restaurant in Chicago. Well that's a lie. I found this one. Food was great. Owners were very warm welcoming.“

“Surfs Up Maywood made my day! 😊 The food was made fresh to order. I had their shrimp 🍤 and Hennessy Chicken Wings. The customer service was really good. The Hennessy sauce was absolutely amazing I'm chicken drunk lol 😂 Seriously tho such a great a pleasant and great experience. Love the heathy alternative options too. I will definitely be coming back.“
