Excellent menu choices and delicious food. Try and visit on a Thursday evening. We dined on the patio and were treated to a fun evening with Ray Lesonn playing jazz outside. The place was filled with a lot of regular customers and we felt very welcome. Chef John and Ray Lesonn pay special attention to their guests. I highly recommend... More

This is a very pleasant no-frills restaurant - very enjoyable food, plenty of choice and it certainly won't break the bank. Great for small groups (it is only a small place), couples & families.

The menu is varied with focus on fish and smoked meat/chicken. My husband LOVED the smoked pulled pork,ribs and chicken along with the grits and collard greens and he is very picky!! My blacken catfish and macaroni and cheese was very good. Loved the buns that they bring at the start of the meal. The service was excellent too. It's... More

We were drawn here by the good reviews here on Trip Advisor. Wow, were they right! We both had the Crepe St. Jacques. Every mouthful was a flavor sensation.

Located in a small, non-descript strip mall near a Walgreen's, the facade of Chef John's Place offers no hint of the culinary wonders that await inside. But do not be fooled. There is a master chef in the kitchen and the food and service are top notch. We were a party of four and we had made a reservation for... More
