Gossips Kitchen

Maravillosa comida con sabor a Nueva Orleans del chef y propietario que habla personalmente con los clientes.

Esta crítica desde hace tiempo. Vine aquí por primera vez en mayo de este año con mi esposo. Mi primer plato que pedí fue el estofado de mariscos y mi esposo pidió el bistec. La comida era muy buena y el servicio también es excelente. Las camareras son amables y atentas, ¡así que es una ventaja!
También ofrecen especialidades diarias que debo probar a veces.
Entonces, dado que mi clase de arte está a 3 puertas de este establecimiento, he estado viniendo aquí de vez en cuando para almorzar después de mi clase de arte. La gente es muy amable, por lo que es fácil entablar amistad con Esmit, el dueño del restaurante y un cliente leal, Luis y su adorable perro Cooper, que siempre están sentados en el bar. Saluda si te los encuentras.
¡Este lugar se ha convertido en un lugar de reunión tranquilo para mí, es fácil conocer gente nueva y chatear para convertirse en chismes amistosos!

Comida Americana.buen sazón, si buscas algo diferente creo que es una buena alternativa
Si recomendable

My husband and I dropped in on Friday March 31, our first time here for dinner. We were seated promptly and ordered cocktails, then decided to order the two dinner specials, duck confit with potatoes and asparagus, and swordfish with linguine and tomato cream sauce. Both were excellent - very fresh and nicely presented. Our server was attentive and courteous. We’re looking forward to visiting again soon to explore the regular menu.

Ayer, en nuestra primera noche en México, mi pareja, su familia, nuestros amigos y yo fuimos a cenar a Gossips Kitchen y disfrutamos sentarnos en la sección al aire libre viendo pasar el tráfico en la concurrida Carretera Chapala-Jocotepec, la calle principal de Ajijic. El chef era de África occidental y trabajaba para Paul Prudhomme en Nueva Orleans, especializándose en la cocina cajún de Luisiana. El especial del día se publicó en una pizarra justo afuera del restaurante. Todo el menú, con algunas opciones vegetarianas y veganas, se hizo al momento con productos realmente frescos. Para empezar, tenemos papas fritas Masala mezcladas con ketchup especiado de África Oriental, satays de pollo Masala a la parrilla con aderezo de tomate, pepino y raita, calamares fritos con mayonesa de sambal y sopa africana de nueces (maní molido vegetariano). Como plato principal, nos decidimos por Jammin Jambalaya que consiste en pollo, camarones y chorizo ​​cocidos a fuego lento en su tomate criollo casero, salmón a la parrilla teriyaki con semillas de sésamo, bok-choy y arroz basmati al vapor, curry de verduras del día, piccata de pollo (frito en sartén). Con hierbas italianas, ajo, vino, alcaparras y ensalada pequeña), Fish and Chips rebozados con cerveza de jengibre Fresh Catch con salsa remoulade y el Greatest Cajun Club con pollo ennegrecido, tocino, mayonesa, lechuga y tomate Excelente presentación en todos sus platos y La comida fue excelente, especialmente los satays y el servicio brindado por Miriam. No es el lugar más barato de la ciudad, pero los precios eran razonables. Si le apetece lo picante, este es un lugar para usted que podemos recomendarle.

La comida allí siempre es buena. Servicio siempre rápido. Gran lugar para ver deportes en el bar.

What an amazing experience. Where do I start. Ismat and his team of professional cooks created a fantastic experience for my family and I.

The food is great, pick any on the menu and you will be impressed. Very unique blend of spices and cooking style. Also pairs well with drinks. Highly recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed the gumbo, we've been to KPauls in New Orleans and with the exception of the type of sausage used, it was amazing. The Jammin Jambalaya and Shrimp Etouffe were not as spiced as in the Cajun City, but still very tasty. Will definately go back. Just so you know, it is a cash only restaurant, but prices are very good and it's worth a visit.

The chef is a well traveled and interesting guy, worth taking the time to talk to. The food is great and this is a good find when you're looking for a local place.

El chef es un tipo interesante y muy viajado, vale la pena tomarse el tiempo para hablar. La comida es excelente y este es un buen descubrimiento cuando buscas un lugar local.

Disfrutamos mucho el gumbo, hemos estado en KPauls en Nueva Orleans y, con la excepción del tipo de salchicha utilizada, fue increíble. Jammin Jambalaya y Shrimp Etouffe no estaban tan condimentados como en la ciudad cajún, pero aun así eran muy sabrosos. Definitivamente regresaré. Para que lo sepas, es un restaurante solo en efectivo, pero los precios son muy buenos y vale la pena una visita.

Wonderful restaurant. I came to the resto a few years ago when I visited Mexico. It had amazing food, I ate here nearly everyday of my 18 day visit and it had great food nearly everytime. Izmat was a great host and was very welcoming. I hope to return some day.

LOVE the Gumbo! Service is attentive with happy eyes (above the mask) and the house white wine is tasty!

So finally decided to try this place after walking by several times. I had the ribeye burger with Caesar salad and my hubby had red thai curry. Both dishes were excellent as was the service. I have tried many burgers since being in (July 2021) Ajijic and so far this was the best!

What a find! The specials the night we went were grilled or blackened rib-eye steak and Cioppino. The steak was cooked to order, tender and very flavorful. It was served with corn on the cob, chimichurri, and a side salad. The Cioppino (a San Francisco fish stew) had an aromatic and flavorful broth and included mussels, shrimp, fish, and calamari. The calamari was as tender as could be. All of the seafood was fresh and delicious. We will be back. I almost forgot, the warm bread pudding with ice cream was incredibly moist and the most satisfying end to a perfect meal.

Small, intimate bar/restaurant with excellent food

Gossips is one of those small, hole-in-the-wall places that delivers the perfect combination of atmosphere, service, and great food.

The welcome is warm and friendly, prices are fair, and the quality of what's on offer is outstanding.

Highly recommended. I'll be back a lot.

Es totalmente diferente a lo que ys estamos acostumbrados, sus platillos, sus sabores, su servicio, todo esta excelnte y 100% recomendado.

Thank you, Ismat. The jambalaya and gumbo were both lifesavers for Estelle & me! Your food is superb, your servers are friendly, efficient and fun to talk to and you are a prince of a gentleman. I cannot wait to have your incredible Thai ribs again. Oh my God!

I had high expectations when I looked at the menu but left disappointed. Peanut soup had an overwhelming sour yogurt taste to it. No other flavor. The blackened chicken was overcooked and tasteless. The fries were very tasty though. The pecan pie seemed very old. Had no moisture left to it. I don't like chocolate in my pecan pie but I realize some people do. I took the pecans off, added them to the ice cream, and all was well. To the chef's credit, the food was all perfectly arranged. It looked delicious, even though it wasn't.

Genuine Cajun. In Ajijic! And lots of other an excellent cuisine. Owner and his wife are watching a charming and welcoming. Service was perfect. Definitely in the list!
