The delivery fee had me hesitant ($10), but I figured I'd treat myself. The gumbo was AMAZING, had a little kick to it but it wasn't too spicy. Very rich in flavor. I'd definitely recommend it, but they really should lower the delivery rate. Food arrived on time by a nice delivery driver. Overall, great experience.

The food was absolutely delicious. They left part of my order at the restaurant but the delivery driver was so nice he apologized several times for the mistake and kindly went back to get rest of our food. It was very feeling and very flavorful. Overall very impressed and pleased.

Amazing gumbo. The first words out of my wife's mouth were "this roux is sooooo good." My folks moved to Louisiana 15 years ago, and while I've had better gumbo there, Anita's is up there. We had a hiccup with delivery, but I still give them five stars. The food was that good.

Everything was good but as we ate we thought why don't they sell Biscuits to go along with this good gumbo, that was all that was missing from the meal. I guess I will make my own next time we order??

The delivery guy was friendly; the gumbo was delicious; succulent jumbo shrimp; quick delivery. One of the better restaurants located on the south side of Chicago!

Nitas Gumbo recipe originated in the New Orleans kitchen of the late Irving Sheldon Jones. He moved to Chicago in 1921 but kept his Louisiana roots alive by making time for the authentic French-Creole styled Gumbo he loved to make. Irving passed along his recipe to his daughter Anita, and taught her how to make the most important ingredient in any Gumbo. The roux! For Hours Anita Would watch her father cook with pride whenever he prepared this Louisiana family recipe. It was here she learned the art of cooking, embraced the joy of creating and, under his watchful eye, mastered the techniques behind the taste of his intoxicating Gumbo.
