In Indianapolis, Chef Borel’s Kitchen brings a bold mix of Cajun and Creole flavors to the Midwest, infusing the local food scene with vibrant dishes and a rich cultural flair. This minority-owned gem is a must-try for anyone craving an authentic taste of the islands and the bayou.
Founded by Chef Teresa Borel, Borel’s Kitchen is an online-only ghost kitchen that fuses the taste of New Orleans, West Africa, the Caribbean, and Spanish and native American cuisines to form Louisiana Creole dishes.
Typical creole dishes offered range from jambalaya, seafood gumbo and oxtail stew to crawfish boil and oysters Rockefeller.
One review said, “Delicious food, lunch combo was way bigger than I expected, and each part was amazing. Plus, the service was super friendly!”

Catering services and consultations for those looking to spice up their next event are also available. Menu options range from seafood gumbo, crawfish etouffee, and red beans and rice to Hennessy pound cake and bread pudding with spiced rum sauce.
In addition to their diverse menu offerings, the kitchen also provides meals for the hungry through their Medicaid Meals program and Meals for All programs.
Chef Borel’s Kitchen, although online only, is a professional food preparation and cooking facility that is serviced through Menufy, DoorDash, GrubHub and Uber Eats. The restaurant is not a storefront, and they do not offer indoor dining.
