When I tell you the food was so good... believe it! You will not be disappointed. We had a variety of dishes so that we can sample. The catfish, collard greens, grits and shrimp was cooked just right. I am from New Orleans, so I know good food when I tastes it. The atmosphere was relaxing and we met the owners who were personable. Give yourself a treat and try "A Taste Of Rondo". That's what's up!

The catfish and greens were good. Red beans weren't even seasoned or cooked. Not sure what was going on with the macaroni-did not like it at all.

We had the Catfish Po'Boy, Southern Chicken Sandwich, greens, beans and rice, and mac and cheese. Everything tasted fantastic. Real glad this place is here, St. Paul needs it!

We had such a great experience at Taste of Rondo! We loved the atmosphere. The decor on the walls really showed the history of the neighborhood. The chairs were really comfortable, and there's a large outdoor patio as well.You HAVE to try their macaroni and cheese! It has a delicious blend of spices and is probably the best macaroni I've had. We also had the collard greens with pork, the smoked Gouda grits and the Central Avenue burger. Definitely add the bacon to your burger, it was super crispy and flavorful.For a cocktail, I had the Rondo Avenue Punch. It was delicious and very boozy, but didn't taste alcohol heavy.We went on a Wednesday, so it was karaoke night. The woman running karaoke played all of our favorite 90s and 2000s songs and had an amazing singing voice.The service was excellent. Our server was super friendly, our food came out fast, and the owner even stopped by our table to check on how we were doing.We will definitely go back to Taste of Rondo!

I mean, just look at the pics. I don't like grits. Or collard greens. But here? The most delicious, creamy grits. And the wings (not pictured, already eaten) with bourbon sauce are to die for. Definitely worth a visit. Or two. Or 50.

Some of the best wings in town. Awesome Philly. Super tender fried chicken. Creamy home style Mac and cheese. The style of the cooking hit the sweet spot… Not overly chefed up, but still inspired and unique. Staff was super friendly and the music they were playing was 10/10. Can’t wait to go back.

Chicken was so good and fresh. Sides were ok greens taste like canned greens instead of fresh but drinks were strong and portions were to for how much you pay. There isn't much parking as it is on the corner so plan ahead or car share. Service was very slow only 1 waitress. Yes I would go again.

Ordered mac and cheese and they essentially gave me boiled but dry seasoned noodles literally NO type of cheese unless that was the red seasoning thrown on top. Chicken was good a little salty but good. Greens were "just okay" nothing to shout out about them. They replaced the Mac that she said was "unsellable" (she was the same one who put it on my table, smh) with semi-rubbery cornbread (microwaved too long, I guess) I ate the chicken paid bill left the rest. This was my third and last try at their food, unfortunately. Gave a second star based on the chicken being good and that it's a nice atmosphere to eat in and black owned. Servers were nice as well, she knew my stuff wasn't done right and I beleive tried to make it right but I was done. Lol

100/10 I HIGHLY recommend dining here.I went on a Wednesday evening when they had karaoke. It was incredible. You could feel the love and the sense of community here. The owners are SO sweet and attentive. Staff is beyond friendly. And the wings and fries were to die for! Our group only ordered one cocktail and it was strong but delicious. Overall, I loved everything about this place and definitely recommend trying it out.This was my first time but definitely not the last time.
