Our Story

Ray & Mae’s Louisiana Creole & Soul Food Cuisine wasn’t born from a business plan — it was born from family, memory, and love. It began in the kitchen, where recipes were passed down through generations, cooked with patience, storytelling, and care. The food wasn’t created to impress customers — it was made to feed family, neighbors, and community. Ray and Mae symbolize the elders whose hands shaped the recipes, whose resilience carried traditions forward, and whose love showed up on every plate. Turning that legacy into a business was a way of preserving culture while sharing it with others.

Besides amazing food, the most important thing we want customers to experience at Ray & Mae’s is a sense of warmth, belonging, and care. From the moment someone visits or places an order, we want them to feel seen and welcomed — like family, not just a customer. Ray & Mae’s is about more than a meal; it’s about comfort, connection, and trust. Whether it’s a first-time guest or a returning supporter, every interaction is meant to feel genuine, respectful, and rooted in hospitality. We want customers to leave feeling nourished in more ways than one — satisfied, appreciated, and reminded of the joy that comes from sharing food made with love and tradition.
