Ruffin Rodrigue founded Ruffino's in 1998 with the understanding that he wanted to create a place where people could come to Celebrate Life. Today, his wife Alison continues his legacy and vision, with Megan Klock serving as Ruffino's CEO and Reid Henderson as Executive Chef. Ruffino’s features a wood-burning pizza stove, a temperature-controlled wine cellar with over 2,500 different varietals of
wine, a private party room, and an enclosed deck with amazing views of the Vermillion River. According to Megan Klock, Ruffino’s CEO, “We are so proud to have played a part in so many celebrations over the years and look forward to continuing Ruffin’s vision of being the place where Louisiana comes to Celebrate Life.”
