The wait will soon be over.

Fiery, Michelin-starred celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay’s third Ramsay’s Kitchen restaurant is to open Tuesday in downtown Naperville, a city business advocacy group confirmed.

The Naperville location at 39 W. Jefferson St. joins Ramsay’s Kitchen locations in Boston and Las Vegas, both of which opened in 2022.

A television personality, British-born Ramsay is known for reality competition shows like “Next Level Chef,” “Hell’s Kitchen,” “MasterChef,” “Kitchen Nightmares” and his newest offering, “Gordon Ramsay’s Food Stars,” which aims to find the next food and beverage entrepreneur.

The menu at the Jefferson Avenue locale features items typically found at other Ramsay restaurants and a few items only available in Naperville.

Snacks and starters, which range between $8 to $23, include jumbo lump crab cake, sticky chicken wings, tuna tartare, maitake mushrooms, shrimp scampi and Parker rolls.

A seasonal soup for $10 will be available along with three types of salad: a wedge or Caesar for $14 and a harvest for $13. There’s an additional cost to add chicken, shrimp or salmon.

Handheld meals served with fries include a roast beef sandwich, a Vietnamese chicken bahn mi, BLT sandwich and the RK burger, double smashed patties that pays homage to Chicago with a spicy giardiniera, caramelized onions and American cheese on a toasted brioche bun.

Sandwiches run $18 to $22.

The Naperville location will feature signature main dishes similar to those offered in Las Vegas and Boston: pan-seared scallops, beef Wellington, fish and chips and crispy skin salmon.

There also will be a spring pea tagliatelle, chicken Milanese, 24-ounce grilled bone-in rib-eye and a 6-ounce grilled filet.

Prices range from $25 for the chicken Milanese or spring pea tagliatelle upward to $88 for the rib-eye.

Sides, at a price point of $9 to $10, include potato purée, roasted heirloom carrots, baked mac and cheese, truffle fries, crispy Brussels sprouts and roasted broccolini.

The restaurant also will offer daily specials for dinner.

Sunday is a prime rib with roasted vegetables and Yorkshire pudding, Monday is steak frites with chimichurri and hand-cut fries, Tuesday is the fish of the day with a lemon-fennel risotto, Wednesday is steak Diane with sauteed mushrooms and a sherry mustard sauce, Thursday is lobster pot pie, Friday is shrimp and grits, and Saturday is shepherd’s pie. Prices start at $30.

Desserts, from $10 to $15, include a chocolate tart, cheesecake, sticky toffee pudding and strawberry Eton mess, a traditional English dish consisting of meringue, strawberry jam, basil and sweetened whipped cream.

The 39 W. Jefferson Ave. location for more than a century was anchored by Oswald’s Pharmacy, which moved to 88 W. Gartner Road in 2004.

Three years later, the Atlanta-based Ted’s Montana Grill founded by media mogul Ted Turner at that spot. It was a downtown staple until the COVID-19 pandemic, when it closed and remained shuttered until now.

Ramsay operates 21 restaurants in the United States, including five Hell’s Kitchen establishments named after the reality show he created.

The closest Ramsay iteration is a Gordon Ramsay Burger restaurant in Chicago at 2 E. Ontario St.
