Maurice Gorodesky was a chef who worked primarily in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Gorodesky was a "renowned" chef working at the Hotel Ritz in Paris. In 1950 the Comisar family "lured him" to Cincinnati to lead their new French fine-dining restaurant, The Maisonette. He left The Maisonette in 1956 to open Pigall's. Both restaurants were awarded five stars from Mobil for many years.

He was in 1966 credited by a group of other 5-star chefs as "single-handedly importing French cuisine to Ohio."
