“Sorely needed restaurant in Alameda. There’s good southern/soul food in Oakland but either parking/transit options are compromised or longish delivery times leave food soggy. This place has very fresh ingredients and great (read: actual) seasoning. Probably the best restaurant Mac & cheese outside of Homeroom. Hope they become a fixture in the Alameda restaurant scene.“

“I absolutely love their garlic noodles! While its definitely heavy with the butter, its comforting, flavorful and delicious. Love the texture of the noodles and how its packed with tons of garlic. I enjoy the salt and pepper wings and the jambalaya fried rice. The crab fries are so delicious and have a nice hint of spice. I've been coming here for years and having their food always leaves me in a happy and satisfied mood.“

“Went to dinner with a few of my lady friends after seeing a show in the city, this was the perfect ending to a phenomenal day. I had the crab cakes and they were delish, a couple of people in my group had the fried chicken/fried catfish combo and that looks delicious as well. I highly recommend Lizzy’s Cajun Cafe.“

“It’s a huge explosion of salty and umami!! If you like strong flavors, I highly recommend it. ㅜㅜ 2 pieces of corn, potato, and sausage per person, and garlic noodles (this is the amount of garlic for Koreans). Please make sure to order it. It's so drinkable..“

“I had the pleasure of sharing a meal with the family 12/6/2024. The food was quite delicious. The staff were Wonderful and very accommodating. My lil story is a love collard greens and am always “judgy” about collard greens. Part of my judgyness is stem or no stem. My personal opinion is, if they are cooked properly then Most definitely! And these were cooked to perfection! Taste/flavor, Awesome. The oyster mushroom sliders……You just have to go and taste for yourself. Outstanding! 100% they will be seeing me and mine again. Thanks cousin Curtis, your choice on point.
P.S. Banana Pudding waffle…BABEEEEEEEE….Just go!!!“

“Calabash is an absolute gem in Oakland, serving up bold and flavorful Afro-Caribbean and Jamaican dishes that leave a lasting impression. I had the 10-hour braised pulled beef sandwich, and it was nothing short of incredible—tender, rich, and melt-in-your-mouth like butter. Every bite was packed with deep, savory flavor.
I also tried the jerk chicken sandwich, which was equally delicious and came topped with perfectly fried plantains—adding the perfect touch of sweetness and crunch. Speaking of plantains, I ordered them as a side too, and they were crispy, golden, and addictive.
Calabash truly brings the taste of international comfort food to the Bay Area. If you’re craving a hearty, soulful meal with Caribbean flair, this spot is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be back to explore more of the menu!“

“Always wanted to try seafood boils but never could in my hometown. This was the first place I hit after my move and it 100% met my high expectations. A bit pricy but has cheaper options anyone who want to save $$. Went here also for my birthday and was told about a deal going on for crab legs. Totally made the occasion extra special and had food for days. Definitely still good reheated too. Highly recommend. Don’t let the empty tables fool you. It’s much better eaten at home anyways. Only complaint is no salad or soup options since my friend wanted clam chowder. But otherwise amazing“

“My friend was visiting from Washington. First time for both of us. The waitress was wonderful, explained everything. We had the 3 item bag. oh so good !!! mild sauce was just perfect. The shrimp and mussels were cooked perfectly. Will definitely be back with the family. 🦐💕“
“Got the 8 pieces of dark meat, and it was surprisingly really good with crispy batter and a little spicy kick. It's even good the day after, reheated in the microwave. Definitely coming back here when I have that fried chicken craving.“
