Soul Food Restaurants near Carlsbad, CA

“Great hope in the wall BBQ. This place is the real deal and they even offer corn bread like some Mexican joints offer chips. It was a really nice touch. I have gotten with racks there and a few other things and I got say all there food is so good. They are in the process of trying to expand, I can't wait to visit then at a much larger location!“

“Stopped by on a Saturday afternoon to grab some take-out for dinner. This location is tucked away in an industrial park so on the weekend there is plenty of parking.

This is truly a no-frills location which seems to do nothing but takeout since there is just a couple seats inside to eat-in and no bathrooms from what I could see. It gets the job done since when I was in there for 10 minutes waiting on my food I saw multiple customers and delivery drivers arrive to get their food. Nobody sat down to eat. Perhaps during the weekdays people will stay longer to eat.

My order consisted of delta catfish and shrimp (both fried), baby-back ribs and fried okra. The catfish was perfect, cooked just enough for a nice crunch but very juicy and flavorful inside. Shrimp were large and full of flavor as well. Ribs were smokey and meaty. Okra hit the spot and was a crowd favorite at home. Overall I'd come back again very soon and will probably try the fried chicken along with the catfish again since it was so good.“

“We used We Cookn for our family Thanksgiving dinner. The food was absolutely phenomenal. Generous portions, home cooked with love and WAY better than anything I could ever serve my family. We have been eating this meal for days, and it just keeps getting better with every single plate. Our family will definitely be using We Cookn again for our Christmas dinner and for many more occasions to come. Thank you We Cookn!!“

“Absolutely outstanding food! The in-person ordering process was a little different, but it was worth the meal. Andre definitely cares about what he does and it shows through his customer service and the quality of his food.

The yam casserole was the highlight of my meal; don’t miss out on trying this spot.“

“Excellent cuisine with 'Soul' indeed. Very superb dining experience! Made my vacation!“
