Soul Food Restaurants near Hollywood, CA

“Go-to and favorite sushi place in and around LA! The ?? citrus salmon roll is just perfect and I love the spicy tuna crispy rice too. Staff is always super nice and orders always come out consistent and on time. Will definitely visit more and can't wait to try everything else on their extensive menu!“

“Two Hommés is a culinary gem tuck away in Inglewood right next to the Ralphs on LaBrea and Centinela. I walked in during Sunday Brunch and I was welcomed by bigs smiles by the host. I learned that Two Hommés serves west African fusion and high quality food.I supported this Black-Owned business and ordered their house made crab cakes. They so fresh, delicious, and tasty. The owner Chef AB was so kind and lovely. He added grits, a biscuit, and a lemonade. 10/10 I recommend.“

“I was in LA a couple of weeks ago on business and found this spot the day before leaving and that's my biggest regret. Wish we'd found it the first day we we're there I'd have been eating there everyday. The food and atmosphere are excellent and a live DJ playing music we all grew up on (can you dig it ✊?). The purple (grape) kool-aid was a blast from the past fo so.“

“My family and I were in town and looking for a soul food place to try when we stumbled upon this restaurant by accident. We originally went into the location to order from a different cook (not realizing that it was a shared kitchen with several different restaurants inside) and that's when we were greeted by a woman offering samples of her food from this place and we loved the taste, so we bought our food from her. The food was really good and well seasoned. We were happy with our food choice! Give them a try!“

“Simply Wholesome is the absolute best. Healthy food. Healthy drinks. Healthy products. AND they are black owned. I love love love love this place. I have absolutely no complaints. On a scale of 1-10. Definitely 100. Yes one hundred. I visit everytime I'm in LA.“

“Heard about this place having the best meatball sandwich (on focaccia) in LA. But we opted for a couple to go dishes since we were in the neighborhood. We purchased the cannelloni with ricotta and spinach entree and the zucchini alla parmigiana. Easy to make hot at home and very delicious. The only disappointment we had was we thought the dishes were a bit on the small side. But I guess that's the price you pay for high quality food. Two entrees cost about $35. It might be nice if a bit of bread was thrown into the take out bag as a surprise. Parking is kind of sparse and the store has a few spaces for seating outside.“

“The most delicious gluten free southern food anywhere!!!“

“One word to describe this establishment AMAZING! I'm going to be a regular here for sure. The owner greeted me as soon as I walked in and asked if I had any questions about the menu. I already knew what I wanted to order so I went for it. I sat and talked to the owner while waiting for my food and he told me how he started his business and about his passion for cooking. Customer service was great! I have told everyone I know about this place. The food was a hit! Everything I ordered was good!“

“Clean, cute, good service, yummy. I got the Bachos which like a Jamaican nachos. I never had Jamaican food to know but I liked it. Salty for me but I don't add salt to anything and the Frito type chips already come that way I think. I got the lentil as my protein, which was like crumbled falafel. The cheese sauce was like a salad dressing texture and flavor. Reminded me of Cesar salad dressing. I think I found a raisin in there and I didn't mind. Would definitely come back. Thanks for feeding this vegan passing by the area.“

“This place has some very delicious ? and ?. Their customer service is great!!! You don't even have to wait that long for your order. The only thing about going here in this area?? is when you pull up in the parking lot there is always about 2-3 young men that are standing out in the parking lot. Which make it alittle uncomfortable to go there.Parking: Their is always like 2-3 young.men just standing around in the parking area. Which is very uncomfortable.“

“I work nearby and I’ve been craving something sweet so I picked up some banana pudding from here and it was SO GOOD! It was the perfect amount of sweetness, bananas were good and the wafers still had texture to them. If that was just the dessert, I can’t wait to come back for the food!“

“It was my husband's first Roscoe's experience. My second time eating at Roscoe's, first time at this location. Last time I ate there was pre-pandemic, but it was the SAME great service and good food that I remember! Not a lot of places we can say that about post pandemic. We will be back next time we are in the LA area!“

“Rinky dink place, but the food and atmosphere make up for it. The customers were friendly. The service was extraordinary. The owner cane out, the cook and the waitress all checked repeatedly. Great service. Because we represented a sorority, Many people spoke to us. One person actually paid for our meals! When we found out, we all cried. It was a wonderful spirit at Dulans, and we were thankful for everything that occurred. We'll be back the next time we go to L.A.“

“This review is long and overdue!I have to say one of the best riz collé and griot I had in a very long time. The food was really good and outstanding! It reminds me a lot of my home The food was very delicious mon chai! Best Haitian Creole food in LA! I'm the big drop!!“

“Absolutely divine food and stellar personnel, from the ladies at the front to the wait staff. Excellent experience!!“

“After ordering I came to check on the reviews and I must say that some people are very bored in life because all of the negative reviews didn’t match their character! Such a friendly young duo with the gift for amazing food, because this was the best soul food I’ve had ever since visiting LA. Just fire food and for those complaining about their attitude lol it’s very obviously stated how to order food and before walking in, maybe call and check if reading is to hard. Sincerely no disappointment over here!! Know you have yourselves and overseas customer and whenever I am in town my money surely goes to you !!!!“

“Food was excellent i recommended it to anyone“

“Grand Central Market is fun and Wexlers was good.“

“Awesome experience. Food is just like u would want it to be. Great hospitality. The owner and staff are wonderful. Please check it out.“

“So, I decided to give this spot another try since the food was good first time. This time I opted to call at 530pm.... Google says open until 9pm. She said "We are closed! "Wtf it's 530! She said ok, I will take your order ...I said well I am driving 40 min away...she said okay! How sweet.., I asked for 1 oxtail dinner and 1smothered steak. Asked for yams and greens and mac and cheese. I got 3 sides Mac and greens only. Still grateful to, because I told her I only had some of the cash and she said it's ok and kindly sent me home! Main issue I have is ....I didn't get ANY gravy at all I had a comfort food craving and that entails lots of smothered gravy. I had to come home and make some gravy. I believe they have new owners because the name changed to Sol of Los Angeles. There is a buffet in Gardena...it's written on the wall!****Owners ****please update the hours on line ,I drove really far and they were closing hours earlier. I included a screenshot of the information given. I just tried the smothered steak I used to love and this one today is dry, unflavored and hard with no gravy. Oxtails we're very small and minimal, no gravy and overpriced for the value. Both these items total close to $40....“

“Absolutely amazing service. Our waiter Jeremy knew right off the bat it was our first time and gave us recommendations. The Mac and cheese and waffle were standouts. We got tenders which we probably should've gotten thighs.The smashed potatoes with gravy were solid. We had a great rest of our day in LA thanks to recommendations Jeremy made.Thank you! Can't wait to be back“

“I finally got a chance to try this taco truck out. I have been seeing it all on instagram so I wanted to support this black owned business and also know if it lived up to the hype? Yes! First the service is great everyone was friendly and helpful. Also I didn't wait long. I want to say at the max I waited 6 or 7 minutes for my order to be ready. I ordered the LAtryguy special $27 + $1 for card. Which comes with 2 enchilada parm tacos (I got 1 steak and 1 chicken no olives or cilantro) and parm Doritos tacos (1 ground turkey and 1 chicken no onions or tomatoes) and a large kool-Aid fruit punch All of them were good but my favorite is the chicken and I did like the enchilada tacos the best. Very flavorful. My only con was the price. I felt like damn near $30 for 4 tacos is a bit much. To where I couldn't see my self coming here often to spend that on a regular. The food and service was really good and the kool-aid was the best I've ever had. But the prices will make me pause in returning.“
