Brenda's Oakland offers exceptional comfort food, including the best fried chicken in the East Bay and delicious beignets. The shrimp and grits are also a highlight, with top-notch consistency, cheese, and shrimp. Sides, such as homemade strawberry preserves and biscuits, are solid. The service is excellent, timely, and friendly, with a professional and direct staff. The restaurant is a great spot to support a Black-owned business, with a commitment to integrity and cleanliness. The outdoor seating area could be improved, but the food is consistently "bomb" and worth a visit. Customers praise the quaint atmosphere, amazing and fresh-tasting food, and pleasant table service. The biscuits, beignets, and shrimp and grits are standout menu items, though some find the beignets too dense. The overall experience is highly recommended, with excellent value and service.
