Cajun Restaurants in Oakland, CA

“Calabash was AMAZING. I was with a large group and the owner and staff still made it feel like each person mattered. The food was great, had the oxtails, pasta and plantains. Some of the best oxtails I have had. It was great to meet the owner and to realize this place is not just a restaurant it is a hub for the betterment of the community. I will be back EVERY time I am in Oakland!“

“Thank You Pierre Pierre for making my birthday special. The food was so delicious. The steaks, Pasta, Mash Potatoes, Lobsters, Mac and cheese and chicken even the salad. I love the singing Happy Birthday. The napkins a host places it on your lap very elegant. My mother is picky she was very impressed by this restaurant and service. We will be back soon“

“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!!!“

“Great food and great service.“

“Great metal bar in Oakland with a massive courtyard, and makes you stop wondering where all the cute boys went! A nice reprieve from the steadily wealthier and wealthier Oakland scene, nobody is talking about their new sportscar here and lots of space to see great music most of it metal. 🎸 (though the last 2 metal guys I know who played here were pretty loaded now that I think of it one of them worked at nvidia and the other was a graduate degree engineer from my office ) there’s a baywheels bike share nearby in case you’re scared of leaving your bike locked up here. The courtyard has great seating for people watching, maybe if we do magic incantations all the cool art school girls who have great taste in music will return!“

“Yall ever have food so good that it made you mad?????? Brenda's !!! a catfish burrito and watermelon sweet tea!!! Praise the maker!!“

“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.“

“I always enjoy their food when I visit here!! Especially the signature tartar sauce, yummy!! If you like your fish fried hard like me request it that way when order is placed.
