Cajun Restaurants near Oakland, CA

“This is my 2nd time here and this is the best crab place in the East Bay. Sonphi made me and my husband the best shots. I had a Bayou Boil which came in Watermelon but Sonphi let me substitute it for Strawberry! Soo good! The crab cakes are crispy and well seasoned. The crab sauce was so good and the crab legs were fresh, not frozen. I've been to every crab place in the bay and this is my go to spot!“

“Excellent food, even though we got takeout. Next time we'll be sure to dine in!“

“Third time coming here. My wife is from Brooklyn and when she craves West Indian Flavors we come here. Staff is friendly and attentive. Vibes are always nice.

But most importantly the food is always on point. I’ve had the Curry Goat, Oxtail, Jerk Wings, Beef Patty and the rum punch. There’s no such thing as a miss. If only they were in SF I’d come more often.“

“Lady E was in full effect last night! I love the ambiance here and the bathroom was clean and orderly. Bartenders made good drinks. The shoestring fries were a bit too crispy...but they were good. Well seasoned. The live music 🎶 here sets the mood. There is some dusting needed up in the rafters and ceiling area and maybe a deep cleaning in the near future. Overall clean and I would return, especially to hear Lady E and her live band sang the blues 💙 🎶“

“Delicious food. Great staff. Laid back yet vibrant Oakland atmosphere. I love this place!“

“Their chef Ramzy openly admits to tampering with the food of Jewish customers and ownership does nothing. Avoid this place and the Nazis who run it.“

“The owner was really nice“

“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.“

“If you truly from the south a lot of their foods are not impressive their gumbo a solid 5 Jambalaya solid 6.5 red beans and rice 8 earthing else they fry is cool solid 9's but that bread pudding with that bourbon sauce 20 so that makes up for everything oh they Mac n cheese is pretty fire Def a 9 but overall their pricing is perfect“

“Just went on Wednesday as I was passing through. I didn’t realize that they were open do to the farmers market being right there as well. Went inside and it was beautiful. The staff was friendly and attentive. I ordered the shrimp po boy and it was very good. I will definitely be back.“

“Been dining here over 6 years. Recently ordered from their catering menu for our daughter's graduation, everything came out perfect! Our guests enjoyed all the food (garlic noodles, limpia, korean chicken, string ean tofu, and salt n pepper tofu). They also have screens with popular games to watch, and the brewery is right next door, always a plus!“
