Nellas Place Soul Food • $$
571 Bancroft Ave, San Leandro

“The food is good and the service is great. Ms. Nella is always welcoming, kind and accomadating whenever I pick up my food; that never wavers. My only complaint is, this establishment has inconsistent hours. I always call in my order but there has been two incidents where I’ve called in, didn’t get an answer and just drove over as I figured they were busy. Lo and behold, they were closed despite the hours of operation posted on line. I wasted my time twice going down there. Now I know that if no one picks up the phone, they’re closed.“

“Shawny C was an absolute beacon of light from the moment we met her. Her warm personality, genuine kindness, and welcoming spirit made us feel right at home. She didn't just serve drinks—she created an experience that made us feel valued, appreciated, and cared for.

It's rare to meet someone who naturally makes people feel welcomed and loved, but Shawny does exactly that. Her positive energy was contagious, and her authenticity stood out in the best possible way. By the end of our visit, we felt like we'd come back just to see her again.

Rob Ben's Restaurant & Lounge is fortunate to have someone like Shawny representing their establishment. She turned a good visit into a memorable one, and we can't wait to return.“

“The fried chicken is crispy outside and juicy tender inside. The various chicken combos are good deals. There is a wait for orders because the food is not precooked and sitting under heat lamps. Parking can be difficult and the small parking lot fills up quickly. I will definitely be returning!“

“Outstanding in every possible way. Best fried fish I’ve ever eaten, and everything on the tasting menu was excellent: the corn bread, salad, boiled peanuts, shishito peppers, hushpuppies and beans and rice. So much care has been put into the details, from the food to the atmosphere to the lighting.“
