Soul Food Restaurants in San Francisco, CA

“Great food and music. Xxx.“

“Everything was so good! I came for SF restaurant week so I got to try the chicken and sausage gumbo, the shrimp po boy, the lemon pound cake, and the brown butter rice crispy treat. Everything was 10/10, no notes!!The sauce on the po’boy was amazing, I could drink that. And the gumbo was super flavorful (I would recommend adding crab!) you could really taste the brown butter in the rice crispy, and the pound cake was nice and soft and moist with a lovely lemon icing.Also very chill vibes! Please check this place out!“

“To celebrate our 27th anniversary, we went to @oldskoolcafe. The greeters, cooks and servers are all young people. Mama T opened this place to help at risk youth learn work and life skills (like how to get a license, do taxes, set a bank account). Partnering with experienced chefs, this restaurant has excellent food… and live jazz!!! We ordered the Taumoepeau Ota (think ceviche) and it was a great appetizer… light and the fish was super fresh. We had the short ribs which were super tender and had a rich gravy. We didn’t think we had room for dessert, but the lavender cheesecake and the Guittard chocolate brownie were fabulous! If you are in the city: GO! SUPPORT! ENJOY DELICIOUS FOOD!“

“Great food! Wonderful outside park let! Wonderful owners & servers! A real destination restaurant!“

“Grilled chicken sando on gluten-free bread with a side salad was tasty! really enjoyed a table outside in the sun. Service was fantastic, the guy working the register was funny and kind. Awesome neighborhood spot. This is an order at the window and get your own utensils kind of place, and it's great.“
