Brenda's - Oakland

I love this store! Whenever I have a craving for some southern style comfort food, this is my go-to place! The shrimp and grits and the biscuits and gravy are amazing, and the fried chicken is always moist and delicious!

The red beans and rice with andouille sausage is amazing! The chicken breast was fresh, juicy, and tasty and for the first time in a while my biscuit was fresh and soft lol This place is really improved.

So this was not worth the mo at all. Fish was fried in old grease, Mac Cheese Side undercooked, Bowl Gumbo oily with no flavor and same for greens boiled in water w/no flavor.

Served fully burnt (inside and out) Side Fried Catfish, and oddly enough, an uncooked doughy Ube Beignet. Even the pulled pork sandwich was bad. We were starving and still couldn't get beyond a bite. Decided eating cereal at home was a better decision

Collard Greens with Bacon and Cup Gumbo were decent. The mac and Mac Cheese was absolutely terrible the noodles were soft and the cheese was congealed on top. The chicken was okay but the best part was the biscuit. Overall would not order again.
