Yes!!! This is my new favorite Soul Food SPOT! The atmosphere takes me WAY back! They play R&B from the 80s and 90s, which I love! The bar is proper! I had the JJ Smash and it was slammin'! Equally as delicious was the catfish, greens, and fries. The cornbread is in a class all by itself! You really must check this place out. You won't be disappointed. Honestly, if my mama was here, I would slap her!! (For those of you not familiar, that is a Black colloquialism, which means the food is amazing ).I am very glad I came here. It's like going back in time when Big Mama cooked Sunday dinner.Special shout out to Jazzy and Eva. Thanks for the concierge attention.

The service was good, everyone was friendly. The ambiance was nice, the music was good. It's cute inside. I didn't care for the style of seating but it was fine. The food was good, the Mac & cheese did lack a bit of flavor but other than that I would definitely go again

Food rating only*** (I had someone stop by, place and drop off my order so I can't truly rate the ambiance and customer service.)We ordered fried fish with macaroni & cheese, greens, apple caramel cheesecake, sweet potato cheesecake, garlic Parmesan wings, and fries. Cheesecakes were 5/5, especially the apple caramel! Fried fish: it was fried hard and really dry like it had been sitting out.Wings: we're not garlic Parmesan but ended up being fried basic wings with too much salt.Fries: DecentGreens: BlandMac and cheese: Bland Sacramento could really use another soul food restaurant staple so I'm hoping that I caught themon an off night. The food was aiiight. I may give them another try by dining inside to see how freshly prepared meals taste. If this establishment doesn't fair well over time, they definitely should consider selling cheesecake only.

Soul food in Sac hits again! Creole Soul is in what looks like was once a bar right on an unassuming corner in Sacramento. Went here with two friends for a quick meal before a comedy show and when I tell you it was beyond expectations?! The inside has a bar and small tables scattered throughout the space. It created a unique combination of a night time bar vibe but also like a cafe at the same time? I thought it was nice that even though it looks unassuming on the outside, there is still attention to detail on the layout and even the plating of the food with the cute newspaper cutting. We got fried red snapper and lamb chops with red beans and rice, fried zucchini, greens, and mac and cheese. Everything was seasoned perfectly (even the beans and rice was so good!) and tasted just like home. I also got what I think was a cornbread muffin on the side with cinnamon butter that was like the best surprise at the end of the meal. The portions were generous so I ended up taking almost half my meal home because it was too good to go to waste. Beyond that, I will say parking could be a bit of a struggle if it's busy. When I arrived there was no parking in the shared lot behind it, so I ended up street parking around the corner. Just be aware of that if weather isn't great or it's late.

Man oh man first off atmosphere is poppin and music was great. Okay but let me get into this food yall!! When I tell you this was hands down the best soul food I've had in Sacramento since moving here 3 years ago!! Woooweee!! Okay let's get into it!I got the fried catfish with 2 sides. Catfish - juicy flavorful & just melts in your mouth!! I love their catfish because the breading doesn't fall off & the fish falls apart as you're trying to grab a piece very moist & well seasoned! Flavor on point with this!! Overall 10/10 1st side Mac n Cheese - okay now hats off for this one. As a very picky Mac n cheese person this one hit the mark for me!! I've been longing to find a good Mac n cheese real soul type & this one does just that! Put it this way I'm eating this food and making the review because I just couldn't wait!! Overall 10/10 2nd side Collard Greens - off bat I love that they use turkey, the greens for me packed a lot of flavor & I will be going back for more! Overall 10/10 Okay now this cornbread muffin that comes with whatever sweet cinnamon butter on top was so damn good I ate it before starting the main course. So that explains that rating. Overall 1000/10With Creole Soul I feel like I'm back visiting the south! Their flavors are unmatched out here in Sac. I will definitely be going back. Shoutout to everyone there!!

A random "hey, let's check that place out, led me to this restaurant. It's intimate and family oriented. The staff is extremely welcoming and friendly and the food is absolutely delicious.The co-owner came out to greet us and see how we were enjoying the food. I had a small salad and fried catfish with Mac & cheese. Everything was well seasoned. I got busy with life so I haven't been back yet but I definitely plan on going back and checking out the rest of the menu items. Definitely recommend!

I came across Creole Soul by chance through social media, and decided we had to stop in here with the family.We dined at Creole Soul on a Saturday night, and sat in the back. Because we were a table of six and all of the seating was for 4 or 2, we asked if we could combine a 4+2, which occured without issue.After being seated for a few minutes and looking over the menu, we went up to the front and ordered our food and drinks. and while that was goinf on I inquired ababout drinks at the bar; specifically the frozen drinks at first. The bartender gave me the name of all 3 and a sample of each. Two of them were really good, but I opted for to order two Moscow Mules and ring them to our table.Drinks:Moscow Mule (x2)Main courses:Whole fried wings, fried asparagus & friesParty wings & friesFried catfish, collard greens, mac & cheese, and Cornbread (x2)Fried red Snapper, collard greens, red beans & rice, and Cornbread (x2)WOW! The food was so fire. The fried catfish was hot and flaky, and probably the best I've had here in Sacramento. I also loved the fact that the collard greens were cooked with pork and not turkey. I don't knock the other type, but I was raised on the pork version so that's my favorite version. The mac & cheese was really good too, and the corn bread was nice and moist. And paired with a delicious cinnamon bread.Overall: Great staff, good drinks, and delicious food; especially the fried catfish.Will definitely come back here again!

The place is pretty spacious and there's many tables! There's also a bar if you're looking to just sit and drink.Honey garlic wings w/fries(5/5): The fries were nicely seasoned and pretty crispy. Each bite I took was airy as well and I didn't have a single soggy fry. The wings were crispy even though it was covered in sauce and juicy too! The sauce itself was tangy and very flavorful!Service(5/5): Our server was very friendly and helpful when it came to the choices on the menu.Overall, would come here again to try their other items!

Food was good! I had fried catfish Mac and cheese and red beans and rice everything. I had was a ten aside from the Mac which I'd give a 7.5 may needed a little more seasoning other than that I loved it. I love to see small business be so busy and vibrant it's a cool mood in there. Good music good wait staff. For it to have been so busy I got my food pretty quickly. I encourage all of you to go try it.
