Friendly, welcoming service, great recommendations on some of their local favorites. Definitely worth the visit if you're in the area for lunch. Recommendations: (1) Jambalaya.

Last Visit: 8/28/2026…read more Brenda's Meat & Three 919 Divisadero St San Francisco, CA 94115 415-926-8657 https://brendasmeatandthree.com/ https://www.yelp.com/biz/brendas-meat-and-three-san-francisco-3 Brenda's Meat & Three is a Southern restaurant in the San Francisco NoPa district. They also have an outpost Brenda's Oakland. Chef Brenda grew up on the West bank of New Orleans, Louisiana. They serve Rib Sticking comfort food. While the quality is good, it is not great. The warm service made up for it. The servers did not come around enough though. 5% SF Mandate. Supper is served 5pm to close. Last visit was January 2020 when fried chicken only cost $14.75! Picks: Cup of Low Country Gumbo ($12) Crab, shrimp, andouille sausage, okra, tomato, rice, scallions was a good sized cup of gumbo. Slightly fishy, several shrimp. 7.5/10 BRENDA'S FRIED CHICKEN ($28) This is their signature dish. Three pieces of our spicy fried chicken with 3 sides. Buttermilk, Eggless batter. We choose Collard Greens, Red Beans & Rice and Glazed Yams. All 3 sides were very good. Great value for what you get. 9/10 Fried Catfish ($25) with Chipotle Remoulade was another Meat and three. Sides were sweet potato fries, mash potatoes, and cole slaw. Again all sides were fine. Catfish came in ample quantity and was fried right. 9/10 BRENDA S FRIED SEAFOOD PO BOY ($26) Choose from cornmeal-fried shrimp, oysters or catfish, with lettuce, tomato & chipotle r moulade. We choose shrimp and found it to be pretty big and hearty. Lots of sauce with some nice bread. Just OK: CHOCOLATE Beignets ($9 for 3) Filled with molten Ghirardelli chocolate are not very sweet except for the sugar topping. Cream Biscuit ($3.25) was VERY rich. This beast must be made with a pound of butter. How about throttling back a little? Would not reorder: None Overall - Very Good Food - Very Good Decor - Good Service - Very Good Value - Very Good Would we come back - Yes

My go to place for Exceptional Fried Chicken and great sides. Order is large enough for 1 sit down meal and 1 leftover meal for later. Friend treated me to brunch for my BD this year. His 1st time here, but don't think it will be his last. Me the 3 piece fried chicken w/mashed taters and gravy and sweet corn. Him the pulled pork Benedict with tater tots. Overall score for us "95", only because my friend was a tad disappointed in the TT's, probably frozen, but he did manage to eat them all. Let's talk service again - when we were ready to pack up the gal brought extra gravy for my taters, filled my beverage in a to go cup and provided foil for my cornbread, all this w/o asking. So skip Kentucky Fried and Popeye's and get yourself to HNC ~ yum!

Our server was great, and the vibe was excellent, definitely a classic SF restaurant! I got the slushee of the day + rum which was super tasty. For food I got the risotto with blackened chicken. It was good, but not the best risotto I've had. There was a bit too much of the misc toppings, and I wish the actual risotto had a bit more flavor. For dessert, we got the beignets. Also pretty good, but not the best ever. They were freshly made and super warm, which was great. Prices are a biiiit steep, but the overall experience and quality of food makes up for it. I would definitely come back!

Writing a review like this is difficult for several reasons, and I very rarely leave negative…read morereviews. As someone who has works in the restaurant industry, I understand firsthand how challenging this business can be, and I have a tremendous amount of respect for the people who work hard to make a dining experience memorable. That's why I don't say this lightly when I say that our food experience tonight was extremely disappointing. We ordered the pork chop, which was okay, but the cabbage side was honestly hard to eat. I'm not sure if it was intended to be slaw or steamed cabbage, but it was essentially wet cabbage with very little flavor. The potatoes were decent, although the portion was quite small and they had a texture that tasted almost like boxed mashed potatoes. The biscuits were extremely dry and hard, and unfortunately, the butter served alongside them wasn't very good either. The spinach that came with the special was, without exaggeration, one of the worst parts of the meal. It had a very unpleasant taste that made us question whether something was off with it. There really wasn't another way to describe it. For a $44 plate, I expect the steak to be cooked properly, the sides to be flavorful and thoughtfully prepared, and the entire dish to feel worth the price. We also ordered a peach soda that was $10, which already feels very expensive for a soft drink. What was even more surprising was finding out that refills were not complimentary. That's something I feel should be clearly communicated when ordering. This is supposed to be soul food, a style of cooking known for bold, comforting, flavorful food. Unfortunately, our meal just didn't deliver that. Everyone at our table left feeling unsatisfied. We spent $163 for three entrées, three drinks, and two orders of biscuits. When you spend that kind of money and the food is exceptional, you leave feeling like it was money well spent. When the experience falls this far short, it's understandably frustrating and leaves you questioning the value. I do want to give credit where it's due: our server was wonderful. We had absolutely no complaints about the service. He was attentive, pleasant, and did her job well. I genuinely hope this feedback is received in the spirit it's intended. I know how difficult the restaurant business is, and I'm not looking to tear anyone down. I simply believe that when a meal costs this much, the quality, flavor, portions, and overall execution should reflect the price.

Visited on a Friday night around 6pm with a friend, restaurant was a little busy probably 70% full…read morebut was able to walk in and grab a table without a wait. Some open seats at the bar as well, so definitely a place you can walk in and visit. Food: 4 piece fried chicken plate - got 1 drumstick, 2 thighs, and 2 small wings ( appreciate the extra piece since these were smaller). The fried chicken was hot and crispy with a great breading, chicken was juicy and moist, lightly seasoned with a fragrant rosemary note. We enjoyed this even more with a dash of hot sauce. Would love to see a spicy version of the fried chicken but very good. Collard Greens - braised well, green were tender and well seasoned a bit salty with lots of flavor Candied Yams - sweet with a cinnamon flavor, these were also very soft and a nice contrast to the savory greens Cornbread - good, moist with a tender crumb, a little buttery, with a lovely subtle sweet corn flavor Bruleed Banana Pudding - amazing, nice caramelized sugar crust on the surface, vanilla pudding was creamy with a subtle sweetness, bananas were perfectly ripe and the nilla wafers were soft and cake like in the dessert, a great combination of textures and flavors Service was excellent, friendly and attentive. Water was refilled throughout our meal. Plates, silverware and napkins were replenished throughout our meal. Food arrived after a short wait of 5-10 minutes. Overall really enjoyed Minnie Bell's a great spot if you are looking for fried chicken, would love to come back to try some of the other soul food dishes. Definitely worth a visit.

My partner and I got an array of items to try. Oxtail: 10/10 A MUST TRY Mac and cheese: 9/10 Good, creaming mac and cheese Collard greens: 6.5/10 I LOVE collard greens. I felt it was okay, a big on the saltier side for me. They only serve vegan greens which I love, but this one didn't quite hit the mark for me. Cornbread: 100/10 Okay if there is anything you have to try here, its the cornbread. Literally the best I have ever had. Sweet, soft and moist. Ive gotten takeout from here for just the cornbread! Candied yams: 8/10 They were good! Nothing to write home about, but they were nicely balanced with some cinnamon. Didn't try the fried chicken, but everything else was pretty solid! I highly recommend giving the place a try. I will say price wise it is on the higher side, but the quality of food meets it for me.

Each dish came in just the right quantity, and it felt like there was a lot of thought put into every dish. Honestly, everything was delicious and worked really well together as a whole. The Hokkaido scallop was probably the best scallop I've ever had. It was a huge scallop that was lightly seared on the outside while still being raw inside, and the natural sweetness was incredible. The cabbage was another standout for me. It was perfectly crunchy with a great balance of savory and sweet flavors. The flavors throughout the meal definitely leaned more on the sweeter side, like the coconut curry with the scallop, the prawn salad dressing, and the cabbage sauce, but everything was really well balanced. I also really liked the guava sorbet. It was a perfect way to end the meal and paired nicely with the more burnt flavors of the other dessert. The presentation was really unique too, with all the plates and bowls having interesting shapes. The soup bowl especially looked like a giant clam shell, although it was pretty funny and slightly difficult to actually drink the soup out of. Definitely recommend.

really cute spot right in the heart of Japantown…read more everything that was served was delicious. drinks were refreshing and well made. the apple honey smokey rice was just strong enough with a satisfying sweet aftertaste. the lemongrass pandan was well balanced, the pandan was not overpowering, and very light. the highlights of the meal were the crispy rice in the fermented beef salad, the crab legs in the curry sauce, and the fermented apple in the duck leg Khao Soi. the one thing I wasn't a huge fan of was the red onion in the cheesecake dessert: it combined well but was not my preference for a sweet item. one hiccup is that although our reservation was set for a la carte, they assumed we were doing a tasting menu, and thus we waited for an extended period of time before we were served at all. waiters also assumed that my brother and i were partners, despite me listing in the reservation that we were celebrating his birthday, which is an awkward and offensive assumption to make. 7.5/10

The fried chicken was good and some pieces like the dark meat was quite juicy which I love. Some of the pieces were quite dry. The waffle was solidly delicious. When drenched in syrup, the waffle was amazing. The cornbread was averagely OK. I feel like it wasn't the highlight of the meal. The other sides like fries and the mac and cheese were also decently average. The highlight definitely was the waffle. Then, the fried chicken comes second. The service was good. The food came out fast and the servers were fine. They were kinda busy though so it was a bit hard to flag the server down. For example we wanted to get ketchup but we waited for a good few minutes for a server to come. The ambiance is amazing. I feel like this place could be a good gathering place for after work events since it feels like a sports bar but a more casual version of it. This place is great to grab a quick bite and it's close to the Caltrain!
