Southern Comfort Kitchen has a drive-thru? I'm writing this review to share for those exploring Alameda Island that Southern Comfort Kitchen has a few locations throughout the East Bay (and many may know this restaurant for its food truck), but they now has a new(er) location in Alameda. As a parent, I never knew how much I would appreciate a drive-thru at spots like Walgreens, Starbucks, and now, an actual restaurant! It's the little things sometimes that really help to take the heavy lift off, while giving back the flexibility and energy to the driver :) While I can't speak for the interior of the restaurant, we did roll through the drive-thru to test it out over the weekend while exploring Alameda and all of its charm. On a Saturday evening it seemed like they were pretty swamped, and no one was responding at the drive-thru window so we figured maybe it was closed. We pulled up and my husband got out of the car to confirm before we pulled away with a worker inside the restaurant and they apologized. Almost immediately someone came to the window and gave us printed menus because we had already passed the digital menu part of the drive-thru. We ordered hush puppies, a fried shrimp po' boy sandwich, mac n' cheese, and bread pudding. Oh wee, we had a feast when we arrived home and reheated everything! I think they may still be working out some kinks, but I'm open to trying the drive-thru again next time we're in town post brewery fun. A drive-thru in the East Bay for Cajun bites? Very cool! I've explored their menu before and wow, that bread pudding! Special. Would go back for that alone to try it hot from the oven! read more

This place is not it for Cajun food or food in general. Being from the south, I was super excited to try this spot, but nothing was good about it. I ordered to-go blackened fish platter with red beans and rice, and a chicken sandwich with fries. It took 30 min for the food to come out and when I opened the fish, it wasn't even slightly warm (mmm, room temperature fish!). What's more disappointing is that everything was severely overcooked and dry and nothing tasted remotely Cajun or appetizing. This place isn't exactly cheap, either. And all I can say about the ambience is it's got a cafeteria vibe. Anyway, I gave it two stars because the front people are at least friendly, but I in no way, shape or form recommend this restaurant. read more

Wow. This place has gone so downhill since they opened. First of all, the Alameda location seems to be the redheaded stepchild of the group. All other locations get things like soft shell crab or crawfish. Alameda? Nooooot anymore. The execution has also just gone way downhill. The gumbo in our most recent order was salty to the point of borderline edible. Really really unfortunate. read more

I've been many times and the last was an off day, I noticed new cook was there. I got an oyster poor boy, it was loaded with oysters which is a plus, my only complaint, it was overwhelmed by too much sauce drowning the flavors of the whole sandwich. I tried scraping some off but there was just too much sauce. We also got the Cajun fries, it was good, and the Mac and cheese, that was my favorite for that day, nice al dente pasta. read more

I placed the order via door dash for pick up so I can't speak too much to the service but I could see the kitchen may have been overwhelmed once we arrived to grab our order. That said, the food was on point! The shrimp in the classic po boy was cooked to absolute perfection. Crispy on the outside with succulent, juicy shrimp on the inside. The bread tasted fresh and came with a good balance of sauce, tomato, and pickles. The crab fries were well portioned and TASY!! I will definitely be back for these! read more

Yep, Southern Comfort is a solid 4. I had spent 10 days in Alameda and was looking for something different and interesting. This was it. I am a southern boy and love my Cajun food. I was really busy while in town and was thrilled that Grubhub delivered to my address. I ordered fried catfish ans shrimp. The catfish was mild sand perfectly seasoned, The ship was also good, but wish I had tarter sauce. Maybe I missed is. My son wanted Etoufee', but unfortunately, it dropped off of the menu later in the day. We got the seafood gumbo instead and it did not disappoint. I also think I would like hushpuppies in the future as well. Southern Comfort filled my soul! Yeah, I enjoyed my meal very much and will definitely order from them again! read more

I ordered to go and was excited when I opened the lid but was then disappointed when I started eating.

While you won't be fooled into thinking you're in Coop's, in New Orleans, the food at Alameda's own Southern Comfort Kitchen is a loving reminder to our times in the Big Easy. The fried oyster po-boy was an excellent execution of the dish, although the hush puppies were a little more like Jiffy corn muffins than I remember from Bourbon Street. The very basic, even austere, cafeteria setting reminds me of family-run places down south. Everything that we tried, and the very helpful and personable staff, makes it easy to return. read more

The food is worth the wait. I recommend you plan ahead, or have an alternate dish to order because it will get busy. Catfish Po' Boy, I inhaled it. I went on a Sunday and got their beignets, just amazing. They are worth it. This food will help heal your soul. I just tried the Mac and Cheese. Life-changing. read more

First time and not sure Clean organized and spacious Themed wall designs and frames Staff were quick and friendly Order was fast Fries were good but I think my 50/50 combo, the fish were slightly overcooked and seafood gumbo wasn't to my taste Will have to try again, maybe when it's not too busy read more

I have eaten several times at Southern Comfort Kitchen Castro Valley and their Food Truck!!! I was aware this location opened up in Alameda 5 months ago. I rolled there today for Dinner and walked in . They were Busy as they have a Drive thru also. They seemed Over Whelmed with the Door Dash Orders . Some of the Kitchen Staff seemed undertrained. Their front Counter staff were stressed out and let the Door Dash Drivers know it . When it was my turn I Ordered a Large Bowl of Gumbo and Catfish and Fries Platter!!! My Order was 113 I waited 30 Minutes for my order and people that ordered after me were getting the orders before me WTF? Dining Room was pretty Dirty!!! Floors needed to be Swept and Tables wiped down. It was Night and Day from their Castro Valley Location!!! When I did get my food ! The Gumbo was Good!!! Just could have been hotter. The Catfish was Fried to Perfection!!! French Fries were Salted to Heavily!!! For these Reasons this is not a Baller On A Budget Approved Establishment read more

How this place got three stars is beyond me. Takeout order of Gumbo. Tasted like poorly seasoned gravy. Also had Etouffee. Tasted like burnt gravy. Ordered hush puppies. They were not in the bag. Called to complain and they wouldn't pick up the phone. As you can tell from my name, I have a little experience with Louisiana food. They might be experienced at something, but not with this. They should be embarrassed to call this anything but slop. read more

We had the cashier chose 3 of the best meals 50/50 w/catfish, shrimp and over the fries crab! 100% awesome Who Dat Shrimp with fries. Over the top with creamy creole sauce. A must order Crawfish Etouffee. Omg just like orleans! The bomb! And to end the meal being Sunday BEIGNETS. What a way to end a great meal. It was nice and quiet and ambiance was relaxing. Alameda folks, what you waiting for! There's a parking lot and drive thru. We are definitely coming back! Keep up the great food and service! read more

Ive been here once before while working out in alameda and i fell in love with everything! i came in tonight after work super excited to come here again and have my significant other try this out because he is more of a foodie than me. got there about 9:45 ordered a bit of everything to try and waited about 5 minutes for our food once we got to the window. it's unfortunate to say my 3 stars are due to the very tall gentleman at the window who seemed annoyed at the fact we were there even though they close at 11..... i remembered his friendly face from last time i came here but he was so rude this time... as we finished ordering i said thank you and he forgot to stop the intercom and i heard what he had to say about us "mannn why the f** do people" etc i couldnt catch the rest but i was so shocked at that to begin with.... like wow how rude couldnt even wait to let go of the button before talking smack. once we pulled up i paid, he was kind for a bit and then back to the bitter attitude. he forgot my drink until i had to ask for it , forgot my straw so i asked him for it and then i proceeded to check the bag to make sure there were forks and he had already closed the window, when i got his attention he looked SOOO bothered it made me uncomfortable. i even threw in a "im sorry if its not too much to ask can i get a fork" and he handed me them and proceeded to slam the window in my face loudly. definitely didnt shut casually because the first time it didnt slam like that. overwll the food is so delicious but next time i'll save myself the trip across the bridge. wont be coming back to this location at all. OH and i forgot to mention i made sure to ask for no pickles and they still threw them on there. read more

5 star review because of the amazing customer service! Guy at the counter was so nice and helpful! Food was great, just as it is on the truck and at the Castro Valley location! Finally made it in on a Sunday to get beignets and yum!! The crawfish étouffée is always a hit! The gumbo was different than what we are use to...but still good. Location is easy to locate. Good amount of seating. Small parking lot behind building. Love that they close later even on a Sunday. read more

My dining buddy took me to the Alameda's Southern Comfort Kitchen. More parking as compared to the Castro Valley store. Equally friendly staff and comparable menu. My go to menu item is the fried oysters and red beans & rice. Ordinarily at the CV ordering the fried oysters without fries, they offer an extra oyster in its place, here they offer side items such as salad the eventually discovered they were out so they offered several oysters as an accommodation. I guess it worked out well at the end. Having the oysters and red beans & rice was definitely too much for my appetite. So leftover they became. Overall friendly staff, speedy food delivery, the only knock is better ventilation as it was a warm day and the dining room was warm and stuffy. I would return if I'm in the neighborhood. read more

Nice local spot in Alameda. Shares outdoor patio with Subway. There is parking, very limited spaces. Ordered Catfish Po boy with cajun fries. Looked and tasted amazing! Sauce was the main savory topping on my catfish! Sandwich was moist and a great balance of flavor. Sauce is flavorfully scrumptious. Great amount of food for a meal. Catfish 9/10 Fries 9/10 Sauce 10/10 Sandwich 10/10 There were 3 gentlemen working at the time I ordered. A cashier, assisted person helping and a cook. Cashier can work on his customer service but that doesn't matter cause it's the food taste and cleanliness that matters to me. read more

I love southern cooking. Don't know if this case it's the location or the style. Jambalaya and a shrimp po boy. The po boy was very good and had a nice kick to it. Shrimp was really on the salty side. The bread was little off but it's passable. Jambalaya looked promising and it's good but I do feel like salt upstages everything. The chicken and the sausage were there, not much sausage. The peppers and celery were there. Service was straightforward as I was only picking up the food. A little too strong with the salt. They do have many many options from chicken sandwiches to waffles. read more

I love Southern food, and I definitely enjoyed my experience at Southern Comfort Kitchen! The restaurant has a mid-size space with a few seating on a first-come-first-served basis. Their brown sugar lemonade was absolutely delicious--I was obsessed with it. It may not look like much in the picture I attached, but trust me, it's really good. My friend and I wanted to try everything on their menu, but since it was just the two of us, we settled on three dishes: Fried Catfish with Cajun Fries, Seafood Gumbo, and the Southern Fried Chicken Sandwich. The fried catfish was good, although I felt there was more breadcrumb than fish. However, the Cajun fries were fried perfectly and tasted amazing. Although I'm not usually a big fan of gumbo, I actually enjoyed theirs--it was flavorful and satisfying. The highlight for me was definitely the Fried Chicken Sandwich. The chicken was packed with flavor, incredibly juicy, and each bite left me wanting more. I'll definitely be coming back to try other items on their menu--and to sip on that brown sugar lemonade again! read more

Southern Comfort Kitchen - Menu - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Alameda, California

1708 Webster St Alameda, CA 94501 "Southern Comfort Kitchen" offers fast-casual Cajun food at fair prices. This new restaurant takes over the location of Kowloon Station, next door to Subway Sandwiches. They call it "fast-casual" food, but it's not fast food. I've been there twice, and wait times are about 10-15 mins. Of course it depends on how busy they are. I have seen customers leaving with 2-3 big bags of food. So this restaurant chain probably has a lot of fans already. Okay, my first visit was Friday night, Oct 4, around 9pm. I had to wait while a customer placed a huge order. I ordered the "50/50 Shrimp and Catfish w/ Cajun Fries." I took my order home and discovered they forgot the Cajun Fries. I drove back to the restaurant and asked for my fries. The young man at the counter said my order doesn't include Cajun Fries. He said there's a glitch in their new computer system that makes that mistake. I told him the menu says "with fries," my receipt says "with fries," and the order taker asked me how I wanted my fries (hard or soft). Then a voice from the back said "give him the fries." Folks, check your order before you leave. But how was the food? "50/50 Shrimp and Catfish w/ Cajun Fries" was very good! The Shrimp and Catfish were fresh and tasty. No fishy smell. The catfish meat was flaky and firm. The cornmeal batter had just the right seasoning. It's not salty. Those Cajun fries were excellent. They were worth going back for. Grade (5/5) for the food, Grade (2/5) for the service. My second visit was on a very warm Sunday. It was 12-noon, and temps were near 90*F. I met up with another Yelp Elite for lunch. I wanted to share opinions and observations about this place. Brett, the owner, was taking orders and thanking us for coming. The kitchen looked very busy. I ordered: "Crab Cajun Fries," Carrot Cake, and Unsweetened Ice Tea. The crab was fresh, moist, and not fishy. The Cajun Fries gave the dish a mildly salty taste. The carrot cake was moist, fresh, and the taste was perfect. The unsweetened tea needs to be a bit stronger to stand up to the ice. Food (4/5), Service (4/5), Decor (4/5). If you Dine-in, you might be served with real plates and silverware. MISC Tips: - Small shared parking in back. - The main entrance has steps. If that's a problem, use the parking lot entrance in back. - Small outdoor enclosed patio - Large screen TV in dining room - restrooms in rear of dining room. - has a drive thru Overall, a good experience, and I will return. Support Local Business! Welcome to Alameda, The Island City! read more

.Southern Comfort was Janis Joplin's fav 70 proof whiskey liqueur. S.C. Had no known food relation then. 3 blind men feeling an elephant has separate and equally valid experiences. These examples show how misunderstandings re food occur. Cajun/creole food has many styles with all labeled as part of the former. Eating breaded oysters, sausage jambalaya, 'po boys, & muffaletta separately are valid but incomplete cajun/creole experiences. Southern Comfort Kitchen opened where Kowloon Station 1 was. Basically same seating/infrastructure. New signage, flatscreen. Drill: order, pd at counter, food brought to table 10ish minutes. Offerings: appetizers/sides, New Orlean dishes, Po' boys, salads, sandwiches, desserts, drinks: wine, new orleans beer... Bites: Blacken Fish Platter (18) from New Orleans section. -mix greens, carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers sans visible dressing. Buds tastes allusive "secret" sauce which makes salad an hit. Large serving blacken brussels sprouts thin as paper with sea salt, pepper & maple syrup drizzle, crispy as chips. Sprouts dehydrated, lacks fibre crunch. Innovative technique utilized.. Boneless rainbow trout ( wild?) flaky, tender, moist with sweet notes from being atop sprouts. Blacken with constant spooning of butter on both sides when flipped. Probably dipped in marinate of paprika, dry mustard, cayenne pepper, cumin, black pepper, white pepper, dry thyme, & salt before being braised/grilled. 4.5 stars yum. Makes cajun/creole experience complete. Many diverse choices available. *while this experience was stellar, previous ones were 4 stars. read more

Me and my girl came here on a non-busy afternoon. Place seemed rather dark, not here for that. Here for the food! Employees were friendly! That's a great start. Food review: 1. Side Mac and cheese - shells were al dente, seasonings and the cheese sauce consistency were up there. Overall a good side item! 2. Quarter Muffaletta - my girl loved this one and the Crab Cajun Fries! The olive tapenade was nice and chunky. Salami and BF Ham was a good ratio with the cheese, Foccacia bread is nice and fluffy. 3. Crab Cajun Fries - the seasoning was pretty spot on on the fries, but as we kept eating the fries, it got saltier. The sauce we thought was a blend of cheese and mayo, wasn't cheese at all. Oh wells, the flavors were there. Crab ratio with the fries, it was only on top of the fries, we were hoping for more once we dug in middle, but nope. Its good though, that's what mattered. 4. Side portion Crawfish Etouffee, the thickness of the gravy were there. Fluffy rice is a plus. Flavors were spot on...BUT WHERE'S THE CRAWFISH?!?! I had about 1 piece crawfish maybe 2...and a half at the most. The chunks included in the gravy were vegetables and herbs. Do they make this gravy in a big batch? Or to order? I don't know, but the crawfish ratio needs to be more than less than 3 pieces. 5. Entree portion Seafood Gumbo - again fluffy rice, good job! BUT hmm...man this had no flavor at all. 2 pieces of shrimp, and 2 pieces of (maybe fish) but the consistency of chicken in a bowl full of watered down black roux gravy that happened to have no flavor. We did not enjoy this one. I've had better Gumbo/Gumbo-like dishes elsewhere. Overall experience was good! The food...most hit, some didn't. Will definitely try coming back again. Not soon, but someday. But at the same time, the prices on the menu were like coming to a low end steakhouse joint. Portions were a bit skimp. Big potential. This joint is probably still fairly brand new, it'll grow and make its way. 3 stars. read more

Date: 10/6/2024 Time: 12:00 PM 88° Hot A fellow yelper and I decided to have lunch at Southern Comfort Kitchen. Meeting time: 12 Noon. This meet-up was to share our opinion and views, mainly the food they offered to its customer. The topic of service was whether or not it was good or bad. The ambiance was okay. I love their signage/logo mounted on the wall in my favorite colors, purple and gold. About nine years ago, Southern Comfort Kitchen was one of the food trucks at an event on Webster Street. At that time, I only ordered the bread pudding. Needless to say that bread pudding was cold. I was not impressed. It resulted in my giving them a 3 star rating. Moving forward to nine years later, Southern Comfort Kitchen opened at this Alameda location about three weeks ago. Location: 1708 Webster Street, Alameda. This site used to be Der Weinerschnitzel, then Kowloon Station 1. Menu board is mounted above the counter. Okay I have a neck problem staring at that menu board for more than five minutes. It is a strain on my neck. So I have to wing it and tell the employee/owner Brett that I am ordering the shrimp and grits and unsweetened tea. However, I did see a menu on the counter near the cash register. I should've looked there. Seating capacity indoor: guesstimate 30 people. The front entrance has two steps to the front door. There is a side entrance, glass door leading from the parking lot. I believe that entrance is wheelchair assessible. There is an outdoor patio situated between Subway and Southern Comfort. Specialties: appetizers and sides, New Orleans menu items ranging from seafood, chicken, po boys, sandwiches, salads, desserts (beignets on Sundays only, bread pudding and carrot cake) and an assortment founain drinks and three types of teas - sweetened, unsweetened and brown sugar lemonade. Eats and beverage: blackened shrimp and grits with unsweetened tea. Shrimp and grits were tasty, but I had better elsewhere. The texture of the grits was too cheesy, smooth but not creamy enough (3.5 stars). The iced tea was slightly underwhelming. It needed to be stronger. (3 stars) Per my yelp friend, he enjoyed the Cajun crab fries and carrot cake. Crab was fresh and the fries seasoned with garlic. Carrot cake was moist and I imagine it was delicious. Service was very good. Brett, the owner, was friendly and helpful. Also I don't want to forget mentioning that a customer has the option of dining with stainless steel silverware and a dinner plate (not paper). (4 stars) There is only one flatscreen to watch football game. Plenty artwork on the walls. Ambiance is comfy and casual. Finally, Southern Comfort Kitchen is a welcome addition to the Alameda community. Return visit: Yes, mos def and I am not talking about the rap singer. Looking forward to the hush puppies, green beans and the jambalaya. Overall rating: 3.5 stars rounded up to 4 stars. read more

So, I was so excited to see that they are in Alameda and a drive thru is just the icing on the cake. My drive thru experience was great. I ordered a gumbo and crawfish etouffee. We also ordered a 50/50 which was delicious. The only reason I took one star off was because the etouffee didn't have hardly any crawfish but great flavor. The customer service was on point and my order was quick and fresh. The place looks great and is in a great location. read more

Sometimes I crave a really good crispy catfish plate and this place helps me fill that craving! I grew up eating catfish made by my Louisiana fam so I am a bit picky about my fried catfish. Is this the best catfish ever? No, but it's tasty and their fries are also crispy... and bonus for a decent portion size. They also have a drive thru! read more

The food is good. My favorite is the crawfish etouffee and the 50/50. Have to get the brown sugar lemonade everytime!

I've been in love with their food truck for quite some time, so to hear that they were opening a location down the street from me was fantastic news! They recently moved into what once housed a Wienerschnitzel and then after that for a short time, Kowloon Station. The decor needs work but each day I walk by, I see they are really sprucing the place up and making it their own! Yay! Items I've had so far and loved: - Who Dat Chicken Strips: that sauce is to die for and chicken is tender! - Lil Weezy Chicken Strips: think Wingstop Buffalo Lemon Pepper and then times that taste by 100. - Crawfish Etoufee - Southern Chicken Sandwich: big, juicy, good proportions - Cajun Fries: so crispy and good! Good portion! - Blackened Shrimp w/ seasoned rice - Seafood Gumbo: good amount of seafood! Love that it comes with rice (as it should but some other places of the same cuisine seem to forget this) I went yesterday, but I had to try it again today. Place was filled with seated customers. Good music playing at a good volume. Staff was so nice when I went to pick up my food. Food was delicious as I ate it at home. Can't wait to frequent this place more often and wish it great success! As of 9/17: Drive thru is currently not open but they are working on a drive thru menu (smart) and it should be open soon! read more

I'm SO glad that Southern Comfort Kitchen decided to open a location in Alameda! I loved the Castro Valley spot and couldn't wait to try this location! This restaurant is fast casual where you order at the counter and unlike the Castro Valley location, you can dine in. For two people, we got the brussels sprouts, crawfish etouffee, mac and cheese and jambalaya side portions and also got the shrimp and catfish with cajun fries. All the sides were so delicious! Our favorites were the jambalaya and the mac and cheese! The only thing we didn't love was the catfish since the fish didn't taste fresh and was fishy. They were very generous with all the side portions and we ended up taking a lot of the food home! I'm so happy that this Cajun restaurant decided to open in Alameda and can't wait to try all the other menu options! :) read more
