The entrance way is tiny. The older woman that is supposed to greet customers is not that friendly and came off a little rude. She told me they can’t take my order because they may not have enough food to fulfill it. The bartender was nice and the reason my order was placed. The atmosphere reminds me of a juke joint and that was kool. Good music! The fried chicken was fried to perfection but wasn’t seasoned. The greens could have been cooked a little longer. The yams had a different taste than what I’m used to the Mac n cheese was ok but has a garlic hint of flavor , not a huge fan . Also this meal was expensive. I did have cocktails ( on the high end) will I come back? Probably not but it was an experience. So I went back lol and I regret it! I got 2 oxtail plates and the oxtail were undercooked tuff and burnt, I shouldn’t have gone back !

I had a wonderful time at Rob Ben’s. Here were six people in my party. Parking was very convenient. Upon entering, we heard the sound of R&B music playing in. The background. The server, Serena, met us with a smile. We were seated within minutes. At the time, Serena advised us that she was the lone server. She took our drink orders, and then she assisted other customers. It wasn’t long before she returned with drinks. She then took our food order. After maybe 15-20 minutes, our food arrived. We were pleased to see the generous size portions of each meal. The food was seasoned well. Not too much, but just enough to taste the flavor. My entire party had to go bags. We took a group picture and included a picture with Serena. She is now our honorary sister. The food was delicious and priced appropriately. The service and atmosphere were great. I highly recommend Rob Ben’s and give it two .

I was shocked to see the amount of fish I got, it was so yummy, Prefectly soft inside and very crunchy outside. The cook gave me sample of the cake and I just had to add it to my take out order. The red beans and rices were so good and soft. The garlic green beans were too soft and the free corn bread was too sweet for my liking. The service was amazing, it feels like I’m dropping by a family’s house when I stop at Rob Ben’s! Thank you!

It is the best place in the Bay to have Savory Shrimp and Grits! Never Fails me! All the food is delicious. Be nice cuz they have a small staff so you might have to wait to be seated but while you are waiting ….decide what you want so you can tell the waiter right away when you are seated. They have games including playing cards and dominoes so you can get a round or two in before food is served. It’s all worth the wait !!! The service is kind and considerate. I couldnt even get any pictures because we devoured the food as soon as it got to the table. Me and my pops shared shrimp and grits and ordered the red beans/ rice and green beans for sides and couple peices of fish al la carte. We barely finished it all but we did. It’s very down home vibes!

This is my husband and mine 4th time returning back, I felt my husband and I had to say something!!!
I’ve brought my entire family and daughter with her kids last summer from Charlotte Carolina. I brought them on a Thursday for “Open Mic Night”.
Feels like I’m at home whenever I walk in, great conversation, great cooking, good drinks, friendly waiters and cooks and constituents, always willing to seat customers quickly and comfortably!
I Love knowing that Marshawn is also involved in his community and gives back more ways than one one

We arrived just as they were opening on a Friday afternoon. I could smell the aromas as we approached the restaurant!! We ordered the Mama lynch that came with fried fish, fried pork chops, and chicken wings…. Our side selections were the red beans and rice, mans and cheese and an extra side of yams… OMG.. the flavors were smacking.. delicious… flavors popping. So good.. our waitress Shawnee , sorry if I misspelled or got your name wrong, was very polite and attentive. She shared that she made the Mac and cheese and red beans and rice with love and that’s exactly how the food tasted, loved
Five stars so delicious . When we return to the area, we will be back.

The BEST soul food ive had since moving to The Bay Area. EVERY other place ive tried has been horrible, for real. So, when Kecia asked when i was coming i was very skeptical.
They absolutely crushed it! We had smothered porkchops, greens, and mac n cheese and Fish n Grits. Very well seasoned, greens were cooked like back home (Texas), mac n cheese was hot and cheesy, good cornbread, creamy and savory grits.
Oh and the drinks! Great selection!
Please understand when they name a drink BeastMode, there’s meaning!

Went for the first time and it was really good. We had the opportunity to speak with the owner Kecia who is wonderful. Our waitress (she was so busy I didn’t get her name but she took care of us) was great. Thank y’all for everything.
Tried the fried oysters, prawns and fish and it was really good. Also had the yams, greens, Mac and cheese and had the Hennessy cake for dessert. Everything was great, I will definitely be coming back every time I’m in the area.
