I visited Angelina’s Louisiana Kitchen in Berkeley and overall had a solid experience, with some clear highlights and a few areas for improvement.

The restaurant has a cozy, quiet vibe that works well for medium-sized groups or a casual date night. The Mardi Gras–inspired décor (greens and golds) is fun, though the space feels a bit dark, even during the daytime. Service was courteous but not especially fast; that said, my server Grant was clearly hustling and seemed to be covering a lot of ground on his own.

Parking can be a challenge. There’s limited street parking with time restrictions. Your best option is to go straight to the parking structure about a block and a half away. It is conveniently located across the street from tbe Berkely Public Library.

For food:
The Cajun grilled shrimp appetizer was good but not memorable. The shrimp were done well, and the sauce didn’t initially stand out flavor-wise, though a second taste revealed a mild, sweet jerk-style profile with subtle heat. The bread, however, was excellent—crusty outside, warm and soft inside.

The crawfish etouffee had good texture and balance, with enjoyable Cajun spice that added flavor without overwhelming heat. I thought the green onions would be too much, but they did not overpower the dish and provided great texture. I have a big appetite. The portions were satisfying, but not enough for me to take home for leftovers.

Where this place truly shines is dessert. The chocolate cayenne cake was outstanding—moist, rich, slightly crunchy on the outside, with great chocolate flavor and a subtle kick of cayenne and orange. The bourbon vanilla whipped cream was light and delicately flavored. The beignets were perfect: warm, golden brown, chewy inside, and generously dusted with powdered sugar. Absolute must-haves! There were enough beignets to take home and they were still good cold.

Overall, my experience started around a 3.5, but the desserts alone bumped it to about a 4.2 out of 5. I would absolutely come back—honestly, I’d return just for the desserts.

Really had a great time at this restaurant as the vibe was really enjoyable. Parking can be tricky but you might be able to get a space right out front. We enjoyed the catfish, gumbo and fried chicken. The waiter informed us that both the catfish and crawfish are flown in daily from Louisiana. That’s how the food tastes like it’s from NOLA. Also loved the beignets for desserts.

My understanding is, that anything that ist not fried in this establishment, is absolutely inedible for someone who eats well. Then again I may be wrong, because the Hush Puppies were fried and also really ‘not good’. Brussel sprouts were burnt black, sweet potatoes mash was overcooked and fortified with too much sugar (it was already sweet), mushroom jambalaya was ok, yet bland, Cheese grits tasted horrible and looked very unappetizing. Unless you wanna have a beer and some fried food (in who knwos what), leave this place alone with its naive patrons.
Service was excellent though, so my two stars are for the lovely, hard working persons there. Good luck y’all!

This restaurant perfectly captures the vibe of NOLA – jazz music, weathered walls adorned with tiled crocodiles, trinkets, and trumpets. The service is super cheerful and quick. We ordered Angeline’s Gumbo, Buttermilk Fried Chicken, and Beignets – each dish was rich, deep, and full of flavor, nearly perfect. We loved everything so much that we even ordered extra to take home. I can’t wait to come back and try more of the menu. Definitely one of my best NOLA experiences in the Bay Area!

Highly rated for a reason! The jambalaya was heavenly and I would come here again just for that. We got baked mac and cheese & the house salad as sides and they were both very delicious. We also ordered the buttermilk chicken. It was very tender, but I expected more flavor from it and the sauce. Kind servers and wonderful experience! I recommend getting a reservation.

Nice spot for Louisiana (creole) food! The shrimp tasted great and the fried chicken was awesome. The green beans looked like they were just steamed and not necessarily sautéed or anything but the sauce for my creole shrimp made up for it. Outdoor seating is nice and service was very friendly and attentive. A little pricey but I didn’t mind given how good the food was and the portions are generous.

Angeline’s was a very tasty authentic southern meal and I was excited to have Abita root beer for the first time in a while. We got the BBQ shrimp, Mac & cheese, and etouffee as well as the bananas foster bread pudding. It was all really well made, and served hot. It was filling and definitely delivered the Southern comfort that Creole/Cajun food promises. The service was also really great and attentive.

Brought friends who were either vegetarians or pescatarian. We ordered both veggie and regular jambalaya, voodoo shrimp, yams, brussel sprouts and beignets. We enjoyed the flavorful meal with great textures.
