If you're in Oakland, Smelly's Creole Catering LLC is a must-try! We arrived with a reservation and were promptly seated in a clean, trendy atmosphere with great background music.
The *fried shrimp* and *fried fish* were seasoned to perfection - 10/10! The *Mac & Cheese* was an absolute winner at 100/10. I was pleasantly surprised by the *garlic green beans*, although others in the group rated them a bit lower.
Service was extraordinary; our waiter was attentive and made great suggestions. Just a heads-up - parking can be tricky! But the flavorful food and vibrant atmosphere make it worth the hunt. I'll definitely be back! 😊
