Wonderful ambienceThe etouffe was delicious. The prices are reasonableI will go back

SO glad I got to visit CreoLa, as I've had it bookmarked for a few months now. Food: The food here is excellent. To start, I had the corn hush puppies (fried perfectly), which had a delicious sauce. Next, I ahad the cornmeal crusted catfish with green beans, mashed potatoes, and cornbread. The portion size was great. The food itself was scrumptious and each item was cooked to a T. To finish, I had some beignets with chocolate sauce; simple, and a nice way to end the meal. Service: The service staff are great. All very friendly and good with recommendations/explaining items on the menu/providing suggestions. Ambiance: Beautiful decor and homey! It certainly feels like there are dashes of Creole culture in the room with you, as you dine, which makes for an even more unique dining experience Creole food/culture is far and few in the Bay Area.

Great southern foodGreat serviceEasy parking Great experience overall. Will come back for sure!

This may be one of the best creole restaurants in the Bay Area by faaaar!! I was looking for something flavorful to eat while I was visiting Belmont and came across this gem. I ordered TOGO so I couldn't get a feel for the full ambiance inside The parking lot is pretty small so be aware of this. My friend and I ordered the Shrimp Crawfish Étouffée and Beignets 5/5 on flavor and taste. Super delicious and recommend Louisiana Catfish Filet 5/5. not salty at all and seasoned to perfection. NOT OVERCOOKED OR UNDERCOOKED in the slightest. AMAZING! I got my fish fried! (Comes with 2 sides). My ONLY complaint is that the portions weren't big enough! Maybe if we ate there they would have been bigger?? Still a 5/5 for me!!
