Bay Area soul food · Oakland
Oakland's soul food canon was built by African American families across West Oakland and Temescal. Today Geoff Davis's Burdell carries it at Michelin Recommended level.
Black migration from the American South to Oakland during World War II built the foundation. West Oakland became a soul food district along with the city's growing African American population. Family kitchens, barbecue smokers and gospel-influenced brunch run a network across West Oakland and Temescal that's still very much alive in 2026.
