Bojax Kitchen

Stopped by here last Friday with my brother to grab breakfast, before shopping for our annual BBQ. The restaurant inside is small with about 4 tables and then there is a tent with 2 or 3 more two seater tables out front. The neighborhood is what it is, but no extracurricular activities that morning.

I ordered the eggs, grits and salmon croquettes (now that I think about it, he never asked how I wanted my eggs prepared-so not sure if there are options outside of scrambled with hella pepper). The grits were a good consistency and hella buttery. The salmon croquettes were not store bought frozen patties and I was pleased, but they could use a bit more seasoning. My brother had the grits, links and eggs and he was ok with them.

Prices are cool the staff was friendly and the food was alright.

New little breakfast spot in the area. I hadn't noticed it changed from the old soul food spot that it used to be until my boyfriend pointed it out to me! We were starving and wanted breakfast food! Not that fast shit. So we came in. Owner was outside talking to someone, as he seen us approaching he ran in. Which is great customer service to me!

Upon walking in, it was a little messy inside on counter where you order and inside the kitchen. The place is small, I think I seen maybe 4-6 tables. So you can dine in! I'd take out only because I tend to get claustrophobic.

Owner greeted us and asked what we would like. We looked at the menu for a minute. I chose the Al's Special! I love me some rice with ground beef! For me personally the it was too eggy. I thought it was more of a rice plate, turns out it's more eggs and ground beef lite rice. I added onions as it doesn't come with. For me it was a miss. I thought ground beef had flavor, I'm just not a egg type of girl. Don't judge me!

My baby ordered the fruity pebbles pancakes with eggs and sausage. It was good.. only disappointing factor was they didn't give us any butter, syrup or even jelly! So pancakes were just dry fruity pebbles pancakes.

I think the owner was short staffed as we only seen him in the kitchen. So that's why I'll say our first time here wasn't a total success. So we'll definitely be back to support the business and try something else. Hopefully they are staffed up next time.

Best burgers in town hands down!! It's the best kool aid, French fries and fruity pebbles pancakes of all time.

"Bojax Kitchen" is a small eatery in East Oakland that serves up delicious freshly prepared meals for breakfast and lunch. The other day I was in the area looking for an address, and noticed this new restaurant. It had already closed for the day, but for some reason I remembered the name. So yesterday I had a craving for a traditional breakfast, I was flipping thru my DoorDash app, and it popped up...."Bojax Kitchen."

I ordered the French Toast w/ eggs and sausage.

Positives:

The French Toast was great! Three thick slices, cinnamon flavor, moist and still hot. The two slices of breakfast sausage were juicy, with a strong flavor. Didn't taste like frozen sausage. The side of scrambled eggs were perfectly blended.

Negatives:

You forgot the butter and syrup in the order. Menu doesn't say it's extra.

BTW, I watched their video, Bojax Kitchen boasts the "best soul food in Oakland!"

So, overall a 4-star experience.

Located on MacArthur Blvd near 61st Ave. Near Mills College.

A little too greasy for mei; however, service was great.
I thought orders would be larger too.

Great place, food is good. The service is fast and you know I love to support my black owned business. This is one of my trusted favorite food spots.

Good thing I didn't listen to the review. I came here on a weekday morning, it was a little wet, but a gorgeous morning nonetheless.

It was pretty empty when I arrived with one woman holding down the fort. She was very welcoming and prepared my food quickly. I ordered the pork chops and grits and the food had EXCELLENT seasoning --and I'm one that has a very sensitive pallet. Portion sizes were perfect. I would definitely come back here on my next visit to the bay

Great food. With fast service. Order breakfast yesterday. It was delicious and ready on time. I will be back. Thank you i ordered the shrimp, eggs and grits. I got my shrimp fried you can get grilled as well

I really wanted to like this place as I love to support black owned businesses and I would give more stars as the food is not bad. I've had my share of good and bad with this place. As stated the food is good. Not much seasoning is needed after you receive the food. The service is... meh. I've had my order cancelled, I've not received all of the items that I've ordered and lastly. I ordered food for pickup on Yelp, received confirmation that my food was ready but when I arrived at the restaurant no one was there. TV was on in the restaurant but no answer to me knocking. I called and no one answered. This went on for 20 minutes. I finally called Grubhub for a refund. Grubhub said they could not give me a refund as the restaurant indicated that they have prepared the food. So I had to dispute the charge with my bank...

Food was cold and the pancakes was extremely dry. The orange juice was very fresh. They are fast that's a plus
