Miss Ollie's

After creating a fan base in San Francisco and Oakland by appeasing the foodies with lip-smacking Caribbean food at various restaurants and pop up kitchens at bars across the city, award-winning Chef Sarah Kirnon made a smart move by opening her first restaurant closer to the Oakland city center. Result is a culinary onslaught by the master-chef, backed by the same chicken, crab and grits delicacies which earned her a name among the food connoisseurs. The food, as she boasts, is deeply inspired by her grandmother's take on Caribbean food, which she appears to have mastered to perfection. Do try the goat stew which is served with red beans and rice, and, of course, the fried chicken just to check out what the hype is all about.
