St. John's Soul Food

I'm a Louisiana native and this food is excellent. Got to try their ribs, fish, and oxtails--its on point. The workers are very friendly.

FINALLY SOME GOOD SOUL FOOD IN LIVERMORE!!! Today was my first time trying this joint and the young lady who helped me is so kind and welcoming. For my first time there i had a lot of questions and having not ate all day I couldn’t make up my mind on what to order lol everything looked and sounded so good. The young lady was very patient with me; a huge thank you to her!! I wish I had got her name :/ she was so helpful but I ordered the Beef Brisket with potato salad and Macaroni ‘N Cheese as my sides and I added on a chicken wing as a side order which was omg so juicy, crispy and flavorful!!! Can’t go wrong with it honestly! It was my first time ever trying beef brisket and it was so tender, juicy and full of flavor!! As for my sides I absolutely loved their Macaroni ‘N Cheese it was literally made to perfection!! Every bite was hella comforting! The Potato Salad was also hella good and fresh it was not no store bought salad thank God!! You can tell everything by the taste and flavor of it is homemade. I also got a side order of their hush puppies which was really nice and cripsy… Now I originally wanted their hot links but they were all pork, the kind lady said they will have other meat options for their links soon so I’ll definitely be back forsure for that and I also wanna try to make room for their dessert next time.. Thank you St. John’s for the amazing food and service!!

I'm a Louisiana native, and like a moth to a flame, I am always trying the newest Louisiana-themed places around here. I had very little faith in one opening up in Livermore, but this is LEGIT. Everything is cooked with love and it tastes so good. It's great to see a family-run restaurant that really delivers good soul food! And they are friendly and gracious!

We had:
Gumbo
Fried Catfish
Hush puppies
Black eyed peas
Fried chicken
Red beans and rice
And seasoned curly french fries ( for the kids)

Everything was good. My favorites were the catfish, gumbo, hush puppies and black eyes peas. The hush puppies were so good. The gumbo had crab, sausage and seafood and was legit.

I felt like I was back home. If I had one gripe, I'd wish the portion sizes were bigger. I live within 5 minutes of this place and I will visit often. I'm so glad they are here!
