When I tell yall I had the BEST chicken sandwich from here...im so serious! The bun is soft, the chicken is juicy and flavorful, and all the toppings that come in it pair together so well. Amazing chicken sandwich. I was able to come in and place my order immediately. Two of my friends ordered fish sandwiches and they loved them as well. The man at the register was really kind. I took off a start only because it was super hot inside the establishment. The dining area is pretty large and there's plenty of open space. It's just hot in there. The parking lot also fills up pretty quick and it's kinda small but there's street parking on the side. read more

After placing my order on DoorDash I waited about an hour for the order to arrive, per the expected wait time. I wanted to try a few things and save some for later. I ordered the red snapper with fries. The red snapper is slightly cornmeal battered, but barely. I saw it on some pieces of fish and even then it was only in one area or so. Thank goodness I really like fish because it was tolerable, but there really isn't any flavor to it. It was dry too. Same with the fries - it lacked salt and ketchup also wasn't included in the bag. Throughout eating I kept wondering why there wasn't any tartar sauce. The hot sauce added some flavor to the fish though, I will say that. Tartar sauce should always be included. The hush puppies are hush puppies. Good. It's also the only thing I finished. I wish they came with a sauce even if only tartar sauce. The macaroni and cheese isn't classic, but it was okay. I'd still consider it Mac n cheese , but I do prefer down south baked macaroni and cheese with those crispy corners of cheese where the macaroni is a little browned on top in certain areas. Candied yams. yum! I'm happy to have that for later. I was ready for that banana pudding I ordered, too! I received yellow chocolate cake. It was Duncan Hines good, but not what I ordered. read more

Service is excellent and employees are very friendly. Thanks to them for preparing my order as I requested (wearing dentures)Lol... Overall Dixon is a cozy place with lots of menu options. Well worth it! read more

I love this place but the workers are rude , wait time is 30-50 min. They never are open during the time it says. Why they wouldn't be open on Sundays is crazy. I ordered a pick up order on DoorDash. I get to the restaurant and the gate is closed. You can't pull in or anything so I sit there for 20 minutes then I see a Dasher come up to the gate and they bring the food out how is someone supposed to know they supposed to sit at the fucking gate and wait that's hella weird. Unprofessional. read more

Very interesting menu with lots of choices and combinations for breakfast lunch and dinner. Not sure if it has any of the same Dixon family members running it from back in the day but I will say that this establishment is an asset to the community. The parking situation in the lot is very tight and the off street parking is a little sketchy. Only one or two tables available for onsite eating but all and all the chicken and shrimp combo with fries were pretty good and well worth the value. The combo even comes with a can soda :) read more

The food is amazing and super affordable...fish and chicken made to order! The Mac n cheese off the hook!! The greens had mad flavor...yamms sweet and good. It's worth the the wait...definitely a must try!! read more

Was looking for a spot to grab some lunch & pulled up to Dixon's. There's quite a bit to choose from on the menu, seafood, chicken & bbq. The bbq smelled good but I didn't have a taste for it so I went w/the fried seafood. Oysters 4outta5 perfectly cooked Shrimp 3outta5 could of used a touch more breading Snapper 3outta5 good cook, no flavor Hushpuppies 5outta5! Crispy outside moist inside I can only imagine how much more delicious the food could be w/a lil mo seasoning. Service 5outta5 Ambiance 2outta5 (the area's a lil sketchy) I was satisfied & might patronize them again & try the bbq. We'll see... read more

I just left there order chicken and ribs and some thighs on the side I got spaghetti and Mac and ordered a cheeseburger cashier has a bad attitude and he has dreads and I just spent my money and didn't even get my cheeseburger that I ordered and whole time cashier got a nasty attitude and was throwing my food at me and my friend and didn't even give my receipt I just spent all this money and yall forget the main thing I wanted. Maybe he shouldn't be cashier sorry it's a bad Monday but I been coming here a while never had these problems read more

Decent soul food the fish and chicken was good. But the chicken strips were super dry I could have went without them

I come for the chicken! The macaroni is bomb too. The line is sometimes a slow wait, ordering for pickup does not ensure a faster process because no matter who you are they don't drop the food in the fryer til you get there read more

First time at Dixon's not good chicken not done, green too salty, spaghetti bland. Spent $54.00 in the hood EXCEPTED WAY BETTER FOOD GOOD LUCK CHUCK read more

Dixon's is very affordable...I'm surprised their prices are what they are. Upon entry, there were only a few people ahead of me. The service was good and the atmosphere as well. I ordered the 3pc Red Snapper which included fries and two pieces of white bread (I didn't eat the bread). The fish is seasoned and fried just right. read more

We walked in and was pleasantly greeted! It smelled amazing. Mrs. Dixon came out greeted us and made a few suggestions. I got sole and wings, greens and Mac n cheese! It made me lick my fingers! I had plenty of tarter sauce, hot sauce and ketchup. Some places are so cheap and give you the bare minimum! Not here I had left overs. My daughter got fish and oysters, Spaghetti and greens. She said if she worked there she would be so so so fat because the food was so delicious. Not to mention we got to hickey punch and it was so cold Quinn start Thursday we usually get two or three cans of peas in the one tiki punch actually worked for us we we just got one each. Thanks Dixon keep up the great work we will be there read more

But i grew up in a hood!!! lol so I didn't feel outta place but if you didn't you may not wanna come here,the food was ok the wings were crispy and cooked through, the catfish was crispy as well but could have used more seasoning the fries were the best thing to eat they had seasoned salt and were tasty the portions were ok seen a lot of people actually in this place, the wait wasn't too long the girl at the register was kind it wasn't a bad spot but have had better. read more

The food was fair. I did enjoy the fried chicken. The beans and rice wasn't that great seemed a little stale. The fried rib was OK. The breakfast was spot on. I enjoyed that. The service was fine just expect to wait about 20 to 25 minutes and establishment was clean and well kept. And parking was fine. It wasn't too busy or crazy. read more

You really can't beat that delicious af 7.99 fish sandwich combo. Everything comes fresh and hot. It's such a good deal, like fast food prices for higher quality food. Loved that the sandwich came with two pieces of fried fish on it. They really don't skimp. read more

Dixon's are the best and is very affordable. Excellent fish, ribs, chicken, and oysters. I love the food and Dixon family.

Terrible customer service!! Manager is very unprofessional & judgemental towards local customers. They forgot my MOTHERS sweet potatoes recently & tried to make it like she lied about them not putting it in the bag. She called the manager, he lied & said he wasn't the manager until my mom said who she was. Asking everybody in the background if they forgot the sweet potatoes like as if my mom was lying about that !! Weird !! we live near there so I guess it made him feel like he "knows" my mom due to her coming there often with my brother but he doesn't know her, at all. We all in the hood but judging a book by its cover is crazy!! This is why we can't even support our own people these days !! Very unprofessional & tacky af !! read more

I recommend Dixon's Catering over and over again! The variety of items on their menu is incredible and the food is so delicious! The service they provide is above excellent and you will always be 100% satisfied! Depending on the location of your event, the ambiance is created to match your desire! Whether catering a large or smaller event, you won't be disappointed! read more

Why a business would close every day JUST BEFORE DINNER is absurd to me, I can't understand it. I can see 9pm but just before people get off work hungry and feel like cooking. Not to mention weekends, it's truly unbelievable. I love Dixons but my reg work hours don't allow me to patronize the restaurant. read more

The other day, I was cruising thru deep East Oakland and happen to pass Dixon's at 90th Ave x International. I ordered a "3-Way Combo" and a "Fried Ribs & Party Wings." The 3-Way Combo: You pick 3 items and a side. I went with chicken, prawns and fish. My side was potato salad. How was it? The fried chicken was okay, it wasn't freshly cooked. But it was seasoned just right. It's not overly salty like KKC (Krispy Krunchy chicken). The prawns were plump and juicy, with a nice flavor. But the fried fish was very good. It was cooked fresh. BTW, I had to wait 20 mins for my order, and I was told nicely that they had to fry the fish. That fish was fresh, flaky and moist. The flavor was delicate, but the crispy crust made is worth the wait! Fried Ribs & Wings: The Party Wings were pretty good size, and nicely seasoned. But the fried ribs were delicious! I don't think I have ever eaten fried ribs. I was afraid that they would be dry and overcooked. Very impressed.....you bite into this meaty sparerib and it's juicy and fatty. The meat is tender and nicely seasoned. Service: staff were friendly and respectful. Dixon's is listed on DoorDash. If you're not familiar with "deep" East Oakland, maybe you should have your food delivered. Just a suggestion. Support Local Business! read more

This is a classic hood spot. It's no frills, takeout. Fish, chicken shrimp spot. Frozen seasoned fries and they also have several side options. The food is decently priced for the neighborhood and the portions are average. I personally like to order the fish sandwich combo which is about 8.75 with fries and a drink. The fish/shrimp is fried in a classic Louisiana fish fry mix, everything is cooked to order. The chicken is decent also. Just very basic flavors but good enough to eat, I would say better than a local fast food spot. Call before you order so that you can just go pick it up. read more

I am so disappointed. I ordered barbecue the two-way and beside the food being cold I got two little ribs and a whole bunch of links that were not barbecued at all. I remember coming to this restaurant before and it wasn't like this. They're slowly going downhill and I think I'm going to take my business elsewhere from now on. Maybe the owner need to do a little quality control because it should've never happened. I waited 20 minutes to have cold food and be disappointed. I will not recommend this place to anybody if you want barbecue. read more

Check your bag before you leave. I was so that I had ketchup and hot sauce in the bag and there was none. I ordered greens when I got home. The greens were not in the bag. No cocktail sauce. I drove 20 minutes to get there to pick up my meal and when I got home, it wasn't complete read more

It is definitely worth trying out Dixon's if you are a fan of fried chicken, great deals or both. It is a no frills dine in or more popular take out spot. They have everything including Chicken, ribs, fish, fries, and all the sides. They also serve breakfast and dessert. Today I tried the Fried chicken sandwich (that was just ok ) and the half fried chicken and fries. The real winner is the Fried chicken and fries which came out to $5. It's an incredible amount of food for the price. And although I have had more flavorful chicken, it came out freshly cooked and piping hot. For those looking to get full for $5 and eat a quality meal, its hard to beat Dixon's. I posted a video review on Tik Tok as well as Youtube Shorts, if you are interested in learning about this and other food places worth tryin in the bay area, check it out by searching for Mostly Chiken. read more

This place is screwed up. I ordered on line and I was notified it was ready but I had to stand in line behind everyone ordering. No way to just pick up food that was prepaid. What a mess. They called grub hub so I went over and it was my order. The fried chicken was slightly spicy. The 8 pieces were 2 thighs and 2 drums a breast and 3 small wings. I had the hush puppies which were the size of small brussel sprouts but tasted okay. The snapper dinner comes with 8 smallish pieces. My wife said they were dried out. She liked the greens and fries. The food was a solid 3 stars but the signage and online pick up were 1 star. read more
