    Oxtails with yams and greens!!
    John R.

    First visit to brick/mortar location. First time ever eating oxtails. Friendly service, owner came over to see what I thought of the oxtails and sides. Oxtails are very tender. Nice gravy in the rice. Good beef flavor on the oxtails. I ordered yams and greens as my 3 sides. Both are very tasty. 12 tables inside. Comfortable with music playing. I see some other things on the menu I will come back and try. Bring your appetite, no skipping on portion sizes.

    If you want some real food. Home cooked real food with real ingredients like you will cook at home then stop by this establishment. It's very old school a little worn inside but whoever's in the kitchen will make up for it with flavor and their good hospitality. This is a great addition to Vallejo and they've been in Vallejo just as many years as I have so we're both newbies to some degree but I'm no newbie when it comes to good food and because my family is from down south and I know what I cook at home I can recognize the real when I taste it. Thank you for Stirring them pots the right way. I had a plate with catfish and oysters fried a side of fried okra and some cabbage. My lunch date had the oxtail plate which comes with rice and gravy and a two other side dishes so plenty of food. We both brought food home. My daughter walked in from school (met me there rather I should say) and ordered the chicken and waffles and she said it was really good as well. Hit Noonies up for some good food. And if you looking for nostalgia they serving up Kool-Aid go get you some

    Fried chicken dinner chicken tasted like flour no seasoning

    First timer: Food selection: Fried chicken yams, macaroni & cheese, meatloaf, dinner with corn and cabbage, bits and grits corn bread Fried chicken: tasted too much like flour not seasoned Grits too salty & clumpy Mac and cheese was decent Yams ok good flavor but half whole and some mushy Meatloaf not good it was like a clump of meat and not enough breadcrumbs or sauce the gravy was dry no flavor with the rice Cabbage had a weird taste didn't care for it Corn : decent it's hard to mess that up cornbread dry no flavor tasted old Service: defiantly need help I waited over an hour for my food which was way to long! Conclusion : upon coming here I expected the food to be good judging from the reviews but it just wasn't it especially for the price point of 65$ the food wasn't what I expected at all!! I probably won't return but at least I can say I Gave it a try ; hopefully they fix that batter and meatloaf and hire help!!

    4 Chicken & 2 sides

    Had to try the breakfast, happy I did just as delicious as lunch/dinner will be back!

    $5 Dolla Holla. Two pieces of chicken and a slide of bread.

    Shrimp Po' Boy - Packed with flavor and dripping with that southern comfort flair. Every bite was seasoned to perfection and had me nodding "yes" with every chew. 2-Piece Fried Chicken Meal - Only $5?! In today's world, that's a deal you just can't pass up. Crispy, juicy, and seasoned just right. Pure happiness on a plate without breaking the bank. Meatloaf Dinner - Hearty, tender, and smothered in gravy that tastes like home. This dish feels like it came straight out of grandma's kitchen. Warm, comforting, and exactly what soul food is supposed to be. Great food, friendly vibes, and prices that remind you good deals still exist. Definitely a spot worth coming back to again and again!

    Smothered Meatloaf w/buttered corn and black eyed peas
    Vinny C.

    Checked this place out earlier today and was more than satisfied! I ordered the smothered meatloaf plate with black eyed peas, buttered corn, corn bread, and a piece of fried basa. Had the lemon blueberry pound cake for dessert. The food tasted like true down home cooking. With that, the customer service was above and beyond. The ambiance of the place is on point as well. All in all, I'll definitely be back.

    Proof of the receipt and proof how the good came

    The woman had excellent customer service but she left for her break. Food was average. Specifically went for smoothed chicken and only got fried...

    Me and my family stumbled upon this gem while headed back home from Napa. They accommodated us immediately and the service was excellent. Now for the food omg!!! It reminded me of a nicely home cooked soul food meal that my grandmother use to make. The oxtails, Mac and cheese, cabbage, greens, chicken, yams, and oysters were amazing oh and the portion sizes were perfect I highly recommend and will definitely be back. Noonie's just gained a lifetime customer.

    Pork Porkchop Breakfast
    Andrew T.

    Woke up on an easy Saturday morning and decided on Noonie's for a hearty, savory breakfast. We came in and they were already playing some good smooth music. We put our order in and the staff was warm and welcoming. The food was delicious. Not to take away from the rest of the food but one of my highlights was the hash. It's something about when the simple things are done perfectly. I ordered the chicken and waffles. The waffle had a good fluff to it and topped with a really tasty butter. The chicken was crisp and juicy and seasoned to go well alongside the waffle. My wife got the pork chops, which came out exactly as she wanted it. She's the type that usually needs hot sauce with her breakfast, but the pork chops were done so well that she didn't feel the need for it. Thank you Noonie's for the warm vibes with great food.

    French Fries. Seasoned well. My students loved them!
    Andrea D.

    It's been a while since I've ordered from Noonie's so I ordered a meal to go. I really wanted the smothered oxtails with gravy and they delivered! Absolutely tender and so well seasoned. I got the meal with French Fries and hushpuppies and both were delicious. My students really loved the fries! The cornbread was also nice. I wasn't a big fan of the peach cobbler but it was a sweet treat. I just didn't care for the crust/bread. The wait was really reasonable for the afternoon and the service was quick.

    Red Snapper, Basa, yams and cabbage
    Mark L.

    Decided to give this place a try as I'd been looking for a soul food place to support locally. Tried the fried fish dinner and was blown away by the amount of food that was served as well as the flavor. I chose the Bass and Red Snapper with cabbage and yams for the sides. Everything was fresh and actually needed to take the last piece of Bass to go. This is now going to be on my regular stops as they also have a fried Oysters dinner .... Yep. Check them out soon.

    Oxtails dinner with cabbage and macaroni salad
    Kerry C.

    The service was prompt and polite. This was our first time here and we will be coming back. I had the oxtails dinner and the meat was tender and flavorful. My wife had the meatloaf which was juicy and tasty. Our server was accommodating and attentive.

    Noonie's place is OK. Felt a bit dirty and food was fine. Would recommend for takeout but not as a sit-down destination.

    Hi Allison our food truck will be at the Benicia Juneteenth on Sunday, June 19th from 11am to 5pm @ 1150 First Street, Benicia.

    Are you open? The most recent post said you were closed 4 months ago?

    Hello. I am very interested in becoming a new customer but i also have a question. I was wondering if you can put a picture of the outside of your restaurant so i could get a good imagination of where you are located?

    Sure thing. The outside of our deli/bakery has been uploaded on Yelp. We’re located inside of the Georgia Street Plaza. Hope to see you soon!

    Brunch with friends is always enjoyable. This time we met at Joy of Eating cafe. The location of…read morethe cafe is easy to miss even though it's located on the street. There is a dedicated parking lot, tight but can hold a decent amount of cars. There is street parking as well, not metered - that is where I parked. The hostess was extremely friendly and attentive, checking in on us several times after ordering to notify of the food's ETA as well as refilling drinks and seeing if we needed anything. The dining area has approximately ten booths in total and became quite crowded around 12:30p. Our meals arrived at different times, items to eat meal arrived sparsely as well. We ordered around 11:30a, there were two other parties present. We were able to order based on our dietary needs/wants as the menu offered quite a diverse array. The crab omelette (known as The California Omelette on the menu) is 1/4 lb of fresh crab served either hot or cold enclosed in three eggs along with avocado and Monterey Jack cheese. For $26.35 the omelette left much to be desired, especially in flavor and seasoning. Nothing complimented or even enhanced the presence of the crab in any way. The remaining party at the table said they enjoy their meal - including a blueberry waffle, toast and eggs with bacon and a double cheeseburger with fries. If you are looking for an inexpensive place to gather, this cafe is certainly an option to consider. It was easy to speak and hear each other with ample privacy and not a lot of traffic - if any.

Pranati greeted us upon entering and cleaned our chosen table away from the door. Another lady was right on her heels making sure we had been helped. She took our order quickly and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time. The portion sizes are good. My vallejo omelet was very meaty. I wish the veggies were cooked a little less but they were still delicious. The hotlink was good quality. The house made bread was amazing as toast and French toast. The bacon looks thin but it was perfectly cooked and meaty. THOSE POTATOES! The balance of cooked with crispy bits - I would go back just to order them by themselves with a little cheddar cheese. It's small but appears to be adequate for the clientele and many appeared to be regulars. Its an older place but clean. Will definitely keep it on the vallejo brunch list.
