Fixins Soul Kitchen $

★ 4.5 · BBQ · 3428 3rd Ave, Sacramento, CA 95817

Kevin Johnson's polished Oak Park soul-food room, all leather booths and gospel-brunch energy. Fried chicken, fall-off-the-bone ribs, and mac and cheese people swear is the best they've had.

Hours: Sun 9am–9pm · Mon 11am–9pm · Tue 11am–9pm · Wed 11am–9pm · Thu 11am–9pm · Fri 11am–9pm · Sat 9am–9pm

Bear West BBQ & Soul Food $

★ 4.6 · BBQ · 9011 Folsom Blvd, Sacramento, CA 95826

A hidden gem slinging St. Louis-style BBQ and soul sides — hot links, tri-tip, greens, and a banana pudding worth saving room for. It's a short drive east of the core but the ratings earn it.

Hours: Sun 11am–7pm · Mon closed · Tue closed · Wed 11am–8pm · Thu 11am–8pm · Fri 11am–8pm · Sat 11am–8pm
