Don't Pass the Salt – Maybe my hopes were too high for this place. My wife and I stopped in for lunch and she had the jambalaya, served with red beans and sausage, which consisted of a scoop of jambalaya over a big plate of red beans and two large sausages - twenty-two dollars. Although it was certainly authentic cajun/creole food, it was very salty, which maybe goes with the territory, I'm not exactly sure. But for that price I'm thinking it could have been more on the jambalaya/shrimp/cajun spices,etc, and less on the salt... read more

Creole Harold & Belle's has been in Los Angeles for many years now. They serve up delicious creole foods. I make really good red beans and rice. Yet it's always a treat to eat them here. My favorite meal is their oyster loaf. They must do something special because I've never had one better. The prices are a little high.

Good Food, Good Service Waiter but bad food service. We were a party of 18, I ordered the CatFish Dinner with Fries, I was the frist to order.. My friend seated next to me ordered a Comb. Plate.. Everyone got their food but me, My friend got the wrong order (CatFish with Coldslaw) after 15mins it was taken away and her Comb. plate was given to her. My plate came with out the fries and cold fish, it was the plate my friend had with the cold slaw gone, but the mark of the bowl still on the lettuce. This is a place that I have ... read more

Great food, great service – I LOVE this restaurant!! Just returned on Sunday afternoon. I had no complaints about the service, our waitress was friendly and attentive and refilled our soft drinks when empty. The Southern fried chicken is the very best I've ever had--a half bird with thick, flavorful breading and juicy meat. YUM. Meals are served with a green salad (or clam chowder), cole slaw, french fries (or another choice), corn on the cob, and warm buttery garlic bread. You won't go hungry! It's the friendliest place aro... read more

Great Food, Very Authentic, but VERY SLOW SERVICE – The food was very authentic but our server was slower than molasses. We were visiting Las Vegas for the weekend and decided to drive to LA just to try this restaurant. I was satisfied until I saw that the server maybe came by one time without having us flag her down. Every time we needed a water refill or requested another soda we had to flag her down. You would think that when it came time to pay the bill, she would have been "Johnny on the spot", nope. My husband had to g... read more

Poor Service, Food Quality has definitely changed – I took my mom to Harold & Belle's for her birthday. I have been here several times and usually love the food. This day the clam chowder tasted like cream of mushroom soup with a few clams dropped in. The jambalaya was horrible but the catfish was good. I pretty much could have fried fish at home though and opened up a box of Zatarin's for more flavorful Jambalaya. We all agreed that the quality of the food seems to have decreased. There was only one server in the restaurant... read more

Harold & Belle's – I went there on Tuesday 5/13/08. The food was good and plentiful. Not my first time. A bit pricey for where it is located. The parking or shall i say no parking is less than desired. Three of us visited the restaurant. We took a visitor from another state. He like the chicken wing dinner but not the corn on the cob or the mashed potatoes, The other party found nothing special about the cajun spices. I liked my chicken and red & rice.

Good Food I have been to this restaurant once and wasnt overly impressed. Everyone talks about the huge servings which is great. But what I look for first is customer service and this restaurant is lacking it in that regard.

Delicious! This creole restaurant has some real good southern food. The bread is outstanding and the portions are huge. I usually get the shrimp po boy open faced which is a little extra but worht it. A bit pricey and the service is slow.
