We love it here in California, but we have to admit that other regions of the U.S. have some fantastic cuisine. Southern food is one of those things that can be hard to find done well all the way out on the West Coast, but it’s oh-so-delicious when you do! Sarom’s Southern Kitchen is one of those restaurants that nails Southern flavors and dishes, like Chicken and Waffles, BBQ, and more. If you love Southern food, you simply have to check it out!
Opened by Cambodian cook and businesswoman Sarom Doeuk in 2015, Sarom’s Southern Kitchen has quickly become a favorite among Sacramento locals for its authentic take on classic Southern dishes.

Born with a love for cooking, Sarom owned several donut shops before deciding to shift to Southern cuisine. Today, Sarom’s Southern Kitchen is managed by Sarom, her sister, and her daughter - it’s a true family venture!

The restaurant itself is far from flashy and that’s because the food speaks for itself. With a focus on classic dishes from the South, visitors can enjoy iconic eats jambalaya, St. Louis spare ribs, and gumbo.

Sarom has many tasty specialties but the Chicken and Waffle may be one of the most popular. It’s not hard to see why. Two perfectly fluffy and buttery waffles served with a crispy deep-fried chicken breast or four fried chicken wings - so simple, yet so tasty!

The restaurant’s two locations are each open for breakfast and lunch. Steak and eggs, three-egg omelets, and breakfast sandwiches are just a few of the fantastic breakfast options that you’ll want to start your day with.

Of course, no Southern meal is complete without a slice of sweet potato pie at the end. Sarom’s pie is the absolute best. Other sweet selections include peach cobbler, carrot cake, chocolate peanut butter mini pie, red velvet cake, and sweet potato spice cake.
