Chef Paul's Cafe is one of Fresno's best kept secrets. Specializing in mouth watering soul-food, Chef Paul's is famous for his shrimp & grits and crispy chicken & waffles.

 

Initially a successful catering business, Chef Paul opened the restaurant after someone bet him $1,000 that he couldn't keep the restaurant afloat in Chinatown.

 

To this date Chef Paul's  Cafe is one of the most successful businesses in Fresno drawing in celebrities such as Tyra Banks & Joe Rogan. In 2019 this Fresno gem even made Buzzfeed's Top 30 black owned restaurants list.
