Over thirty years of feeding people right

Dulan's on Crenshaw started with a family, a closed restaurant space, and a deep conviction that great food and genuine care for people are the same thing. More than thirty years later, that conviction still shows up in every plate.

What our guests are saying

We had an excellent experience at Dulan’s Soul Food on Crenshaw in Santa Ana, California. The owner personally came out to introduce himself and went out of his way to make sure our meal and overall experience were satisfactory. That level of hospitality really stood out to us.

Came here last night and had a wonderful experience! The owner came out to speak with us—he’s an older gentleman, super nice and sweet. Made sure we were comfortable and satisfied. The food was amazing! We had the soul food plate with mac & cheese, baked chicken and greens—cornbread so good.
