Beola's family owned business is the best soul food in the IE. Location: right off the 210 FWY Baseline exit. Located in Sycamore Hills Plaza with Union Bank and Whole Foods Market. Customer service was friendly and professional. There is plenty of room to sit down and enjoy your meal. The quality and taste of the food was delicious. I had Greens cooked with turkey, cornbread and fried snapper.

Chicken and waffles

The food has great house seasoning. Made fresh and warm to order. Service was great. Great place to be at, clean home like environment. The shrimp and wings had a home made flavor. Definitely coming again, I recommend. We had the chicken and waffles, shrimp, the wings with house seasoning. The service was pleasant and warming. Thank you we will be coming again

Let me say the service was A1. We were greeted once we walked in the door. They treated us like Rock Stars . The Catfish & Shrimp were seasoned with flavor and love! The Red Beans were a little spicy but I love spice. We will be back to. A True Hidden Gem in Upland.

Brisket and Mac and cheese
Twin H.

If you're looking for hefty portion size, I would recommend. However, if you're looking for flavor...... the Mac and cheese did not have flavor. The look and taste was like noodles was miffed in a very milky cheese sauce. Collard greens was half decent. The brisket was fatty, nor did it have a barbque smoke flavor. Definitely a no go for me. Customer service was good which is the reason for the stars. I feel like my $26 wasn't well spent. Mac and cheese went to the trash. I barely ate the collard greens. I ended up rinsing the sauce off the brisket, frying it and adding store bought barbque and putting between 2 slices of nature's own bread.

A little of everything.

We took a drive out to Beola's. It was not what I had my taste buds prepared for. Customer service was excellent, ambiance good. This is a store front setting, which was fine for the time of date we went. Had it been another day or time there may not have been anywhere to sit. The food was ok, I was not a big fan. My husband ate his. The waffles had too much cinnamon in the batter so all you taste when eating the waffle is cinnamon. The only thing I could tolerate was the red beans and rice. All the other food was not tasty. The seasoning was weird, I don't know, just didn't taste like the soul food I'm accustomed to. Whatever was going on with the seasoning my taste buds and stomach said no. Try it you might like it. Was not good to me. Thank you

Our meal - chicken & massive waffle(we split it), rice & beans, cornbread

Wow!! I've missed these home cooked meals for way too long! Wish I had tried this place before now. Beola is the creator of these delicious recipes and her grandson is carrying on her traditions. Can't thank him enough! We got chicken & waffles (of course my usual fave), red beans & rice, cornbread and sweet tea. Everything is very good portions. Chicken is hand breaded with so many wonderful spices that don't feel overly fried and moist meat. Waffle was big that we split it. Smothered it with their maple butter (YUM!) and barely used any maple syrup because the waffle batter had so much flavor and cinnamon which is my favorite. Waffle was so soft but not soggy it had lightly crisp edges. Rice & beans were so flavorful that you only get from a good home cooked meal. It has beef and pork links that give it so much flavor. Oh my heavens...they call it cornbread but I call it corncake because it was so fluffy,moist and not at all gritty. We were welcomed by the owner and he talked with us after we tasted to get our feedback. Great guy. Very hospitable. Pictures are attached to see our meal and the restaurant. There are 5 tables. They do catering too. They are located around the corner from Whole Foods, across from chipotle & Wendy's.

Plain chicken wings, Mac and cheese, greens, red beans + rice
Ali T.

I've been a fan of Beolas for years and today I was my first time going to location on Baseline Rd Troy, the owner, was extremely kind and politely shared everything I needed to know about the different items on their menu. I ended up going with the 6 piece wings with two sides and couldn't help but add a 3rd Despite choosing the plain chicken, the flavor was everything. Exactly what you want when eating fried chicken. Cooked to perfection and made fresh. Mac and cheese was delicious I am very picky with my greens and these are the best I've ever had. Red beans and rice was so flavorful They had nothing but great old school music hits playing and I was dancing the whole time I was enjoying my meal. So glad I finally stopped by and can't wait for their other location to reopen. Beolas is by far the best southern / soul food I've ever had.

I came here before grocery shopping and have been meaning to try this place. Thr place has a good amount of seating and outdoor seating. I got their daily special of chicken sandwich with fries ($9.99) It was seasoned nicely, it came with the choice of lettuce and sliced white onion. It was cooked thoroughly and the meat was juicy. The onions were too thick but it gave a nice texture. The fries were tossed in a seasoning and it was a good amount. The staff was nice and the place is clean. They do sell lottery and have a yelp check-in of a free drink of kool-aid.

Thanks for coming to town Beola's! I have passed by this place several times and today was the day we were dropping in. Happy we did. Red snapper, red beans and rice, Mac-n-cheese, brisket fries, accompanied by Kool-aid and lemonade. Bamm! Successful meal and satisfied customers. I was worried we wouldn't find seating but we did. They had some really good tunes playing while we ate. Nice and friendly staff as well.

Here is a picture of the douche bag that took out food from the table and dumped it in the trash, after we asked for a refund.

We went there for our first time, they guy at the counter was disgruntle and rude. One of the Waffle was not cooked properly and we asked for a refund on the waffle, he told us to fuck off and leave, he removed my food from the table as I was eating at this point we asked for a full refund and he got up to my husband's face and pushed him. Authorities were called and we will be pursuing this to the full extent of the law. PSA- food was terrible, waffles crumbled completely apart, they were hard which was weird as they crumbled into sand. The chicken was salty and over seasoned. No wonder there is not traffic at the restaurant. Wish I had photos to upload, he grabbed out food from the table and threw it in the trash and did not give us a refund! Don't bother coming here. Save your money. So many better places to chose from.

Chicken and waffles, Mac n cheese, cherry koolaid
Shianne G.

The lady at the front with the red hair was super sweet and super accommodating. Making sure we had extra sauce and everything. Now the food was so good, me and my friends ordered this: bbq brisket fried with cheese, fried catfish, chicken and waffles. Sides: rice and gravy , Mac n cheese, collard greens , red beans and rice. Everything was super hot and fresh , so I'm assuming they make it right when you order. The brisket had a bit too much fat for my liking but was delicious overall. Super clean inside and very homey. 10/10 would recommend and come back!

They split the one order. Portions are super generous!
Alejandra M.

Awesome! Better than Roscos! A great find! Generous portions, well seasoned and reasonably priced. The owner tends the restaurant and keeps it super clean! Chicken is crisp and tasty! Come see this hidden gem in north Claremont

Adonis, Sodany & Ashley were a warm welcoming family who pour their heart and souls into their masterpiece recipes. They came around to each guest checking in on them after their meal. So welcoming and friendly, good hearted people. The 16 hour smoked brisket has that perfect smoke ring with nice bark seasoning. Lemongrass beef skewers are a MUST! Whatever else you order add a skewer or three. The pulled pork was tender shreds of beautifully smoked meat. In the words of Jen the sides are perfect to balance all the richness. Pickled papaya & carrot salad with Cambodian style fried rice which has an unexpected delightful coconut cream to add another component twist to the dish. Everything we tried was awesome! By the end of the night they were sold out! I would definitely luv to try more of their menu whenever they're in town. Tap to pay available. Fun fact: Adonis started smoking meats at home and his son said dad you could sell this. Adonis tried it out and the business began to grow. Now he has been able to run this awesome pop up traveling to the people sharing his passion with every bite.

We arrived at 10:40am and it wasn't full yet but by the time we left the lunch crowd started coming…read morein. Food was really good. This was our first time here and would likely be back the next time we are EI.... Biscuits and gravy were delicious. Great customer service too. It's home cooked style food.

Okay, I want to make it clear that I am not her to frivolously review a neighborhood restaurant…read more Small businesses are the backbone of our country, specially important and black, woman and minority owned. So here's my good and not so good. Good: the service here is amazing, friendly attentive and I watched every dine in customer receive extraordinary care. The portion sizes are huge and the whole restaurant felt like you were in someone's own kitchen on a weekend morning with all of the right smells in the air for a great brunch. Here's the not so good: it took 4 minutes shy of an hour to get lunch for 2 (2 order of chicken tenders, side of red beans and rice and an order of hush puppies ) prepared. Although the booths were full, most of the tables had their food, so it didn't appear to be a lot of tickets stacked up. When my order was finally delivered, and I took the10 minute drive back home, I opened the bag to fund 3 brown paper bags, wet, soggy and soaking in grease. Because the food hadn't been allowed to cool a bit and it was placed in a plastic bag with no way to vent out steam, every item was soggy and falling apart. The fries were wet and soggy, the chicken had all of the dry coat falling off and most the seasoning was pulled off of the batter that was left because of the water and steam. Additionally, the red beans and rice were so wet, they were almost soup. One of the orders had potato salad as a side, but to received overcooked soggy fries instead. The hush puppies were way over cooked, they had passed the golden brown cook level and were a black brown color and were sort of flavorless and really soggy from the heat of the plastic bag. I'm sure that most of this could have been avoided if I hadn't placed a to go order. But I'm leaving this review so that when you order from this little gem, you consider dining in or asking for the foot with plenty of lead time so that they don't rush, improperly pack the food for transit (let it cool off a bit) and have the time to make sure the order is correct, and cooked to a standard that best represents the business. Pomona needs Day-Days as a locally owned, black owned soul food restaurant. Switching from plastic to paper bags and giving the food time to vent will go a long way with quality for the customer. In the end the food tasked good, I'm sure was prepared with love, but fell flat on the delivery. All of that said, patronize this restaurant!!!!
