The $15/person mandatory charge for the loud live music is ridiculous. At first, we were thinking…read morethey just play nice and classy music. Instead, they would blast the mixed music so loud that you practically had to yell out loud for a causal conversation with a person that sat next to you. The place is dark and makes it difficult to see the small fonts on the menu clearly. Thus, one of us ordered the lemonade and the waiter asked if he wanted the strawberry one. Not knowing they would charge a different price and extra for refill. This would be fine if the waiter at least informed him since this's our first visit. Honestly, the foods and services were OK but they are overpriced. We wanted to support this minority own restaurant but, at this restaurant, it's not worth it.

I'm really happy to see a seafood boil restaurant open nearby, and we stopped by to try it today…read more Overall, I'm not trying to leave a negative review--just sharing a few suggestions that I hope may help. First, the seafood was served extremely hot. Putting boiling-hot seafood directly into a plastic bag and immediately bringing it to the table made it difficult to eat, and it also raised some concerns about having food at such a high temperature in plastic. It may be better to let it rest for a minute or two before serving. This could also give the seafood more time to absorb the sauce and flavor. Second, the sauce felt very oily, but it didn't have enough of a rich, buttery flavor. The seasoning also seemed somewhat separated from the seafood instead of coating it well. Adjusting the oil-to-butter ratio and allowing the sauce to blend more thoroughly with the seafood could make it much more flavorful. I sincerely hope the restaurant will consider these suggestions. We're happy to have a new seafood boil option nearby and hope it continues to improve!

Once we confirmed the event was back on, I reached back out and she made everything seamless. The food was AMAZING. Literally everyone came up to me during the event to say how good it was. People were going back for seconds and asking where the food was from.

5/1/2026 Been so…read morelong since I've had a pan roast! I thought there weren't any more places that make pan roasts, but happy to have found one in Chino Hills! HOUSE PAN ROAST It tasted exactly what was expected. A creamy tomato soup consistency and flavor. Got level 2 or 3 for spice level. I wanted more of that creamy flavor, not spice. Any higher than 3 would be Tabasco level spice and up. Deliciously filled with shrimp, chopped scallops, small crab meat. I could taste the crab meat, which was all sitting at the bottom of the bowl. The scoop of jasmine rice with the creamy pan roast was comfort on another level. Got the small size, but it is enough for me. I do wish there were more shrimp and scallops and crab in the pan roast. I felt the scallops and crab were chopped too small and wished there was a bit more. But still I enjoyed the pan roast and would get it again. As an appetizer and accompaniment to the house pan roast, they bring a basket with three sliced breads and a side of butter. It's a light, soft bread with a bit of sour flavor. Didn't like it. I would have preferred dinner rolls. CUSTOMER SERVICE I arrived 1 hr before lunch closing time. It closes at 2:00pm and then re-opens for dinner at 5:00pm. But service was good! Only one server, but she checked back with everyone and all around better than most places I've been at recently. Lots of people came in 30-40 mins before closing time. Still, service was friendly and they weren't turned away. LOCATION At The Commons at Chino Hills. This is a large outdoor mall and have many parking spaces.

Hey Jackson, Instead…read moreof giving me an imaginary prize for being relentless, I would much rather appreciate your business taking accountability for the really poor service I had to experience in order to get a basic refund as a result of a mistake that was clearly from your restaurant. I can definitely be more upfront about my dietary needs moving forward when ordering, but even your employee admitted over the phone that chicken is not automatically part of the item that I ordered. If your staff wanted to add chicken to an item that should be seafood only, perhaps they should have asked if I was okay with that. After communicating with your employee about my concerns, I realized that the mistake on the food was secondary compared to the horrendous service I experienced when I shared my concerns. In your reply, you failed to mention anything regarding customer service that I mentioned, so let me say these facts again. I was hung up on several times over the phone, ignored multiple times when I showed up in person the next day, pressured to sign a claims release in order to get the refund, then was told I was an inconvenience to your business. Another fact is I lost my appetite after tasting your food yet was essentially called a liar when I came in the next day because I didn't appear sick to your employee. I cannot believe that is how your employee was allowed to treat a customer and I honestly hope you had a serious conversation with them. For the record, I was signed out of my main account for several months and did leave a review on a temporary account. Once I gained access to my main account, the review on my temporary account got deleted because that account got deleted. I operate on only one account and needed to re-write any reviews that got deleted. Looks like someone reported my review for your business, so I did revise it to better follow yelp's guidelines. Therefore, it is absolutely not an exact duplicate of the previous review. The real impact here is not only the loss of appetite, but also how I was treated after I raised concerns. It really was one of the most horrendous experience with restaurant staff. I will never again feel comfortable stepping inside your restaurant that is careless enough to scoop an item that was already made with chicken in it instead of making a fresh one with only seafood then try to pressure a customer to sign a claims release to protect yourselves. Nice try, but I'm not falling for that and neither should anyone else.

I used to come here all the time when my family lived nearby, so I was genuinely happy to see that they survived COVID and are still going strong. The layout inside is a little different now. There are no longer tables for dining in, just chairs near the entrance where you can wait for your order. They still have bench-style tables outside though. Street parking was easy to find, even easier than I remember, probably because the surrounding area is more deserted than it used to be. Most importantly, the fish was just as good as I remembered. My order took around 35 minutes - I completely forgot that you can call ahead, which is definitely the move here. I ate a few pieces fresh in the car, and they were SO hot and tender inside while still perfectly crunchy on the outside. The tartar sauce and vinegar paired great with everything. Highly recommend ordering extra tartar sauce! The prices honestly shocked me in the best way. It felt like I was looking at pre-2016 pricing. Between the flavor, quality, portion size, and overall value, Pomona Fish Market is still unbeatable. So happy I made my way back and found it every bit as good as I remembered.

You can feel the history there and but don't judge it on its aesthetics. It may look a little run down, but the food and service make up for it. As soon as you walk in, you are greeted with a warm welcome by the host. The menu was pretty easy to navigate but I had heard this place was known for their fried chicken. So of course I had to get the half bird. The chicken was juice and crispy. I loved that the batter was light but not oily. What really surprised me was the waffle. I normally don't like waffles but this waffle was AMAZING. Literally one of the best waffles I've ever had in my life. I just love that Day Day's felt like a home cooked meal rather than a gimmicky experience. I will note that they do not take card here. They do take cash and Zelle, so be prepared for that. Other than that, I had an amazing time.

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!!!!
