Beola's Chicken & Waffles

We ate so much 😵‍💫 Everything was so good. Tried chicken & waffle. This waffle 🧇 is some of the best, especially if you like cinnamon 😋 the chicken was HOT, and juicy. Ox tails, mac n cheese, potato salad, pork chops and corn bread were delicious. I just didn't try my son's greens but he loved them. Were super excited to return! Thank you for your cooking!

chicken and waffles I ever had in my life!
Accidentally stumbled upon this place on our way to big bear and what a hidden Gem, everything's home made, grandmas recipe, grandson cooking in the kitchen. The owner was such a sweet generous guy.
The service was definitely top tier. I will forever crave these homemade cinnamon waffles and the perfectly seasoned and breaded chicken. Thank you Troy and your families recipes for fueling our journey and our souls!

Having recently relocated from Atlanta, GA—where soul food is deeply rooted in tradition and flavor—I was excited to explore local options here in California. During my lunch break, I searched for nearby soul food restaurants and came across Beola’s. Willing to drive 20 minutes for a taste of home, I arrived with high hopes.

I ordered the catfish, mac and cheese, and collard greens. Unfortunately, the meal did not meet my expectations. The mac and cheese and collards lacked seasoning and depth of flavor, and the catfish was under-seasoned and not fried to the crispness I’m accustomed to. While I appreciate the effort, the execution fell short of the rich, bold flavors typically associated with Southern soul food.

I also asked the cashier—who mentioned his father now owns the restaurant—if I could sample the Kool-Aid, and was politely declined. He noted that “the West is different,” which I understand, but it added to my overall disappointment, especially after spending $30 on a meal that didn’t deliver the authenticity I was hoping for.

This review is not meant to discourage others, but to offer honest feedback. With some adjustments in seasoning and preparation, Beola’s has the potential to better reflect the soulful culinary traditions it aims to represent.

Dined at Beol’s Chicken &Waffles today. The food was off the chain. Ordered the catfish and shrimp dinner with greens. The fish was cooked spot on and the greens and macaroni and cheese were delicious. If you want a right on meal check it out. You won’t be disappointed.

The food was DELICIOUS. I had the fried shrimp with the collard greens while I also tried my friend's cornbread and it was so flavorful! To top it off, I had a mini butter toffee cake warmed up and it was so soft and moist!

It was quiet when I was there but the atmosphere was inviting and peaceful if you need to take some time to relax and enjoy some good food. I need to find time to come back!❤️

It was my first time ordering food from there, and it was good. I liked the chicken and waffles. The waffles were fluffy and tasty with a nice touch of powdered sugar and a nice touch. Then, the chicken has a good flavor to it, but in my opinion, it could use a little more flavor. But other than that, the chicken is nice, moist, juicy, and has good breading to it.

Great service and food

My wife and I finally stopped in at Beola's after multiple Vet visits down the street for the pup. So glad we did. While in town we have been trying multiple places in the area while our pup was undergoing multiple treatments. We ordered the chicken and waffles and OMG! We have never had such a good flavorful waffle. The chicken was Moist and tender. Also ordered a side of Mac and cheese 🤤 🤤 still thinking about that cheesy bowl of Mac! Can't wait to go back.

The food is great. The hostess/cashier Lori is the most polite, helpful, caring person that I have met in a restaurant. I am only giving this restaurant a 4 rating because of its small size.

This place is a hidden gem! Troy and Alex made us feel at home and the food was amazing. We'll be back.
