Wow, what can I say?! The food is amazing! Cooked with heart and soul, just like grandma did! Oxtails may be pricey, but totally worth it! Hubby had the chops, super crispy and juicy. Coming back to try every single item on the menu! Help Alex to keep to this place going, Y'all. Not many soul food places in our hood.... Peace read more

Stop by to try their chicken & waffles and was not disappointed. The waffles tasted to me like a cinnamon roll flavor, was fluffy and chicken tenders were seasoned perfectly. Also ordered Mac n cheese and sweet tea. Both were good. Has a few fish options and oxtail on the menu. Will be back read more

The food and service is exceptional! The prices are great for a soul food restaurant with everything being made from scratch!!

Yes!!! On the chops, and the service. Good job. I loved the atmosphere and Food. Would say go and enjoy and by the pie whole, and the banana pudding to. read more

I ordered from Beola's Catering menu for a small event I was having and the experience was wonderful. Catering Manager Troy was extremely helpful and made the process very easy. On the day of the event all of the food was nicely packaged and ready for pick up on time. The food was absolutely delicious! Everyone helped themselves to seconds and couldn't stop raving about how good the food was. I will definitely be visiting Beola's again. read more

As a pescatarian, I am very picky about my seafood. I had the opportunity to try the catfish, and omg...it was fire. I look forward to trying other items on the menu...and the hospitality was a 5 star!!!! read more

The service was great and the food was even better. It was nice and clean. Loved the music also.

The food was good. The crispiness of the chicken melted in your mouth. The Mac n cheese was cheesy, gooey and flavorful. However, in this economy, the prices were high and portions were small. I would come back when I saved enough money. read more

My girlfriend and I have been coming here for a couple of months and it's delicious! Different style of waffle than I'm used to...it's thin and crispy, but quite tasty. The fried chicken is probably some of the best tasting fried chicken I've had, and their brisket is quite yummy too (especially on fries). The owners are very sweet and genuine people that care a lot about your experience and satisfaction, while making sure you have everything you want and need. There are only about 4 - 6 tables, but inside feels cozy and they're always playing great music (from 50s - 70s mostly). They make their own Kool-aid too (blue and red)! Highly recommend! read more

For some reason, we thought this establishment would have been similar to Roscoe's House of Chicken and Waffles, but we couldn't have been more wrong. We saw the menu and pictures and noticed the chickens were chicken tenders rather than legs/thighs/drumsticks. We gave this place a try, nonetheless. Waffles were really thin and crispy. Chicken sandwich reminds me of what we got when we were in elementary school - really small with store bought buns. Salmon was good but for it's price and portion, total highway robbery. Chicken wings? Dry and overcooked. Wingstop is much better. The staff were really personable and friendly. However, with what we paid and what we got, we were won't be coming back. read more

Stopped by this hidden charm this morning and it did not disappoint. If there were more stars to give, I would. We ordered their chicken and waffles and all three of us agreed that it was 5/5. Fun fact: they make their own butter, and condiments! In addition to the chicken and waffles we ordered a side of Mac N Cheese and Potato salad and both were so good. Nothing beats an authentic home made taste in comparison to other places that serve processed reheated food. We will definitely be back and will be ordering from their catering menu for the holidays. Thank you Beola's for your hospitality today. read more

Glad to see this business is back open and running. Delicious, authentic, southern cooking. The catfish is full of flavor and fried just right. Pork chops are just as flavorful and so tender you can eat with just a fork. The Peach Cobbler! Tons of crust, moist, tender peaches, Sweet, but not too sweet, just YUM!!!. Good Stuff. This business definitely deserves your support. read more

Location & Ambiance / Located in a shopping plaza. It's on the right side where coldstone's and Wendy's is at. The place is quite small but still offers dine in! I wouldn't necessarily recommend a huge group but small groups could work! The place feels quite homey and definitely a mom and pop shop feel Food / Hands down one of the best southern food I ever had! They make everything fresh to order so do expect a bit of a wait but lemme tell you it is WORTH IT. I ordered the chicken and waffles which I 10/10 recommend everyone do the same here. Yes, it's chicken tenders but they are hand breaded chicken tenders that are delicious and well seasoned. The waffle on the other hand is mind blowing for me - so crisp and light dusted with powdered sugar that pairs so well with their softened butter and syrup! The right amount of sweetness for a sweet and savory dish! I also ordered their premium sides which is $6.50 each which is a bit steep in my opinion for the portion you get - but it is again, all homemade. I got the Mac n cheese which was so creamy and cheesy! Noodles were not over cooked which I appreciate cause some places do overdo it with the noodles. Collard greens were cooked just right with the smoked Turkey bits. I paired my meal with one of their kool aid options (cherry) which made this meal a 9/10 for me. Service / 10/10! The lady was so nice and kind. She really had a positive hospitality vibe and I would come here again to bring my friends!! Overall, a solid southern food place to try out! It's a hidden gem out in the area so I hope more people find this hidden treasure soon! They deserve all the great business for serving delicious food! read more

If you love supporting local family owned business then Beola's does not disappoint. The service is great and the food is absolutely delicious! We got the smothered pork chops, chicken and waffles, collard greens and Mac and cheese. Everything was served hot and tasted amazing! We will definitely be back. read more

Best chicken & waffles I've ever had. The chicken was juicy and had a perfect amount of seasoning. The waffles were also light and fluffy with a light amount of powdered sugar as to not be too sweet. Will definitely be back and recommend to others read more

This establishment is a cut above any soul food restaurant that I have seen in a long time. Have me think about Big Bertha's from Los Angeles. Excellent customer service , not mention the food was totally exquisite. I felt like I was dining on Chopped!!! If there was anything higher than a 100 in ratings, they definitely deserve it. I highly recommend Beola's if you're looking for that distinguished down south taste! read more

I had high expectations and this just wasn't the it at all. Just look at the pics. And I assumed it was gonna hit that southern comfort food craving. Big miss. And I'm originally from Georgia so I know food read more

Holy moly what a find! My son and I went in today and had the best home cooked soul food ever! We had the chicken and waffle, potato salad, Mac and cheese and a piece of the most wonderful sweet potato pie. Everything was delicious and fresh and tasted like someone's grandmas recipe that they grew up with. The owner Troy was absolutely lovely and the portions are hearty! I can't wait to go back and have them cater my next event! Give it a try, you won't be sorry! read more

The service the owner nicest guy ever made sure we were well taken care of amazing. Food was delicious seasoned perfectly. We went for my husband birthday and my daughter is blessing us with a new baby. We shared different food we ordered all generous portions!!The red snapper season perfect. Chicken and waffles amazing. My son's brisket tender and the Mac n cheese son said best he ever had and he's a picky eater. Highly recommend it and sweet tea my son and husband loved it. Will be back soon for sure.

Catfish, greens, were fantastic. Oxtail had a delicious creole flavor served with steamed seasoned rice. We will be back to try other items on the menu. read more

I checked this place out after hiking. I was really hungry being from Louisiana I was happy to see this place (it's hard to find soul food in SoCal) and it did not disappoint. I had the chicken and waffles, red beans and rice, banana pudding, and lemonade. The food was delicious, all made in house, drinks, too. The service was amazing, and the facility was very clean! read more

This is nothing close to southern cooking. Most of the food I ate was store bought with added seasoning. I ordered the waffle, which I thought was ok. The buffalo party wings definitely came out of a frozen bag, the mac and cheese isn't made with real melting cheese and was very salty, the potato salad was orange and had the consistency of store bought potato salad and they added seasonings that made it taste horrible, the corn bread could have been Marie Callendar's out of the bag mixed with water, and the desserts are definitely not made by a person. If you want someone to prepare your store bought items at triple the price, this is the place to go. read more

Foods was amazing. We ordered chicken and waffles, oxtail over rice, jambalaya, Mac n cheese, corn bread, sausage with rice, and yes, we are a foody and love food My take is this. This is by far one of the best southern food in socal.... read more

I came ready to eat real good.... I ordered the fried pork chops and my friend ordered the catfish we both had the rice and gravy as our sides. Pork chops and catfish was good!! read more

This waffle is awesome! I already ate somewhere else but on my way home I stopped by just to get the waffle for my dessert!

Awesome service. The Chicken and Waffles was amazing. Great flavor and cooked fresh to order. The peach cobbler was one of the best I have ever had. Definitely will be back. read more

Great first visit. Awesome collard greens and very crispy and lightly coated ultra moist catfish. I cannot wait to try the oxtail dinner and the other fish offerings. I'm not a chicken and waffles guy but they have plenty of other choices. Very friendly guy working the counter who was great and attentive to all parties in the restaurant. Only two complaints. It is a little pricey for being served in to go containers and the seating is limited making it heavily reliant on take out when busy. I wish the space was larger with real plates and silverware but it appears this is the new normal. read more

Best Catfish my Son in Law loves it! He gets it every year! I highly recommend Beola's

Hubby and I wanted to try some place new. I had a taste for waffles and he wanted brisket so we decided to try Beolas. He got the brisket fries, said they were pretty tasty but would've been better if they had a smoke taste/flavor like real bbq but gave them credit for tenderness I had the catfish, it came out nice and hot but the taste...well I've had much better. The fries were really good. The waffle was room temperature...like seriously!? Didn't even melt the whipped butter Super disappointing because it's called Beola's chicken and waffles. For us to be the only ones in the restaurant, everything especially the waffle should've came out hot! At least the service provided by the young man at the register was exceptional! Don't think we'll be back as much as I really wanted to like this place. read more

No offense- food was GOOD, not really amazing just good. But the prices are insane for Upland! We spent way too much for two/ three plates of fried chicken and sides. Definitely don't come here on a budget or for a huge portion. read more

Been wanting to try this place for a minute. Quality flavor, juicy, perfect temperature, and the right crispy . read more
