Cassie's Soul Food Kitchen - Pomona

This place hits home so hard... And those waffles... Dang.... I can not believe how good they are even without syrup!! Oh, hidden gym... Ron C Seafood platter.... Get extra tartar sauce and hot sauce. You'll thank me later... Enjoy!!

This is definitely a little hole In the wall place in the seedy part of town on Holt St in Pomona. You'll pass right by it on the street if you don't know where it is. Let's start with the service. Our server was so gracious and sweet and very attentive. She gets 5 stars for her service. And that's where the 5 stars stops. I ordered smothered pork chops with rice n gravy, a side of sweet potatoes, and a side of Cajun cabbage. And a waffle on the side. The waffle was a good size Belgium style with a nice thickness to it. Not thin like Roscoes. The flavor was very good, but the texture was off. I like my waffles crispy on the outside and light and fluffy within. This waffle was soft as if it had been steamed. I do like that they give you a good dollop of butter that is not cold so it spreads easily. And the syrup was served warm. The batter on the pork chops was A . It was very crispy and flavorful with just the right amount of seasoning. I wish I had their recipe for batter but the pork chops taste like they were in the freezer and quickly defrosted. They were dry and tough to cut. The fat around the edges was good I'm glad they didn't cut that off. lol The rice was light and fluffy, but the gravy seemed like doctored up premade gravy. The kind you can buy in a can. I wasn't nasty but it wasn't great. The yams were ok. They didn't taste like they were canned. So I'll give them a plus for that. The Cajun cabbage would've been good because you could taste the Cajun seasonings but it was wayyy too salty. My friend ordered the turkey chops. He felt the same as I did about the freezer taste, the toughness, and the great batter. The greens were a little underwhelming. And we didn't find any meat whatsoever in the greens. No hamhocks, no smoked turkey, no nothing from the meat dept. I ordered red beans rice, with 3 chicken wings, and potato salad to go for my mom. So I didn't get a picture of it. But she said that the wings were delicious. The red beans rice was mixed together instead of the beans being served over the rice and they were kind of dry. They seemed like the Zatatan's red beans and rice out of the box. She liked the potato salad though. All in all, the food was just ok. Would I go back again? Yes but just to try breakfast. I'll pass on dinner.

Food was delicious! Atmosphere was inviting! Service was great, just missing 1 star because my party subbed out bread for waffles which should've been an upcharge but only a slight difference in price between the two. Instead, we were charged for a full meal(bread included although we didn't receive any), with a waffle on the side. Didn't notice til after we paid though. Would still return.

Been driving by this place for a while, but lack of parking detoured me. Decided to order takeout so I could just grab and go. Ordered the Fire Captain's Combo (wings, hot link, waffle, potatoes and egg) Jose's Combo (chicken, catfish, grits, waffle, and eggs). Food was hot and ready when I arrived. Staff was very friendly. Everything was still crispy and tasted great when I got home. Would definitely recommend.

Chicken and waffles never sounded appealing to me but my hubby wanted to try something different for breakfast. Wow am I glad we came to Day Days for my first chicken and waffle experience. The seasoning on this chicken will make you wanna slap yo ' mama , I 'm not kidding! I am officially a fan and today I took my Pop and his wife to try for their first time too! They loved it! Yes it 's in a sketchy part of town but hey, they say the rougher the neighborhood the better the food! We park on N Lorraine near the Arco and just cross the street. The establishment itself isn 't anything fancy but the food, chefs kiss!! My personal recommendation, and if you like wings, order Slim Da Mobsta, comes with about 5 or 6 flats/lil drumettes and all the sides. The 1/2 bird was good too (comes with a wing, drumstick, thigh and breast plus sides) good for 2 people and we ordered a side of potatoes. I want to mention the waffles and how crispy the outside was and soft and light on the inside, love!! Can 't wait to come back try their lunch and dinner options.
