The food was amazing. I grew up in the south, and catfish is a huge comfort food for me. This was the best catfish I have had in California so far. The fish was a thick cut, fresh, and juicy. I got the black eyed peas and macaroni and cheese for sides. They were both delicious, packed with flavor. The hush puppies were soft and flavorful. They have a plate with catfish and chicken and waffles. I am definitely going to be trying that out. I wished I found this place sooner. Great food. The inside of the restaurant was nice and clean. In the heat of summer, they had it nice and cool inside. The service was good. The waitress answered all questions I had and was friendly as well. They are not cheap, but I never mind paying for a good meal. I think I might have found my new favorite restaurant. I highly recommend this place. I left completely satisfied.

I liked the place. The location is not a real good one on Holt in Pomona. At least 8 guys out front of the place and on side of the liquor store around the corner. The guys did not bother us, as they ain't and eventually moved on. Five minutes to get seated and another 10 minutes to order. Then another 15 minutes for the food to arrive. I had the hot links, cheese grits, eggs and toast. The food was good and tasty. They had like 4 hot sauces: Tabasco, red rooster, Crystals and one other. Wifey had the fried catfish with greens and black eyed peas. She liked her food a lot. The food was prepared well. They also have Kool Aid here, and you get free refills. The kool aid is $4.29 We had all of our food for about $44 and that was real good. Nadine, the waitress staff was detailed and observant.

Boyyyyyyyyyyyyy. This the spot. Best chicken in la truly. The owners were so gracious everyone is so nice. It's a little hole in the wall and I feel like that makes the experience even better.

I don't know why it took me so long to try this place but glad I finally came. It was a great experience. Food was fresh and hot. Waffle came out hot and I like that they give warm syrup. First time I've gone to a place that warns it. The chicken a good size, tender, and cooked perfectly. First time I've had chicken and waffles and it wasn't hard and overcooked. The greens were really good too. Fairly priced and delicious food. Props to the cook and the young man serving us. The inside was organ and clean. Everyone was very kind and professional. Can't wait to go back. I got two different breakfast plates and added a side of mac. Total came out to about $40.

Stopped in to try Day Day's for dinner and it didn't disappoint. Everything that we ordered was great!! I had the half bird, waffle, scrambled egg with cheese and potatoes. Great sweet tea too! I will definitely be back to try the catfish! Prices were reasonable and portions are large

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.
