If you know the expression, "the cook put their foot in it..." when food is good... At BBs, they put their entire leg in it! (Im literally doing the Stanky Leg danceThe food is a throwback to Georgia / Louisiana flavors, and so is the hospitality. The catfish was light and crispy. The greens were cooked well with the slight notes of smoked pork. The Mac & cheese was balanced and cheesy, not heavy or greasy. The waffles... oh my the waffles, its a must try! BBs makes Roscoes look and taste like Cliftons cafeteria food... so much better. Such a diamond, I doubled my order TO-GO. Now you know, so GO!

Do yourself a favor and try the chicken wings and waffles. Also, the pulled pork breakfast burrito is probably the best breakfast burrito I have ever had. A sublime experience.

Baby listen, the food is good! Chicken, YES!!! Greens, YES!!! AND I dont know what the hell shes putting in those "hush puppies", but I could eat a bag of them.๐Ÿ˜ฉ๐Ÿฅด๐Ÿ˜‹ The macaroni and cheese looked tricky at first glance, but its actually really delicious. Strawberry lemonade is divine. Porkchops, what????๐Ÿ˜‹ Now, shes only open from 9-2pm certain days a week so make sure you get there early. Well worth it! ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ4 1/2 ๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ’ซ

I ordered the chicken wings and collard greens to go. The chicken was drumettes, not wings, and the chicken wasnt done on the inside. The greens was just okay. When I asked fir some vinegar to put on the greens, I was told they had never head if anyone putting vinegar on greens. Most Southern and soul food restaurants have vinegar for you to put on your greens.

Went with my friends after a music festival and we all loved it. The food was amazing. The staff was so friendly. Thereโ€™s just a family vibe with this place and I love it. Itโ€™s an hour away but I will definitely make that drive for food.

Ordered the Pulled Pork Sandwich w/sides and was not disappointed. Authentic taste and generous portions. Was thinking there wasnโ€™t a good BBQ place in Covina and happily proved wrong! ๐ŸฅฐOnly wish I had tried BBโ€™s a lot earlier so will definitely be coming back.

Bruuhhhhโ€ฆ This is THAT place. One of the best soul food joints Iโ€™ve ever ate at, and Iโ€™ve had soul food all around New Orleans. Also hands down the best greens Iโ€™ve ever had. Highly recommend everyone to come here.

Its too bad I can only give this place 5 stars, cause I just had one of the most satisfying meals of my life.Probably the best waffle I have ever eaten, it was truly a magical experience, whoever is cooking, guessing her name is BB, she has tapped in to some magical stuff. Typically when nearing the end of a waffle, it gets somewhat mushy, after sitting in the butter and syrup, but I kid you not, my last bite of waffle was still crunchy on the outside, while the buttery syruppy goodness filled the inside, it was a religious experience.Oh wait, whats that? You wanna know about the chicken? Gordon Ramsay couldnt cook a better piece of fried chicken! I could literally taste the love. Crispy, juicy flavorful, there is nothing else I could say.BB, I think I love you, please never leave me.

My daughter and I loved her food. She seem very humble and down to earth. The young lady at the counter was very nice and on it too. We had the fish dinner with macaroni and cheese, baked beans, greens (which were on point), and hush puppies. My oldest went last month and bought me one of her shower curtains, hand drawn due to her fiance dropping my dinner off the car roof so that shower curtain made up for the lost dinner. We will definitely eat there again. โ˜บ

Today was our 1st visit and it will not be our last! We drove 45 mins on the recommendation of a friend and she was right! The food is outstanding! I chose the catfish meal and it was so crisp and delicious! And you wont go wrong with any of their sides. Im not embarrassed to say that we finished the whole thing in the car before driving off. Really the best way to enjoy it is fresh and hot!

Came here on 5/30/20 at 9am when they opened for some chicken and waffles and had the wonderful experience of meeting BB herself, along with the friendly women behind the counter. I was greeted with a warm smile and welcomed by everyone in the kitchen. The chicken and waffles were really good! Simple and delicious! Canโ€™t find a good soul food spot around the area, so I was pleasantly surprised with BBโ€™s! Will definitely be back for the service and good food!

Upon entering BBโ€™s Cafe, i received a very homey and comforting vibe from the staff and Ms.BB herself. My girlfriend and I ordered the Bacon&Waffle, Chicken&Waffle, Mac&Cheese, with a Red Kool Aid and let me tell you something, I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED! We received our food in a timely manner, it was fresh, delicious, and had ZERO complaints. All of their food is priced fairly, tastes more than great, and this all comes along with excellent customer service. Anyone with a right mind would have no choice but to come here and enjoy something from Ms.BBโ€™s delicious menu!

Theres absolutely nothing good here as far as food quality. Customer service is fine but the people in the kitchen just flat out cannot cook.Ordered a lemonade and it was way too sour. Had to add alot of sugar to make it palatable. Waffles were bad. Texture is weird and too soft to where it absorbs the syrup and yet is still dry so you end up having to add more syrup to compensate. Flavor profile also off. My eggs were completely overcooked. Chicken was bland and a bit overcooked. Mac n cheese also bland. NOTHING I consumed here tasted good.

I had driven past this spot dozens of times since they opened a couple years back, but kept forgetting to stop in. Man, I didnt know what I was missing. You can literally smell the chicken and waffles walking up to the place. So good! Ive been here a few times now. The waffles are good (its true, theyre more on the soft sideand they go perfect with the crispiness of this chicken. The ribs are also very good. And totally out of left field...their breakfast burritos are amazing. Thick, savory, and filling. The service is good. Never had to wait more than 15 minutes for anything I ordered. Its a small location, but Im telling you, what they do with it is fantastic.

This is easily the best soul food in the area. Their fried chicken is divine and its so much better than anything you can get anywhere else. Their Mac and cheese is equally as amazing. I really cant overstate how much I love their food here.Michelle is really sweet. Theyre super attentive and theyre lovely to chat with.

BB is amazing. The food is always so good. My husband found this family owned restaurant and we havent stopped going since. Every time we go we are treated like family. My fav is the breakfast burrito but i also love the Mac n cheese n baked beans as my sides. I get the sweet tea and a refill before i go. The burrito was so good I was half way when I remembered to take a picture today.

A no-frills soul food based spot. We tried their chicken and waffles and found the dough in the waffles to have a nice chewy doughnut like texture. Friendly and attentive staff. A bit of a small sitting area, but they accommodated some overcrowding by implementing a foldable outdoor table and chairs. Iโ€™ll have to try their breakfast burrito the next time Iโ€™m in the area.

Best chicken and waffles ever. Saturday breakfast with hubby. We both had chicken and waffles. Price point perfect. Two hefty plates of waffles and chicken with coffee $25 with tip. Chicken perfectly cooked. No breading, just a light dredge and super crispy skin and succulent chicken inside. Waffle was delicious and super flavorful. Served with real butter too. Everything came hot fresh from fryer and waffle iron. Met BB and she is a delight. Staff pleasant. Service prompt. Do yourself a favor and come here. Only three tables, but I bet the lunch/dinner takout if fabulous. Well do that next time. Love that the menu is limited and they do what they do right.

This place has 3 tables and hardly any space to stand otherwise. We ordered chicken and then waited for about 30 minutes before we got served. This is when we noticed they had served us ribs. When we told the young lady we had ordered chicken, she did not apologize or offer to redo our order. Rather, she said chicken is not served with the veggies we had ordered.Rather than argue and wait another 30 minutes, we decided to eat the ribs. They were fatty with hardly any bbq sauce on them.Not a good experience.Do not recommend.

This place is great!! Greeted by Michelle when we arrived. She really engages with the customer. The everyday menu is small and they offer daily lunch specials. I would definitely recommend dining with this mother and daughter team. They make you feel like part of the family and the food is delicious!!

Super good chicken and waffles. Was a little skeptical at first of the wings, but theyre actually a perfect blend of white and dark meat texture. Waffle had a lot of flavor. Made fresh so it takes a little time. Call ahead if youve got a short lunch.

My wife and I have driven passed this place for months and have finally decided to stop by and try it. All I can think of now is, why did we wait so long to try it?! Food was delicious, loved the chicken and waffles, chicken was juicy and full of flavor. Waffles were awesome, not super doughy at all, they were fluffy and soft. Dont forget about that red Kool-Aid with the chicken and waffles, totally hit the spot! Got to meet the owners daughter, Michelle who was super friendly and warm hands down one of the best "hole in the wall" restaurants Ive ever been too! Great food and great service. Thanks!
