We had the smashed burger with not the best expectations but It was actually really good.

Food took a while but worth the wait.

We had a very unpleasant experience eating here. After eating the food, most of which was bland, burnt, and took over 40 min to get out, we waited nearly 20 min to pay the bill. When the waitress came she hovered over us and told us that if we only tip 15% then she's basically working for free. It made everyone feel really uncomfortable because she was pressuring us to tip more than 15%. Really left a bad impression and for this reason we will not be back.

When it takes almost an hour to get simple breakfast food and they still get it wrong, then some changes need to be made in the kitchen. I feel bad for our server having to take the brunt of all the guests disappointment. The hashbrowns aren’t seasoned, the poached eggs were partially uncooked, and the toast was burnt. This place needs to change fast or it’s not going to last, which is a shame because it’s cute inside.

Owner has terrible attitude when dealing with complaints and bad reviews. he's admitted that this place won't be open much longer.

The diner is super cute and we used to come here when it was Kanes and always enjoyed it. Today we went in for breakfast and I wish I had one good thing to say about it. The service was mediocre, our waitress was very slow and the place wasn’t even that busy. The food was just terrible! And very pricey compared to other places. My partner got pancakes and they were not fully cooked, he also got a side of sausage and it was horrible.. we asked the waitress to comp it because it was that bad. I had eggs Benedict which was so so.. definitely nothing to write home about but more edible than my partners for sure. The lady behind us had returned her eggs because they weren’t cooked properly.

Literally disgusting. Unedible. Made us pay full price.

Food was adequate but some of the worst service I’ve experienced in a long time, would not return. Never got the extra plate we asked for, server kept rushing away before we could finish ordering or asking questions, disappointing.

I do not recommend eating here. My mother and I ordered the salt and pepper wings and Mac and cheese. To start off the wings were SO salty you couldn’t even eat them, and was barely any meat on the bones. For $18 you’d think they’d be at least seasoned properly. Next is the Mac and cheese, it was so unseasoned and straight up bland that not even the bacon could save it. My step dad had the French toast with bacon, the French toast was fine but the bacon was burnt. Overall would not recommend eating here unless you want to be disappointed. Such a shame because it is a very cute restaurant just the food is horrible.

Just not great. Intended to be a 50s diner feel but the atmosphere doesn’t fit.
Food was heavy. Fries were way too salty and pop was flat. Disappointing. First clue should have been how empty the place was at noon.

Came here with the family for dinner after attending Sunfest in Inglewood. I love the diner concept so wanted to try this place. Inside had a really good vibe and there was a live band playing.

Food is really good here but service is a bit slow. I don't think they anticipated the influx of people dining due to Sunfest being outside. Maybe if you come on a regular day it would be better.

My wife and I ordered the Smash Burger and it was really good. You can tell they use fresh ingredients. My son ordered the mac and cheese (his goto) and it looked pretty good to.

Great location in Inglewood. Just super slow on this day. It took an hour for our food to arrive. But the food was great.

I ordered a smashburger and dreams! That was probably the best salad I've ever eaten and the burger was totally awesome! Mom had a grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup was to die for! I highly recommend this restaurant, the service was awesome also!
