Eat! Eat! (I like to say it like a bird chirping) is exactly what I remember small town diners being like. You can go there all the time and get affordable, home-cooked meals that taste good.
Eat! Eat! has all of the standard breakfast and lunch fare and they do it up right. Not fancy, just well done. They also have a specials board where they include a rotating menu of fancy/decadent options (stuffed french toast, interesting things with eggs). They do really good soup here and I'd recommend the yam chips.
The staff is usually the same and pretty friendly, the coffee isn't great, but isn't bad and the decor seems to be inspired by a box of crayons.
Inglewood is lucky to have such a great variety of restaurants. If you're in the mood for a budget-friendly, home-cooked meal, I say Eat! Eat! at Eat! Eat! (see what I did there?).
