Came here with a guest along with a large appetite to kick off the new month. I ordered catfish with scrambled eggs and grits as my side with butter. My guest opted for a bit more traditional fair with sausage, country potatoes, scrambled eggs, and some sourdough bread. The food was, simply put immaculate. The CSA (CUSTOMER SERVICE ALL STAR) of this experience was Justin-pictured. His superb mannerisms were matched by his efficiency. All in all a great outing. read more

Moby's was the spot in 1988 when I worked at Crenshaw Probation fresh out of high school. Their breakfast/brunch was very delicious, the service was great and the ambiance was amazing. It was a cool spot, with great people from the community and from outside of the area. My aunt and I worked at the probation department and she was also a travel agent at the (Whitman) Mayo Travel Agency that was on the same block the liquor store separating both businesses. I was in all three. read more

I've driven past this place many times and wanted to try it first time and was so excited. Packed with customers! Cute and a nice mature vibe. Called before I arrived and asked if they served fried pork chops. I was told enthusiastically YES! Get there after a long night at work (logistics). I'm hungry! Ordered, service is decent and coffee excellent! Food comes out and pork chops are a disappointment. Flour batter is horrid and chops are chewy. I'm over it after eating a partial. I go back to sending out work emails and enjoying my coffee. Server noticed I'm not eating much. Asks about my experience and I tell him. He's a bit defensive and said, Everyone likes them. Me: I tried to avoid this convo, but you asked. And they aren't good at all. So, needless to say, I visited the nearest market and I'm home frying chops I should have simply went to my favorite breakfast spot...down the street! SN: Horrid pork chops. Instead of being defensive over my dislike of the chops, the server could have simply said, "I'm sorry they were not to your standard." Next time try our "fill in the blank" Anywho‍ Out of 5 stars... 2‍ read more

Great customer service who was tasty I highly recommend this place I ordered the eggs and sausage eggs was cooked. Perfectly sausage was done. Well I called my order in. I didn't have to wait more than 10 minutes to pick it up. It has a old school environment, but don't let that turn you away read more

This has always been one of my faves over the years and I must add they are still as good after all these years. The food is great and seasoned to perfection. I think I've had just about everything on the menu. My favorite is the grits and fish or chicken wings. The portions are more than enough, I'm always greeted with a smile. The service is great. Hadn't been in awhile so I'm glad they're still doing it well. I highly recommend if you're looking for an easy to get to breakfast spot right in the neighborhood. read more

The food is of good quantity, and the customer service is excellent. The omelette is superior to Denny's.

Food is good....service is spotty....cost of standard breakfast is over $20. Parking in the back is inadequate

Miraculously, traffic was light on the way to LAX on a Friday morning and my wife and I got into the area two hours early. Ventured into Moby's for breakfast and have now realized that arriving two hours early to LAX will always be the goal from now on so that we can stop in for a bite! Corned beef hash and eggs, French toast, shrimp and grits...all of it was absolutely delicious! Great vibe in the coffee shop, and the staff is friendly and very attentive. We will be back! read more

It was nice and clean. They took a little bit long to come to my table and wipe it off the spinach omelette had too much spinach and the fish was double fry.

Two of us ate at Moby''s Saturday 11/22/25 and were disappointed with our order. My Vegetarian omelette was very greasy, however my grits were good. My sister was the other person with me who said the chicken wings were large like a turkey wing, (possibly too much hormones) therefore not eaten, but ate the smaller chicken wings on her plate. Last but not least, a faint smell lingered in the air which smelled like old cooking oil. Needless to say we will not be going back to Moby's but will continue to support other restaurants in our community. read more

I just placed a pick up order from Moby's and the food tastes like they haven't cleaned their stove in months! The turkey patty was absolutely disgusting and had that overwhelming old taste! I have been going here for years and I have never left a comment on any restaurant before. But the way this food tastes I was way too upset to not let the store and the customers know!! Yuck! read more

The service is horrible! Won't ever return here! There's one server for the whole place! It's been a while since I came here and unfortunately won't be back!! The food was bland. No seasoning. My patty just didn't taste fresh! Now when the bill came....was never indicated on the menu that if you pay card it's like a 2.50 difference versus paying cash! I ordered the patty melt. On the menu it says $14.99 when the bill came $15.59. My guys plate on the menu was $16.49 on the bill $17.15....now it's not the price moreso it doesn't state these specific charges on the menu! From the screaming child to the bad energy in the building....not inviting! Then when I checked online on the site I quickly got annoyed. The server gave me nothing but attitude! I have a one so trust she was no match for me!! This place use to be inviting....now any horrible memory read more

I absolutely love this place. The food is great, great customer service, clean, just an all around great place.

Thank you for sharing your experience. It's incredibly important for businesses--especially those that are embraced by long-standing communities like Black Inglewood--to respect their customers, uphold fair business practices, and maintain both cultural sensitivity and basic hospitality. Here are a few key points that come across from your account: 1. Cultural Exploitation Without Respect Displaying old photos of Black leaders to signal solidarity while failing to treat Black customers with dignity is not cultural appreciation--it's exploitation. It sounds like the restaurant may be trying to maintain a façade of cultural connection while eroding the quality and service that built community trust in the first place. 2. Degrading Food Quality and Service Poorly cooked food, argumentative service staff, and cheap ingredients are a clear sign that the restaurant may be cutting corners while raising prices--this is a betrayal of loyal customers who've supported them over the years. You deserved better. 3. Shady Pricing Practices Hidden surcharges, unexplained pricing discrepancies, and failing to post required notices (especially if the sign "fell down" and was moved somewhere customers can't see) could potentially violate consumer protection laws in California. Many businesses transparently post any credit card surcharges and allow customers to opt for other forms of payment. What you describe sounds deceptive and disrespectful. 4. Unacceptable Restroom Setup Requiring customers to walk through an alley to use a makeshift washroom while paying premium prices for basic food is unacceptable. This speaks volumes about the owner's disregard for customer comfort and basic hygiene standards. read more

Amazing 10/10 service every time I go I love moby. Been going here for years. Highly recommend

Poor quality food and even worse customer service. Would rather threaten to call the police then admit their mistakes and issue a refund. I placed an order for takeout for a grilled bacon and cheese sandwich with an addition of an egg. That's not what I received, I got an egg and cheese sandwich. I gave the restaurant a call to advise them of the mistake. I was offered to drive all the way back to have it corrected or to receive an IOU. I don't frequent this establishment enough to have an IOU nor did I want to drive all the way back (hence the phone call). I asked for a refund over the phone I was met pushback. The person who answered the phone advised that the cook said the bacon was on the sandwich and that I would need to prove it wasn't, instead of the cook proving it was. I was now a liar, the cook couldn't possibly have been mistaken. I was also told that to receive a refund it is typically required to inconvenience the customer and have them return in order to do so. I advise the restaurant that I would go ahead and follow their normal process and bring the food back and I wasn't happy about it. While en route to the restaurant, I was given a call and informed that they reviewed security footage, they already had available to them and determined that the cook lied. No apology was given for accusing me of being a liar or requiring me to come back. The refund that couldn't be done over the phone had now been done and I was not welcome to the restaurant because they did not want an upset patron in their facilities and they would call the police. I know the restaurant industry has low margins and $11.81 may be a lot to refund. I don't think it's good customer service to require a customer to come back or to submit evidence of a formal grievance. These are the same requirements the bank would have requested for a reversal, it was my hope that dealing with the restaurant would avoid such a tedious process. I find it disheartening that a business who made an error, accused the customer of lying about error, advised them of normal protocol, and when the customer attempted to follow their normal protocol, however, let them know that they were not happy about it, then chose to Weaponize the police. Especially when they made the mistake and they always had proof of their mistake available to them. Given the political climate in the neighborhood in which they're located one can only presume they meant to have their customer experience bodily harm. This restaurant does not care about the community in which it serves, it would rather cheat them, than hold themselves accountable. And when someone attempts to do so then they threaten to weaponize the police. I can only presume the owner is prejudice against customers and this is why their business is failing so badly they'd take these measures over $11.81. read more

Obviously the saying, when you know better, you do better does not apply to Moby's. I just placed an order for Mobys, but I have the unfortunate dilemma of living next-door to Sofi when there's a Rams Eagles game. I placed two orders one of them. I specifically asked for well done veggies the other was fine. When I called and spoke with the manager, she said no problem. Just bring them back with your receipt. I realized that I didn't have the receipt because at the end of any given week I could have 2030 receipts in my purse. I called back and got the man I know exactly who he is the Asian gentleman that works there or owns the place or whatever it is he was giving me a problem about potatoes! I spent $30 on my meal. He really wants to play with me over some undercooked potatoes all right. Gotcha. read more

Great service, great food.my only complaint is no biscuits as a bread choice for breakfast

Moby's Coffee Shop is a "go to" staple in Inglewood that any of the long-term patrons attest that is dependable and reliable. It's quaint, comfortable, and clean. The servers are always friendly and attentive to our needs and the cook staff gets it right every time. I took one of my grandsons and was blessed to expose him to this hidden treasures. He devoured his eggs, hotcakes, and sausage. My meal was absolutely divine and I was really satisfied when I left. If you're in Inglewood and need a filling breakfast, stop by. You'll be blessed that you did. Five yummies read more

Moby's used tone the place I always looked forward to having a simple but delicious breakfast. It was so much better when the Koreans owned it. Under the newer owners, the quality of service and food has unfortunately plummeted. I haven't been back there in about a year. The staff there seems to be very unorganized and inattentive to the guests. It's really a shame because I used to love Moby's. read more

Moby's is not what it used to be. We were so disappointed with the service and especially the food. They seem to know nothing about a true soul food breakfast. We won't be returning until things change in the kitchen. The food is not worth it at any price. The staff seems to know nothing about service. Looks like Moby's has abandoned our community. They're just in it for the money. The restaurant could use a good thorough cleaning as well. In addition, the restroom was horrible with no seat covers. To access the restrooms, you have to walk around the building outside to get to it. I read more

This is your typical diner, if you are a fan of diners then skip this spot, if you aren't a fan of diners the same thing applies. An associate of mine was on an errand and as a passenger princess I accompanied him and he decided to make a pit stop here for breakfast before heading back to our original destination, there's only street parking with small surrounding parking lots. As long as I've lived in Inglewood and go to all neighboring establishments from Big lots, rally's, fat burger, 7-11, the new Popeyes etc I have never heard nor seen this hole in the wall. Meaning word of mouth is not your best friend and neither is marketing, chances of you getting new customers might be better with promotion. Otherwise keep riding the regular patron wave. As soon as he mentioned diner and hole in the wall I knew to expect the bare minimum, when you walk in it's very small and crowded not much space. It reminds me of sushi and ramen spots where you sit right at the bar or in front. He likes to be able to watch people make his food, Benihana style but breakfast. Not much decor or atmosphere, it gives eat and go vibes, I would never recommend a date here. Took awhile for service, she just slid us the menus and appeared to be the only server, while another male was a food runner/ busser. No idea if it was the owner or manager but this man was irate about the set up of inside, he started complaining about the to go area in the middle of the dining room, cleaning chemicals were on the counter etc he had to start organizing in front of us. Once that was situated she was able to take our orders, he got a custom omelette, I request chicken tenders w hot cakes for $12 they didn't have any chicken tenders. I just request a #3 it's 3 hotcakes, choice of eggs and protein, I got scrambled with bacon. While sitting there my company points out the wad of cooked bacon just sitting in the corner of the flattop, and I just knew my bacon wasn't going to be fresh. At least the pancakes and eggs weren't already made waiting to be served, they looked nice and fluffy. The portions of both our plates were good but I've never been to a skimpy diner. My hotcakes were ok, good texture just no flavor even with the syrup it was just missing that love pancakes have. Of course my bacon was cold since it's just been sitting out but it was good cold bacon, and my eggs were cooked right but just another bland edition. I did not finish my food because I was full but lack of flavor just wasn't good enough to continue to eat, no satisfaction didn't even want a to go box. My company finished his food but idk to many guys that aren't garbage disposals, he tried my hot cakes and didn't appear to want them either. We waited so long for our check, we started watching tv on his phone for a cool minute before she brought the tab, and then took another forever moment before he could actually pay. The tab rounded up was $40 which is usual, I always say at least $20 minimum per person when dining out. This place does not leave memorable dining experiences or serve good enough food to warrant a return. If anything I'll only remember this place now because of the person I went with but nothing more. If you can there are other surrounding places that serve better quality food, without breaking your pockets, the food was so boring I didn't even bother with pictures but trust me when I say, you aren't missing anything. read more

I been going to Moby's for over 45 years and when "Ma ma San" the grandmother, ran the shop. I great friends with the dad until he retired. Now this " I guest" grandson is there clearly cutting corner. Giving people smaller portions, and rude. I hate I have to stop going. read more

I make better eggs and pancakes with my microwave. The service sucked. The waitress seemed confused and exercised limited abilities to process simple questions regarding the charges, the menu and the bill. So called manager was argumentative and over talked when I was asking a question regarding the questionable charges on the menu- cash vs credit card charge. Kept double talking about "because of the prices of eggs" but sent out some dang hard eggs with a sprinkle of cold cheese on top. In the blackest part of Inglewood with black leaders all over this tiny eatery. Not even concerned or care enough about the aesthetics to placate a younger and evolving black community to add or upgrade the black leaders on the wall. Got folks walking behind the building to use an unclean grimy bathroom. No sanitizer in sight. Same ole same ole. Here to suck the black dollar while delivering the bare minimum. If I ever return to this place it will be from the grave and I mean that! read more
