I've had two recent experiences here - one dine-in and one take-out. Pro tip: if you order take out, there's a discount of 15 or 20% OFF. It was quite busy on both visits on a Saturday and Sunday morning. While I waited for my meal，I was given a small concha as an appetizer I guess (free of charge). My food was tasty. Essentially I ordered breakfast staples - sausage, scrambled eggs and Feench toast brioche waffles. I got an ice horchata coffee or latte as well. Service was prompt and staff was professional. My take- out order was the super veggie omelet. I thought this dish wasn't bad but I wish it had hollandaise sauce. I am definitely ordering the spinach mushroom stacker / omelet next! I also aim to try more of their specialty coffees. Its nice to have this place locally and hope it sticks around for many years to come!

The server suggested the most popular dishes, though I went for my staple chilaquiles breakfast that I try everywhere. I really enjoyed them. The complimentary conchita was a plus. Paired well with the horchata coffee. Would return for sure.

This morning, my wife and I visited this restaurant for the first time. I'm glad we did. We had a very good breakfast to start off the day. I ordered the basic combo which comes with eggs, hashbrowns, your choice of 2 pieces of bacon/sausage, and buttermilk pancakes. I got scrambled eggs, one sausage, and one piece of bacon with the hashbrowns and buttermilk pancakes. My wife ordered the same combo except with two pieces of bacon, eggs cooked over easy, and crepes. Before our orders came out, we got a plate with a couple of mini conchas on it. The conchas were a tasty and sweet surprise. The orders came out pretty fast. The scrambled eggs were warm and fluffy. The hashbrowns were nice and crispy. The entire meal was satisfying. My wife did notice that her crepes were a little undercooked, but overall, she enjoyed her meal as well. I think the service here was solid, not phenomenal. Even though, we were the only customers dining in the restaurant, we weren't really checked upon until we were ready for the check. That's not to say that the staff were just standing around doing nothing. There were a handful of people coming in for takeout and delivery orders. They helped with that. Additionally, a couple of the restaurant employees were diligently cleaning the ceiling of the restaurant. They keep this place very tidy and clean, which I can appreciate. I'm not sure why this place isn't more popular. Their dishes are reasonably priced and of high quality. I would recommend this place. I think it's better than a lot of the larger and well known chain restaurants who serve breakfast.

I was in town with my mom for a concert. We wanted to go to Norms for breakfast the day after the show but their power was out. We stumbled upon this place and we are so happy we did! We came in with a little rush of others so we had to wait maybe 10-15 minutes before we were sat. It looked like there were only 2 waitress working and no bussers. They were both very nice considering how busy it got. My mom and I split some scrambled eggs and hash browns and bacon. I also ordered the French toast and my mom had some sort of crepes. Coffee was good too! I would definitely recommend checking this place out! We also loved the panecitos we got while waiting for our food :)

Turtle. Pretty tasty. Love the crunchy part. Tortuga está rica. Le digo torta ya que co)h@ es malo para nosotros.

April my server was great. Knows her products well and was very kind and attentive. Thank you April. Food was good but the nine spice green sauce was still a bit spicy.

Mayra G.

We had great service by April! She was so patient and able to explain all the dishes we had questions on. She also suggested alternative ways on how we could order the dish. The food was delicious! My mom ordered the chilaquiles with steak and eggs plate. We ordered a side of French toast and I ordered a spinach and mushroom omelette with hollandaise sauce and country potatoes.

Such a delicious diner! Definitely a hidden gem in the rough. It was a Monday morning and I had a vet appointment in the area. It was 8:30am and hadn't eaten yet needed to wait so why not go to a local diner. Loaded was at the top of my Yelp app and it filled me perfectly. Easy, strip mall parking and as a weekday, it was a breeze getting a booth by myself. The one waitress serving the customers was very sweet and felt comfortable right away. The diner itself is newish, clean and modern. Menu-wise, there's a Latino flair which makes it all delish! I like there's the Crepe Combo which is really good! The plain crepes have a soft sweetness and I opted for sausage and poached eggs. It came with a side of concha which seemed to have a dash of cinnamon and I wolfed it down! To drink, I had a horchata latte and that's really sweet! A great meal - I'd definitely go back if I'm In the area. Thanks!

Jasmine R.

The atmosphere was great. They moved to a bigger location, which is awesome. The Service was OK. Waitress was attentive, but she had to be intentionally because first the coffee mug was served with lipstick rings on there. Then the second coffee mug came, the half-and-half was poured inside the coffee, but the half-and-half was spoiled. So we 86 the coffee. Besides that the food was good I would come back. FYI the restrooms need a face lift.

Patty S.

I had high expectations before getting here. The Warm panecitos and the Orchata latte were the best. I was personally disappointed on the food. CANNOT say it was bad, but it was definitely none-eventful. The chilaquiles had yellow cheese and that was the nail in the coffin for me. I was looking for authentic yummy Mexican food. The enchiladas had yellow cheese! As well.... The service was great. She was very informative and amicable. The ambiance was good (not too loud) and it had a relaxed family atmosphere. I will more than likely not be back.

Vanessa V.

This is my second time coming here and decided to bring my mother to treat her. I order the classic breakfast with French toast and she order the wings. I'm surprised she really enjoy it cause she is a picky eater! Hope you like my review and decide on what to get. Enjoy!

Small, mom and pop vibe place located in a small shopping strip mall. Place could use some cosmetic maintenance/upgrades but it was clean. It was pretty busy, a lot of takeout orders too. Good prices and good food, my over easy eggs were cooked perfectly. Really liked the strawberry almond crepes! Our server was really nice and attentive. Just one thing... no Tapatio, only Tabasco sauce available. A place like this needs to have Tapatio or other hot sauce options. Other than that, Good food, good prices, good service. read more

It was a little empty when we went around 1pm but I believe it gets busy during the morning and night . It was nice and had a comforting feel . read more

Loaded Cafe has a nice mix of American and Mexican breakfast & lunch eats. Staff, especially Mell are awesome and attentive. Son killed the chicken fried steak and eggs, good gravy! I enjoyed the spicy Jalapeno bacon cheeseburger, great house sauce and really good onion rings! For the table they give conchitas and they were some of the better ones we've had, fresh, warm and soft. Son got the Oreo milkshake and loved the thick whipped cream and shake, he's a connoisseur. Again, Mell was great and if we're ever in this area again we'll make this a stop! Mini shopping complex with many little businesses and tight parking FYI. read more

People keep calling this place the Mexican Denny's. The only thing that I have to say about this is because it is. They serve their take on breakfast favorites but they are also offering lunch and dinner items too, despite closing at 4 too(most Denny's I know are around the clock). They kind of remind me of the Pan and Corner Burger but those are two different reviews for a different time. I've tried crepes, the shredded beef and potato burrito, a burger and the potato tacos covered in queso. Standard comfort food. read more

I visited with a friend who gave rave reviews about their $7 menu specials. We went on a week day and it was crowded but they were busy with to go. I ordered the chicken enchilada plate with beans and rice and it was not flavorful. The red sauce was tasty, I put that on everything but I only ate half the plate. My friend ordered the chicken enchiladas torta but wanted the sauce on the side. They brought her the torta split with a different sauce on each. In addition, her food was cold. My friend brushed it off, she said she would warm it up at home. Lastly, my friend asked for a to go box. Do you know, the box was dirty?! The top looked cleaned and under was a used one! Furthermore, the experience wasnt the best. After we left, I looked up and noticed they had a "B" rating at the restaurant! Sigh. read more

Well, it's been quite a while since we dined here and, after tonight, we are wondering why we…read moredidn't come back sooner. The last time we were here, it was during a busy lunch and both the service and the food were below par. But tonight, it wasn't as busy and our server, Geovani, was excellent. First, we were quickly greeted and asked to select our table (since they were not that busy). Since there was only two of us, we picked a table for two. But, after we decided that we would split an appetizer and an entree, the table for two became way to small way too quickly. Geovani jumped right on this, suggesting we move to a larger table. He helped us move everything over and, voila, we were able to stretch out and relax and enjoy our meal. We started with the pear and blue cheese salad and, wow, we could have just ordered this, split it, and we would have been full. Very flavorful, generous portion that is definitely big enough to share. We also ordered the Sausage & Leek Fettuccine and I was definitely not thinking. Totally forgetting that leeks are part of the onion family (and I have a sensativity to onions). Once the dish arrive, I immediately noticed the similarity and was slowly trying to pick them away from my portion. Once again, Geovani came to our rescue. He asked how everything was and I told him I made a mistake (noted above). He quickly volunteered to have the kitchen make it again without the leeks. I asked, "Are you sure?", and he immediately said yes and removed the dish. Very shortly after, he returned with the "onion sterile" dish and it was wonderful. Both of us were so full you could have rolled us out the door. Good thing the parking garage is so close so we could just hop in our car and go home. Time to loosen the belt! ;) In a week where we have had some personal issues, it was so nice to be treated so well and received such a great tasting meal. Hope you get the time to stop in and I hope you get Giovani to answer all your questions and issues. Enjoy!!!

For desert we ordered the lemon drop pancakes. Definitely a unique flavor that I've never had before. Per the name, it was definitely on the sweet side.

I was only in Cali for a short while, and this spot happened to be about 15 min down the street from where I was staying. Perfect location, and I was curious to see how Cali does soul food. From the first bite, it hit me Emotionally triggered as I was transported straight back to my childhood. It felt like I was sitting at the kitchen table in New Orleans, eating my nanny's candied yams, greens, macaroni, and fried chicken. The flavors had that deep, home-cooked love, that is not taken for granted or lost on me, so hats off to the cook! That kind of food doesn't just fill you up; it connects you,and to top it off, the drinks? Man, they serve that real deal kol-aid. The kind I used to drink as a kid. As I was eating, I started thinking about how food ties us to previous & future generations. It's wild how dishes once considered scraps i.e: greens, yams, cornbread, oxtails, are now sought out in restaurants just like this one. These meals are more than just food; they're stories of survival, resilience, and community. But I digress, I know y'all didn't come here for a history lesson in Black culture, so I'll leave it at that. Now, onto the standouts. The mac and cheese and yams? Easily the stars of the plate. I like my yams runny and solid, because I love mixing it with the cornbread. Sweet, savory, soft--that combo hits every time. The macaroni? Seasoned perfectly. Creamy, rich, and not bland like you sometimes get at other spots . That's rare, and I don't take it for granted. Overall, Soul Food Shack gave me more than just a good meal, it gave me a taste of home, miles away from where I grew up. If you're ever in Inglewood and need some food that feeds more than just your stomach, pull up, tap in, eat up.

I'm a little bit on the fence as far as my feelings for this place. My wife and I had breakfast here on one of my rare days off. I'd seen so many great Yelp reviews that I figured it was worth a visit. But my experience was both pleasant and slightly disappointing. I'll try to keep it short & sweet(ish)... The restaurant is located in a small strip mall. The surrounding area doesn't look the nicest or most welcoming. The inside of the restaurant is pretty basic but has some nice wall decor with inspirational saying on them. The place is relatively small although they do try to make use of all available floor space as possible. This is both a blessing and a curse since it means more access to seating, but in very close proximity to other patrons at times. Let's get down to the food... which in my opinion is good, but not great. The menu selection is plentiful with all your usual egg, omelette and pancake options. And they have crepes, which is a major plus in my book! Portions sizes are pretty generous and pricing is very reasonable. But as far as taste, everything was more or less A-OK to me. For me, nothing really stood out as being exceptional. As previously stated by other Yelpers, it does seem like the owner has connections to IHOP since the pancakes taste similar and the various syrup flavors are identical. IHOP quality food for little diner prices and great service to boot makes this a solid 4-star spot in my opinion. A great breakfast spot for the locals or anyone else that might be in the area. It'd probably be my Go-To place if I lived close by. But for everyone else, it's probably not worth the trek since you can find equally good breakfast spots that are closer to where you live. read more

I recently visited Loaded Cafe with high hopes after seeing their impressive social media presence. Unfortunately, the experience was a letdown. The restaurant wasn't busy, but cleanliness seemed to be an issue with dirty plates on several tables. While the complimentary warm mini concha was a nice touch, the service was lacking. I struggled to get a simple coffee refill and had to repeatedly ask different servers. For our meal, my coworker opted for steak and eggs, and I chose the chile verde, which was recommended as popular and moderately spicy. The salsa, however, was overwhelmingly spicy, far beyond the expected level. Despite the restaurant not being busy, our food took 30 minutes to arrive. My coworker's portion was so small it resembled a child's meal, and my dish was equally disappointing in size and presentation - especially for the $17 price tag. The chile verde's color and taste were nothing like the menu's depiction. Again, service for refills was poor. I had read about the owners' journey in starting the business, which seemed promising, but it appears the focus has shifted away from essentials like menu quality and customer service. The diverse menu seems to lack a clear direction, and the fusion of American and Mexican cuisine falls short in execution. Based on this experience, I cannot justify a return visit. Paying $50 for such unsatisfactory meals and service was not worthwhile. It's a reminder that great marketing doesn't always translate to a quality dining experience. Regrettably, this restaurant fails to deliver on its promise, both in culinary delight and customer service. read more

I've never done a review but I want to give credit to a great dining experience. We walk in and immediately hear a shout from the back welcoming us. We stood there for about a or two and the server APRIL came out with full plates in hand saying she'd be with us shortly. The manager MARIA came out right after with drinks in hand and then got our table ready. Our server was APRIL and she informed us that she would be with us shortly as she had several tasks to do which I really admired. MARIA dropped us off fresh warm conchas while we waited. When APRIL came she was very sweet and informative and also apologized about the wait which we didn't mind as our party are restaurant workers as well and understand. The food was really good and APRIL'S recommendation of using the green Sriracha for an added kick was really good. APRIL was really pleasant through whole experience even though sweat covered she always had a smile on her face. MARIA charged us and was very sweet as well . I originally was just going to do a 5 star review for free the crepe but didn't even bother asking about it because they were understaffed which my whole party understood (I'm a GM of a restaurant as the rest of the party were managers of various positions) with the whole "situation" businesses are slower so staffing so we completely understood. Will definitely come back and again thank you APRIL and MARIA you two are rockstars read more

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Loaded Cafe, and I must say, it was an outstanding experience from start to finish! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a casual meal or a cozy catch-up with friends. One of the highlights of my visit was the exceptional service provided by our waitress, Liz. From the moment we sat down, Liz was attentive and cheerful, making sure we felt welcome. She was knowledgeable about the menu and offered great recommendations based on our preferences. Her enthusiasm for the food was infectious, and it truly enhanced our dining experience. The menu itself is a delightful mix of comfort food and unique dishes. I tried the loaded nachos, and they were absolutely delicious--packed with flavor and generous portions. Liz checked in frequently, ensuring our drinks were full and that we had everything we needed without being intrusive. Overall, Loaded Cafe is a gem, and Liz is a star! I can't wait to return for another meal and to see her bright smile again. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and excellent service! read more

I decided to indulge in two classic brunch dishes: the biscuits & gravy and a crepe. The biscuits & gravy were absolutely divine fluffy, buttery biscuits smothered in a rich, creamy gravy that had just the right amount of pepper and seasoning. Each bite was a comfort food dream, perfectly balancing heartiness and flavor. The crepe was equally impressive, with a delicate, thin wrapper that was cooked to golden perfection. Filled with a delicious combination of fresh ingredients, it was a light yet satisfying complement to the more robust biscuits & gravy. What truly elevated the experience was Mel's exceptional service. She was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely warm, making me feel welcome and ensuring my dining experience was top-notch. Whether you're a local or just passing through, Loaded Cafe is a must-visit brunch spot that promises delicious food and excellent service. read more

Excellent food. They also have fresh smoothies made. I just wish it was more affordable! They charge for Everything!! With that being said.. they Do have a lot of options to choose from so you don't have to add onto your meal if you choose to (for example if i wanted spinach amd bacon added to an omelet or something). On a positive note they give a good size portion for the kids pancake meal.. so we usually get that and add am extra egg or sausage if we feel more hungry. Pancakes and omelets are Very good here.. so we put up with the price. read more
