Eat Well Menu

Eat Well Restaurant Review:

"Step on in and Eat Well," proclaims this L.A. diner-styled spot owned by a mom-and-son team. And you probably will feel just like you are in Ma’s kitchen, that is if you grew up on a hearty Americana diet of, say, mashed taters and steak and eggs. The food here is real (as in real mashed potatoes) and the staff says no frozen vegetable will ever find its way into the kitchen, but it can be a little bit on the heavy, greasy side. The spicy sausage in the "breakfast mess," for instance, is reminiscent of its low-grade, oily peers on chain-food pizza. We grant that this is fine and even expected for regular diner fare, and the folks here, being aware of our SoCal need for healthy grub, also offer some politically correct dishes like the Buddha bowl (seasoned tofu sautéed with broccoli, mushrooms, zucchini and onions, served over brown rice) and lots of vegetarian pastas. But comfort food like tuna melts, BLTs and breakfast specialties are the real draw. Do try one of the tasty root beer floats, too.
