A huge thank you to Lorena and her team for ensuring that our work reunion breakfast, of 19 team members, was impeccably executed. In between our agenda, Lorena took our orders, refilled drinks, served up our food, and made sure everyone's requests were accurate and delivered with a smile. Her team wove in and out without interrupting our flow, keeping the food and drink service going. If you have a large group event, I would highly recommend this Mimi's Cafe in Whittier. Manager Sergio and his team are on the ball with juggling multiple group functions around the same time frame while taking care of the daily business customers.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five stars isn’t enough for this place!
We came in for breakfast and were blown away — not just by the food, but by the absolutely top-tier service. We ordered the Crab Cake Eggs Benedict and the Classic Eggs Benedict, both of which were perfectly cooked, rich, and flavorful. The crab cakes were especially impressive — crisp on the outside, tender inside, and full of fresh flavor.
To drink, I had the Peanut Butter Mocha Iced — hands down one of the most unique and delicious coffee drinks I’ve had in a long time. Shoutout to Valentino, who crafted it with clear skill and attention. The balance of chocolate, coffee, and peanut butter was spot on.
But what really made this experience unforgettable was Chelsea. Her service was outstanding — warm, attentive, and truly welcoming. She has that rare ability to make you feel completely at home from the moment you walk in. Chelsea brings an energy and professionalism that elevates the whole experience. She’s the kind of person who makes you want to come back, again and again.
If you’re in town and looking for a place that serves great food and treats you like family, this café is it. Don’t miss it — and ask for Chelsea and Valentino!

Very good steak and eggs. Not over salted. Pain Perdu could have used more orange marmalade. And But service was great, and not too crowded about 2 pm.

Met friends for lunch here, and it was delicious. The watermelon mojito highly recommended. This was my 2nd time at a Mimis, I will return.

The service is amazing here, our waitress Yami was very sweet and recommended all of the best dishes. She was very attentive and catered to all our needs to have a good experience at Mimi's cafe. I would recommend this place if you want good food and good service.
Went there for mother’s day and we absolutely loved it. Not only was the food amazing but our server Yami made the experience even better she was very nice and attentive.

Terrible Mother's Day experience here. Reservations were not honored in a timely fashion and we waited over 2 hours to have our food. Food orders were incorrect or altogether missing. Asked to speak to the manager on several occasions and he never showed up.

Horrible and overbooked restaurant. Waited for 1.5 hours to sit and eat. Everyone working was upset and had a sour attitude. Such a horrible Mother's Day experience.

I used to love Mimi's years ago. But in the last few years, every experience is increasingly worse. This morning was the last straw. We had reservations for mother's day brunch, but when we arrived the line to check in was 10 people deep and the waiting room was packed full of people waiting to be seated. The host was almost never there. Walk ins were given the same preference as reservations. When a host did appear, people waiting were yelling at them because their names were crossed off even though they had been waiting awhile. It was complete chaos, pandemonium. We ended up at Norm's down the street because it was at least calm and organized.
