Mimis Cafe

Two stars just to be polite. So it starts with being served with a cup of very poor coffee in a coffee cup with lipstick on it. Raw dough quiche. Onions are not supposed to make up 70% of a taco. Kids liked the pancakes. Oh and to my waitress. I am sorry you are here. It’s obvious that you do not want to be there. It’s ok. I understand. Highly recommend that no one goes here. Reduced to one star cause we never got our waters.

The girls and I had a very nice lunch at Mimi’s Café Arrowhead location today. The food was very good and our waitress Georgia was outstanding. She was attentive and very kind.
Thank you.

Mimi’s is awful, menu sucks, food is awful
It is not the same, service is awful. Will not go here again, they changed menu.

Came for a brunch seminar
Was given free bread as a starter and it was cold
Had to ask for straws for my water
Ordered Cobb salad dressing on the side
And ordered the pot roast
Drinks
Straight lemonade
Coffee

Sunday breakfast. They are always busy Sunday morning after church. They have good food and (usually) good service. Because they were so busy, we sat at the bar. The waitress that took our order and served us was quite rude. She had a bad attitude and was even offensive when asked a question. I wish I knew her name, I would include it, but they don’t wear name tags.
Everyone else was great!

This was our first visit to Mimis Café and it couldn’t have been better. We came with friends who have eaten here several times in the past and always have good things to say about it. We both ordered French Onion Soup and the Skewer Garden Salad. The skewers come with Shrimp or Scallops so I ordered one of each. Both were very good. Our friends ordered a Chicken Pot Pie and a Salmon dinner. They both had nothing but good things to say about their meals.
We are always looking for new restaurants to try. Some we can’t wait to go back and some we hope to never see again. This one’s a keeper. We’ll be back soon and often.

If you are under 35 years old they basically ignore you completely because they think they won’t tip. We come here frequently and that has been the common theme. Food is good but service is horrible if you are young. Today we got apple juice that was basically completely watered down to the point you could not even taste it, and have yet to be checked on for 20 minutes.

Fast seating. Quick ordering. Tryed to use a coupon but since it is Valentine’s day they don’t allow the bogo deal. Have a another coupon which doesn’t say not good on special days of holidays but the manager said no coupons of any kind can be used. This will be my last time here

The management is horrible, they have no communication skills with the rest of staff!
Need help with product knowledge and menu items and when they are available.

Not sure why this place only gets 3 stars. Had brunch and it was fantastic. Service was great. Only waited 15 min sat morning. Had mimosas and eggs Benedict and it was delish. Will be back to try lunch or dinner in the future. Glad we stopped I always just drive by thinking it was like a Denny’s but it’s not at all!

Had breakfast at Mimi’s in Glendale this past Weekend. The wait staff was not very attentive and the breakfast was burned, missing sauce (how the cooks and the waiter missed this is a mystery) I’d sent it back for eggs. A (manager?) later approached us to confirm they’d screwed up the breakfast though only offered half-​hearted apology and walked off.
I don’t think we’re going back there.

Came here for a weekend brunch as we didn’t feel like waiting for all of eternity at The Place (which is usually the case). As soon we walked in, we treated ourselves to a free helping of coffee cake and coffee in the waiting area. This was a certainly a welcoming surprise. Restaurant was clean and homey — like a dining room from a typical Colonial style home or cottage. Wait time was only about one minute, which is pretty damn good for a brunch place on a Sunday morning.
We ordered two entress — a croissant sandwich with egg, bacon, and tomato and a veggie omelette. The croissant was light and fluffy with a nice flaky outside. Egg in the sandwich was over-​easy which is my favorite style of egg. I would have liked it a little more runny, but that’s just a personal preference. Omelette was tasty and light without the heaviness that you find in most American breakfasts. Omelette also came with a side of potatoes which were pretty standard and a muffin with different flavors to choose from. We chose the pumpkin muffin and it was HUGE. The brown sugar crust on top was great and contrasted well with the moist, fluffy inside. This muffin was the best thing about the breakfast.
I wouldn’t go far out of the way to come here (as is the case with most chains) but since this walkable from where I live, I’d definitely come back.

My second visit to Mimi’s was nothing like the first. I ordered the cinnamon roll French Toast. The cinnamon roll they used was stale. The fruit in the fruit cup was either unripe or moldy.
My daughter ordered the strawberry banana waffle. It was ok, but her fruit was gross too.
Service was ok, but server did not seem to care about the moldy fruit.
I still tipped her, but I will NEVER go back to Mimi’s café.

Upon the recommendation of friends, we had breakfast at this Mimi’s Café in Glendale, AZ. They are still our friends. The server Cindy was on top of her game; very experienced to include detailed suggestions and knowledge of the various dishes/​combinations, and her timing to check on us was spot-​on. We had a standard eggs/​potatoes/​bacon meal and the breakfast tacos. Everything was delicious and very fresh. The bread/​toast was awesome. The manager was cruising all the tables to ensure everyone was happy. We found it difficult to believe this is a chain restaurant. Décor was comfortable and clean. We’ll be back soon for lunch and dinner to explore the menu. Already planning some group meals in the near future. Sincerely, Karen & Art (Karts) Huseonica, Sun City, AZ

I sat at the bar and ordered the Reuben based on Denise’s recommendation… I was very satisfied with the sandwich however the fries tasted like they were reheated in a microwave… and they looked so good too! I love my fries crispy and that’s how they appeared but once I picked them up it was a whole different story! Denise’s service was phenomenal and was johnny-​on-​the-​spot if I needed anything. I will be back but next time I will have to try a different side… :/

Yep, this a chain, but the food is consistently great, and I have lived on their French Onion soup and dipped beef sandwiches for over three decades. Clean, happy waitstaff, and attentive service. I wish more chains could follow their model.

Went there for lunch on Labor Day. We weren’t sure what to expect since it was a holiday. Dining room was about half full. We had a short wait only because we wanted a booth. The hostess was pleasant and seated us within five minutes.
It took a bit of time before our server came by for our drink order. She seemed harried and rigid in her demeanor. She brought our drinks, and we ordered. We ordered the Mushroom Brie Burger and the Mediteranean Salad with Roasted Chicken. The food took thirty minutes. During that time she brought a muffin that went with one of the entrees and dressing.
A food runner brought our food. She seemed really rushed. She asked if I wanted pepper on my salad. Put some on until I told her when and off she went. Problem was that my salad was wrong. Our server came by and realized as soon as she saw the salad that it wasn’t the right one. She took it and with apologies said she would have it fixed. She came back shortly with the right one.
The food was good. The burger cooked correctly. The salad was delicious with pieces of artichoke, blue cheese and kalamata olives! Tender slices of chicken on top! The muffin was pumpkin with a crumble crust!
Our server checked back to see how everything tasted. She seemed more relaxed at this point, even chatting with us. The manager came by and also apologized about the salad. He also told us he would take the salad off. We told him that wasn’t necessary, but he insisted.
It started out a bit rough, but ended on a good note. Our server invited us to come back for dinner some time. We were happy with everything! We will be back!

Oh my goodness!
THE BEST breakfast I ever had! The Hickory-​Smoked Ham and Swiss Crepes are to die for! And the White Peach Mimosa was deliciously fantastic!
Friendly, prompt service and nice morning atmosphere added to a great breakfast!

Jamie our waitress is so sweet and attentive, be sure and ask for her.
Stopped in for Lunch and ordered the half sandwich and soup.
Chicken Cordon Bleu with Corn Chowder (Soup was nice and Hot, that is important to me).
Portions were just right, not real large. Fries were homemade and done perfectly.
The establishment is very clean and decorated like a french café, the front looks like a Bistro.
$ 5 a glass house wine from Palm Bay is a super buy

This Mimi’s is the worst. The vibe is as if they are a restaurant in training. My server was nice but slightly flustered.
I ordered the benedict with bacon and tomatoes. When you look at the picture on how it was served it was sloppy and made with no care. Mimi’s has always given some presentation but this was food on a plate.
It looked a mess and then I put my fork in it had egg shells inside. I said to my family I knew this dish looked off when it arrived and now egg shells.
I told my server and she was great about getting me something else and apologizing. So I ordered my next usual the Quiche Lorraine taste great but once again thrown on a plate. Typically its served on lettuce with fruit on a plate. This was not the case.
Low Fat Blueberry muffin was great as always.
This location just didn’t feel welcoming and the experience was subpar, management they need help.
