    My great aunt took me out to l breakfast and I was very impressed. This place is like a Cocoa's but with more quality food and a bigger menu. I ordered the cinnamon roll with bacon and eggs and boy was it delicious. Our waitress was nice, and attentive. Cool mom pop atmosphere diner vibes. The prices are very economical. Great place for family and friends to dine.

    The service was great. This place had the old American diner feel to it. The food was just alright, everything lacked seasoning, unfortunately.

    Came out on a Sunday at 9am. This is a big restaurant, classic Americana vibe, lots of wood paneling. It's near the front of a strip mall so there was plenty of parking. We walked in and the first thing I saw was a glass case with pies (say less). We had 7 of us in total but that early on a Sunday we were seated without wait. We had a nice comfy booth in their side area. There were plenty of booth and tables walking in. The menu is EXTENSIVE. Something for everyone even a kids menu and senior menu. It was hard to make a decision, I almost went with the blintzes but my go to for a first try is usually waffles. We all had coffee and ordered. Staff was very pleasant and we ordered and waited. It wasn't too long of a wait and the our food arrived. They were very good portions and everyone was very happy with their order. I got the waffle combo. My husband got the Millie's plate. Kiddos got pancakes and French toast sticks. Everything had good flavor, if I was in the area again I'd love to stop by to try something else.

    We've been to Millie's a few times, and it never disappoints! This time I got the What a Waffle combo, and my boyfriend ordered the 1/2 salad with ranch and a 1/2 BLT. The food was delicious, it has that cozy, homey flavor that makes you feel like you're eating breakfast at your grandma's house. The waffle was fluffy, buttery, and huge (I could only finish half!), and even the salad was a generous portion for being a half order. Service was great, everyone was friendly and welcoming. We were seated quickly even though it was a busy Sunday morning, and our food came out fast and hot. I also love that they walk around offering refills on coffee, such a nice touch! The diner itself has that old-school, warm, and cozy vibe, and I love that they also have a bakery where you can grab pies, cookies, or cinnamon rolls to go. There's even a cute little corner with Disney-themed trinkets and gifts, which adds to the charm. Prices are fair, especially with how generous the portions are. Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to and recommending to friends!

    I placed a phone order for Mac & Cheese as my daughter suddenly had a craving. I arrived two-minutes later as I happened to be in the area and my order was good to go, wow!! What service. While I was waiting to pay for my order, I looked down and it was at that moment that I knew they had me. The register to pay is surrounded my pies muffins so I ended up paying for my daughter's Mac & Cheese and i picked up a small banana cream pie as well as a banana nut bran muffin for myself. Both desserts were just ok. Employees here are very friendly and ready to serve. Thank you for the GREAT service! My family and I will definitely be back for breakfast very soon

    I live in Marina Del Rey but decided to go to the LA Fair this year so on my way to Pomona I decided to stop in Covina for breakfast. I had already been to most of the others in the area so decided to go with Millie's as I had never been there before. I would classify it as a country diner versus a retro diner. The menu has all sorts of American comfort food classics on it, and few elevated breakfast dishes. Inside is quite large with many different seating options including booths, tables, and counter. Our server was very polite and he mentioned that he was just about to have his seven year anniversary so it's nice to see that this restaurant has a lot of regulars. Service is also really fast, our food came out shortly after ordering it. Parking is also very easy because there is a large free parking lot attached right out front. The food itself was just OK, definitely not bad, but definitely not as good as some breakfast spots here in Santa Monica or MDR. For my meal I chose the California Avocado Omelette and thought it was pretty good, but felt the protein amount was minimal. It's not quite as hardy nor do they have as large portions as some other places close by but I still enjoyed it. I think the pricing was fair and I would stop in again if I'm in the area, although I have had better breakfasts in the Eastern Los Angeles area.

    California omelette: I highly recommend, it was so good!

    This place is always busy so we usually don't have time to dine here. We went on a Monday and it wasn't too busy, steady customers but the service was quick and our coffee was never empty! The food was delicious and so glad we decided to eat here. The restaurant was also very clean.

    What a pleasant surprise to our day. I was expecting this place to be like Dennys, but it felt down home. When we pulled up my wife said surely these cars can't all be for the restaurant, but they were. The place was pretty well packed at 10 AM on a Thursday. Personally, I loved the interior decor. It was Christmas decor and a slice of Americana. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We both enjoyed our meals. Portions were good. The biscuit and gravy were better than average. Bacon was a bit undercooked for my preference. My wife loved the machaca. The home fries were quite good as were the refried beans.

    Cornbread with corn! Butter was creamy.
    Shirley C.

    It's been a long time since we come to Millie's, we almost forgot it exists. The place is so dated but it's kinda comforting too... like home. The table where we sat was the brightest spot with good lighting which I appreciate. Server was good. Food was great. I have the meatloaf. Flavorful. My husband has the fried chicken... that's A LOT of fried chicken. A bit too dry on the chicken thigh. Cornbread was warm and delicious. Nice to have actual corn in the cornbread. Perfect timing that tonight was also the Christmas parade, so after dinner we walked a few blocks to watch the parade. It would be nice if corporate or the owner gave funding to update the place. Everything was beyond worn.

    Is breakfast served through out the day?

    Yes, I had waffles at 10:30 at night. It was delicious. Their omelets were great as well, that's what my parents shared.

I read great reviews on their famous ham jalapeno and cheese croissants plus donuts and cinnamon sugar croissants. I knew I had to swing by to snatch some of that goodness. Didn't want any FOMO in my system LOL. Got here around 9:00 AM. Shop is small with a few tables and chairs. Place was clean. Back area used for storage of inventory. Not too many customers at the time. I probably missed the morning rush. Btw, they only bake donuts once per day. When they run out, that's it! The young lady behind the counter was sweet and friendly. I think her Mom and Dad were in the back helping in the kitchen. Donut selection was pretty standard with raised and cake options. They didn't have a lot left so I just got what they had... alot of twists and rounds! My Order: 3 dozens donuts 1 dozen cinnamon sugar croissants 2 ham jalapeno and cheese croissants Here's my take on the baked goods... Their glazed twist was good, but needs a bit more glaze on top. Chocolate twist had the perfect amount of chocolate on top. Crumble cake donut was very moist and tasty. I preferred it over the crumble raised donut which is a surprise to me because I'm usually for the raised more so than the cake. The highlight was the cinnamon sugar croissants. They were SO GOOD! Light, crispy, and soft in every bite. Tasted like churros. The ladies were so generous to throw in a few cinnamon sugar croissants in each box on the house. Thank you so much for the extra sweet treat! Ham jalapeno and cheese croissants were huge. Cheesy inside with not so hot jalapenos plus delicious ham slices. Croissant was super light and flaky. I enjoyed it, but there was something slightly off with the taste. I can't pinpoint it. If you haven't given Munchkin's a try yet, now is the time to get you some tasty baked goods. Make sure to come early before they sell out! Enjoy your Munchkin's! Btw, there is a credit card service charge so bring CASH if you want to save a little moola.

    I was in the plaza going to another shop and I was intrigued by their window sign of vegan cakes…read moreand Turkish coffee. They also mention they offer gluten free cakes by request. I had to go in and see what this place was about! First off, the man who works there is super friendly. As soon as I walked in, he immediately started showing me everything they had in the store. He told me he was Egyptian and also knew how to say "thank you" in many other languages and proceeded to tell me. He was very charming. Extra star for the super service! There were many varieties of beautiful cakes and cupcakes (vegan and regular), however I didn't need a whole cake, and I didn't see individual slices for sale, so I passed on those. The gentleman had such happy vibes and such pride in his baking that I had to pick up a few things. He said he made the creme brulee and cannoli, so I got those. I also picked up something called a Konafa with custard, as well as a package of baklava. I looked up Konafa to see what it was made of (shredded phyllo dough), and discovered it was something Egyptians ate during Ramadan. How fitting...Today is the first day of Ramadan so I will celebrate in spirit! =) The crème brulee was pretty good, the cannoli was great! I wasn't really a fan of the baklava (it was too hard for me personally) or konafa as both were really dry and tasteless. I am used to baklava being syrupy and sticky and flaky. I feel like I've had konafa before and the shredded phyllo was yellow color and on the crispy side, rather than soft and white. I guess it depends on the style of what country makes it. I was given extra containers of syrup for them, he said in case I wanted it more sweet, but it didn't really help. I'll have to come back and give the cakes a try since it's mainly a cake shop. I'd love to try their gluten free cakes for my son. I'm not vegan, but for those of you who are, this is an option for you!

It's better to come in during the morning because by afternoon, there is a good chance you will see a fly in the glass casing touching all the pastries. Yikes! It's happened on multiple instances. Also, employees do not use gloves when handling pastries whether that be from putting your pastries in bags at checkout, warming it up for you, or bagging individual pastries to be put on shelves. No gloves used. Now for the poor customer service and management.. I believe the unprofessional customer service stems from untrained management as employees are often frazzled and seem clueless on effective time management. If there's more than 2 customers in line, employees suddenly don't know what to do. They go from taking an order to ignoring the next customer in line to go make drinks for 5 minutes then come back. Then while waiting for drinks, people who ordered drinks after me got theirs first. I want to call out two specific employees (1 male with ear piercings and 1 female) on Sunday morning 04/26/26. There was no one else behind me as I ordered 2 drinks one being a frappe. They were conversing the whole time which I don't mind but it hindered and slowed down the timing in making my drinks. While the girl was making my frappe and pouring it in the cup, she STOPPED AND PAUSED TO CONTINUE HER CONVERSATION. while we were standing there just waiting. It's just extremely unprofessional. Also might be a management issue to have poorly trained team members as employees don't seem to stay for long.
