This place is a hole in the wall well known by Taiwanese locals. The owner is the sweetest lady and takes care of her customers well (really prioritizes customer satisfaction, etc). The food is great (4.5/5) and the portion sizes are really great. If you're looking for a good plate of Taiwanese food, look no further. Just look at that plate of fried popcorn chicken! read more

Mimi 5 Bobee - Taiwanese Near Me - Diamond Bar, California

Came around 2PM and the restaurant wasn't packed at all, lots of seating available. There is plenty of parking in the plaza and it's right next door to Pho Super Bowl. Ordered a beef noodle soup with wide noodles and it was super yummy! The soup is very flavorful with tender pieces of beef. I really like the option, where you're able to choose no meat, all meat, with both beef and tendon, or all tendon. I like that the food came piping hot too. Love the popcorn chicken here too, super crispy and tender on the inside. Ordered a Jasmine Green Milk Tea with boba and it was pretty good. The jasmine wasn't too noticeable in the drink, but had a good milk to tea ratio. The boba was super chewy but it wasn't sweet at all. Overall, really enjoyed my meal here and would love to come back for more! :) read more

This place is okay. Foods are a bit tasteless but salty. I guess you get what you pay for? The staffs there are friendly but the food just doesn't hit my plate. I think I will pass. sorry. read more

Really enjoyed this place. Ordered lunch special-- combo A and combo C. Everything is simple but well executed. Also loved the drinks that came with the meal. Price is also very reasonable for what's served. Boba milk tea was also good. Cute little place and nice ambiance. Place is nice and clean. Server is super nice and sweet. Will be coming back again! read more

Love their 4 ingredient and pork stomach hotpot soup and stinky tofu with pickled vegetable. And the price is still pretty reasonable. read more

Mimi 5 Bobee has improved a lot since my last review. They not have an online ordering system, which is nice because they'll text you when your order is ready for pick up. My office is 8 minutes away so it's convenient to pick up and avoid the lunchtime craziness. It can get pretty hectic here if you are walking in to order. There is usually always a line and wait can be a while. The food is always a hit, my go-to orders are either tomato beef (1/2 beef, 1/2 tendon) noodle soup or the Combo C with popcorn chicken. Combo C is nice because it comes with a free drink, either green tea or wintermelon tea. You can add the cold cut salad (+$1.50) to Combo C if you like and I do recommend! The cold cut salad is a kelp salad with marinated pig ears - sounds weird but trust me its so good! If you dine in, service is average and ambiance is loud, hectic. The space is small so you have wait staff running back and forth while you try to enjoy your meal. I prefer take-out so I can eat in peace. The parking lot here can get quite busy since it's shared with a pho restaurant and East West Bank. read more

Love love love this place! So close to home and always provides delicious food!! They are always so nice and I love how friendly all of the ladies are. Some of my favorites are the Fried Pork Chop w/ Rice, Red Grain Pork w/Rice, Tomato Beef Noodle Soup, and the DanDan Noodles. Such a classic taiwanese place that is my go-to! read more

Mimi's house is one of the few authentic Taiwanese food joints left around the area. Mimi serves great tomato beef noodle soup (best in the area in my opinion), and also has a wide array of creative drinks and appetizer dishes. I love the stinky tofu there as well. Their rice dishes are prepared authentically and are always savory and delicious. They also serve the Fu Chow fish balls which is a speciality food that not many people make. I also like their lunch special where they provide a variety of combos to choose from. Definitely will visit whenever I am around the area. read more

The popcorn chicken here is sooo good. The portions are generous and the service ice is great. Not gonna lie, but I've always walked by this restaurant and thought it www just another boba spot. Was craving popcorn chicken and the first place we went to didn't have a full on meal just ""snack" size, so the search continued. Came across this spot and boom I'll definitely be back again! read more

fried porkchop is the best outside of taiwan! highly recommend. its perfectly crispy and juicy, with yummy sides in the bento. really authentic taiwanese food, feels like home :) read more

Here is what I ordered for take out: 1) Tomato Beef Noodle Soup ( Half & Half) 4.5/5 2) Popcorn Chicken 4.3 3) Winter Melon Black Tea w/ Grass Jelly 3.5/5 4) Black Tea 4/5 Beverage: Overall the beverages were not as sweet as other popular boba franchises and you could really taste the tea. One note that I do have was that the grass jelly itself was a little bellow average. Regardless of that one comment, the teas were pretty solid and I look forward to revising my reviews on their tea as I visit more often. Food: The food is good. I personally had the tomato beef noodle soup and I was pleasantly surprised at the different spices in the broth of soup. There was also a sweet tart flavor present within the soup. I should have gotten the handmade noodles because the wide noodles did not hit as well as the soup did. The popcorn chicken is solid. It was unfortunate that I was not able to indulge in the popcorn chicken while it was freshly fried. Nonetheless, the flavors in the popcorn chicken were good. TLDR: Food is good and would want to eat fresh. Beverages not too sweet and have a good tea flavor. Would try to eat things at restaurant next time to preserve freshness. read more

I saw recommendations about Mimi 5 Bobee from this Taiwanese Facebook group that talks about eating around in Southern CA and so my wife and I have this restaurant in mind for a while. Recently it just happened that we are making a trip from OC to Rowland Heights area so we decided to try this place even during Covid time so we had to eat in our car. We ordered the Lu Rou Fan and Porkchop over rice and they are awesome. The taste of the five spice is perfect in both dishes and it really reminds me of Taiwan. I highly recommend trying this place out if you haven't. read more

Located in Diamond Bar this small place is a local favorite with such a variety of menu items that you could probably eat here for lunch and dinner for a whole month to try each food item here! Lunch special 11:00-3:00 pm you can choose from different combos or you can just order from their regular menu. My favorite thing to get is pork chop rice. It's deep fried and my other favorite which is also deep fried is pop corn chicken. You can tell the lady if you would like it less spicy or add more spicy flavor to it. They have a daily drink special where you buy a large drink and get the same large drink for free. Just ordered a watermelon one which was for today's drink special and it taste so good! Love the aloe bits inside that are on the bottom. It's not sweet and it's just juice! Some days though I don't really want the drink special because it's just not what I like. read more

Great Taiwanese food and service. I recommend the spicy fried chicken rice, mimi bobee marinated pork chop rice/noodle, stinky tofu, tomato beef noodle. The portions are great for sharing. The best is there is online ordering. read more

I tried to order food to go around 7:05pm, and the lady said our kitchen is close, I asked what times your kitchen close, she kept saying I don't know and hanged up my phone. WTH?????????? The WORST server I have never experienced. read more

Pretty awesome stewed pork with my favorite type of rice http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/LW2xvzwXQvL15BPsTM9qqw?select=3n6KAoqjp0g7wy40q0HYbA. It comes with bamboo strips, half a hard boiled soy sauce egg, and some green onion sprinkled on top. You can get this as a Combo for $7, which includes a small cup of their house salad and green/black tea. Alone it's $5. Not too shabby. I've also had their honey dew melon slush (mehh...), honey green tea (okay), black tea (okay), mild popcorn chicken (OMG their mild was still so spicy!), and garlic chicken (be wary if you expect this to be a warm dish because it's not! It was a bit unpleasant, but I drenched it in their garlic sauce and it made the chicken a tad bit better). Service can improve though. I felt unwelcomed a couple of times. I will come back for their stewed pork dish though. read more

Mimi 5 Bobee - Stewed pork with rice - Taiwanese Near Me - Diamond Bar, California

Mimi is a mom and pop shop that has a great variety of drinks and deals every day! I got the molasses milk tea with pudding and it was a buy 1 get 1 free. I love their drinks because They are not too sweet at all. The only reason why I gave them four and not five stars is that the employees can come off a bit unfriendly at times. There is also a $15 minimum or buy two orders to use a credit or debit card. Overall I do like the little shop and there are variety of drinks that they offer. read more

The hours is shorter during COVID. The beef stew noodle soup flavor is great with their *手工* noodles... The price has gone up though...a small package of chilled item cost about $8.95...(涼拌黑木耳芹菜）so the price has gone up a bit during COVID. The taste is still great though. read more

The food is horrible... the service is good though Ordered for the first time but sorry won't give it another try, and not cheap for the orders either. read more

I live in diamond bar so it' my go to place when I'm lazy and craving a pork chop rice. I usually get their combo c which is the porkchop rice w a drink. The rice comes w two sides, an egg, rice, porkchops and a soup or salad. Total was around $11. Since I didn't finish my draft last time, I would like to add that their popcorn chicken is totally worth it. I ordered it for to go and it came out to be $7.07. Doesnt sound cheap but they give you a shit ton. They bag was full to the top read more

I kept wanting to try this place out after passing by it several times to eat at Pho Super Bowl. The inside decor is nice and clean. We went around 1pm and it was still busy. Service was a little slow but the waiter (the only one present at the time) was nice and we did get our food pretty quick once we got our order in. I had the Stewed Chicken Leg w/ Rice and I thought it was very yummy. I tend to never eat till I am full (80% rule) but I felt the portion was just right as I finished the entire plate (minus the rice). The Stewed chicken itself was very tender and flavorful and the meat sauce on top of the rice was really good. My friends got the popcorn chicken (very spicy...though it tasted like medium to me), and the meat balls. The meat balls was very soft/tender. It was a good but a little salty for me. I did not leave feeling sleeping, heavy, or thirsty so I would definitely come back here again. They have a variety of drinks that I have yet to try! read more

Has been customer for this place for many years. However, I encountered one of my worst customer service attitude from one of its employee this morning. I placed my walked in to-go order at 11:10am and waited for my order - two rice dishes and two noodle dishes. In a few mins I could see that another to-go order was ready and placed on the counter ready for pickup. And shortly afterwards the lady who ordered after me received her order and left. At 11:25am, I asked the male server requesting the status of my order...he told me that they were still cooking the beef for my noodle....at 11:32am, I asked another female server about my order and she simply brush me off by stating there are other order in front of me in a very rude manner. I did not appreciate this attitude and demand to cancel my noodle order. The boss came up to apologize but I insisted on canceling my order and asking for my refund. That female server could be in a bad mode or she might be the boss's wife. Will not return to this place again. read more

Ordered stewed combo, Taiwanese dry noodle , stinky tofu, stewed pork chop , all dishes were very disappointed, especially the stewed combo, looked like just defrosted food mixed and served flavorless. Stinky tofu were bland and expensive, almost 1$ per piece. The dry noodle is miniature portion, you can finished in three bites . In Eastside LA Chinese restaurants are very competitive, so if you are not ready please don't sever to your customers. read more

Beef noodle soup is the bomb... authentic and tasty. A must try! You can't go wrong. AA++

Legit Taiwanese spot. Some reviews were saying it's not authentic compare to Taiwan.. i think it's pretty authentic, especially for being in the US. You can't compare food out here to the actual food in Taiwan. Nothing will meet the standard. Even dingtaifung is better out in Taiwan, as popular as it is out here already. The beef noodle soup is good and legit, the appetizers are bomb, the portion size for its price is the only complaint I have here. Def not the cheapest and the portion is pretty small. read more

Awesome honest Taiwanese food. I love it very much. Highly recommended if you are in the area.

Food poisoning! Vomiting! This is what happened to my wife on 3/10/22-3/11/22. We've been eating here since 2015 and never had this happen. I hope the owner sees this review so they're aware. Unfortunately we can't eat here anymore. By the way she ordered the popcorn chicken lunch special and meatball, with their lychee green tea with lychee jelly so be careful! read more

So much yumminess (is this even a word? Lol) in this restaurant. Come early, otherwise you will hit long of a wait. If you like stinky tofu...they have it. And just get ready to go out from there a little stinky :) read more

Food is ok. No comment on the service. Came here with my sisters for a little talk about life before going shopping for our Halloween costumes. We ordered: popcorn chicken dry noodle, garlic chicken with rice, and taiwanese sausage with rice. Popcorn chicken is too greasy! Dry noodle part was ok, nothing special. Totally disliked the garlic chicken. Nothing interesting to say about the sausage. I think the best part about the meal was the lightly sauteed cabbage served alongside the main meal...and catching up with my sisters probably made the experience better. Regardless, I might return to try out some other dishes since my older sister says the place is pretty good in general. Guess it was just this certain experience that wasn't that great. read more

Little hangout place in Diamond Bar. I get take out, don't understand what they say most of the times, so I don't eat there... but doesn't mean they are less courteous. The food is fresh and the teas are yummy. They have a special on teas every day. Buy one get one free or free upgrade. My fav is the spicy popcorn chicken... Is crispy and savory. read more

Authentic Taiwanese food. Personally I like this location the most because they are always friendly to customers. If you like the taste I'd Taiwanese food, stop by when you are close to it. They have a everyday menu, check with them for some new stuff you might be surprised. read more

Placed my first order online, and they forgot one of the dishes. Angela addressed my concern immediately, and told me to come back another time to get it. She also gave me a free drink. 5 star for customer service! While it's not authentic Taiwanese food, it does not taste bad either. Love the wonton dumplings, cold noodle was good as well. Can't complain too much about it. Definitely not a place to get drinks. read more

Good food, great people working there. Feels like home every time visiting this restaurant. Beef noodle soup is a given. The Mimi style pork chop rice are good and their stinky tofu is surprisingly good. read more

I grew up eating Taiwanese food and absolutely love it, but this place is simply not good. The lunch combinations seem enticing at first glance, but they're actually a ripoff, which is surprising to say, considering most Chinese cafes are usually relatively inexpensive. We ordered the lunch combination "A," which only came with a few pieces of tofu, a green or black tea, and a small bowl of dry noodles with vinegar and nothing else! We also tried the lunch combination "C," which was basically just a small side of pork chops, plus a bowl of noodles in soup with a few bean sprouts. It also came with a green or black tea, as well as a side salad that was basically just a few pieces of dry shredded cabbage. Overall, the food is really disappointing here and the prices are unreasonable, considering how small the portion sizes are and how bland the food tastes. I would much rather drive a few extra miles to eat at any other Chinese cafe in Rowland Heights because I'm confident the food would be much more affordable, authentic, and probably taste a lot better than the food here. read more
