    Quiche Florentine
    Tony G.

    I stopped in for breakfast and met the most amazing bartender that is so warm and welcoming that she feels like my friend -- Dami. She's so attentive and really kind. I ordered the Quiche Florentine that comes with potatoes. Delivered pretty fast and very tasty. I love the ambiance here as the temp inside is very nice and very relaxing overall. I don't feel rushed and was left alone except for periodic check-ins. A perfect spot to enjoy yourself. Everyone is friendly which is why I continue to return. Thanks so much!

    I was curious about this place after noticing it has nearly as many 1-star reviews as 5-star ones. I ordered the steak and egg sandwich, and it was genuinely above average. The steak was tender, they use grass-fed meat, which is surprisingly hard to find. The eggs were cooked perfectly; honestly, some of the best I've had anywhere. The food also came out right on time. But then the potatoes showed up sad undercooked with a slight bitter taste which I did not enjoy. And also, no condiments, no utensils. You gotta beg like a supplicant just to get a fork and some hot sauce or ketchup. It's the little things that make a difference. Fix those rookie mistakes and this place could actually be the spot. Right now it's teetering on the edge of being worth a damn.

    Service is always amazing. My grandma and I come every Tuesday afternoon and I wouldn't pick any other place. She LOVES the corn chowder, food never goes wrong. Rocio is top notch. Will forever come back as long as we can

    Excellent service and food was absolutely delicious as always. My dad used to take me here and so it was very special to take my nephew here and he loved it!

    I absolutely love coming to Mimi's Cafe. Our team regularly meets here as remote workers, and it's become one of our favorite spots to get work done while also holding productive meetings. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance--comfortable, welcoming, and professional without feeling too formal. What really stands out is the staff. Our waitress is incredibly attentive and kind, always making sure we're taken care of, but she also has a great sense of when to give us space so we can stay focused and productive. That level of awareness is rare and so appreciated. They've also been very accommodating with our group, providing us with a space where we can meet without being in the way, while still feeling part of the warm and friendly environment. It truly makes a difference when you're trying to balance work and collaboration outside of a traditional office. The general manager is just as impressive--professional, approachable, and genuinely committed to creating a great experience for guests. If you're a remote worker or have a team that needs a reliable, comfortable place to meet, I highly recommend this location. It's a hidden gem for productivity and great service all in one.

    Bittersweet return--amazing service, but the food just didn't hit like it used to. My husband and I used to eat at Mimi's Café in Fontana often before COVID, and we had so many good memories here. When we were recently in the area, we decided to stop by and see how it was doing. Seeing that Mimi's had survived the pandemic honestly made us happy--this place felt nostalgic, familiar, and comforting. But unfortunately, that excitement turned into disappointment. We arrived around 11:00 AM, and the restaurant was fairly busy. What really stood out was the server, who was wearing all the hats--hostess, server, and cashier. She was clearly experienced, managing the entire front of house with grace, professionalism, and kindness. Despite the lunch rush, she made sure every guest was greeted and informed ("Just give me a few moments, I'll be right with you")--her service was top-notch and a huge reason this review isn't any lower. The food, however, fell short. My husband ordered the Salmon Benedict I had the Short Rib Benedict Each dish was $19, and sadly, both were under-seasoned. We had to add salt and pepper to even bring the dishes to life. The food was edible, but nothing special--just something to fill our stomachs. Our taste buds were genuinely sad. In today's economy, when every dollar matters, it's frustrating to spend nearly $40 on two plates that felt uninspired. There's too much good food out there to settle for mediocre. We also noticed that the restaurant seems to have become a popular spot for an older demographic. It's a good place for group dining or church gatherings, thanks to its spacious layout. It made me wonder if the food is intentionally toned down in seasoning to suit their core clientele--which is understandable, but disappointing if you're looking for flavor. Bottom line: We were rooting for this place. We really wanted it to be as good as we remembered. The service was truly excellent, and we respect the hustle of the staff--but with prices this high and food this bland, we probably won't be coming back.

    Avacado toast

    My avacado toast was good. Service was good. Vibes were good. Everything was good overall.

    Crab cake egg Benedict

    Food was great! Came in on a Tuesday afternoon and while it was a bit dead (as it typically is), but our server was attentive and sweet. Got a crab cake eggs Benedict; the crab is a little faint but the meal itself was yummy.

    Do they have a room for private parties?

    I’m not a 100% sure on this, but I believe they do. I say this because they have what appears to be a more secluded section that’s separate from their regular dining room area. In my opinion, this space (room) would be ideal for private parties. But…

They have a limited amount of tables, but there is a large couch area for a big group. I also noticed they have a shelf of board games and card games too! It was very cozy in here and the seats are very comfortable. I ordered their Vainilla De Mi Tierra, basically their vanilla latte except they have their own house made syrup. It was light and maintained a balance of vanilla and coffee. It was a nice experience in the coffee shop and I would definitely recommend it if you're in this area!

    Decided to treat myself out to breakfast and dine in at Corky's. When I arrived, there was no line…read more I was greeted by the lady working in the front bakery and was seated immediately. I was probably sitting no more than 3 minutes before the waitress came over to take my order. She was great. She came back two other times to make sure I was good. I ordered the chorizo burrito w/ home fries instead of hash browns and a water because I can't fix myself to pay what they charge anywhere for a soda. The chorizo burrito is simple - eggs, chorizo, home fries, and shredded cheese for $14.19. The presentation of the burrito was a little underwhelming but the burrito was a nice size. It was large enough to share with another person. The home fries inside were ok. They were a little underdone and over seasoned for my liking. Again, that's just me! I know now to get them extra crispy. The chorizo and egg mixture was cooked perfect. The ratio of potatoes, to eggs, to chorizo was a perfect balance. The burrito was also cheesy. I've never had Corky's salsa and I was pleasantly surprised, it had a little kick. It also tasted salty to me but I also don't cook with a lot of salt. My only other critique was the tortilla could've been warmed a little more, not just heated up on the burner. The ambiance here is country kitchen style. They have quite a bit of decor hanging on the walls representing it. This place is pretty large inside and could definitely accommodate a large party. Overall, my dining experience was good and I would come here again for sure.

The menu items are very similar to Rodeo, a mixture of traditional American and Mexican. I ordered the Veggie Omelette my wife couldn't resist and ordered the menudo.
