    Interior space

    Ok, I hate to admit this but I haven't been here in decades. The interior seemed different, and more spacious, which was nice. The service was excellent. As for the food, I enjoyed my chorizo omelet. Now although I don't frequent the area, it was a nice treat taking my mom out for brunch. Enjoy.....

    A group of us dined at Mimi's. We arrived at different times. The waiter did a good job of getting our orders and was nice enough to split the checks. I had the meatloaf and a cup of corn chowder which was very good. I'd order that again. My bf had the pot roast. It must've been good. There was nothing left on his plate. We shared a toffee cake dessert. It was yummy. The room temperature was quite comfortable. It was nice to eat where we didn't have to yell to hear each other.

    Their online reservation system via G Maps is malformed.

    Likes: + Great service. Polite, helpful staff. William did a wonderful job tending to me. + Variety of meals to choose from. + Pleasant ambience. + Multiple restroom stalls per gender. + Plenty of parking. . The food's okay. Not delicious, but not bad. . As for the jambalaya, half way through my meal my appetite went away. The food wasn't delicious, so I had to force myself to finish it without enjoying it. . I'm iffy about whether the meal was a little pricey. For 3 courses, $30 isn't bad. I enjoyed soup with bread, a variety of protein with pasta, and an ice cream dessert with a lil fruit. Maybe it should've been closer to $25. Non-likes: - They forget to bring out utensils before or with the meal. - I prefer the napkins readily available at the table. I had: $30 3-course menu: Soup (French onion) + Jambalaya + Molten lava cake + Triple berry lemonade + tax + tip = $41

    We were happy to know they had Bloody Mary's. Weren't the best but it served its purpose. First time at a Mimi's. Service was great. Staff were beyond nice and attentive and friendly. Restaurant was very clean. Restrooms were clean. Lots of seating. I liked that there were different room areas. There were TVs. A bar area is located inside. Lots of variety of food to choose from. Lots of parking.

    Is there a cost to reserve room for private brunch?

    45 minute wait for a check to long?

    Omg I just left there 10 min ago because it took over 25 minutes for him to ask for my order. All I ordered was a soda and apple juice and left cause it took way too long. I didn't even pay.

I went for my usual: a glazed blueberry donut, the works breakfast burrito, and fresh squeezed orange juice. The burrito is massive and kept me full all day, and the salsa adds the perfect kick. The donut was sweet, fluffy, and exactly what I needed to start the morning right. The orange juice had a bit more pulp than I like, which is funny because I usually love pulp, but it was still fresh and delicious. Staff were friendly and welcoming, the space was clean, and they even have a few spots that are perfect for photos if you're feeling social media vibes. Breakfast here is always a treat. Highly recommend if you're nearby--this place is still top notch.

As a local resident in Fountain Valley, I usually enjoy supporting local businesses. However, being treated with such poor customer service, despite paying a tip, left me feeling very disappointed and undervalued as a customer. I believe that basic courtesy is a vital part of any service industry. I hope management can address this issue so that other customers do not have to leave feeling the way I did today.

Parking is shared with nearby businesses, but there were plenty of spots. The dining area has lots of tables, though it's a little tight on space. The staff were friendly, attentive, and helpful throughout. The food was delicious across the board. I ordered the Molcajete, which came loaded with refried beans, chorizo, avocado, potatoes, a sunny side up egg, carne asada, grilled slice of cheese, and pickled purple onions. The portions were huge -- I couldn't finish mine. The meat was tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned. I added shrimp for a little extra and it was absolutely worth it. Others at the table ordered the chilaquiles, which come in red, green, or a combo, and can be customized with chorizo, short rib, or other proteins. The feedback was positive, though the portion size looked a bit small compared to other dishes. The very berry French toast was a hit with my daughter. She loved the sauce -- flavorful but not too sweet -- and the bread was perfectly toasted on the outside with a soft center. The burritos were generously sized. The surf and turf stood out, with perfectly cooked shrimp and meat. The sauce had a bit more kick than expected, but it was delicious overall. The carne asada fries were also a great size, with fresh, quality ingredients and great flavor. A few things to note: there are no fountain drinks, and the agua frescas don't come with refills. The menu has a great selection of Mexican-inspired café drinks -- café de olla, Mexican hot chocolate, lattes, and more.

We started with the Beef Carpaccio with Arugula Salad and the Truffle Cheese Bread, both of which were excellent appetizers and set the tone for a wonderful meal. For our entrées, we ordered the Seafood Mafaldine, Branzino Piccata, and Braised Short Rib. The standout for me was the Braised Short Rib--tender, slow-cooked to perfection, and paired with creamy garlic mashed potatoes that had the perfect texture. The Seafood Mafaldine was equally impressive, with a rich, flavorful sauce that was simply heavenly. The combination of Italian and Japanese influences created a unique and comforting dining experience. Great food, wonderful company, and an enjoyable atmosphere made for an awesome night out.

I did not do any research prior to going here, I know menus change and I just wanted to take it all in. When we arrived it wasn't super busy, the place itself was big, bright, and inviting. The lady who took our order was super nice. I even went back in line to order additional items... We tried: 1. Longanisa burrito: This was surprisingly meaty and not all egg like some places. It was juicy and flavorful. 2. Waffle fries: I don't know why I was originally thinking french toast sticks, but this went perfect with the burrito. 3. Salted cream Vietnamese coffee: Perfect pick me up and it tasted freshly brewed like a pour over 4. Classic egg sando: My cousin and I made room for this fluffy goodness. I've always watched people eating egg sandos on social media and I have yet to try one like this. This was a perfect balance of egg salad ans bread. 5. Corn cheese cookie : I figured my cousin would like this, but I was surprised how you could taste the corn cheese in it. It was consistent throughout. 6. Matcha white chocolate cookie: This one was my favorite. Perfect balance of matcha with the sweetness of white chocolate. 7. Strawberries & Cream cookie: I was surprised that this wasn't overly sweet. 8. Walnut Chocolate Cookie: The walnuts gave the cookie a crunch and balanced out the chocolate goodness. Overall, everything we tried was amazing and I can't wait to come back soon and try the other items they have. I highly recommend this place, and suggest coming early.

It was around $8, and I wish there had been a little more of it. I also couldn't pass up the Corn Cheese Cookie since I'd never eaten one before. It was surprisingly delicious. The corn flavor really came through, and the cheese reminded me of the sweet cream cheese filling you'd find in a cheese Danish. My only complaints was, once again, the size. It disappeared way too quickly. Overall, this is a great spot for unique coffee drinks and tasty pastries. I just wish the portions were a little more generous for the price.
