I really like this place for breakfast and brunch! I've never had lunch so I can't comment on that. They always have fresh coffee cake and coffee waiting at the door for you. The food was excellent. It is NOT healthy but soooo good. My mom loved it. I got the pancakes and they were soft and fluffy. Mom got salmon Benedict. read more

Hello from Norma Y., The Diet Diva, I went to eat at Mimi's Cafe. I ate their Protein Breakfast. It consists of a turkey patty with egg whites. I had salsa on the side. I ordered a small orange juice. The Protein Breakfast was 406 calories and the OJ had 96 calories. I love being able to eat at restaurants that have a variety of selections for people trying to lose or maintain their weight. I was Morbidly Obese with a BMI of 56. I have lost over 100 pounds. I enjoy eating out in a restaurant that has great food, nice ambiance and good prices. read more

Love, love, love this place. Food was delivered quickly, our server, Catherine, was very attentive and super nice, and we had been sat almost immediately on a busy Sunday morning. I've been coming to Mimi's for a long long time and they have never left me disappointed or dissatisfied. Overall great location, service, and food! read more

We just love eating at Mimi's Cafe in Glendale. You feel like you are eating in someone's kitchen the place is so cozy. The food is delicious and they have added new items to the menu. The waitstaff is warm and welcoming. If you want a little piece of Paris in Arizona come to Mimi's for the food and atmosphere. My chicken crepes were delicious and my husband really enjoyed his pot roast dinner. Plenty of space for a wheelchair at the table!! Can't wait to go back for the yummy bread basket!!

We arrived for our reservation at 7:15pm. They seated us right on time. The resturant was fairly loud at first but once the family dinner croed cleared out at 7:30pm it quieted down. The food and service was outstanding, and at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend Mimi's very a late dinner. read more

Love Mimi's! Great selection on the menu; delicious food; good service... what's not to like?! Mimosas are delicious; great quiches and other breakfast items; great lunch and dinner choices i.e. chicken pot pie; good selection of salads; roast beef; hamburgers, etc. Plus, it's reasonably priced. Convenient location. Love Mimi's! read more

My server Rachael was phenomenal! She is so on top of everything and was happy to be there for the customer! 10/10 would recommend!

It's been month's since we stopped going to the Mimi's in Glendale, AZ. I still read the reviews and it seems like they haven't improved- I keep hoping they will go back to their previous good food and service; but it looks like they're not!!! I sure hope they do!!! read more

We have eaten here twice, for lunch. The first time I had the 1/2 French dip and my Mom had the fish and chips. The French dip was really good, tender beef and not at all salty on the dip. My Mom's fish and chips were really good too. 4 pieces of fish, light crisp batter and the hand cut fries! Yum! The next time we I had the pot roast, very good, mashed potatoes and sautéed spinach. The spinach was cooked to the right temperature, not too wilted. A couple of setbacks but all were addressed promptly and corrected. Terrible coleslaw, cold fries and cold au jus. Mimi's deserves more than 3 stars. Get the coupon on Facebook. But one entree get one free. A good deal considering it's a bit pricey for lunch read more

Just came here last weekend. Ordered eggs Benedict it was delicious. Service was good even though it was busy.

Christin was wonderful, she keep her cool with customer that keep giving her a hard time. I felt bad just listening to them complaining about everything. I enjoyed my breakfast it was definitely delicious. Thank you for our great service. If you come here please ask for Christin. We will be back read more

Went this morning with my wife as I had received a buy one entree and get a second free. Service was so so and the meal was okay. The bad part was for one omelete and 2 coffees, the bill was $20. It is way too expensive for that. Not going back there again. read more

Breakfast was delicious and waitress was awesome I had the steak and eggs. Food came fast and hot. First time coming but I will definitely return read more

Great service, but the food was horrible, hands down the worst over cooked pancakes, soft microwaved bacon served with runny scrambled eggs, topped off by cold coffee, the server was amazing and was very friendly and accommodating read more

It was my day off with the family and we always go out . Well wife wanted to go to mimis because she had previously been there and wanted to try again. Long story short, unless your old or look like you have money don't expect much. I'm a mechanic and felt judged due to my day off clothes and sat with menus for over 10 minutes.. NO they were not slammed nor busy... it's sad I have to write A bad review but I will never go back there again.. read more

I scheduled a luncheon today, Jan 9, 2019 for 14 women. The food was very good. No complaints about that. We had an excellent waitress who was trying her best to service 14 people plus several other tables. There should have been 2 waitresses serving 14+ people with individual checks. The restaurant knew more than a week in advance of this group and it was not staffed to handle it. We were there for almost 3 hours. I will never bring another group to Mimi's. read more

a lot of tacky decor a lot of average wait help a lot of messiness in the bathroom a lot a lot of very average food and... a lot of old people read more

Just went to this Mimi's café with my husband we were very disappointed mostly in the skewers at what was advertised to be beef but just turned out to be ground beef which fell off the skewer as soon as we picked it up. The worst part was probably the fact that our server never gave us our change we waited for several minutes, much longer than necessary the server repeatedly ignored us as she had during the entire time (only stopping to check on us once) and then KEPT the change!!! We paid cash. She never brought us the change OR our receipt. Oh well - hope that "tip" was worth it for her. Never giving us our change??? Seriously??? The food was okay and would have received an average review. But that was just not ok. read more

This one made my list of worst service experiences, without a doubt. It's a shame too, because our first visit was great, but the second a few week later? Total opposite. So bad, in fact, that it more than offset the earlier visit. So what happened? Well, first we showed up late, say around 8pm, to get some dinner. I was hoping for the "all day breakfast" selection that they have, but as soon as I cracked open the menu I was horribly disappointed to find out that it was no longer there. Instead, I settled on their seasonal three-course meal thing, where you get a soup, a main course and a mini-dessert. Sounded practical and looked better than the other menu offers (I couldn't find anything else I was remotely interested in, having sat down with a breakfast craving). My wife opted for a barbeque burger, she had no intention of going the breakfast route so the menu change was of no consequence to her. So the food arrives, first the bread basket and my soup. The bread was so/so, but the french rolls that came as part of it were warm on the outside and ice cold on the inside. Obviously didn't heat these babies up enough after they came out of the freezer. Nothing worse than biting into warm bread and finding it still frozen inside, or so I thought. Then I tried the soup, which was supposed to be a tomato basil bisque. I kept thinking to myself that it felt a little too hot, but couldn't tell at first it was temperature hot or spicy hot. Turned out upon closer inspection, there are flakes of chili pepper floating in there, green and red ones. What in the holy heck? Who makes spicy tomato soup? It was absolutely revolting and I didn't eat anymore of it, leaving it at least 3/4 full for the server when she returned. She offered to bring something else, but I was afraid of how they would have butchered the other soups, so I opted to save my now waning appetite for the main course. Main course arrives, chicken with mushroom sauce. Tastes OK but not great. I notice the plate, however, is dirty underneath on all four sides, and not recently either. It was dried, caked on food stains, at least a day old. Really made me question whether or not I should have eaten the food on the top side of the plate. I don't know how the server didn't feel it when she brought the plate out, it was all over the bottom and there was no way to miss it unless you were just plain clueless. I picked it up the second I touched the plate to move it, which is why I looked underneath to see what was going on. As for my wife, her burger was OK but not great either. When she got towards the center, it was still very pink, despite asking for well done. That was a deal breaker for her, so she didn't finish the other half of it. Dessert was another lesson in disgusting food. The bread pudding dish was basically a soggy, nasty piece of what used to be bread, floating in this ridiculously sweet, bright yellow sauce that only vaguely tasted like butterscotch or something. I have no idea what it was, but it was horrible. We didn't even put a dent in that thing, not even a full bite. Naturally, our server was completely clueless. No attention to the half eaten burger, the dessert that was nibbled and left for dead, or the general unhappiness at our table. When she returned with the bill for me to leave my tip and sign the receipt, she capped off our wonderful experience by giving me a pen that had been completely destroyed. There was ink all over it and, what's worse, it wouldn't write even when I tried to use it in a desperate attempt to just end the experience and get out of there. I waited a full ten minutes and watched her and several other servers and their manager ignore us completely, never coming back to see why we hadn't left or signed the check or anything. I ended up having to ask the girl at the front of the restaurant, who was cleaning, if I could get a pen from her since our server never came back and I wanted to sign the receipt. With no apology and no effort to find the server or a manager she gave me a pen and I promptly scratch out a less than generous tip and returned her pen to walk out. Icing on the cake? She asked my wife and I how everything was. I told her it was "okay, I guess" and she asks what happened. I told her that, as I had just said, our server gave me a broken, leaking pen and never returned for 10 minutes or more so I had to get up and go find a pen to sign the check with. She didn't make any sincere apology and let us walk away. Absolutely ridiculous service, ruined soup, ice cold bread, undercooked burger, dirty plates, regurgitated dog-food dessert and then a yucky, leaking, non-functional pen to sign the receipt with? Are you kidding me? This one definitely makes my list of horrific restaurant experience for the year. I am never going back to this place. read more

awesome service, great food. Buffy was an amazing server!!

Beverley was a fantastic server, will always come for the five dollar mimosas and buttery muffins!

my friend and I always liked Mimi's... until they started changing so much...My husband and I used to go there/now he won't go back...They remove great food items from the menu...The fish and fries are gone,the crepes are gone,the pot pies are gone,the bouillonbase soup is gone,the bread baskets are gone,the Quiche is totally different...you pay a price for the quiche,another price for the muffin,another price for the salad....and ...when you order a salad as an entrée ..there is no muffin anymore with it. Today our coffee was stale/cold! she finally made another pot,so we did get one cup of good coffee also everyone is required to buy 2 beverages(whether we want to or not/can't just order water only... to get our free $10.99 2nd entree,and we don't get water unless we ask for it...the salad (that was removed from the quiche lunch... we had to order as a side was not real fresh/we had to ask for dressing to go it...Over-all my excitement at Mimi's is gone/my friend was totally disappointed this day ...she was looking forward to a great Quiche ,muffin, bread ,salad /coffee .. read more

We love this Mimi's location. We have been coming here for a number of years. The staff is some of the best around! The food is always hot and delicious. Nice and relaxing after a day at the office. read more

I have seen this location go downhill. We keep going back thinking that it will be better than the last time, but it's not. It has a rundown feel to it. It's not that the decor is bad, it's pretty new, it's the service and the attitude of the staff that is rundown. Despite the food being good, the service really has deteriorated and the management doesn't seem to have noticed, or even care. Everything is now an extra, 50c there, $1 there, portions are smaller, and it all mounts up. The entrees are already just under $10 for many things. It's not THAT good that I would pay much more for what they are offering. So, it's goodbye Mimi's, it was good while it lasted, but I am done! read more

I love this establishment. Great service and food. Nice ambience. Nice meal selections. My waitress Myra was very nice and accommodating. And she let me dine in peace which is a plus for me because often times when I dine at other establishments, the waitstaff checks on my table too frequently, Thus not giving me time to enjoy my meal and experience. Myra was very gracious and gave me space and time to dine and enjoy my meal. For my entrée, I had the quiche Florentine with House salad, Walnut spice muffin and strawberry lemonade. Everything was delicious and wonderfully presented. read more

I really don't know what to say about Mimi's café other than Bad bad bad it took me over eight minutes to put in a drink water and then I asked for a simple thing ice tea you would think this would be easy unfortunately they serve me sweet tea Needless to say I sent it back 10 minutes later my tea arrive knowing that I ordered iced tea you would think that the waitress would not serve me hot tea but I was served Hot tea this may be a great restaurant for someone in Sun City this looking for a hot cup of tea and a egg white omelette because that seemed to be exactly who was there and may God love them but I don't like hot tea that is why I ask for iced tea anyway I just wanted to paying my check and Run read more

Great food, passed my expectations. Good coffee and pastries as well, and the server was nice. Cozy clean environment, felt like a little taste of France. read more

Mimi's is slipping in quality. The grilled chicken tasted like it was done on a George Forman grill. Very tough. The other meals by our party were at least edible, but come on, I go out to get something better than what I can heat up at home in the microwave. read more

Met others for lunch on a Monday. Not busy, seated quickly. I ordered the sandwich listed as "Avocado and Tomato" . If you are going to list Avocado as the first item of the sandwich, I would think there would be more than 2 thin thin slivers of it on the roll. Literally was maybe, just maybe 1/8th of a small avocado on it, I had looked prior to eating it. Very disappointed, and had I not been with co worker and her mother, I would have sent it back right then. Cream cheese on it, not spread on it, but a huge chunk that was sliced off of a block. It should have been called "Cream Cheese Sandwich" instead, as this item dominated the entire sandwich. This is the second time I have eaten here. The first was a tuna sandwich that was dripping with watery juice, making the bread all soggy. Will not be returning. Do not get what you pay for in my opinion, read more

Although this location is ALWAYS busy, there is a reason for it. Good food, good staff, great location. Always have a great time and great food when we visit. The General Manager Bianca is great, very personable and makes things great. Check ou r5 this location read more

The one star I gave is strictly for the kind waitress who took our order. Otherwise,what an experience. I took my sister to Mimi's on Bell road yesterday. I was told it would be 10-15 minutes before we got seated - It was 1:15 pm and there was hardly anyone there! I asked to sit in the main room and mentioned "nobody's in there"...I was told, "they're starting to fill it up now. Finally after being seated, we ordered the same thing - the "Mozzarella and tomato" salad. The salads came with a honey muffin. The service was excellent - attentive and caring. Kudos to the kind lady who waited on us. Within 2-3 hours after returning home, I became violently ill. I got the chills and started to shake so badly. And then, the nausea and vomiting started - lasting until almost midnight. I also ran a 102 fever. I called my sister this morning and asked her if she had gotten sick. YES, she had! Coincidence? I don't think so. I called the restaurant this morning and was given to the "District Manager". I don't believe he could have cared less. He told me "nobody else got sick from that meal yesterday" - I said, well, my sister and I did" ... silence from this man. While we were eating, there was no one left in the restaurant. He asked me how soon after we ate did we experience symptoms. I replied 2+hours. He came back with "well, if it was food poisoning, that usually takes 4 hours". Since I had the food poisoning website pulled up on my computer - it shows that anywhere from 2-6 hours after you eat, you experience the symptoms of food poisoning". Again, silence. I asked what is the recourse, he said he'd file a claim and I'd probably be hearing from someone from corporate. No "I'm sorry, you got sick, or I hope you come back" or anything that remotely resembled compassion. Needless to say, I will never return nor bring guests to that Mimi's again. read more

Had Breakfast with Friends. I had the Bananas Foster waffle. the waffel itself was good. For the ridiculous price I was disappointed to find they don't serve real maple syrup. Basically corn syrup. Asked for lemon in my water (to help with the twist of our awfully AZ water) I had to ask a second time and then when asked if we want coffee my friend said no and she started to walk away before I could say yes. She then proceeded to the kitchen saying she would be back...5min later came back to fill my coffee. $32 is a lot for 2 breakfasts. read more

We stopped in for breakfast at 10:30 am at the Bell Road location our server was Beverley. She was more than pleasant and extremely efficient we had two coupons one for a birthday breakfast muffin and the other was for a buy one entree' and get one free.The manager stopped by our table and told us we could use them both! read more

The wait was long and my soup was cold. The cappuccino was alright. Everything on the "light" menu has eggs, so if you don't like eggs and don't want something with 80g of fat and sugar for breakfast, you're kind of screwed. read more

I would like to preface this review by stating that I am a server, so I know how service SHOULD be, I'm not just some crazy person who thinks things like waiting 10 min for a well done steak is "absurd" I came here for breakfast this morning at around 11:20. I managed to get a seat right away in the self seating area just to the left of the hostess stand. My server, Brittney, greeted me immediately and got my drink order. But then I had to wait a good 5 min for my coffee and water, and never got a spoon for my coffee (not a big deal but I don't like having to stir my coffee with a steak knife). By then I was ready to order, so I placed my order and waited. Someone else brought me my bloody Mary and offered me more coffee, but never brought me any. After about 10 min of having and empty cup and not seeing my server I finally asked the busser for some. A few min later my food was delivered by the same girl who delivered my bloody Mary and she finally brought me coffee. I asked her for a spoon and mentioned that I still hadn't received my juice. She said "ok" and left and didn't return. I didn't see my server again until I was 95% done with my meal (an omelet which was bland and in a pool of some kind of liquid on my plate - maybe tomato juices?) and again asked for a spoon and more coffee. A few min later I got a spoon but didn't get more coffee for about 7 min. All in all this whole dining experience took an hour, which is pretty ridiculous for 1 person to get an omelet. (I wrote this in March 2012 and just saw that it never posted. Oops!) read more

If I could provide no stars, I would. My family and I went to this Mimi's location this morning for breakfast. My wife and three kids were greeted by a blonde waitress who distractedly took our drink orders, and when I asked if she would provide us with bread, acted like I had requested her to raise the titanic. She said she'll only bring bread if we ask, but since I did, she would do so. She brought the bread, took our orders, and when I ordered I asked for a BLT, and requested that she underline this exception: EXTRA CRISPY BACON! She said she would, but I did not see her write that on the ticket. From this point on until she dropped off the final check, we did not see her. Someone else brought our food, but never once did she stop to see if our food came out right, or to refill any drinks. She simply disappeared. The reason I am writing this review, however, is because of the bacon. It was exceptionally fatty and soggy and absolutely disgusting. It was the furthest from crispy you could possibly get. After picking through the bacon I was able to find just enough to eat one half of the sandwich, but the rest was so fatty I had to give up. The final bill was $75 for breakfast. A terrible one at that. Outrageous. The irony? When she picked up the bill, she looked on my plate, picked it up, and took it away. What would any respectable server have done? She would've seen an entire plate full of food, and asked me what was wrong with it. Then she would've called over manager and taken the item off my bill. I will never, ever go to this restaurant again, and I strongly recommend you consider not doing so either. read more

We come every Saturday and love the experience. Beverly is amazing and takes time to know her customers. We can't say enough good things about this location and the staff!!!! read more

Upon the recommendation of friends, we had breakfast at this Mimi's Cafe 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. Decor 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 read more

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. read more

Great visit, I enjoyed the food and the surroundings are great. I had the Mushroom, Spinach, and Brie Omelet. My Wife had the Quiche Lorraine. Both were good, the Menu isn't what I would usually eat but I was presently surprised Our Waitress was very attentive Sue did a great job!!! read more
