Walking around downtown and the smell coming from Mimo's literally was so good we had to stop in. Cute quaint restaurant with minimal indoor seating but ample outdoor shaded dining space. Very comfortable outside with music, gave it a great vibe. We opted for the burger special, great value! The hamburgers were cooked to perfection, and French fries super tasty. They do have a full menu! The service was excellent, very friendly and attentive. Highly recommend you giving them a try! read more

We came here after a hike at Hellman Park Trailhead. There's plenty of seating outside but you order and pay first. I got the French toast with 2 eggs over easy and sausage. It was sooo good! The service was good but it can take a bit to get the food. read more

Ventured out to uptown Whittier today and decided to stop in here for our morning coffee. I didn't know what to order till a lady walked in and picked up an iced cafe de olla and it just looked amazing! So I grabbed on as well and the wife got an iced Amaretto coffee. Staff was soooooo nice and friendly. At first they looked serious and I was worried They would come off as rude but no way , super cool! And talkative ! Even after we grabbed our coffee and left to sit outside they still came out to see if everything was good. Kudos to this place and I'm so happy we stopped in 20 thousand stars!!!! read more

I thought I would give this place a second chance since the first time I ate there and had breakfast. Unfortunately, it did not taste good. Today I arrived about 230 pm and ordered the taquitos. Again not too impressed. The lettuce they served with the taquitos was wilted. I'm surprised even though it was still early in the day. Wilted lettuce might be expected later in the day but a good restaurant should not serve food that has been sitting all day. Needless to say, I was so hungry I ate the taquitos except for the wilted lettuce. If i had to choose the only thing good was the guacamole but I've had better. read more

I've been eating from Mimo's Cafe regularly for about five years now, and the consistency is exactly why I keep coming back. No matter how busy they get, the quality of the food never slips--it's always fresh, well-prepared, and reliable every single time. Their delivery service to Uptown has honestly saved me more times than I can count, especially on long or hectic days when cooking just isn't an option. The prices are very fair for the portion sizes and overall quality, which makes it easy to support them regularly. It's rare to find a local café that stays this consistent over the years, and Mimo's Cafe has absolutely earned my loyalty. read more

Very friendly service with a nice greeting as you enter. An extensive menu from breakfast to lunch and dinner. Lots to choose from and competitive pricing. Homemade style with drink selections on the side. Combos and daily specials are offered. We had the chicken parmigiana and the turkey burger combo. Both were delicious. Pastries for dessert too. read more

Had the pleasure of finding them gem of an establishment today. Service was great, food took no time at all to be brought to our table. Not much seating inside, but outside provided more space. Definitely will be back when me & my wife are in the area. My apologies I forgot to take pictures of our food. She ordered the pancake combo (came w/3 large pancakes, eggs and 4 pieces of bacon), I ordered the french toast combo (eggs & 4 pieces of bacon) read more

The service here is very friendly. This cafe has been around since my family first came to Whittier about three decades ago. Their club sandwiches are great and their fries are yummy as they're served fresh, crispy and thick. I also loved that they weren't salted. They give you ketchup, salt, and pepper so that the customer can season as they prefer. The coffee was also great and the price was very reasonable. I got the small mocha latte and as a slight sweet tooth who also gets acid reflux if drinking strong coffee I was pleased that the drink wasn't too strong and it was so satisfying. I also love that they put what seemed to be crushed cocoa pebbles in the drink. They also have decaf coffee for those who can't handle caffeine. The cafe has both indoor and outdoor seating. They have a retro feel inside with a menu written in chalk and traditional pastries displayed. read more

The workers here are super nice and the food is really good. I usually opt for a sausage breakfast burrito with green sauce on the side. I also enjoy their iced vanilla latte sub oat milk. I also love how cute the vibe is, very cozy. read more

the food is always good, always clean and a nice little spot to eat in uptown. Service is good they are attentive but smiling wouldn't hurt!

I and my roommate, caretaker, ate here earlier today! I had the Four Taquitos plate, with refried beans, salsa, some lettuce, guacamole, and sour cream. My roommate had their Mediterrian dish. Great food! Great prices! Great service! Eating outside is great! read more

Perfect spot if you enjoy old timers smoking cigars while you're sitting on their patio trying to eat breakfast.... I had to stop eating and leave because there were three old men smoking in the patio. It's 2025! Smoking in a restaurant patio is disgusting. read more

We tried this place for the first time last year on Father's Day. We were looking for a place with an outside patio that would fit our large family. We showed up last minute and were able to be accommodated. The server was so incredibly warm and welcoming. He made sure we were all comfortable and in the shade. He even made sure there was space to pull up our babies stroller comfortably. He was fast and always attentive. My entire family ordered different fishers and they all raved about what that had chosen. Since then we have been back frequently and enjoy every one of our visits. read more

Came for breakfast and the food was very good and tasted fresh. It does come a bit under seasoned for each persons preference to add additional salt or sauces when served. I ordered a Cafe de Olla and it was Amazing, not too sweet and not too bitter. Their desserts look amazing and will definitely be coming back for one on the next run. The pricing is average and in my opinions reasonable for the quantity of food. The servers are very welcoming and very attentive to you. read more

Excellent good, service and atmosphere. I got the chilaquiles and my husband got tube eggs Benedict. Everything was fresh and very tasty. Had to save room for a canoli, they were fresh! read more

The service is great! They have a variety of dishes. We loved the Greek salad! Great atmosphere !

The worst service, honestly, the lady is condescendinglu rude at 8am in the morning. Don't work this job if u don't feel to be a worker at this place. read more

Restroom: No restroom available. They suggest to go buy something small next door to use their restroom. Credit Cards: They are accepted. Location/Parking: Located in between Philadelphia and Bailey St. on Greenleaf Ave. Parking can be found in the parking structure on Cornstock Ave. Ambiance: Pretty chill vibe sitting in their outdoor patio. The only negative about this chill vibe is this pesky fly that wouldn't leave us alone. Service: Service was great. Food came out at a decent time and our waitress check up on us through out our lunch outing. Food Of Choice: 1) Chorizo breakfast burrito: Burrito was actually good. Thought the burrito would be salty from the meat, but I was grateful that it wasn't. 2) Chicken Salad: everything was fresh and balanced the meal. 3) Tilapia: Was quite tasty and loved how the fries didn't have salt on them Cafe For Thought: Definitely coming back. read more

Disgusting! I ordered a tuna melt yesterday that seemed a bit off but ate it anyway bc I thought maybe the tuna was albacore which is sometimes smelly. Nope ! The food was bad, I was up all night throwing & am so sick now! read more

This is a classic spot in Uptown Whittier I've gone to for years now. I usually come for breakfast and lunch since they just hit the spot. Perfect cafe vibes. My bf and I enjoyed our lunch on the patio while a guitarist was playing sweet tunes. Fries and ranch are my favorite, can't go wrong with a BLT. Vanilla lattes also hit the spot with the perfect amount of sweetness. All my experiences with food have been nothing but great. Only reason for it not being 5 stars is the workers. I've had interactions with different employees throughout the years and they never hit the mark with me. Not very engaging or welcoming. Would still recommend the place and will keep coming back! read more

Went Friday noon for some coffee with friends. Love the service. Very attractive. Clean olace, Inside and outside. Had to get a peanut butter cookie to eat in the evening. Since it was fast Friday, Saturday evening hubby and came down for dinner. I had the hamburger special, hamburger was really good, and crispy fries. Hubby has asada fries. Wish I could have taken a picture. But we had to eat them right way, since they looked so delicious. Oh yes, I had to buy another peanut butter cookie, well done like I love them. read more

It's an al fresco dining and they've got a wide selection of breakfast and lunch menu. We are a walk-in party of 9 but they accommodated us right away. Most ordered steak and eggs, some asada, cheese quesadilla, and banana split. The food had a generous serving and their steak was tender and flavorful. We had to request for a crispy potatoes which they gladly did. It was quite a long wait for the food to get served but it was all good because the food was great. Would recommend when here in Uptown Whittier. read more
