Love this place. First time eating here, and the food is delicious. The service was great. It es not packed at all, got seated quickly. The food is perfect and they kept the coffee cup warm n full!
I have always liked Mimi’s Cafe, but had never been to this location. I visited here around 1:30pm on a Saturday thinking it would be very busy, but it wasn’t busy at all! The interior is a home style, Victorian vibe and the restaurant seemed to be clean and maintained. Our server was attentive, and on top of everything. Our customizations in our orders both came out exactly as asked for, which is a big plus. The food here is awesome, especially the breakfast! I will definitely be recommending this Mimi’s Cafe location, and will be returning myself! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Really enjoyed our visit to Mimi’s Cafe. We ordered the spinach artichoke dip, the mushroom and Brie melt, and everything was delicious. The mushroom and Brie melt was especially good. The prices were reasonable, the atmosphere was cozy and relaxing, and the service was friendly. Overall, it was a great experience and we’ll definitely be back.
Jonathan was amazing. Gave us recommendations on the menu and it was delicious. Couldn’t ask for a better waiter ! Food was hot , drinks cold and refreshing and we enjoyed the meal and the atmosphere. Going back soon!
I went back on a Sunday. Great service. Good food and atmosphere. We were a party of 10. Everyone enjoyed the meal and the service. It no longer has that bad smell from a few months ago.
After entering, the host was very friendly and sat us down immediately as it was not busy at the time. Our server, Grese, was attentive, checking on our table every time she walked by. The food tasted freshly made and full of flavor. Will definitely coming back here frequently.
Located on the corner of Day St. and Campus Pkwy. with plenty of parking. We've enjoyed Mimi's for many years now and continue having a good experience at this location. The restaurant is clean and organized with a full-sized bar and an outside seating set-up (although I've never seen customers dining outside). On this past visit, I tried their 'Jambalaya' served over rice. It was really tasty and fresh. We added 'Six Carrot Raisin Nut Madeleines' to our bread basket which was a great idea. Their menu consists of 'Burgers, Sandwiches, Salads, Steaks, Salmon, Chicken Pot-Pie, Pasta, Soups, All-Day Breakfast, and more'. Prices are fair and portions are generous. Service was great. Every staff member we encountered was friendly and welcoming. Shout out to our server, 'Maria' who was super attentive and made sure we had a positive dinner experience. We will continue to choose this Mimi's based on their good service.
The service was great and the food delicious. The place has a cozy atmosphere.
Had a really good experience for lunch at this location. Everyone was friendly and on it as can be, considering a busy day. The food was really good, better than expected. The manager checked on our table several times to make sure that we were doing good. Would definitely come back again.
Ate breakfast here celebrating a birthday. We both got French toast, 1 regular and 1 stuffed with fruit. The stuffed French toast was absolutely amazing. The seasonal coffee was really good too. The atmosphere inside was very cozy. I highly recommend Mimi's for breakfast in Moreno Valley.
