MIMI'S CAFE REVIEWS

I've been here twice in two months and both times I enjoyed the food, service and atmosphere. This last visit I had the Strawberry Lemonade and shared the Brioche Cheeseburger with my sister, as it was pretty big and neither of us wanted too much. It was my also my birthday weekend so I had Mimi's Bread Pudding (shared with others) and the Creme Brulee. It was all delicious and I enjoyed everything. Our host was very kind and courteous. And the venue has great seating options. On this visit we were on the outside patio which was beautiful on such a nice day as it wasn't too hot or cold out there. And they had umbrellas set up over us. It was perfect.

I’ve been going to Mimi’s Cafe for around 16 years and I cannot help but appreciate the consistency of the food and service. The food is always warm and tasty, and the staff is swift and always right there if you need anything. I have a special thanks for Maria as she has performed above and beyond for the cafe and I think anyone can appreciate her hard-working nature and lovable character. Please consider stopping by Mimi’s Cafe.

The service was very great and fast. Our server Ana was very kind and Miguel was very helpful and kind. He gave us a free desert for my birthday and gave me and my friend who came here for the first time a free muffin. Overall the experience was very welcoming and pleasant.

CLUTCH AND COFFEE REVIEWS

Flew in to LA and decided to grab a nice breakfast from this place with my Girlfriend! Decided to get this Loaded Breakfast Bowl and its DELICIOUS and filling. The potatoes - Bacon and Eggs were all absolutely fantastic. The sauce too was all solid. The waffle was just perfect. Not too soft or too crunchy with the right amount of sugar. Overall really happy with this place. Highly recommend! It can be very busy but we decided to sit at the kitchen area instead of booth or outside!

We ordered the country Benedict, a kids plate of French toast with the made in-house chicken patty, 2 egg breakfast & half side of biscuits and gravy. The gravy was so good on both plates. I liked that our server was very helpful navigate our way through the menu as it was our first time there. From the atmosphere to the service, we had a great experience. We feel like we discovered a new favorite place to eat at. Thank you!

Good food, friendly service, great coffee! There was just the right amount of spice in my shashuka, and the eggs were poached perfectly. The tritip is my husband's omelette was flavorful and tender. The biscuit was phenomenal, crisp outside and soft inside. Their espresso has a lot of body to it. Highly recommend trying one of their coffee drinks!

ARISTO CAFE REVIEWS

This family-owned gem is our go-to spot for Mediterranean cuisine — and for good reason. The food is consistently fresh, perfectly seasoned, and served in generous portions that never disappoint. You can taste the care and tradition in every dish, and the hospitality is just as impressive. The owners treat you like family, and the service is always warm and attentive. Whether you’re craving a quick bite or a relaxed meal with friends, this place checks every box. Highly recommend!

If you are craving Mediterranean food and live in the South Bay, run don’t walk! This place is family owned, authentic, and very reasonably priced. Even the salad dressing is fresh! You can tell there is a lot of love going into this food. We ordered the falafels, dolmas, hummus, chicken kabob plate. The food just kept getting better. If I could give them 11 stars I would; HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Their kabobs are amazing—our favorites are the chicken and beef kabobs. The meat is always juicy and tender. Dont miss their spicy garlic sauce—it’s very good and takes everything to the next level. We will always support neighborhood restaurants like this that deliver great service and quality food. Highly recommended!
