The food is ok to above-average, but the service is pretty bad. Not bad as in, rude, but bad as in, nonexistent much of the time. I would imagine if you went here during off hours it wouldn't be a problem, but God help you if you decide to come here when there are more than several parties. They usually only have 1 or 2 waiter/waitresses to take care of the entire restaurant, and it's definitely not enough. So don't come here if you're in a rush of any kind. You'll be waiting a while most likely. read more

Been here 3xs and every time, I'm stuffed with satisfaction. 4 stars because we had asked for a table (because my relative specifically needs a chair), but she gave us a booth. So we moved to a table and she was mad. Other than that, our new waitress was amazing & always checked in with us. We also love their cinnamon rolls!!!! And their cool little gift shop. We bought my daughter a Goofy key chain read more

Wish I could give this place a higher rating. I have been here multiple times. The food has never been amazing just average. The waitresses are usually pretty attentive. Although on this last visit there I was completely disappointed. Five out of the six in my party ordered coffee. One of the coffee mugs still had the lipstick on it. Just makes me wonder how well these dishes are being washed. Totally gross. read more

I've been coming to Millie's for years -- and I am so sorry that I've never complimented the management and staff for their outstanding service and wonderful food. The wait staff all seem genuinely engaged with their guests; the remarkable menu has, quite literally, "something for everyone". Every plate is a generous serving of delicious food. Great job, everyone! read more

I have been coming to this place for years and today the cashier (I am thinking the manager, perhaps Armando from the looks of other reviews also claiming how rude and unprofessional he is) was super rude. We had a question on the price that was not listed in the menu or told to us by the waitress and instead of handling it to our satisfaction, he ignored us and proceeded to run my card and keep up his rude behavior and called me an idiot. Food was good but unfortunately we won't go back with such rude service, especially by a manager, assuming he was one. I don't think this guy should even be a greeter at Walmart. When will the owners wise up and get rid of him. Super sad for a long time client. read more

I come here quite a bit with family and always leave disappointed. The owner/manager seems really nice but the service here varies a lot and the food not good. It's just a quaint little restaurant that's usually filled with seniors. Prices are pretty good too for the amount of food you get. Their "country potatoes" have no flavor. The corned beef hash looks and tastes like dog food. Their chili will give you heartburn & tastes like it came from a can. I keep trying new things hoping I'll find something decent but no luck. read more

Great pies, awesome service! Solid cherry and coconut cream pie! More about how much I love pie and how Millie's is dy-no-mite, cus of Yelp's minimum character for reviews. read more

Maybe not the freshest decor or newest place to eat, but always dependable. After arriving a failed restraint known for pies, we elected to come to Millie's. Service was impeccable, even with the one person who seemed to be ha doing it all. Personal, checked in, refilled the drinks and assured the pies were ready for our enjoyment. read more

Outside seating not sure if they even sanitize the tables after you eat seen a guy wipe the tables down like they would for bussing the tables but diddnt see a spray bottle. Service sucked took 20 minutes for drink order and another 5-10 for actual food order waited a while for the food other tables around us who were there before us looked annoyed they diddnt have their food yet either . The food is ihop prices without the great flavor. Flavorless hospital food is what you get for the price. Ordered the ham and cheese omelette pretty basic with pancakes and hash browns. Syrup had no flavor same as pancakes. Eggs were basic, ham was over cooked and salty only good thing on my plate was the hash browns which were seasoned and cooked perfectly. Which is realistically the reason it got 1 star. read more

I had been anticipating this meal for a while now. I ordered the French Toast breakfast with eggs scrambled with cheese & bacon. I was impressed with the French Toast for sure....nice and soft and buttery (a little too much butter for me) but still top three French Toast I have had so far in LA. The eggs however felt flat on my expectations. They felt disingenuous ...lol as if they were fake eggs mix being passed as real eggs. The cheese helped the experience , but I was throughly unimpressed with my eggs. Bacon stood up tall. Great contrast between the eggs and the French Toast. read more

We were seated quickly and served coffee and water. The waitress took our order of the Denver omelette and French toast breakfast. As we sat waiting I finished my coffee and we waited. A gentleman was seated across from his order was taken. He was served immediately. We waited the waitress servicing the gentleman even refilled his coffee. After about 20 minutes our food comes. The French toast is cold as well as everything else we ordered. Mind you we've been also waiting for a coffee refill . I tell our waitress Maricela that the food is cold and we've been waiting a long time. Also, we've been waiting for a coffee refill. I tell her we haven't seen her since our order was taken and others that came in after us were taken care of by the other waitress. She responds that our food just came out and it's hot. I touch the French toast and pick one up and say it's cold. I also say all the food is cold and has a glazed look like it's been sitting awhile. She takes my plate and says she rush a new order. We can overhear her saying to the cook that I said the food is cold. She brings the food back and it's still cold. I tell her it's cold and she says was just made. I pick up the French toast and say it's cold. Now I know how French toast is cooked and how it's hot through from the steam. This french toast was apparently placed back on the grill not made over. She takes it back and tells the cook that I complained that the food was cold. We could hear his derogatory remark. We could hear because we were on the other side of the partition. They could also be heard laughing. I've been here before and received excellent service. It's a shame that at this establishment the customer is wrong. When food is taken back to the cook the customer shouldn't be mentioned to the cook. The waitress should tell the cook the food is cold. The waitress job is to serve the food right when it's ready. The cooks job is to make the food and alert that it's ready bottom line. The chatting and laughing while customers are waiting is bad bad bad customer service. We paid and I talked to the owner who informed me that I was wrong and that he was back there and a new order of French toast was made. He backs up his employee. He talked over me and I had to ask him to let me speak . It was useless and he stated he didn't care if this service was in YELP. read more

I come here all the time, with family, friends, loved ones, and I'm never disappointed with the service even when they're busy. This is my go to spot for breakfast or brunch whether it be by myself or with company. read more

Amazing food, amazing staff, and an amazing experience overall. The manager Armando is the man! Definitely a place to go

As you can see on the bill..We order breakfast, omelet was dry, eggs over cooked, added way to much spinach and the mushrooms where too thick. I order medium rare steak (got over well done and dry steak) and eggs (over cooked) my sourdough toast was extremely hard and cold. My daughter couldn't eat the eggs with cheese (over cooked and cheese quality was poor) Salsa is not fresh (can salsa) The fried zucchini was pretty good, waitress was helpful and kind. The desserts looked good but after the breakfast fiasco we were afraid of trying them. Older gentleman at the cash register gave us a $5 discount for the horrible food, it was nice but really ? ‍ Oh well It was our first time at this place (trying something new) it will be the last one too. I rather wait 40 mins than eat mediocre food. Please a better or train them better. Just saying ‍ read more

The best chicken soup ever! Delicious and Nutritions at a great price. I get it about twice a week

This place seems like it's trapped in the past with a very rustic diner vibe filled with delicious food and very hospitable service. Our server was so sweet and attentive. The pricing is fair because the portions are fairly large, and oh so yummy. I had the California omelet with a wheel pancake on the side and couldn't finish the whole thing. That pancake was so warm in fluffy I wanted to fall asleep on it. This place is easily now in my top choices for breakfast. read more

I hadn't been to Millie's in a couple of years. Last night I met up with a friend for dinner and we were both disappointed. The bottomless soup is no longer available. The word "bottomless" is blacked with marker on the menu. Our server advised they no longer offer the bottomless soup. I went ahead and ordered the Chicken Tortilla Soup. It was watered down, no flavor, very little, if any, cheese. My friend ordered a beef plate and she also said it had no flavor. The staff working was not the usual ladies I remember. Based on my experience, it seems that Millie's is under new ownership. I will not return. read more

Well its got something for everyone.. decent food decent prices, comfortable... Nothing special.. beats the hell out of Denny's. except Denny's has the best pancakes.. beats IHOP, beats most of the diners in the area read more

The service and food was great! I met some friends for breakfast. Our waitress was very respectful to us and our breakfast was made to our liking. read more

Walked in and it was busy but there were still plenty of tables.. the wait was 5 minutes.. a couple walked in after us and put there name down. They immediately called them..no biggy. Then they sat us.. we were immediately greeted by the busboy.. got our drinks... then we waited....and waited... and waited. I get the pandemic and short staff but we weren't even acknowledged. I finished 2 cups of coffee and still nothing.. we waited 20 minutes then got up and asked to pay for our drinks and left... haven't been there in a long time and definitely won't be back... read more

Is was over 100 degrees outside and we wanted somewhere to grab lunch. The portions are generous. Because of the heat, the food wasn't the freshest but it was okay. Fried zucchini was amazingly large and good. Cobb salad was ok. Fish and chips were okay too. Grabbed a personal apple pie to take home read more

Worst chicken pie I've ever ate in my entire life. Felt sorry for the surver that served me the last pie for the day. Who knows what time they made it. Ate cornbread for dinner. Never again. read more

I love this place. There is something for everyone, the service is great and I dream of their food. The best fried zucchini on the planet. We had the patty melt and flat bread tacos. Every bite is amazing plus the prices are better than any other restaurant. read more

Great slice of Americana. An old fashioned diner with the bonus of a pie shop (with small pies for convenience) and a small gift shop with fun offerings (towels, keychains, mugs, etc.) I picked up a great Nightmare Before Christmas, Jack Skellington Mug. The breakfasts are lumberjack worthy. Biscuits and gravy, pancakes, and all the regular fixings. read more

My go-to breakfast restaurant. Love the multigrain pancake combo. Service is attentive and pleased. I love the service . Recommend coming early, for they get busy and the service might not be the same. read more

Great food. Unique offerings. One of the few restaurants where you can buy a pastrami omelet, a giant cinnamon roll, and a grilled Monte Cristo sandwich. I miss the one in Riverside which actually sold hot dogs when baseball season started. Enjoy! read more

I have been going to Mille's restaurant for well over 25 years . The service has faltered in recent times. Limited staff makes the wait for service and food very long. My server Adela took so long to take my order that she got it all wrong. When I complained she then tried to cover herself up by telling the manager a story of lies as if I wanted a free meal. The manager Armando was not customer friendly and did not act accordingly . In fact he was arrogant and condescending when I told him about the server's error . I will not eat there ever again, there are a lot more restaurants in Covina that could use the business . If you do go make sure the server reads your order back to you, otherwise you'll be stuck with a disgusting meal and a sour bill of sale. read more

First time eating here. Breakfast was delicious and fresh. Staff were friendly. We will definitely be coming back soon!! :)

First time here with my family. So I ordered the BYOB. Hamburger meat, wheat bun, avocado, smoked bacon and lettuce and tomatoes. Very filling and tasty. Love the mucus they have playing..70's music. read more

Millie's - BYOB..mmm..Meat, smoked bacon, lettuce and tomato on a wheat bun. - American Near Me - Covina, California

This was my first time eating here and I was actually excited to try a new place. When I walked in and was sat down the ambience reminded me of a Las Vegas Diner/Cafe for some reason. The music they were playing was great oldies 50's-60's era. We were seated promptly and waited on quickly. Now as for the food.... eh it was ok. I ordered the french toast plate. The french toast was kinda dry and reminded me of freezer french toast that was popped into the microwave then served. My mom loved her corn beef hash so I guess that was ok. I also ordered a take out order for my husband of the french toast plate and brought it home. He immediately spit it out and I can see why. I went and inspected his food.... the sausage was the consistency of oatmeal when bit into.... i asked for sunny side up eggs but his so called sunny side up eggs were cooked throughly.. the yoke was even cooked..... his french toast again was dry and lacking in flavor. Not too sure if I will go back. I can definitely say Dennys tops this place in food. read more

My husband went in for some deserts for us. And he came back a happy man thank you to the gentlemen that helped my husband with his many choices in desserts we enjoyed every single one specially the apple pie my fav. I forgot to take pic before read more

The Cinnamon Roll still is a must to start the breakfast. I miss the Glendora location and haven't had the Roll since then. Well, on our way to IKEA, we decided to have the better Roll (here) along with breakfast. Everyone like the change in plans. The service was prompt and very warm. The food is as expected. Good for the money, but not as good as Flappys but not as expensive as well - and better than most. The coffee was kept nice and hot as well. Good Value here. On my way to IKEA from now on, I will be making a stop here; then I can enjoy walking it off on those two winding IKEA floors. read more

Our server was very nice and accomodating. My friend asked if she could get turkey bacon rather than regular and our server said, "Of course!" I didn't see the exact breakfast combo I was craving, so I asked her if I could get two eggs, hashbrowns, 2 strips of bacon, and toast. She replied, "Anything you want! We make it easy!" I thought she was awesome. The food was delicious. The portions were generous and the price was right. My breaksfast was much better than breakfasts I've had at IHOP, Denny's, Flappy Jack's (service and food there is pretty hit-or-miss), and Mr. D's Diner. I've been to a lot of breakfast places in the area. I liked the food and service at Millie's the best. I also really enjoyed the oldies from the '50s and '60s since I can't hear them on the radio anymore. That's how I know I'm in a legit diner. I also loved that they are the only diner in the area that has orange marmalade. That's also legit. There is a wait on weekends. It was only 15 minutes which wasn't too bad. I can see why they're so popular! I'll be coming here regularly! read more

We do not recommend this restaurant. Today was a total turnoff. Been here a few times and it has been ok. However today is our last time. The orders took an extremely long time to get with other patrons who came in well after us getting served first. When we finally got the food it was cold and main dishes overcooked, dried out almost to the point of being inedible. Clearly food had been just sitting. We did complain about the coldness but after waiting so long, we didn't have time to have the orders remade so we asked for extra Gravy. We needed more since the mashed potatoes had just a small dollop on them and we needed more gravy to help moisten a dried out, overcooked chicken. Even with the Gravy it still gave our jaws a workout to eat and choke down. We got the bill and went to pay. What is appalling is the cashier/manager decided on his own to add a Gravy charge that was not on the original bill!! Instead of having to remake our meals or discounting the price for a bad meal, he ADDED a charge!!! Unbelievable! Your cheapness lost some customers. Not a way to run a restaurant. I would not recommend going here! read more

At the urging of my pal Annakins, I visited the Millie's where she works for a Saturday morning breakfast binge session. If you are obsessed with pancakes like I am, I recommend ordering the Ranch Hand Pancake Combo. With a stack of 2 "wagon wheel-sized" pancakes, it also includes the standard-issue 2 eggs, 2 bacon strips, and 2 sausage links. Portion-size here is way more than a Denny's Grand Slam. The pancakes were fluffy and buttery, much better than I had hoped. I imagine that when I eventually become sick of eating pancakes (shyeah, right!), I'd consider either the Stuffed French Toast plate or the Cinnamon Roll Combo. Although I did not have it for this particular visit, the Monte Cristo sandwich that Bridget V. mentioned is another menu item that I feel is a must-try at Millie's. Service was quick, attentive, and friendly with a smile. I added a glass of orange juice, and a side order of a biscuit with country gravy. The biscuit was massive, but I felt the gravy could have been more flavorful. Perhaps you could try the brown gravy instead, as Anna suggested to me. I guesstimate this meal at about 2000 kcal. For the average American, that's probably enough to fuel one for an entire day. I best spread out these sessions. And hit the gym hard. read more

The other morning I had the fortunate duty of waking up early to take my friend to the mechanic shop to pick up his car. I am considered to be a good friend, but when tasks of waking up early come into play, my friendship is questionable at best. My friend knew this and as a reward he treated me out for breakfast. We decided that we would find an Ihop and eat there. Problem was that we were in a somewhat foreign city and couldn't find out and decided to stop at the first available breakfast diner. That is how we stumbled upon Millie's Restaurant Bakery. It's a typical, old-fashioned diner. It's basically a Denny's with a 70s vibe to it. The menu is packed full of different breakfasts and to be honest, many of the options look really good. I decided to go the "healthy" route and get the Multi-Grain Pancake Combo. The meal consists of two multi-grain pancakes with almonds and walnuts mixed in and comes with Better N Eggs (which is a healthier egg substitute) and two slices of turkey bacon. I LOVE turkey bacon. So much, in fact, that I think I'm going to prepare a bunch of turkey bacon this coming Thanksgiving. (A random thought that came to me this very moment) The meal was excellent and the service and price was what you'd expect. It's good to change it up sometimes and eat at a less known place. As we left, we passed by an Ihop no more than a quarter mile down the road. Bottom Line: If you're tired going to same place to have your meals and you feel like wanting to changing it up one day, without having to pay more, Millie's is the place to go. read more

Came here for the first time with my husband and two kids. Wasn't our first choice but I hop and Denny's was way to packed for a Sunday but I am so glad we came to Millies. The employees were nice, and our server Trevor was amazing. The whole place was very homey and welcoming like a restaurant should be. Food was great as well. The menu has a lot of things to choose from which I loved. Will definitely be coming back here again with my family and possibly make it a usual things we do. read more

Went to breakfast Sunday morning. Pancakes and eggs were were great. Service was friendly and fast. My family and I come here often to eat and enjoy the at home feeling from all employees. Thanks read more
