    I live in Marina Del Rey but decided to go to the LA Fair this year so on my way to Pomona I decided to stop in Covina for breakfast. I had already been to most of the others in the area so decided to go with Millie's as I had never been there before. I would classify it as a country diner versus a retro diner. The menu has all sorts of American comfort food classics on it, and few elevated breakfast dishes. Inside is quite large with many different seating options including booths, tables, and counter. Our server was very polite and he mentioned that he was just about to have his seven year anniversary so it's nice to see that this restaurant has a lot of regulars. Service is also really fast, our food came out shortly after ordering it. Parking is also very easy because there is a large free parking lot attached right out front. The food itself was just OK, definitely not bad, but definitely not as good as some breakfast spots here in Santa Monica or MDR. For my meal I chose the California Avocado Omelette and thought it was pretty good, but felt the protein amount was minimal. It's not quite as hardy nor do they have as large portions as some other places close by but I still enjoyed it. I think the pricing was fair and I would stop in again if I'm in the area, although I have had better breakfasts in the Eastern Los Angeles area.

    California omelette: I highly recommend, it was so good!

    This place is always busy so we usually don't have time to dine here. We went on a Monday and it wasn't too busy, steady customers but the service was quick and our coffee was never empty! The food was delicious and so glad we decided to eat here. The restaurant was also very clean.

    Millies is a home away from home. The staff treat you so warmly and the food always tastes like it was made with love, because it is! The ambiance is cozy diner style!

    What a pleasant surprise to our day. I was expecting this place to be like Dennys, but it felt down home. When we pulled up my wife said surely these cars can't all be for the restaurant, but they were. The place was pretty well packed at 10 AM on a Thursday. Personally, I loved the interior decor. It was Christmas decor and a slice of Americana. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We both enjoyed our meals. Portions were good. The biscuit and gravy were better than average. Bacon was a bit undercooked for my preference. My wife loved the machaca. The home fries were quite good as were the refried beans.

    Cornbread with corn! Butter was creamy.

    It's been a long time since we come to Millie's, we almost forgot it exists. The place is so dated but it's kinda comforting too... like home. The table where we sat was the brightest spot with good lighting which I appreciate. Server was good. Food was great. I have the meatloaf. Flavorful. My husband has the fried chicken... that's A LOT of fried chicken. A bit too dry on the chicken thigh. Cornbread was warm and delicious. Nice to have actual corn in the cornbread. Perfect timing that tonight was also the Christmas parade, so after dinner we walked a few blocks to watch the parade. It would be nice if corporate or the owner gave funding to update the place. Everything was beyond worn.

    I love the place, feels like an old American movie. The club sandwich I got was really delicious and the chocolate milkshake! Omg! Delishhhhhh, not big fan of the ny cheesecake. Our server was really kind.

    Classic diner for ya. Places wasn't too packed and service was tip top. I guess the one bad thing is no coke only Pepsi haha. But still good grub! I got a bow of chili and turkey dinner. The chilis was great diner chili and the turkey dinner was just as expected. Hit the spot and really stuck to my ribs if ya get me. Lots of parking and plenty of indoor seating. There is also a breakfast bar if you don't feel like being seated.

    Is breakfast served through out the day?

    Yes, I had waffles at 10:30 at night. It was delicious. Their omelets were great as well, that's what my parents shared.

I came in around 5:30pm and was able to grab this chocolate ganache cake. I noticed that some of the other cakes were already taken which id assume means they're quite popular! The lady who helped me out was very kind and she was nice enough to take the time to write "happy birthday dad" on the cake thank you so much!

I came in on the way to a birthday party on a Sunday afternoon and they saved me. While they customized the cake I ran into Smart & Final next door and picked up some things. The cake itself was absolutely delicious. Pictures do not do it justice. The sponge cake is super moist and tastes amazing. The butter cream and toppings are all excellent as well. Got lucky with the Yelp pick once again. This will be a regular for my cake needs from now on, and will definitely save me some trips to Porto's (but not all of the trips.. Portos's is Porto's after all).

My favorite is their sea salt coffee (iced for the hot days, hot for the chilly days) they are both good in any way. Perfect sweetness and tasty aroma of their coffee. Have to say it's different from the ground coffee I purchased before. When you make it at home it tastes different. So, the best bet is to go there to enjoy it or pick it up togo. If you decide to sit down and enjoy a piece of bakery or cake, it's not bad. Place is clean and ambience is nice with music right on you vibe, keep you mood uplifted. I always order birthday cakes for my family on special occasion and other fresh breads served daily. Prices and tastes tailored to Asian buds not too salty or too sweet, just perfect While you are there, grab some snacks as well, they are crunchy and nutty (don't know the name). My kids love their cookies and coconut cubes. Just stop by and sign up with your apps because you get points so you can redeem it for something you like in the future. And they also have a monthly special like BOGO drinks and bakery , Check it out ~!

I order the Vietnamese Iced Coffee. Honestly, perhaps it was a batch issue, but the coffee tasted that the last leg of a pre-made pitcher of coffee with unfiltered coffee grinds. I like my coffee bitter, but this was beyond bitter, towards burnt or aged coffee grinds. I'll have to try it elsewhere to compare. By far the worse, Vietnamese Coffee experience.

There's street and garage parking for customers. Plenty of tables at this location inside and outside. The location could so use maintenance as some unoccupied tables were still dirty.

We got a Chai and Matcha Latte and a Dubai Chocolate mochi donut & Salted Caramel Pretzel Supreme Croissant. The drinks were solid and pretty standard. The pastries though were GOOD!

It's better to come in during the morning because by afternoon, there is a good chance you will see a fly in the glass casing touching all the pastries. Yikes! It's happened on multiple instances. Also, employees do not use gloves when handling pastries whether that be from putting your pastries in bags at checkout, warming it up for you, or bagging individual pastries to be put on shelves. No gloves used. Now for the poor customer service and management.. I believe the unprofessional customer service stems from untrained management as employees are often frazzled and seem clueless on effective time management. If there's more than 2 customers in line, employees suddenly don't know what to do. They go from taking an order to ignoring the next customer in line to go make drinks for 5 minutes then come back. Then while waiting for drinks, people who ordered drinks after me got theirs first. I want to call out two specific employees (1 male with ear piercings and 1 female) on Sunday morning 04/26/26. There was no one else behind me as I ordered 2 drinks one being a frappe. They were conversing the whole time which I don't mind but it hindered and slowed down the timing in making my drinks. While the girl was making my frappe and pouring it in the cup, she STOPPED AND PAUSED TO CONTINUE HER CONVERSATION. while we were standing there just waiting. It's just extremely unprofessional. Also might be a management issue to have poorly trained team members as employees don't seem to stay for long.
