Authentic Taiwanese shaved ice done right. Got mine with boba, coconut jelly, and egg pudding and every topping was so good. The ice itself was super soft, not the hard crunchy kind. Portion is HUGE too! Pro tip: ask for extra sugar on the side. It takes it to another level. Won't regret it. read more

One of our favorite Taiwanese restaurant in the area. It is affordable and the food is tasty and authentic. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is located in a plaza that unfortunately is not kept up.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There are plenty of parking spaces. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is small but has decent amount of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Servers are kind and attentive. We love coming here for their beef stew noodle soup, popcorn chicken, and fried pork chop with rice. They always give good portions. The pork chop is always crispy and yummy. I continue to come here for Taiwanese comfort food. read more

I've been coming here since middle school, and I still come here today. I'm a big fan of their popcorn chicken in bento style, along with the tea egg. The workers are usually very kind, and they know me, so they love having returning customers. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I don't usually sit down here to eat, but the inside is nice and clean, with little decoration, but still lovely.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

No matter what you order here, I highly recommend upgrading to the bento-style combo for an extra $4. You get so much more food: braised pork rice (or white rice), a marinated egg, and two side dishes. Don't underestimate any of these items. Even though they may look basic, every single component is surprisingly flavorful. The Dan Dan Noodles and Beef Stew Dry Noodles are also super tasty. Especially the Dan Dan Noodles, with just one bite, you'll experience rich and complex flavors. This is one of those places where, if you just look at the ratings, you might think, "Eh, maybe it's just okay." If you give a try you'll realize every dish is delicious and affordable. I used to come here for lunch quite often, and over the years, the flavors have remained the same. Authentic Taiwanese taste, done right, and consistently so. You might think a place like this must have bad service, right? My own experience was they were always friendly. If you order online, on their website. You can schedule a pick up time. The orders are always ready on time. read more

Tucked in a hole in a wall strip mall the parking lot is narrow and parking is tough next to the other busy Pho shop. Truly a hidden gem. The flavors are authentic and mature. Every Taiwanese dish is good. The portion sizes are fair and prices are great. One of the best popcorn chicken in the area according to my mini yelper. Highly recommended. read more

My parents have come here before for lunch and they really liked it. They said it was really busy at lunch and they have some good special lunch deals. We came here for dinner on a Wednesday and it was pretty empty. However, there were a few takeout orders while we ate. Place is a bit run down and they have a B grade, but the workers were all nice and friendly. I got the beef noodle soup with beef and no tendon and thick cut noodles. I would say it was one of the better beef noodle soups I have tried. Even the bok choy, which I usually don't like, tasted really good. Beef was also nice and tender and the soup had just the right amount of spiciness where it wasn't overpowering like some other restaurants. Noodles were also nice and chewy. I would also like to try some of the rice plates as they look good and look like authentic Taiwanese cuisine, but I also like this beef noodle soup so much that I might stick with it when I come back again. read more

So good. I absolutely love this place because it does the classic Taiwanese as well as new tastes on classics. You gotta try the tomato beef noodles with hand pulled noodles at least once in your life. The red pork belly is AMAZING so order one as an appetizer and share with your party. My sister loves the hong sau beef noodles and she is very critical. The servers are friendly and the buy one get one drinks specials are always on point. REAL watermelon juice!! read more

Mimi 5 Bobee - Combination Rice Bento Style - Taiwanese Near Me - Diamond Bar, California

This place is located in a pretty empty plaza, next to it are a bunch of empty stores which may seem scary but hopefully it'll revive into a better place soon. The place is very small, but the staff are super friendly. They can be very motherly and if you know mandarin they are very talkative and funny. They have a few specials on their blackboard such as their buy one get one free drinks. The place is known for their noodle soup, however, I felt like getting something fried and meaty so I ordered the popcorn chicken dry noodles. I asked for no spicy and the noodles were still flavorful despite looking plain. They also have beef noodle soup, Dan Dan noodles, stinky tofu, cold dishes (I.e. pig ears), and oyster omelette. We didn't order any drinks but they were always coming around to make sure our water glasses are full. The shaved ice was HUGE, enough for more than 6 probably. The bowl was so large that they gave us a bunch of bowls to share and a bottle condensed milk to drizzle as much as we want. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It wasn't busy when we came for lunch, they let us stay longer after eating so it would've been a perfect time for playing some board games.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The downside is that I had trouble locking the bathroom door but it was because I didn't know what they meant by pulling the doorknob upwards. So it does lock! Bathroom is clean too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, the desert was the highlight, so delicious and good thing it was sunny that day so that eating ice was just fine! read more

This is a Taiwanese comfort food place. Whenever we feel like having some Taiwanese food we will visit Mimi 5 Bobee. The servers and owner were very nice and friendly. I personally like their Braised Pork Chop with dry noodles. Their Beef stew noodles are really good as well. There are always 2-3 types of drink daily to buy one and get one free. Their food is pretty consistent. This current visit was good even though I was a little bit confused during the seating process. read more

I've been to the other location several times and always enjoyed homey food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place looks rundown and dirty.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was nice but ended weird. Came with a friend and had several stuff as seen in picture along with bogo free drink. Food: mediocre. stinky tofu wasn't smelly and texture was off. Noodles .. bland. Popcorn chicken, soggy and not crunchy. Fishballs probably the most appetizing Service: lady came over halfway to ask us to pay first because it'll be shift change and she wants her tips. Granted she was nice about it but it's very strange to do. Then I see her eating lunch after... said she's leaving soon bc she felt sick. ok. Won't be back.... if you want homemade rustic food, go somewhere else. It's too pricey here for such mediocre food read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Nestled in a quiet plaza lies a tasty, authentic Taiwanese restaurant called Mimi 5 Bobee.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have a variety of lunch specials, my go-to are the popcorn chicken lunch bentos and dry noodles. The popcorn chicken always has a good, sizable amount and you aren't left with a bunch of small battered pieces at the end. Service is quick and super friendly, you can order both online and in person. P.S. I loved the packaging on my popcorn chicken lol. I don't know if they do it all of the time based on my older orders from here, but this was a nice surprise because it reminded me of my days walking around Taiwan. And it kept the chicken from getting soggy! read more

Mimi 5 Bobee - Popcorn chicken. The packaging reminds me of walking around Taiwan...so authentic!! - Taiwanese Near Me - Diamond Bar, California

Mimi 5 Bobee is a mere 5-minute drive away from work for me, and it's become a frequent rotation for me when I go out to eat with my coworkers. It's a good lunch spot since they are fast in service and are reasonable cheap. It also comes with a drink, so I never have to battle internally how healthy do I want to be and whether if I should go for a boba tea drink or not. The staff here is no frill, but very friendly and accommodating still. I always go for their lunch combo, specifically asking for dry noodles and popcorn chicken. While lunch combo usually come with less food, I can never finish the food and am always bringing back leftovers. Can't complain and will definitely be back for more! read more

Great food and most friendly staffs. Love their weekly bogo drinks. You have to try their house special fried pork chops.

Very authentic Taiwanese restaurant! I've seen restaurants come and go but this one always here and continuously making improvements! Love their beef noodles soup with Tomatoes broth.

We came here to try the stinky tofu hot pot, and we also ordered the hakka pork belly, popcorn chicken, and pig ear. They were all delicious and it was more than enough food for us two since we had leftovers. The stinky tofu came in huge triangle chunks and I enjoyed that it wasn't sour like other ones I've had. The other meat items in the hot pot like intestine, tendon, and tripe were tender and flavorful. There wasn't much variety in the vegetables. I think it was mostly cabbage and a shitake mushroom, but it was a full pot overall. I haven't tried hakka pork belly before, so I didn't know it would have a sweet flavor. But I guess the vinegar is there to balance that out. I'd probably get that as a rice dish since it feels like more of a meal than a side. The popcorn chicken and pig ear were good, standard sides to have. I liked how homey the place felt and the servers were kind and efficient. Would definitely come back! read more

My work orders catering from them ALL the time and it is really such a hole in the wall. The food is DELICIOUS - pretty much the closest authentic Taiwanese restaurant you can find in the area. My go-to is the popcorn chicken with rice but I've also heard that the pork chop, beef noodle stew, and the stewed beef was good. Don't expect too much from here and you'll think the food is amazing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a traditional Asian-ran restaurant so never expect that service and ambiance will be 100% but the food is worth it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Friend recommeded Mimi 5 Bobee which is authenticated with Taiwanese crusine to us. We often visit 5 Bobee restaruant on Nogales in Rowland Heights. So we decided to give a try on this one in Daimond Bar. The food was pretty good here. Braised Meatballs w/Soy Sauce Rice ($14) was really good, it came with veggies, white rice, mapo tofu and braised meatballs, the combination was just prefect. It's good for the lunch with very good price. Mimi Stew Pork Chop w/ Rice ($13) was great, the pork chop was so delicious and tender, it's good for the lunch as well. Stew Seaweed ($7) was good. The stew bitter melon with Mei Chi ($12) was very unique and healthy. Over all we enjoyed the food at Mimi 5 Bobee. The service is good. Only thing that I'd like to suggest to the restaurant is that the lighting is kind of too dim to me. Maybe they can adjust the light brighter. We will definitely come back again to try other dishes and the Shaved Ice. read more

came in Saturday for lunch. got seated right away but it's pretty full. waitress was friendly enough. we decided to order beef stew noodle soup (saw great reviews) and a rice dish to share. when placing the order, waitress asked 'handmade noodles, correct?' we thought it was included in the price but it wasn't. after we're done, she asked if we'd like to order plum green tea it's buy one get one free, I asked if it's really sweet? she told us no. the pork belly was tender, sides were also pretty good. beef noodle soup was very flavorful as well and I like the handmade noodles. the drinks were sour (plum) for my taste but it came with jelly on the bottom. we joked that I asked not too sweet so now I've got sour drink. we were surprised to see the bill was almost $43?! turned out, handmade noodles were $2 extra. our bad since we didn't see the fine print on the menu (lots of words and hard to figure out the price). the so called buy 1 get 1 free plum green tea was: $4.50 as is $1 for large size $1 for honey $1 for aiyu jelly (none of the above were our selections during order). a $4.50 drink ended up charging us $7.50?! the food was flavorful, but we didn't appreciate the service to omit mentioning added charges. read more

Food was ok, definitely a bit greasy. Came here one day for their lunch special and it was just ok, nothing memorable. We both got the shredded pork combo.

Mimi 5 Bobee - Spicy Chicken and popcorn chicken at the back - Taiwanese Near Me - Diamond Bar, California

Diamond Bar has always been know for having some of the best Taiwanese food in the entirety of the Greater LA Area. And of these restaurants, I've always noticed the presence of Mimi 5 Bobee as one of the best ones around. From recommendations from friends to the amount of reviews on Yelp, their food always caught my eye. With that, I took a quick glance at their menu online and decided on a Fried Pork Chop Lunch Special Box which was 16 dollars before tax and came with a choice of Jasmine Green Tea or Wintermelon Tea. Picking up at the food at the Diamond Bar location on a Tuesday was pretty simple and I was in and out in a matter of minutes. Looking at the box for the first time, I have to say that the quantity was pretty large! With six thick pieces of pork, a spring roll, some rice noodles with veggies, what seemed like pickled ginger, an eggplant and onion medley, and a small helping of minced pork over rice, the box easily lasted for two meals. And though there was a diverse spread of food, they were each given in pretty good ratio too which is always a plus. Adding on the drink that is included with this 16 dollar lunch special, I would say the price to portion ratio for the Diamond Bar area is pretty good. Many other places could easily charge upwards of 17 to 18 dollars with the recent inflation, which made this deal stand out. The food was definitely authentic in all the right ways. But I felt the flavors of most food items were more muted than the typical places I frequent. Starting with the minced pork, I enjoyed the balance of fatty and lean pieces. However, the meat could have used just a tad more time absorbing the soy sauce. The spring roll was only 40% filled and was somewhat soggy by the time I got to it which was unfortunate. But flavorwise, the shell was perfectly savory and the vegetables inside were perfectly light. The noodle and vegetable medley accompanying the spring roll were also fresh and complemented the pork chop well. The addition of sliced shiitake mushrooms gave the vegetables an added depth and gave profile to the rest of the items in the box. On the other end of the box, I noticed that there were a few pieces of chicken underneath the medley of eggplant and onions. All of these items leaned more savory than sweet. And with the taste of chicken stock, this section of the box blended with the rice very well (especially the sauce). I would have wished for more chicken and less of the onions though. For last, the pork chop was good at best. The food initially looked like it would be crunchy and full of flavor. But after taking a bite, both the coating and the meat were both the same: somewhat soggy and pretty neutral in taste. I did appreciate the amount of pork with each piece. But because the outside tasted somewhat mushy and didn't have much flavor to it, it left me wanting more from my food. After my experience trying Mimi 5 Bobee, I'd argue that their Pork Chop Lunch Special Box deserves a high 3 out of 5. The portion was definitely the highlight of the meal, followed by the vegetable side dishes. But because the pork chop was soggy after only being in the container for about 5-10 minutes and did not pack much flavor, I'll more than likely try something else the next time I come back. In all, definitely give this place a try if looking for large quantities at a Taiwanese restaurant! read more
