Best. Muffins. Ever. Love the cute cafe vibe, and the workers have been nice every time I have gone!

Food: 5/10 Ordered the salmon with potato au gratin and rice, the salmon was cooked well done it took some work to actually chew on a piece instead of the meat be tender and flaky. The potatoes were too greasy and tasted like leftover potatoes. Service: 7/10 We came after lunch rush but it still took some time to have someone and take our order as well as bring us enough utensils for the table. Our server was really nice though. Ambiance: 7/10 The place is designed so weirdly like there is a lot of space in the front when you walk in but cramped in the back where you actually ate. The tables and the seats were a little sticky and needs some more solid cushioning because it felt like we were sinking in our seats as we ate. read more

The atmosphere is friendly and the service professional and courteous. The food plentiful and delicious for the price.

Service is good food is trash Service was good, but the food was trash. Honestly expected way better for the price. Not somewhere I'd rush back to. read more

My husband has been eating here for years!! I started going about 4 years ago. The food is always good. But what keeps us coming back is the service. We love our girls. They go out of their way to make you feel at home. Now that he is on hospice care he is almost very close to being bed ridden. We try to order at least once a week just to let them know we are still alive. Thank you Mimi's staff for years of great service!! We love and miss you too read more

We really enjoy coming to Mimi's Cafe in Modesto. Super friendly staff (Nadia) is really nice too. The restaurant is really nice and love their seasonal decor. We will be coming back read more

Real terrible customer service. Went for breakfast today, got seated, waited for the waitress whom was a middle aged blonde lady to get me and company a beverage and never even acknowledged us. Just would walk by not giving us eye contact, very rude and unprofessional waitress. After 10 minutes we got up and left. Thanks Mimi's of Modesto for the awful service. Do not eat here!!!!! read more

I have been a fan of MiMis for a while. They have gone through ups and downs over the years but recently have really done a great Job. I encourage you to visit the Modesto Location and try the burger as it is excellent. Most of the servers are really good and it's always a short wait. Good Ambiance and always clean including the restrooms. The Turkey dinner is great just make sure you request it to be extra hot. I also like the Quarter chicken and finally you cannot go wrong with the breakfast. Take a look at my burger and consider ordering it the same way. I always put sauce on the side. read more

Mimi's Cafe - Crab eggs Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Modesto, California

Staying in Modesto for business. This restaurant looked interesting. I arrived earlier in the week at 8:00pm which was closing time. As I grabbed the door handle a worker grabbed it from the other side and pulled and locked it. The manager responded by giving me a business card and asked me to come back. I did tonight. It was mediocre at best. I had turkey Stuffing, green beans and mashed potatoes. Not real turkey but the processed type. Also had a lemonade and crème broulet for dessert. Bill was $40. Service was mediocre. I waited 20 minutes after asking for my bill. I'll most likely not be back. read more

Absolutely the best breakfast I have had hands down. Passing thru on my way to Fresno stopped to get a bite. Wanted to try it because it looks like a cute little grandma house on the outside. Parking lot was full expected a wait but they took us right away. Waitress took our drink order within 10 mins. After ordering our food was out within 15 mins. Ok I'm not a breakfast person but I finished every bit of my food. It was soooooo good. I got the farmhouse tacos. The country potatoes were perfectly crisp. The taco shells soft and crispy at the same time. Definitely recommend. Everyone was super nice and friendly. Chef Miguel out did himself. read more

First time here and the breakfast was delicious. I had the couscous and egg salad. It was light yet hardy. The service was excrement and the prices were reasonable, just like any other restaurant. I highly recommend. read more

Sooo--normally I love Mimi's Cafe of Modesto for their food and mimosas but their take out service was less than stellar today. After several attempts at phone calls being unanwered throughout the late afternoon/evening on Wednesday to finally have it answered by a gentleman who took my order, understanding that my daughter was picking it up sometime after 3 on Friday, I placed an order for Mother's Day. Fast forward to pickup time today (Friday after 3 PM) and there is no evidence of my order being placed, complete with credit card # to be used at pickup so it could be my gift to my daughter. Instead, she got personnel who chose to ignore her and act as though she was an imposition to their chatting among themselves about Harry Potter rather than try to figure out the problem. They also told her they did not take cards over the phone. So much for customer service. Disappointed. We're choosing to eat elsewhere for Mother's Day. read more

Great food and great service a great atmosphere in general, great muffins as well !!!

Suzi was great! She was attentive and sweet and the food was amazing! Will definitely be back!!

Always a regular stop for us if we're craving a late brunch. Super quick to be seated, usually pretty quiet. Our waitress Daisy was great, very helpful & got us everything we needed. Also, Suzie was a gem, really sweet! Such an overlooked spot in Modesto read more

The service was great from our server Susie she allowed us to have sit and chat to have a fun girls brunch but was still attentive to our needs. Food was also yummy. We will be back to enjoy another girls brunch! read more

Went here as a family for Mother's Day and had a horrible experience. First off, waitress forgot my moms coffee, we had our soup and salad and still no coffee. Then our food took 1hr and 20 minutes to come out, and when it did, half of it was cold and all they did was put it in the microwave. Then I had to wait another 20 minutes for my dessert, which consisted of strawberries drizzled with chocolate...not sure how that takes forever to come out. Sure they apologized a time or two for the wait but then they charged us completely full price. As someone who works in a restaurant, at least comp a drink or something. So disappointing. read more

Why did they take out all the decor and charm? Very weird. Go back to what it was intended to represent, a French bistro with fresh ingredients. read more

Delicious! It's been a minute since we dined here since it's across town from us. We forget how yummy it is. We went for lunch and will return soon for dinner! Our server was Suzie and she was very attentive and offered suggestions to make our lunch taste better. I highly recommend Mimi's!! read more

The staff are very patient with customers. The food is well-presented and delicious. Mimi's feels warm and welcoming with great energy as soon as you enter those doors. Daisy was an amazing worker and full of energy! read more

Great food and service. Not too crowded on a Thursday morning. Portion is enough to take home to go. Would come again.

French themed food and decor and music. Classier than your average perkos or dennys. Different variations of eggs Benedict... which I love! We really enjoy coming here for breakfast and brunch! read more

Wonderful service! Loved our breakfast and the relaxing atmosphere. We will definitely be back

Lipstick on cup. Cutlery looked dirty. Rubbery chicken. Uncooked baked potato. Ambiance is old school (nice way for saying it's not renovated) A great place for older people who just want to chill and are nostalgic about this chain. The carrot muffin is pretty good though. read more

The service and food were great here!! We will definitely be coming back. Susie was a great server and ver attentive! Overall a great breakfast experience here! read more

Service was incredible and the food never disappoint! Our waitress was extremely nice and kept checking in on us!

We love Mimi's, but we usually go for breakfast, and there is nothing with a small portion size. I am diabetic and usually get eggs, bacon and sausage, but here, I still have to pay for the potatoes, toast or muffin which I cannot eat. Other places serve me just what I ask for and we can have breakfast for around $30. At Mimi's, it's hard to get out for under $50, and I just end up taking a lot of food home that ends up in the trash. read more

Such a gem. Breakfast all day. Huge menu. Everything is sooo good and unique. We sat at the bar and had a great brunch. Excellent drinks - we love the decorations for Valentines Day. read more

See all

I have to say I am extremely disappointed with my luncheon experience at this location. For the most part of my past visits, they have been positive with the exception of the Sunday's visit (05/29/2022). Our server, Jessica, really didn't give a crap about her work. We barely saw her throughout the lunch hour, she considers "fries" that came with my sandwich as garnish and when I asked her if I was able to substitute my fries for something else, she said she didn't know if it was possible. She said "I don't know. I just work here and take orders". Her own words. I have always thought this kind of response from something from a movie. The only time Jessica was quick on her feet was when we asked for our check. Not even a minute when she returned with the check. It was obvious she was ready to get rid of us. I gave three stars only because the food has always been consistent with quality and temperature. Price: $$ Quality: A +++ Service: F - Will we return? Mostly due to their awesome buttermilk spice muffins and French onion soup. read more

I love the friendly service and the muffins! Specially around this season the pumpkin muffin is so good and I don't even like pumpkin. The food always taste so good and the service is very fast, they're on point with all of your refills. I love it. read more

Mimi's Cafe - Malted Waffles - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Modesto, California

Still my favorite! Don't get to this side of time much since moving to Oakdale. We made the trip just for Mimi's and boy was it worth it. Great food, great service and friendly staff! Before retiring as an elementary school principal I brought 6 principal's award students once a month. The staff, including the manager, always made my very low income kids feel so special and never charged. read more
