    Green Goddess salad
    Marlene P.

    There is a distinct odor when you walk in, not unpleasant but sharp, pungent and hard to place sort of vinegar maybe onion it eventually dies down after being seated but then got strong odor of ash tray or upholstery from a smokers house. Guess the staff is nose blind. I ordered the green goddess salad. It said it had avocado pieces I didn't see them and very little chicken. It was good. When I walked in I noticed a wadded up napkin in a decorative rooster near the hostess area.

    Egg White & Veggie Omelet
    Mimi L.

    Ordered breakfast through uber eats on a Sunday morning. I was glad that the portions were big enough. I was really hungry after early morning gardening. We have tried veggie omelet with potatoes, sausage and scrambled eggs, also two muffins. The food was very comforting and the muffins were surprisingly tasty. A satisfying breakfast and we would order delivery from here again!

    I've been to fine dining restaurants with worse service this location! We were greeted with cheer, and our server Vanessa was delightful! She had such a fun and bubbly personality that instantly made us look forward to our next visit. The food is great too!! Really big portions. I also really loved all the attention to details in the decor, so pretty and cozy.

    dirty chai latte

    Some family and i visited for lunch on our way to a retreat and we left content. Our server was very friendly, and although their lunch rush was busy, he didn't seem flustered or as if he was trying to hurry up with our table at any point in our visit. Everyone's food came out at the same time and we all enjoyed our lunch. We ordered their muffin special they had going on and enjoyed our muffins as a late night snack! Although you can tell it's a little dated, it seems well kept. Thankful that our pit stop filled our tummy's and allowed us to start our retreat off right.

    I felt like having a waffle this morning, but it had to be crispy and light and airy, and I said let's go to Mimi's and there was the most perfect waffle with a biscoff cookie topping served by Lorena, our favorite waitress! She also recommended the new biscoff cappuccino that made me feel like it was my birthday!! And she's always ready to refill your cup no matter what! Perfect way to start a Saturday!

    Loved brunch here, love the vibes, the home ambiance, LORENA was an amazing host, on top of service for us, food was delicious. Service was amazing. Will definitely come back

    Tiramisu with a latte
    Alma R.

    Our go to place when craving yummy dessert. This time I had their Apple & Cherry Cobbler a la mode and hubby had their Tiramisu, both so delicious! I like trying their adult beverages at times and this night I had their White Russian. Went great with my dessert. The service is always friendly and super speedy. The ambiance seems to always be on the quiet side so it allows for perfect conversations.

    Amazing experience! Our waiter Lorena was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcomed. She checked on us often and made great recommendations. The food was delicious, but Lorena's great service really made the visit stand out. I'll definitely be coming back!

    This morning we had breakfast at Poached Kitchen -- and it's quickly become a regular for us…read more We used to go to their Downey location, but now that they've opened one in Whittier (only 10 minutes away ), it's our go-to. First off, the space is beautiful -- tons of natural light, great music, and an upbeat, welcoming vibe that's perfect for a breakfast spot. The staff is always friendly, attentive, and super helpful. Now, the food. I ordered the breakfast burrito -- it's ginormous and packed with potatoes, sausage, chorizo, cheese, and eggs. Super flavorful and honestly one of those meals where you just want to keep eating even when you're full. We also shared the blueberry ricotta pancake for the table and it was stellar. The blueberry compote wasn't overly sweet, and the ricotta balanced everything out perfectly. To drink, I tried the dulce de leche latte (I usually go for the vanilla), and it was so good -- definitely adding it into the rotation. My friend had the eggs Benedict and was raving about it too. Overall, this is such a solid breakfast spot -- great food, great service, great vibe. Definitely a regular for me.

That's the best reason to go to any restaurant right? However, we did not like to have to stand and wait outside to review a menu before we could be seated. (When you go to a restaurant, don't you enjoy sitting with your partner and discussing what's on the menu)? It was a hot day and we felt rushed to place an order to ensure we could get a seat inside. (Because if you know what you want, you basically walk around the people that are standing looking at menus). The chilaquiles was Very Good at $17 and $5 to add a protein. PS Please add carnitas as a protein option. My partner got Avacodo Toast. Very disappointed. One small poached egg on a giant thick slice of bread with a light smear of avocado just didn't meet expectations for $15. 5 star food, Chilaquiles 2 star food Avacodo Toast 5 star staff 2 stars for Fast Casual environment with Full Service restaurant pricing. Really overall a 3 star experience, but hopefully they can improve with constructive criticism.

When we arrived, the hostess notified us that they were accepting walk ups and reservations didn't matter. We waited over an hour to be seated. Initially, they sat us separately at two booths. This is unacceptable on Mother's Day when we were trying to celebrate our Grandmother. Thankfully, our waiter was able to clear a spot on the patio. Following being seated, the waiter did not come. I got up and asked if they could come to our table because we have two diabetic family members. The host I spoke with said he would send someone, but there was some attitude. Our waiter came and was kind, but the whole experience has been awful. We waited over an hour and twenty five minutes after being seated for our food to arrive, and they didn't bring it all out at once. My pancakes ended up having a hair in them and had to be sent back. We have since asked for a manager to come to the table 2x, and they have not come. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. It has ruined our last Mother's Day with our grandmother before she moves away later this year. Over two hours wasted total waiting to be seated and for our food to arrive.

This location is a little different, some of the menu & Happy Hour options vary, and it is much smaller inside, but they also have an outside patio to sit. The service was good, and quick. My daughter came for a specific sandwich that she loves, and said it was equally good at this location. I came for the chicken and waffles, I asked for tenders instead of bone-in chicken pieces, and unfortunately it was not as good as the Alhambra location. The battered coating is different and completely falling off of the tenders, the waffle was a little overcooked as well. The Alhambra location uses a panko crusted breading and it's so good and crunchy! I don't think I would return to this location.
