We stopped by after school for lunch and milkshakes today 3/18 and this place did not disappoint! The food was fresh and hot. The burger was juicy and full of flavor. The club sandwich was so good! So good my teen stole my plate lol. My little ones enjoy their chicken tenders and milkshakes. The milkshakes were delicious!! The service was great, our server was very attentive and brought everything we needed. He definitely made our experience more enjoyable. The restaurant is a wonderful trip back down memory lane with the vintage vibe.

If you are craving for an old school American diner foods, Ruby's is a interesting spot that brings back those classic vibes, since something like this is getting harder to find these days with the rise of more trendy fusion spots. On a hot day, it's good way to cool down yourself with an ice cold milkshake. The Oreo cookie shake is sweet, creamy, and hits the spot, while the mint milkshake has a refreshing flavor that stands out. Service is warm and friendly, as most customers are local and seems know the servers very well. Food wise, the prices lean a little high for the quality, but it's still enjoyable. The French fries are crispy and satisfying, and kids enjoy their cheeseburger and Mac and cheese. People also came here during classic car gatherings, which is a fun local event. While milkshake contains too much sugar for both adults and kids, but once in a while, why not treat yourself?

The really big breakfast

This place is amazing. The people are really nice and help. Great for breakfast or lunch.

Yummy

The onion rings were perfect and hot!! The patty melt was delicious and hot too. I would order this again. The service was great!!

Excellent service. Turkey burgers so delicious. Fries so crispy and hot not like fast food fries. Chocolate and Stawberry shake very delicious. Please keep this establishment open. Whittier needs this traditional restaurant.

Peanut butter cup milkshake

We came during an off hour and it was great! Our server was really nice and made sure my friend's gluten allergy was taken care of. I got the swiss mushroom burger and it was good. The peanut butter milkshake was also delicious and really big.

For my first time coming here, it was a wonderful experience. Their customer service was also…read moreamazing. We came 20 minutes before they closed and they did whatever they can to serve us. Their food was also amazing, especially their chilaquiles. Also the ambiance in here is small but it shows a lot of a country type vibe. Overall 5 stars to this place.

I was in Whittier today for an appointment and of all the research I did, this was the best rated…read morebreakfast spot in town, and after visiting it today, I can see why. I met the owner during my visit, and he was extremely friendly and funny. This rest of the staff was also extremely polite and very accommodating, and not the sort of friendliness I usually get here in Santa Monica or West LA in general. Inside is very small, so you may have to wait a little bit for a booth like we did. We were @ party of 2 for a 10AM brunch and the wait was 10 minutes, but it was definitely worth it. There is also a large free parking lot attached right in front, so parking was super easy and close. The menu is also gigantic and filled with all sorts of American and Mexican classic breakfast options. For my meal, I ended up going with the Chili Cheese Omelette and added avocado and chorizo. We also shared a biscuit on the side, and all of it was great. The coffee was strong and I would also suggest that. I would definitely recommend if you are in the area or passing through, like we were. I will be back again in the future next time I am in town at breakfast.

Mimo's Cafe is one of those local spots in Whittier that I'm always happy to come back to! I love…read morethe atmosphere, and I always choose to sit outside it's such a nice little setting. Whenever I have a client or someone I need to meet in Whittier, this is one of the first places I suggest. Whether you're stopping by for breakfast or lunch, they never disappoint. The customer service is always top-notch, which makes the experience even better. Definitely a local favorite of mine, and I'll continue coming back!

I've been coming here for quite a while because it's within walking distance of my home, and I…read moregenuinely love the atmosphere. The older gentleman who I believe is the owner is always friendly, welcoming, and attentive. He's one of the main reasons I keep coming back. Unfortunately, my experience with the woman who takes orders and rings customers up has been very inconsistent. I'm not sure if she's his wife or daughter, but her attitude is often so rude that I find myself dreading the ordering process. While she occasionally has good days, most of my interactions with her have felt unfriendly, dismissive, and unnecessarily unpleasant. It's disappointing because I truly enjoy this café and want to continue supporting it. The food, location, and atmosphere keep me coming back, but customer service is a huge part of the experience. I hope this feedback is taken constructively because I'd love to see the service match the warmth and hospitality that the owner consistently provides.
