When you are looking for a 10, look no further than Sweet Mimi's. Everything here is made with love, whether you've got a hankering for something sweet or savory. My suggestion is to get here early to avoid the wait. However if you end up on the waitlist, they will text you when your table becomes available. Trust me, it is definitely well worth it. The hardest part is making a decision between having a house made baked goodie or a savory dish. So so many options to choose from! The good thing is that if you're truly on the fence, you can always grab a goodie to go once you've enjoyed this delicious experience. This morning my wait was about 10 minutes which gave me time to look over the menu and admire all the baked goods in their display case. I ordered their well known signature lemon ricotta pancakes with fresh blueberries and blueberry compote, an Italian sandwich with prosciutto, garlic spinach, fresh mozzarella, eggs, sliced tomato, pesto on a grilled rosemary ciabatta. Oh, I almost forgot but I also had to have a side order of grilled cheddar home fries for two and wow! It was heavenly and my breakfast came with a small side of appealing and sweet fresh fruit. The establishment is adorable and cozy and just so cute. The waitstaff here is warm and attentive. You will be blown away with whatever you order as their attention to detail is just spectacular. I highly recommend and you will just love love the food and just the entire dining experience here!!!!

Food and service are excellent. No reservations. You get on the list when you arrive and they tell you how long it will be. Pastries and coffee are delish. My faves are the grilled cheese special sandwiches. The ambiance is being packed into a place that you know people are enthusiastic about

Sweet Mimi's is the ultimate brunch spot in Saratoga. Everything is made with love from Chef Jeannette. There does seem to be more sweet based dishes on the menu than savory so if you're a savory fan have that in mind. This visit, we didn't get the biscuits but I HIGHLY recommend ordering the biscuits that come with jam and butter. It's a tiny restaurant so it can be cramped and noisy when it's full which is always but I would choose sweet Mimi's again and again over other places in Saratoga.

We chose this restaurant based on Yelp reviews and it didn't disappoint! Sweet Mimi's is a cute and tiny, maybe 10 tables. They clearly also do a lot of bakery business in addition to dine in. We decided to share the lemon ricotta pancakes and a share an omelette. Our waitress was helpful and gave us good advice. Our food came out promptly and was hot. It was definitely big enough to share and we enjoyed every bite. We grabbed some muffins and desserts for later. I would love it if this little diner was close by as it could be a favorite.

Incredible spot!! Pro tip: get there early or be prepared to wait. While it is worth the wait, the earlier you get there, the less likely you are to have to put your name on the waiting list. The good thing is though that they'll text you when your table is ready and they'll give you 10 minutes to return so you don't have to stand there. Their pastries and breakfast items are to die for. You truly can't go wrong with anything you order! If you don't have time to wait or don't want to, go in and grab some pastries to-go from their pastry counter. When I visited on a Saturday morning, I got there just before 9 am and waited 10 minutes for a table for two. I ordered the pumpkin cranberry French toast bake, which was topped with cranberries, vanilla Gelato and cinnamon whip cream. It was absolutely delicious! Since it was so rich, I took most of it home, which was great so I could enjoy it a second time. My boyfriend got the breakfast burrito and absolutely loved it. It was so cheesy and filled with home fries, and came with pico de gallo and guacamole on the side. We also split the homemade biscuit with raspberry jam, which was delicious. I can't recommend Sweet Mimi's enough! From the food to the service, everything is exceptional.

Sweet Mimi's Cafe definitely lives up to the hype. The wait could be long but you're in a shopping district and can walk around while you wait for your table. The food is totally worth the wait! We had a "3 meal for two" kind of breakfast. Savory and sweet and their French toasts are THE BEST! We got the apple cinnamon French toast. Dining room is small but very cute!

This place was very packed and had a wait to it, which enticed me more to check out the place. Sweet Mimi's did not disappoint. I went here for a pit-stop brunch while driving up to Canada. I'm glad my partner and I chose this place to dine. The staff was super friendly, I was having a bad day at the moment, but the cheerfulness from the waitress made me feel a lot better. The food was very good, we got the lemon ricotta blueberry pancakes and the bistro sandwich. The pancakes has an amazing hint of lemon and plenty of blueberries that covered the plate. I was hoping to have a dollop of whip cream on the top, but the side of blueberry syrup will do. The sandwich was a great choice brunch and they made my eggs-over-easy perfectly, I love runny yolks. The cheddar home fries were very good! We got an order "for one" and it was enough for the both of us, would recommend this dish a 100%. Although it was very crowded inside, it was cramped and everyone wasn't talking over each other. The front counter definitely invites you to order some pastries. Would visit this place again :)

I was in town for one night for a work trip. My best friend grew up in the area and suggested this for breakfast. Even though it was a Friday morning (during race season) there was a line of probably nearly 25 people by the time they opened at 8. Fortunately I'd gotten there 15-20 minutes early and was first in line so got in and out quickly before my meeting. Portions were huge and everything was top notch. The only thing I'd say was I wish the potatoes were a little more well done. Would absolutely be a place I'd come back to, even to the point I might plan a trip to the area with my wife just so we could come here.
