Kimmie's Coffee Cup — Restaurant in Anaheim

I've been a regular at Kimmie's Coffee Cup for over four years now, and the food has always been outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and consistently great. Unfortunately, the service leaves much to be desired. Wait times are long, and one server in particular (a middle-aged blonde woman) often comes across as cold and dismissive, with occasional underhanded remarks.

My spouse and I aren’t easily offended, and the food has always made up for it, but our recent experience was the final straw. We arrived for breakfast around 11:30 and were seated by the hostess after a 15-minute wait. After another 15 minutes with no service, my spouse had to flag someone down just to get menus and place our drink order. The server, seemingly irritated by this, brought the menus, and another server—the same rude individual mentioned earlier—came over and curtly informed us she was running behind, as though our attempt to get service was out of line.

Despite waiting another 15 minutes, our order was never taken. Other tables, including one seated after us, were served before us. Frustrated, we decided to leave.

Thankfully, this led us to discover Late Da on Weir Canyon near Ralphs. The breakfast was fantastic, and the service was impeccable. It’s safe to say this will be our new go-to spot for...

Today my friend ordered the Irish Benedict while I had the corned beef hash.

Enjoyable ambience and the staff is super friendly, I have zero complaints.

We both enjoyed our meals overall, though I have one significant concern that I hope the owners will address with their kitchen staff.

My main issue is one I encounter at most breakfast restaurants in the 21st-century. It's the hollandaise sauce. True hollandaise should be made from scratch using egg yolks, butter, salt, lemon juice, and white pepper.

Unfortunately, most places now use some kind of product that may or may not have been doctored up rather than preparing fresh hollandaise. This shortcut really detracts from what could otherwise be an excellent dish. But if the average customer doesn't or can't recognize real hollandaise, maybe it doesn't matter, so long as the cluelessly customers are happy, but don't call it hollandaise if you're a chef with integrity.

That said, the corned beef hash was delicious. The addition of grilled onions and bell peppers were a nice touch that el evated the dish. The coffee was also quite good - solid diner quality that paired well with the meal.

I would definitely return to this restaurant, but the hollandaise issue is something I find increasingly frustrating across...

We arrived at Kimmie's during what should have been a solid morning rush on a Sunday, but the location is set back in the corner of a shopping center - and it was the best experience I have ever had at one of her locations.

I am a die hard Orange Circle Kimmie's diner, whenever my wife and I visit we always go to OCK, but this trip? We found this hidden gem.

No rush - seated right away - and drinks brought out within minutes. All around/before 10am.

We had the breakfast quesadilla and the breakfast burrito - both of which were massive! The quesadilla essentially was my wife's burrito just flattened. Left super full and had no complaints whatsoever.

I'm not sure what these negative reviews are about, but our experience was phenomenal. That's no bias for loving Kimmie's, it was just that good. The coffee was great too, and I drink it black with two sugars. Plain as can be - not a...
