Mimi's has got the one thing that makes me happy - all day breakfast! But even if that's not what you're craving, there's definitely something on the menu that's you'll can find something craveable. From soups and salads to salmon and pasta, the do a great job on making sure you're eating well. Plus, they've got a great kids menu and some tasty beverages - and super friendly servers.
Five stars for handling business on Thanksgivivg! We obtained a reservation and saw the whole place humming. Every single person we saw working there was committed to service. They were all cheerful about the workload. The result was that we had a high quality dinner in a very pleasant atmosphere. It seems like the restaurant is well run from the bottom all the way to the top. Highly recommended!
Always a pleasant dining experience. The staff is so friendly, and the food is consistent every visit. Their muffins are fresh-baked and delicious. The restaurant has a relaxed, family-friendly feel. Great place for a cozy breakfast outing
I've been here twice in two months and both times I enjoyed the food, service and atmosphere. This last visit I had the Strawberry Lemonade and shared the Brioche Cheeseburger with my sister, as it was pretty big and neither of us wanted too much. It was my also my birthday weekend so I had Mimi's Bread Pudding (shared with others) and the Creme Brulee. It was all delicious and I enjoyed everything. Our host was very kind and courteous. And the venue has great seating options. On this visit we were on the outside patio which was beautiful on such a nice day as it wasn't too hot or cold out there. And they had umbrellas set up over us. It was perfect.
Atmosphere: for a Sunday afternoon it is perfect. Not too many people. Family oriented. Service: EXCELLENT!! Had server and other staff check in repeatedly. Food: I got the 3 course meal. Artichoke dip: excellent! Corn chowder (not shown). I ate it Main course: salmon, baked potato and broccoli Reason for 4 stars: not offered the Mimi’s bread. Salmon was a touch too salty for me. Baked potato looks great and they only offer - green beans or broccoli for vegetable.
The food and service were good. Their prices were pricey.
Great food, really calm ambient, relaxing, also great desert Lava Cake
This place is great!!! Feels like walking into Paris yet prices are decent a d there's so much of choices and variety of food to choose from. Very nice muffins too and ideal place for a breaky or brunch.
