“Not one of my favorites.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 April 2013

My wife enjoys this place and I can see why. It's a full-on dip into the estrogen pool! I'm just not into this restaurant. The surrounding area to the north is run down and slummy. Seating was slow. We went there on a Sunday for dinner and waited over half an hour. Not because they were crazy-busy but because service... More

Lot's of food! They have great coffee drinks for being a family restaurant. It was nice that they offer a healthy section also.

“The worst food I've ever had!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 March 2013

On a business trip, myself and some colleges found ourselves at Mimi's Cafe on valentines day as the other restaurants we would normally go to we're full with a wait of up to 1.5 hours. Mimi's fitted us right in which should've told us then. Our server was a very nice and friendly young man but that is where the... More

“Took Forever”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 February 2013

The food was fine, but the service was terrible. After waiting for over an hour to be seated, it took fifteen minutes to get the rolls promised. Everything was very slow. The staff was pleasant and kept thanking us for our patience which, actually, we lost long before being seated.

“Great place for breakfast”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2013

We went there for breakfast on a Sunday. The place was packed. It was worth the short wait. They have a great breakfast menu with the traditional items and many specialties. The service was good considering they were very busy. The have a wide range of muffins to choose from during the day. It was clean and the wait staff... More

“Great and Interesting Food”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2013

There are some restaurants that hold my interest every time we go back. Mimi's is like that. They have a different variety of food on the menu from the average and it is done well. Yesterday we had a wheat, honey muffin that was to die for. It is a great place for breakfast or lunch.

“Family Atmosphere”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 December 2012

The restaurant appears clean and well maintained, and the service is friendly. They made a small error when making one of our drinks, so they gave us some fresh carrot bread to take home with us as an apology - a really nice touch! The food was good and the prices reasonable. We definitely will eat there again.

“Food”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 November 2012

This is somewhat an upscale restaurant the food is excellent and is served in a timely fashion. Your off peak experience will be better at this place, peek hours do not allow you to take in the full scope and the complete atmosphere
