We ate early, at 5, because we had a little with us. When we arrived, we were greeted warmly, seated quickly, and our server was amazing. The drinks were strong, the food was really good (do not skip the Caesar salad!), and even the dessert was exceptional. Everyone loved their food. I was the only person who has some recommendations. The side of broccoli seemed to just be frozen broccoli florets warmed up. It’s so easy to roast or otherwise make broccoli taste better. And I had the fish special which came with skin on. I wish I had been told that because I’m that person who does not like skin on my fish. I will say that it was crisp skin, and I know many people would have loved it. I just wasn’t loving it. Everyone else loved their food and there were six of us. Our server was excellent, warm and friendly. He took my godson’s order quickly and was very good at navigating an order from a 4 year old. It took a long time for the check to come because as it got later, it got busy. Overall, we’d go back again. I’d ask a few more questions about the special though and request the check when we ordered dessert instead of after.

We came for a birthday dinner for my wife. She loves their linguine And clams, always good. Others has Veal Picatta, Sand Dabs, Gnochi and a special seafood pasta. Everyone enjoyed their meals and the service was excellent. Great dining experience.

Excellent choice! Was a birthday dinner and couldn’t have asked for a nicer time.

One of our favorite restaurants in Palm Desert. Our Server, Joey, was fantastic. Our meals were excellent.

This has become a must visit when we travel here. Food is great, and our server Joey made us feel like family - not the first member of his family to make us feel that way. Looking forward to our next visit!

First time at Mimmo’s and was very impressed with the service and food. I been to many Italian restaurants here in the desert and food is way over priced. Mimmo’s prices were great and menu had way more of a variety of food choices. I had the chicken Marsala with mashed potatoes and carrots. Not a fan of cooked carrots but Mimmo’s carrots were unique and delicious. Also want to give a special thank you to the restaurant’s bus staff. They were very attentive and pleasant. The waiter could of been nicer especially towards the bus staff.

Service is excellent, food is so fresh and the best Veal Ravioli I’ve ever had!

This restaurant clearly takes pride in providing good service. We felt cared for and valued as customers. I left feeling like I’d dined at a family Italian restaurant back in my hometown in CT. The food was excellent and the house Pinot Noir did not disappoint. Highly recommend.

Mimmo’s has become my new favorite local Italian restaurant! Excellent food, great service, wide variety, and very fair prices! We will go back often.

Tried this place for the first time and while the food was good and the service even better, the loud "modern" music from elsewhere in the strip center was annoying and was much louder than the soft jazz being played over the restaurant speakers. I guess our mistake was dining outside, but with my pre existing conditions I am still taking every precaution to not catch Covid.
