This score would be a 5 if the service had been as good as the food. It was quite when we were there, about 3 in the afternoon, and the service was below average. Both my husband and myself have worked in the hospitality industry so we understand some of the things that can effect service. That being said, the food will have us going back.
Completely terrible staff from the waitress, the chef, and the manager working there. Mother’s Day was a complete disaster for brunch. The “tomato soup” was inedible essentially just chunky Tabasco sauce. Forgot our drinks, desserts, hardly noticed we were even there to begin with. No accommodations, and to top it all off they couldn’t find our receipt in the end and argued with us on what we ordered.
First time here, having breakfast. So far so good. My server is awesome. Her name is Saudi. Very friendly and so nice. I definitely will come back here to have a breakfast!!
The meat was undercooked and full of layered fat and grissle. The cabbage, potatoes and carrots were undercooked and chewy. We each had the same experience. Obviously a no care kitchen.
I went for breakfast ? great serviceAmazing food, I even asked for an iced mocha latte and they delivered. Not expensive either. Definitely recommend this place. ?
Went to get breakfast on a Thursday. It wasn't packed. We were attended immediately. Grabbed some mimosas and I ordered the pain perdu with mixed berries. Highly recommend. It was delicious.
We waited 20 min for service, then 37 min for our food. The place was 1/3 occupied. The food was less than good + my dish looked bad (so far away from the picture of it). Also, it is supposed to be with FRESH berries, but they were defrosted and tasteless. Restrooms are disaster as well. We're so disappointed and will not recommend this place.
Very nice looking restaurant, prices are a bit expensive but questionable for the size. Flavor... well now that's another issue all on its own...it's certainly lacking. The service was nice, she seemed very a bit friendly. Restaurant was pretty empty.
My son and I went for an early dinner that night. The place was pretty much empty and service was prompt. My son wanted cinnamon french toast, I wanted to try chicken pot pie.My son received his french toast and was disappointed; what he received looked like Texas toast, not cinnamon rolls. He is not a complainer so he ate it, looking at your menu later I realized that he probably received the brioche french toast instead. The item was described as french toast grande on the receipt.I had the chicken pot pie; and here I am tempted to go off on one of those snide reviews, the type you may encounter on Amazon.The description on Mimi’s menu is as follows;“CHICKEN POT PIE Freshly baked with roasted chicken, peas, carrots, onions and potatoes folded into a creamy herb sauce. Topped with a flaky crust.”There is a little fork icon behind this description; I did bother to look up what that meant. A returning favorite. Sounded good.When she put the plate on the table, I felt my jaw drop. What on earth was that? I did not recognize it. I may have asked her “is this chicken pot pie?” but I am not sure if I did, since I was just baffled to see the concoction put in front of me. I may have been speechless, I had never, I swear, never seen anything like it. I recall looking around me to see if people were eyeing me, if there was a hidden camera, because the joke sure was on me.Once more the description: “Freshly baked with roasted chicken, peas, carrots, onions and potatoes folded into a creamy herb sauce. Topped with a flaky crust. “What I received: a deep plate filled with a somewhat runny filling, and something that looked like a perfectly round pancake floating on top.Now I have eaten chicken pot pie before. I have made it. You layer a dish with pastry, fill it with your filling , and cover it with more pastry. Some egg wash, bake it off. That is chicken pot pie. I should not have to give you examples of who all makes good ones but Carrow’s comes to mind. Marie Calendar’s , not so much.This thing I received was not like that. It was a heated filling,with lots of rubbery chicken, not baked, thrown in a plate and then, as an afterthought, topped with a floating, patty- like crust, and it was painfully obvious that this perfectly circular crust came from a box. This may have been the baked element. If that is what the “freshly baked” pertained to, you should have put that in front of the word “crust”.I ate it. It was not bad. I had to be careful to take measured bites of the crust, so I would have some semblance of balance between filling and pastry. You could not just dive in with wild abandonment, like with a normal chicken pot pie. It took some math and I missed the expected bottom layer; I am used to twice as much crust. While cutting the crust, I worried that I would have problems with the whole tough, floaty thing coming up, or getting squashed in the plate and the plate overflowing; none of this happened. Plus, there was that hidden camera feeling..I should not have to worry about these things. Chicken pot pie is comfort. It is safe, gooey chicken goodness .Seriously, this menu item is an embarrassment. It does not even remotely resemble home cooking, it screams “commissary filling from a bag” and “box pastry”. This is not what I expect from this restaurant. I know that in reality is not all food in restaurants is home cooked but this presentation is, well frankly, pathetic. You are supposed to feel warm and fuzzy after eating chicken pot pie. I felt cold and unloved.In spite of the mistake she made with the French toast, I liked my waitress. The crème brulee was excellent. So it was not a complete loss.I am looking at the reviews and realize I am not the only one... RIchard Jimenez, another local guide described the exact same baffled reaction when he first saw the the chicken pot pie! So no, it is not me.I notified Mimi's that I had reviewed them; no reaction....getting a lot of that lately.
The place looks nice. Unfortunately our server was not welcoming, warm or inviting. Her body language was standoffish, she never even gave us her name and proceeded to poker face formality like if we don’t “fit in” in that part of town so we kept the meal to a bare minimum ordering mostly sides and never got to try out their delicious looking menu. We left quickly and also kept the tip to a minimum. I wish we had been received with a smile and introduction with a name like most other places. Oh well, can’t have it all
