Breakfast, lunch and dinner -- all well prepared. Egg white frittata was cooked to my request and very good. Companion enjoyed choosing an individualized omelet and was very satisfied. Manager was more attentive than our waitress, but it was a good experience.

We saw the big sign on the door that announced ownership change. That should have been a red flag to us and we should have left...no we should have ran the other way. But instead we ordered breakfast. We have been to Mimi's many times, and there breakfast fare has always been good, and service has been excellent. Things are... More

We had not been to a Mimi's for several years until a friend asked to meet us there for lunch in January. It was an excellent choice. This week we returned on our way to Palm Desert and the staff was very friendly and accommodating in organizing a soft diet for my partner who had oral surgery that morning. The... More

This was our first visit to a Mimi's, and having been to a few Bob Evan's we thought it was worth a visit. We were greeted pleasantly and the staff made us feel welcome. The food selection was excellent, having the Coq Au Vin and Pot Roast were very good. Would certainly go back to this location again. Actually we... More

I expected better quality food. I appreciate the chicken pot pies, real turkey dinners, but the fish was disappointing. It would be better not to offer mediocre meals.

Service with a smile but they don't check on you even when they didn't appear to be busy. Food was cold had to send it back. Had to ask for more water etc. when our food came back it was actually very good.

We have been to a number of Mimi's over the past two years and this one held to the same standards. Consistently good, and good value. The menu is huge and calorie counts are noted. I loved the tomato bisque and was even told what a secret ingredient was. But I'm not telling!!! Comfortable, clean, good food and good pricing... More

It's hit or miss. I enjoy the atmosphere, but food & service are average. My friends and I all love the corn chowder. The blue cheese and walnut salad is my go to entrée. I've tried a few pasta, chicken, and fish dishes - all of which have been mediocre. Best if you pop in for soup & salad lunch,... More

Good staff, decent prices and good food. The eggs bene is one of the best that I have came across. The only quirk was that they just add mix to regular milk to make their chocolate milk.
