Our dining experience was outstanding in every aspect—meal, wine, and service alike! Maddie, our server, was exceptionally knowledgeable. She had an impressive grasp of the wine list, menu details, and the culinary techniques behind each dish. Her expertise truly enhanced our evening. We are already looking forward to our next visit!
Never disappointed with Mimi’s Resturant. The food, service, and ambiance always delivers an enjoyable experience. We are fortunate to have such a great restaurant in Tallahassee.

Two thumbs down!!! It takes a lot for me to feel the need to go out of my way to leave a negative review. Had a 7pm reservation tonight and arrived 10 minutes early. We were seated right away. The atmosphere was nice and our waiter was pleasant. We ordered before the person sitting next to us sat down as he waited on his wife. At 745 we still had not received our entrees. The person next to us that was waiting on his wife ordered, wife arrived, had dinner and paid while we waited. I ordered the pork chop which was exactly what the man next to me ordered 10-15 minutes after me. I assumed it was pure coincidence that the chef came out and spoke to the tables beside us and behind us but didn't speak to us. (I'm still going to chalk that up, and give him the benefit of the doubt as pure coincidence and unrelated). Finally after almost an hour I told the waiter Joseph that we would pay for our drinks and appetizer and be on our way. He was very apologetic and checked on our food 4 times. He came back and said that they would comp our meal and box up the entees to go. I wasn't looking for anything free, but I appreciated the gesture. We went and got burgers from a fastfood restaurant. Once we got in, I decided to at least taste the food tonight since it was my first time trying the restaurant. To our final dismay, the order was still wrong. We ordered pork chops and Lasagna, they ended up boxing up Pork Chops and chicken. The Pork Chop was tough and the chicken was okay, but not what we ordered. I can't even make this up. The atmosphere was nice, the waiter was pleasant, but our experience was one of the worse in a long time. Based off of the reviews that I read, I was super excited to try it out. Very much a let down. Pretty sure we won't be back.

A Comforting First Visit: Chicken, Green Beans, and Mashed PotatoesOn my first visit to the restaurant, I was drawn to a classic comfort meal: tender chicken seasoned with herbs, crisp green beans, and creamy mashed potatoes. Each dish brought a sense of home to the table, simple yet satisfying.The chicken was juicy and flavorful, the green beans were fresh and perfectly seasoned, and the mashed potatoes were smooth and comforting. This trio wasn’t just food; it felt like a warm welcome, reminiscent of childhood meals.During this visit, I learned about the staff’s kindness through a special story. My wife, during a hospital stay, was offered a taste of the restaurant’s Ratatouille, a gesture that brought her comfort and joy in a tough time. This act of kindness highlighted the restaurant’s commitment to not just great food but also to making a difference in people’s lives.This experience, my first time dining here, reminded me of the simple pleasures of a well-cooked meal and the power of food to bring comfort. I look forward to returning and exploring more of what the restaurant has to offer.

The service and atmosphere was excellent, but food.. I ordered Australian Lamb Shank, and tiramisu. The lamb was almost tasteless, as was the couscous. Tiramisu (if you can call it tiramisu) was like melted ice cream with some biscuits, 2 cookies that were for a better presentation drowned. Maybe I’ll come back someday and order other items, maybe it was just not a good day)

Classy, quiet, calm vibe and excellent food. Steak was cooked perfectly. Lamb dish was good, maybe 7/10, would be better with less of a gravy sauce and more of a fruited reduction. But...the flounder was killer!! What a beautiful, light dish! And the desserts are definitely worth saving room for. All of them.This place is a gem.
Waiting an hour to get our food. I ordered the filet medium. It showed up very well done. I could have used it as a door stopper. I shared the short ribs with my wife because I didn't want to wait another hour. The ribs were not great either. Got the bill and the steak was on the bill. I didn't eat any of it. When I asked to have it removed, I got attitude! I will never come back here. Way too expensive for the quality of food.

Happy, Friendly Restaurant with interesting dishes. I’d order it again but if your expecting classic French ratatouille, the mouse is still in the alley. The ratatouille fettuccini is a Mideast, Mediterranean version with a light Alfredo sauce for the pasta. I’ve run into this version in a few places lately so it must be gaining some traction. I still prefer the mouse.
Food was excellent! Perfectly seasoned. The rest of my party both ordered the filets abd they were also cooked to perfection. Service was exceptional.

This was our first visit though we've lived here for decades. Celebrating our 34th anniversary and wanted to try something new. We were not disappointed. Excellent, efficient, prompt service on a Friday night with reservations. I ordered the flounder, hubby ordered the lamb shanks. Soo delicious! Chef came out and visited each table. Will definitely return for special occasions. Yum!

Lived here for a year and finally made it in. Apps and Entrees were delicious, and having local cold beer available didn't hurt. Will put Mimi's in the rotation for sure, highly recommend!

Had dinner here with my son when I took him back to school. Wow. The food was amazing. Get the Focaccia. It was delish and unusual.
