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.

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!

Based on all of the positive reviews, I was excited to try this place out. Unfortunately, either all of the positive reviews on here are fake or diners in Tallahassee have no idea what good food tastes like! Or what fine dining is all about. Presentation was good for the most part, but taste and quality was substandard and the level of customer service one would expect for the amount being charged per plate is non-existent. I have better service from national chains at a quarter of the price. Staff was welcoming and the interior is nice, but the food is just meh and you get the feeling that management just doesn't care if you enjoy your meal or not. We ordered the bread and fritto misto appetizers. The bread was good, the fritto misto tasted old and overcooked. Like it had been refried or something. Tiny pieces of calamari, some tough and chewy and others that were dry and rock hard. artichoke hearts were obviously canned and sauce was NOT spicy at all. I had the pork chop, which "looked" awesome. Sides were good, mashed potatoes and green beans. BBQ sauce was on point, and first bite tasted great, but it was stone cold. Server took it back to toss it back on the grill, but left the sides and just took the pork chop. 10 mins later, after I was done with sides, pork chop came back and was the temp it should have been, meaning nice and warm! Unfortunately I only had a couple of good bites as the rest of the chop was all fat! I kid you not, you can actually see that the middle of the chop is just fat! Chef conveniently cover the fat with the sauce so it wouldn't be obvious at first glance. Well server came to clear table and noticing most of the chop in pieces in my plate, apologized for this, but that was it. No supervisor ever came over to check in, no offer to fire up a new chop or comp anything or even "here's a dessert on the house" for the fact that you ate alone and are leaving hungry. This place is Smoke and Mirrors! A mediocre restaurant that wants you to believe it's a highly rated fine dining one so it can overcharge for it's food. Will definitely not be returning and do not recommend anyone waste their time or money here. There are much better places out there, hell Carrabba's is 1/3 the price and much better quality and service if something goes wrong! No, seriously...it really is!
