    Lulas grelhadas (grilled squid)

    Excellent AUTHENTIC Portuguese food! Low-key atmosphere with a true Portuguese menu. Food was delicious and the portions were generous. The server gets bonus points for his recommendation of the bife a Micaelense....it did not disappoint with its savory molho (gravy). A hidden gem that made my difficult-to-please husband (because his mom is the best Portuguese cook!) and we will definitely return!

    The food is good & plentiful. The service was good, our waitress was attentive and recommended dishes. We started with calamari its was good. I had a steak with round fries. My husband had shrimp Mozambique with pasta which he enjoyed.

    Shrimp Mozambique/ creamy sauce and Shrimp Croquettes. Mozambique sauce is an excellent dipping sauce with any veggies and fries, SAVE IT !

    Cafe Mimo has quickly become my go-to Portuguese restaurant. I have enjoyed their daily and "lmited-time special" dishes. I would like to add another " new favorite " that is also available as a "limited- time special" , Manny Branco Pork Chops. My wife and I started our night with Shrimp Croquettes and Shrimp Mozambique with creamy sauce for our appetizers. Both dishes are excellent and the croquettes are homemade. A crispy outer shell with fresh shrimp and a delicious creamy sauce inside. As a guest exclaimed that we introduced to the croquettes on a different night, " These are to die for!". A great start for our main course. My wife ordered the T- bone steak and I was overjoyed to find that the forementioned pork chops were still available. I do not regularly buy pork chops or chicken at ANY restaurant for a very important reason, " I do not enjoy dried out meat ". Period. But I felt adventurous one night and the pork chops were recommended so I took a " leap of faith". I am so glad that I did. The pork chops ( 2 to an order) are served in a tangy sauce with red peppers that are cooked to perfection ! Words cannot describe how delicious this dish is. My wife was very satisfied with her steak and we didn't waste any time devouring our meals. Once the plates were empty and our attentive waitress asked if we were having dessert, we have what has become our traditional dessert and the perfect compliment to our excellent meals, two Expresso Martinis. We have both become connoisseurs of these cocktails and I am not exaggerating when I state that Cafe Mimo has the best ! If you know, you know. I will continue to be a regular customer at this fine restaurant and I will let you know when I find my " new favorite" .

    Pork Alantejana after two people had been served... huge portion!

    Picked up takeout, food was delicious, huge portions. Pork alantejana was huge. Steak was cooked perfect. Will order again soon! Kale soup was still hot when I get home.

    Being in New Bedford there are a multitude of good Portuguese restaurants. This being one of them. Located on 'the ave', there is usually always parking within one block of the area. The bar section is usually filled with loud Portuguese guys more than likely just out of work and arguing soccer but that just ups the authenticity, an I right? The food is great, at least on my experience. I almost always go with a steak because the sauce cannot be beat. I especially love coming here for a lunch of a steak sandwich with fries and a beer. Always good and very reasonably priced.

    Love mimos

    We held my Uncle's memorial here and they had a great spacious area for our big family. The service…read moreand detail to attention was superb and we were all very happy with that and the delicious food. Waitstaff was friendly and fast. I really enjoyed the class and caprese catered to my food needs!

    Went there last night for my wife's 65th birthday. Was able to scramble up my children so we all…read morecould spend the night having a dinner together. Made reservations for a specific table, when we got there, it was being used by other guests. Spoke to the hostess explained that we made made reservations for that table. Her condescending remark was., " do you want me to throw them off that table?" Because of the time there was no way to make reservations at any other establishment, so we decided to stay there, they sat us in a brightly lit area off from the main dining room. The food came out, extremely slow one at a time My wife's food was wrong. Sent it back, by the time everyone else was finished with their food. She still had not received her plate. Again called the hostess over to tell her to take it off the bill we are leaving. She said sorry it takes a while to cook baked scallops. Keep in mind this is at least 20 to 25 minutes later. She said, would you like to take that dish home, I said absolutely not. That's when she said in that case I will definitely take it off the bill! I would never go back to this place. I would never recommend this place, the food was at Best. OK the service was at Best OK. The hostess was condescending and cocky. My wife left that place in tears as she didn't even get to eat on her birthday.
