Went for breakfast. Really good mimosas. They give you a full personal little bottle of champagne with each glass and oj was good. Great value and you can top off your own. Had chicken and waffles and fried potatoes. Chicken was "tenders" strips and a little dry, possibly too long under a warmer. Waffles were good. Potatoes were a bit dry but hot and good flavor. I'd go again for mimosas but try something more interesting to eat. read more

We have been going to Mimi's for many years. It has steadily gone downhill. Today was probably the final straw. The server brought two hot dinner rolls. They were good, but teensy little container of butter and no carrot raisin bread. They aren't doing that anymore. I ordered strawberry lemonade. Turned out there are no refills for a glass of Minute Maid strawberry lemonade. It's not like it's real lemonade. I ordered a dish that I had never tried before, Rustic Chicken with Artichokes. Nowhere did it mention that it was mostly mashed potatoes. Didn't even mention mashed potatoes. Dried, overcooked chicken on a large pile of mashed with various vegetables in a rather non-existent sauce. The artichokes mentioned, were also almost non-existent. Possibly one artichoke heart, leaves only, sprinkled around. There was no "heart", there were very few leaves. Then we come to my partners dish. Turkey dinner. It was served with beef gravy with red wine in it. Yuck. He said the dressing was different than it has been in the past and was not very good. I didn't taste it, I was too busy trying to find the artichokes in my meal and avoid the mound of mashed potatoes. I gave them two stars for old times sake and the fact that his hot chocolate was very good. read more

Stopped here on a whim on our way back from Wright City. Didn't expect much but was pleasantly surprised! Very relaxing, group friendly place without being rambunctious. The staff was super friendly and had great recommendations. Treat yourself to the brie and apples. It is scrumptious. They made a mean tomato basil soup too which was a treat. The price is perfect for the portions. I would love to stop by again! read more

Mimi's Cafe is way out in the Chesterfield Valley. It is a chain with only one location in St Louis. this was owned by the Bob Evans company but was sold at a loss in early 2013 to the LeDuff America which owns a variety of bakeries. It is nice to go to once in awhile if I am in the area. Service tends to vary from mediocre to bad. I was most recently here for breakfast and I got pancake, eggs and sausage and it was pretty tasty. Nothing special on the menu but it is good for groups and for those who might be picky eaters. I am only giving it 3 stars since it is a good 20-25 mile drive one way for me and the fact that service is never great. They don't seem to focus on that. read more

Food is good. Service is good. Cleanliness, not so good. Free wifi does not work on Apple products. The outside dining is always dirty. Food and butts on the floor every time I visit which is every Monday morning for breakfast after workout. I have been reporting this to corporate for the last six months. They don't care. read more

First time visit and this will not be my last. We arrived around 8:15pm not realizing that they closed at 9pm. Not once did we feel rushed by our waiter, or a burden to be there. The entire staff was very attentive and friendly. We ordered the brie appetizer and it did not disappoint. The grilled chicken and guacamole sandwich was very good. My friend enjoyed the chicken crepes and the portion was huge. The mini baguettes and carrot bread were amazing and even warm. As I write this review I am enjoying a muffin that I took to go. They earned the 5 stars last night. read more

Consistently inferior service. We have dined at Mimi's in Chesterfield a number of times over the past several years. Each time we have experienced poor service. It is ridiculous. But today capped it off. We had to wait ten minutes to be greeted by our waiter, and they were not crowded. The waiter did not credit our bill with our $5 off coupon and we had to wait ten minutes to get it all settled. Due to the horrible service, we did not tip the waiter. As my wife left Mimi's the waiter, "Craig L." stuck his head out the door and very loudly and sarcastically said, "Thank you." We reported this to the manager who listened attentively and was about to go in and get free meal vouchers for us. We simply said, "No, thanks, you've done that before and we've had it with this place." The problem has always been slow service, and inattentive service. The food really is not that great either. This is our last and final time we will ever go to Mimi's. It is ridiculously and consistently bad. I know how these review pages work. The restaurant will get people to post positive reviews to outweigh this negative review. But, trust me on this: Mimi's continues to have management and service problems. It is absurd. read more

We have always liked this restaurant. Every time we have gone there the food has been good. There was only one time we asked to sit outside only to be sat around a wasp nest. That made for a bad visit. We told the staff but they looked at us as though it was an issue we had to take care of. We aren't sure if they knew about the nest beforehand or not. I hope they got it cleared up and glad we didn't get stung! read more

This chain restaurant is huge but carries a small French country cafe vibe all the way through. I had the Quiche Lorraine, which came with my choice of GINORMOUS muffin and fruit. The fruit that came with the entree was a 1/2 slice of cantaloupe, 1/2 slice of honeydew, a slice of pineapple, and (I think) grapes. There was so much food! This is a decent selection for all sorts of comfort food. read more

The place has a French Bistro atmosphere. We had an office lunch here so I got to try a number of different dishes. I ordered the roasted chicken crepes. The chicken was tender. The sauce was tasty and the crepes were delicate. I tried both the pea soup and the corn chowder. Both tasted like Grandma made them. That is if Grandma was a good cook. The quiches had a great crust. I preferred the Quattre Fromage (four cheese) quiche over the broccoli cheddar quiche. The menu had a nice variety and I definitely will be back for more. Our server Chrysta was very accommodating and efficient without being invasive. read more

Love the salads, the breakfasts and the muffins!!! Oh and the triple berry mimosa.....to die for.

I have been to this particular Mimi's location several times, and each time, it's as if I am dining a new restaurant. My dining experiences have been so all over the board, however, that I wonder if they work with recipe *concepts* rather than the tried and true recipe cards. Do the Mimi's Cafe "chefs" come in with their own recipes everyday? I have experienced some good, borderline great, meals at Mimi's, but this was not to be one of those good experiences. After visiting my grandpa in the hospital, my mom and I decided to stop by Mimi's for some dinner. We each decided to order something we'd had previously enjoyed, and split the two. What did we decide on? The Crispy Chicken Salad and the Chicken Pot Pie. The salad came with a muffin, and that was the only bit of the meal that didn't taste as if it had been sitting out for days. Gross. The Chicken Pot Pie was overcooked, and mostly crust. The inside was not creamy, and seemed as if the 25 minute wait (so that they could freshly bake the pie) was a misstatement of the truth. I think that it had already been baked hours... or even days before, and heated up for us. Blech. The salad's chicken was again, seasoned with old-spice, and wasn't worth eating. We each tried to give it a chance by taking several bites, but in the end we gave it up, and went to Oberweis for some ice cream. The waitress we had was good, and there are no complaints about the restaurant itself, but it will be a long time, if ever I return for a meal. The muffins are good, but not that good. read more

Mimi's has good food. The mornings are a but slow, but still good. the sandwiches for lunch are all good. take a muffin home you will not be sorry. read more

Want an unique brunch - go to Mimi's! I cannot remember how we found out about Mimi's but its one of our favorite places on a Sunday morning. My husband loves being able to choose something from the breakfast menu at random times of the day while I love trying their other items. Their staff does whatever it takes to make sure your visit is special and complete. This particular visit was for my husband's birthday brunch and he got to choose his favorite breakfast omelet. I had the 5 cheese grilled cheese which is quite delicious and not a disappointment. Because of his birthday he was given a piece of cake with a candle which topped off our visit. If you visit and its your first time, they will send you home with a 4 pack of their melt in your mouth muffins. read more

I've eaten here about 60 times. When they first opened several years ago the quality was high and the service was excellent. If anything went wrong whatsoever the manager would apologize profusely and give you his card for a free meal. Now you're lucky to get a server who remembers to bring the ketchup you asked for 10 minutes ago and the quality and portions of everything has been diminished. I still enjoy their freshly baked blueberry muffins and roasted turkey dinner. But apparently 2005 is a bygone era. read more

Service was not very attentive. Food was ok, wouldn't necessarily go back even if it was my only option. Only thing that was pretty good was the mimosas which is hard to mess up. read more

I like to meet friends here for lunch. I always have the nicest waitstaff. The food is very good and a nice menu to select from. The baked muffins are delicious. Please, Mimi's, start carrying Gluten Free products, then you'd be perfect read more

Paid $1/shrimp and I've never in my life experienced a worse piece of food in my mouth. It was the most rubbery shrimp I've ever had. The flavor tasted like you just ate a burnt stick. Do not ever order anything with shrimp there. I only ordered the skewers and ate one and couldn't eat anymore. We are headed to chipotle now bc fast food is the only thing open now. And no the waitress didn't say anything when she cleared the full plate off the table. read more

This is the only time I have ever been here. Overall, I wasn't impressed. The food was okay, nothing really memorable. It didn't taste bad, it was just unimpressive. The decor is tacky. Like a Bistro and Friday's had a baby. The menu is all over the place. Like the restaurant doesn't know the style it wants to be. It is massively overpriced. 2 of us had dinner. No alcohol, no steaks. And the bill was almost $40. Our server however was the best server I have had in a long time. read more

Our networking group meets there weekly. The food is consistently good, with healthy options. The wait staff is attentive and timely! We appreciate all of their hard work from the kitchen to the hosts! read more

This was our first visit but I'm willing to give them a second chance. The hostess was very nice. Our server arrived a minute later and took our drink order. She brought them back and left. My husband's drink was wrong and we never saw her again. Our second server arrived a few minutes later with bread for the table and left. We didn't see her for several minutes and a third server walked up to see if our order had been taken. We told him we had a couple other servers stop by but he said he could go ahead and take the order while he was there. Moments later we heard the servers in the kitchen going back and forth over who got to take our table. It wasn't a big deal for us, but it just seemed really disorganized. Our food came out and our drinks were refilled. I found a dead fly floating on top of my drink. I had the slow-roasted turkey and my husband had the beef roast. Both were amazing. The sides were great as well. The restaurant is dimly lit and I saw a thick coating of dust on the light fixture over our table. The place could really use an update. It was extremely humid inside the restaurant. It will be awhile before I return, but based on the food that we had I would give them a second chance. read more

Simply delicious breakfast food. Whenever we visit, this is our breakfast pot. Croissants are crunchy on the outside, flaky in the middle. I wish they'd bring back the breakfast bowls, but the manager made one special for me. Great service!! See you in our next visit. read more

Awesome - they did everything on their menu to adjust to my dietary needs and gave everything vegetarian!! Highly recommend , all the people were awesome . The manager Jimmy and server Julie were incredible!! Thank you so much !! read more

Just had an amazing experience here! We just popped in for late night breakfast food after a wild few hours of thanksgiving sale shopping and we were seated and quickly realized it was a thanksgiving day menu (which we ate a few hours prior and were not looking for more yummy turkey). We got up and as we walked out the manager stopped us and offered us to order off the regular menu! How in the world he knew why we were leaving I have no idea! I for sure didn't want the kitchen to have to make off the daily menu food! Everyone was incredibly kind and hospitable! I was fine coming back another time for it's just dinner, but they went above and beyond to take care of us! Thank you Mimi's for making me thanksgiving day waffles!!! I will for sure be back!!! read more

Sunday breakfast. Small wait. Very friendly and attentive staff. Been to Mimis in Cali. Food was bluh. Ordered bacon, pancakes, omelette, sramb eggs, potatoes. Coffee was decent. Bacon was cheap-ish, overly salty, thin. Potatoes were not crispy at all. Plates were sloppy and unattractive when delivered. Daughter liked pancakes, but she likes anything with chocolate and butter. Bran and spice muffins were delish, as was the pumpkin bread in the waiting area. We'll go back for baked goods, but not for the other stuff. read more

Today was the first time I have ever been to Mimi's. The service was excellent from the person who sat us to the person who waited on us. The food was amazing and reasonably priced. I really enjoyed it and plan on going back. I had the salmon spinach salad, french onion soup and artichoke hearts. I loved everything I tried and actually ate way too much because I couldn't stop myself! read more

Went to Mimi's about a week ago. My wife had been there before and loved it and wanted me to try it as well. We came around lunchtime and it was pretty crowded but were seated right away. We also must have came right at shift change because our waitress was replaced by a very nice waiter shortly after we sat down and ordered our food. We waited for over 20 minutes for a Luke warm burger and fries and my wife's meal was completely wrong. She sent hers back and didn't want a replacement meal, who knows how long that would have taken. They were very apologetic and I can't imagine that happens often, needless to say they removed her meal from the bill of course and we left paying $20 tip included for so so burger. Not really thinking I will be going back any time soon. read more

We stopped by Mimi's for a quick bite on our way out of town. The restaurant was clean and inviting. Food was good and was served very fast. I believe they were a little overpriced for what you get. The server Cyndi was very nice and made us feel at home. They serve breakfast all day so that was a plus for me. read more

Absolutely loved this place!! Highly recommend! The server Sierra was very attentive and always had my water filled. The appetizer trio with zucchini, chicken tenders, and spinach artichoke dip was delicious! Also eggs were perfectly as well. Beautiful decor and overall serene atmosphere. read more

So, they did drop the ball in the kitchen on my French onion soup. Very thin layer of cheese and burnt on top. Then the manager, Justin, came along and not only got me a new, perfect cup of French onion soup complimentary but then more than made up for the original order in a number of ways, being gracious and insistent on compensating me and not have me just leave after I showed him the soup. We already know the food is good, so when someone drops the ball with service or food as humans do, just know that Mimi's management will make it up to you as long as you don't suffer in silence. This is what TRUE CUSTOMER SERVICE is all about! read more

Three of us decided on Mimi's based on the central location and viewing the online menu. It was a first time visit for all of us and we were pleasantly surprised by the huge menu, fun ambiance, attractive decor and attentive staff. We enjoyed our food, stayed around for quite a while to visit without getting any "time to go" looks from our server, and found a good meeting place for "girls' lunches". Oh, and the muffins!!!!!!! read more

Too many of my favorite items are not on their newest menu...no crepes, pot roast isn't the same recipe and that chocolate silk pie is not on the menu either read more

First time eating here and since I've drove right by it for years I'm kicking myself for not trying it out sooner. We arrived around 3:45 and was seated very fast. Really nice menu and lots of options. Amazing looking bakery items. Serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner along with appetizers and desserts. Great atmosphere and our server was Sierra and she was fantastic. She took our orders and while she was inputting them into their ordering system I actually went up to her and changed my order (I've never done that before in my life) she was very accommodating with my request. The whole time while we were eating we kept saying that we were going to get dessert. We had our eye on the berry crumble with ice cream but the food portions were a bit bigger then what we anticipated so when we were asked about dessert we declined. The next time I'm getting dessert first. LOL. If you happen to try this place out ask for Sierra for your server. read more

Quick service for a Sunday brunch! The food came out slightly cold and I feel as if our server could have been more attentive. We had the chipotle breakfast burrito and mixed berry stuffed French toast, both were delicious! Love this place any time of day. Highly recommend! read more

We have been here many times and it has never been like this!! Our chicken baguette had tomato so thin we could through it and the baguette was so tough almost pulled my teeth out. Worse was the chicken had the "second day" taste to it. and our "bread" basket was cold bread with frozen butter!! Today is definitely not their best effort. We come here every time I come to town but will think twice before we come again. We ordered the moultan chocolate with an extra scoop of ice cream it cost $7.49 and the cake was small and the two scoops of ice cream were even smaller. We were very sad. read more

Good food doesn't make up for the bad service. This place was a fav of my grandparents and now I know why they are empty on a weekend night. The service is just awful. read more

Menu was great, usually not a breakfast fan but this place was good. Server checked in enough but not too often. Had the chicken and waffles and it was delicious. read more

Service was good. Food was okay, not great. Corn chowder was very good though. My wife's burger had a very greasy bun. My sandwich Cordon Blu was served without any ham in it. Also, related to portion size and quality, the price was too much. Visited again on 10/18/17 and the food was bad. Pot roast way dry, green beans were waxy and the mashed potatoes were runny. The salad was okay and the bread was good. In defense of the restaurant, the manager removed the charged for my pot roast meal. This was a nice gesture that I appreciated, but I will never return to this restaurant. read more

Food was just alright. Arrived and waited to be seated since no one was up front waiting on guests. Sat 15 minutes before anyone came over. Waiter never came over one time after taking our order except to give us our food. Never gave me the water I asked for with my orange juice so I sat waiting until the food arrived. Took forever for the food, forever to be served, and felt ignored. read more

I haven't found a lot of great breakfast options in St Louis, especially those I can get my midwestern family to try but Mimi's is the one place we can all agree on and all like. Great food and service. We had a veggie omelet and spinach quiche. The quiche And make sure you try the blueberry muffin, wow, they come out want like straight from the oven, gooey and Delish. read more
