Went to lunch at Mimi's yesterday and the service was excellent. My friends lunches all looked pretty good but mine was a disappointment. I ordered the Slow Roasted Turkey plate and there was a plate and it did have turkey but it was just sliced deli turkey with gravy on top, just like you would find in a sandwich. FYI Do Not order the turkey plate unless you want to be disappointed. read more

Was meeting a buddy of mine here for lunch. I got there early because he only has a 45 min lunch so i thought id check in to get a table. I got there at 2:30 and waited by the front podium to be seated. 4 employees were gathered by the bar chatting it up. No one acknowledged me. I figure they were not servers. But they did not bother to notify anyone that i was waiting. About 9 mins passed of standing there before i my friend showed up. Still no one helped me. We decided to go to Carino's instead.cannon comment on food because we did not eat there, but i could only imagine how long it would have taken us to get the food. Im sure staff will comment on this apologizing but what they should do is talk to there staff about service. no wonder this place is always empty read more

Firs thing anyone should know, is I have worked in the hospitality industry for many years. I came to eat with my mom and Grandma. I was excited to go to Mimi's because I hadn't been in so long (plus I used to work at the one in Dublin a long time ago), but upon entering the establishment, the manager was not very welcoming. She seemed like she had an attitude. I asked for a booth (only because my grandma prefers a booth) and I swear, it's like she was irritated that I asked, so she put us right next to the bathroom, which I noticed right away but didn't say anything. I just went with it because it's already hard enough getting my grandma from a to b. When I go to sit at the booth, I realize the booth doesn't fit me well. I just dealt with it even though it was a tight fit. I didn't notice right away but later I saw There were greasy prints on the back of the booth and the condiments were filthy looking. Doesn't look like they've been cleaned in several days. (Pics below) The service wasn't great and the food was horrible. I ordered the French Quarter Burger and when it came out, it was so sloppily put together and when I picked up the burger, the bread wasn't grilled on the underside. The server was not very attentive and it was hard to get her attention, since we were in the back, in the corner and she barely ever looked our way. I had to speak up loud which I don't want to have to do, with other patrons there. It Took very long to get refills or even mustard with my burger, because of this. I told the server about the burger it and she said she would get her manager. The manager came and asked what was wrong and I told her, and she said, "What would you like me to do?" In my mind, I just wanted her to say she would take it off, without asking me what I wanted her to do. Obviously, there is a problem with the food quality. She didn't seem to be genuinely concerned which is a concern all on its own but judging by how the rest of the place looks...you be the judge. Just...overall, a horrible experience at this location. Mimi's used to be so good. Not so much anymore. Also they don't offer bread or carrot raisin bread, included with the meal, like they used to. That was something I was really looking forward to. Now they have carrot raisin "Madeline's" you can add to your bill. Bring back the BBQ Meatloaf and garlic red skin mashed pots please ! read more

It's been a few years but I was craving the carrot bread they had. Was told that they didn't have anymore. My group ordered two French dips. They were sooo gross. Who puts bell peppers in French drip? The bread was awful, the dip was light with no flavor. Even my side salad was gross. My daughter did say she liked her chicken strips though. My stomach hasn't been right since that meal. The whole restaurant looks like it gave up. Strange Halloween decorations up. I would pass on this restaurant read more

Yay, breakfast all day! What more can i asked for. I craved a melt in your mouth pancake, it may not be it...but its closest to what i want. We ordered chicken wings, unfortunately its literally cold when it was served to us. The place is clean & has nice aesthetics read more

Food was soggy. Food was gross. They tried to do a replacement, but it was no better. The eggs taste like they are made from powder. Definitely not a place that I will be coming again. As far as the atmosphere it is not bad food is overly priced which makes the overall experience just not great. There is a lot of assumption which added to our price. read more

Great service; Thanksgiving Day dinner for 2-3 course meal was $30 a piece. Excellent food. Just a little salty, but all of the trimmings with turkey and gravy were delicious. Has a diner of Pirates of the Caribbean vibe. Will be going there again! read more

Mimi's Cafe - 2nd floor ambience by front entrance. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Fairfield, California

I haven't been to a Mimi's Cafe is several years!!! We decided to try this place last night and I was pretty disappointed in this place. The menu has such a big variety and overwhelming options so we asked the waitress what she recommended she said she didn't really know. She only orders salads and soups, I asked "what kind of salad?" Then proceeds to say she makes her own salad which I thought okay, but not the most helpful. So I ordered the egg white and veggies with a blueberry muffin, my daughter ordered the chicken fingers and my bf ordered the French toast with eggs. She was nice enough to give us extra bacon because they were such skinny pieces.. but the food was just okay. Mine came with feta and there was a huge glob of it on my eggs. The only reason why I gave 2 stars was because of the blueberry muffin that was delicious! I don't think we'll be coming back here. read more

My fiance and I was going to th I s restaurant at least once a wee. We'll we went for dinner on tuesday the 21st. I ordered turkey dinner and my partner order meatloaf. When we got out food started eating my fiance meatloaf was total black burnt. We tge waitress came to t he table he explain that yhe meatloaf must have been fried cause it was burnt. Her reply was well you ate your food so you have to pay for it. Mine you he ate his mash potatoes and green beans and I shared my turkey with him. She said I can give you slittle discount but you need to pay something. We'll as a v blue customer that will be my last visit to your restaurant to be treated that way was unacceptable. I called the restaurant today talk to Sean yge GM and I guess he didnt care he said he will talk to server and thst was the end of our conversation. VERY POOR SERVICE AND THE GM DIDNT REALLY CARE...NEVER AGAIN WILL I GO BACK THERE read more

I really want to like this place, but here lately things have been bad. I paid $20 for a shrimp salad that had no shrimp and only a couple berries. Do not carry out from here without checking your order. I'm from Ohio and the Mimi's here is very lacking. I would recommend going elsewhere. read more

Nom de Dieu, Oh how I miss you!! Mimi's pulled out my way (Orlando) during the great recession and I've missed them ever since even though they weren't so good in the very end. How do you even characterize them? French/American comfort food known for their breakfast food stuffs and dinner classics like meat loaf and pot pie. Muffins are legendary here as well; overall the whole experience is a touch immersive with the look and feel of the theme. Just love the building. So customer service and hospitality were tops. As well were my expectations satisfied which were pretty high. Was really looking forward to coming here and I'm so glad I did. Course, should say, my experience was during off peak hours, on an off peak day; when generally everything's better. read more

I want to give a big thank you to our local Minis Cafe. We came in seven minutes before their kitchen closed. I fully expected to be turned away at the door. We honestly didn't realize how late it was after our movie. But that is not the reception we got. We were greeted with a smile and just needed to decide on our dinner quickly. No problem!! The service was outstanding and I wish I had our servers name but she was so friendly,welcoming, and very attentive. I had the jambalaya and my man had the French pot roast. You can never go wrong with those dishes. Hot bread and we were more than happy. We come here often and the level of service we got tonight is a big reason why we keep coming!! read more

Mimi's Fairfield is a FAT NO! Was in the area stopped here for breakfast and nope nothing compares to my Mimi's in Roseville,CA. We were seated upon arrival and the host took our drink orders super friendly. Our waitress Letty came 10 min later instantly are you ready to order. We were I ordered the Quiche Florentine $14.99 it was brought out super quick and looked like a frozen pot pie that they threw in the microwave! My potatoes were grease squares! Left them all there. Horrible no water brought to the table nor did she ever ask if we wanted any. The whole feel of the restaurant is just like a building no friendly ambiance I don't know I won't be back highly disappointed. Plus their muffins look day old. Eh read more

My boyfriend and i decided to make the 38 min drive to try this Mimi's since I've really been wanting to go for a while. They are closing the chains so this is the closest to us and was worth a drive. We were immediately seated and and given an appropriate amount of time to look at drink. Our server and hostess were very kind. This place is always aesthetically pleasing very warm and french theme. As for the food and drink it was pretty good! I got the mocha latte, i like my coffee on the stronger side so this was perfect for me but they also provide sugar packets at the table. My boyfriend says his strawberry lemonade tasted watered down but he also ordered that at 8:30am so i don't know if it would be better in the afternoon. He got orange juice afterwards and it was good in a big cup not one of those restaurants that give you a little shot glass of juice! I got the pain perdu with mixed berries it was really good. Definitely loved the inner cream filling and it came with eggs and a protein choice i chose the turkey sausage. Very filling. My boyfriend got the fried chicken and waffle. Didn't look like regular fried chicken but was good nonetheless. The waffle was AMAZING though! Very fluffy and light and just a little sweet! We also got a pack of muffins and croissants to go! Definitely will be back! read more

Came in for breakfast a couple of weeks ago. The breakfast is always just so so but the muffins and pastry's are SO good. We got some to go. The blueberry muffin is my favorite! Service is always great even though u can tell the servers are busy. You always get sat right away. Not many breakfast items but that's okay. The place just looks like it needs a solid remodel but it's always a good local spot to have breakfast and is never too crowded read more

Went here yesterday for lunch around 12noon. I patiently waited in the front for atleast 10 to 15 minutes as the large sign said to wait for a Host. While waiting a group of 3 nurses walked in and right on cue the Host was there to take their names. I quickly asked the Host to add my name to the list as well and told her that I was there waited before the group but to no avail. The whole time I was there I was respectful but the Host kept getting loud and talking down to me with a rude tone. She insisted she saw them first but I asked the nurses in front her say " ma'am was i here waiting when you got here?" To which the group said "Yeah, you can go ahead if you want". To which I replied "No thank you just making a point and my people are used to it." Btw did I mention all the other parties involved were caucasian. When the host finally comes to show me to my sit. She takes me all the way to back of the restaurant next to the restrooms although there were many empty open spots arounds. The one Star was Leticia the server, so nice, treated me as a person so I gave her a 100% percent tip. So sad that in 2021 I Black person has to be treated this way. I Won't be returning to Mimis. read more

We recently visited to celebrate a birthday and let me tell you the staff was amazing. The food was amazing. The baked goodies were amazing. We all ordered breakfast some ordered lunch because it was brunch for the birthday. They have a back room you can utilize to celebrate any parties and events, but make sure you check in with the front to talk to the manager to get you booked or a staff member The staff was amazing and got everything we needed. It was one person taking on 18+ people and she did her job really well. We appreciated her hard work and the manager support and getting us scheduled and getting a staff member that can handle our large family that came to celebrate a 17th birthday. We really enjoy the food here always comes out tasty and the food comes out pretty fast so you don't have to wait too long. This place has a lot of there are locations of the restaurant that has an ambience that is very quiet mid range and if you have the back room like it can get a little loud but not too loud. We really love going to this place for events with our family. The manager and staff are always pleasant. I know everyone's experiences different, but don't take my word for it go check them out and give them an opportunity to give you the experience we had. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place...which it was closer..Menu serves French and American..Service is great

Better than average coffee shop and great service. But if you have been to one Mimi's you been to all.

Food was good, service was good, choices were good only reason it's not full stars was coz the drinks were $3.50 I totally understand a dollar less than that but that's too much get ur refills if anything then. I wasn't able to coz I don't drink like that but to hav ur money's worth for that much get a refill I was also here before for a paint night the food at that time was good too idk why my review went to the older pics I guess u can only review once read more

Went in Thursday evening. If you like food that has any flavor whatsoever don't go here. It's incredibly overpriced for what it is. Two people, two entrees, a dessert and two drinks for $63. We got the French Dip, Fish and Chips, Baked Brie with walnuts and cranberry sauce, and Creme Brûlée. Everything was flat and saltless tasting. (Before you ask, I just ate something else and drank a coke and it tasted normal so the food is just really bland hunty :) We got to go and ate in the car as soon as the food was give to us and it was cold. If by baked Brie they meant "thrown in a cup and microwaved for 45 seconds" then I guess? The host who was assisting us was nice, and since it's a chain I know it's a lot of pre-packaged stuff and frozen stuff so I don't blame them, they're working with what they've got. So yeah, don't go. I included a couple photos of the stuff. read more

Food wasn't tasty at all burger over cooked fries greasy. Place is old and needs to be deep cleaned and updated.

I was excited to be out here enjoying nice weather and food with my grandma. Our server Latisia was very kind and attentive. We started off with drinks. I ordered the S'mores Latte with Baileys. It's on the seasonal menu; it had a little strength to it along with sweetness of the marshmallow chocolate topping. I usually do not like hot coffee beverages but this one wasn't all that bad, I think I'd order it again if I can back here. Next up I ordered the Campfire French Toast Breakfast. It was honestly very underwhelming and a big reason of disappointment reflecting in the rating. The toast was very soft, I would've liked it to be crispier or at least more firm. What looks to be marshmallow topping in the pictures is actually some sort of sauce that tastes like it is citrus (namely orange) flavored. I didn't enjoy the sauce and it made my bread soggy faster. I wouldn't order this again. The eggs were also super bland and tasted equivalent of hotel eggs. The sausage however was really tasty. I don't think I have to come here again. read more

One of the worst customer experiences I've ever had. Came here for an afternoon brunch for my birthday. The waitress that seated us was not friendly never said hello didn't even acknowledge that it was my birthday barely even made eye contact with us. Threw the menus down on the table rolled her eyes and walked away. Finally when it came time to pay the bill She took my ID and my husband's credit card. Returned my ID but never returned my husband's credit card. So now we have to make a trip back to the restaurant to get my husbands credit card. It overall experience was not pleasant at all. Sad because we've always enjoyed Mimi's in other cities and have never had this type of experience we will not be returning. read more

I decided to try out Mimi's Cafe for breakfast. The hostess was not really friendly, she just grabbed a menu and seated me at a table. I scanned the menu to see what I wanted and decided on a pancake breakfast. The waitress was nice. I placed a order for a hot tea and the water was barely hot so my 1st brew of tea was weak. I asked for a a fresh pot of hot water and also order my pancakes, eggs and bacon. The pancakes were good not heavy at all however the eggs and bacon had.no flavor. The bacon was so bland I asked was it cooked in a microwave as the flavor was gone. The eggs did not taste all that great either. The portion size was great and the price was not bad either. The ambiance of the restaurant was just chill and most importantly It was clean. Will I be back? Maybe but I am not in a rush as I have had better tasting breakfast at other places. read more

The takeout order I placed yesterday, 11/28, for an omelet and coffee was terrible. The omelet had no cheese and the vegetables that should have been cooked inside the omelet were tossed outside raw, like a salad with croutons. The coffee was awful and the blueberry muffin that comes with it was stale. I wound up tossing it all away. I will never go to Mimi's again. It is not like it used to be years ago. I would give it no stars but I am required to give it at least one for this review. Buyer beware! read more

Really rude staff and manager. I have never had a good experience with their staff here and I regret trying to come back here. My Doordash order did not go through on their end (they said it was cancelled or denied), even though it went through on Doordash's end. So clearly it was their fault. But the manager just blamed Doordash and wouldn't help to fix the issue and just gave me attitude about it. I cancelled the order on Doordash's end and got a refund. I won't be back. They can keep their food and their bad attitude. read more

Love this place. Food is always good. Recommend to locals and visitors to our community. Great home style cooking.

Hmmm.. food and service quality has gone down with last two visits! To be fair the servers are nice and as prompt as can be but seems like a larger table to server ratio. Its more management then server issue here. Food is the most disappointing(3/5) My fave salmon benedict(3/5), the egg muffin wasnt crisp. My parents fave the corn beef hash(2/5) had more potato then meat, seemed like from a can again. My husband's order salmon benedict (3/5)potato used to be crispy, but while a nice brown was soggy. Pain perdu was good still good (4/5) Coffee was still good 4/5 read more

This is one of our usual after Sunday Church restaurants that my family and I go to. We all have our favorites which consist of there yummy warm blueberry, bran, pumpkin, or chocolate chip muffins. I like their smoked salmon cream cheese and bagel, quiche, corned beef hash, pan perdue stuffed French toast (like dessert and breakfast all in one) or their veggie egg white omelet (if I am feeling like I want something healthy, which still comes with one of their yummy muffins. These are just some of my breakfast favorites. There lunch and dinner menu is pretty decent too. They serve things from sandwiches, pot roast to jambalaya and pastas.

Due to COVID-19 we decided to order Thanksgiving feast from Mimi's. The feast came with turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, broccoli, homemade bread.
