    We happened to come to this place because our original plan didn't work out and it was amazing!! We are so much food and everything was phenomenal. Our server recommended we get the heritage sampler and it was the best decision we made. We all ate so much food and it was absolutely worth it. Meat eaters and vegans enjoyed everything alike. If you're in town and want to eat a bunch of delicious food, stop by!

    First visit to the newly opened Mimi's. They did an extensive renovation, and everything is lovely inside. We sat at the bar, which had comfortable bar stools and friendly bartenders (Gerald and Preston). We were served very quickly. Good draft beer list and nice bourbon selection. Had delicious cocktails, then ordered food. The Ayib Delight Trio included three pyramids of different flavored cottage cheese (with a choice of bread...we selected pita). I thought it was very good, but I am huge fan of cottage cheese in general. The Empress Garden Feast was a massive amount of food with lots of flavorful dishes. Cannot remember what all the dishes were. Since I am a vegetarian, there was no meat in this massive feast of ours. The menu was extensive and had lots of meat options for carnivores. Overall, very pleased with the dining experience. Suggestions to make it even better: add hooks under the bar for hanging up purses and bags, add a bar foot rail, have menus that are not QR codes, include bourbon prices on menu, and turn down the air conditioning on hot days (it was freezing inside while it was over 90 degrees outside). Did not utilize the restrooms, so will save that review for another day. Recommend giving it a try.

    We ordered one meat & veggie combo and shikla lamb. The gentleman rang us up for two orders of meat…read more& veggie combo. I asked if they have berbere. The gentle confirmed they do. I requested for that -- I did not receive berbere. The meat & veggie plate was VERY LACKLUSTER. Flavors were a bit bland. The dish came with almost nothing -- not even a salad. The lamb was DRY -- it hurt to chew the meat. All so disappointing. With so many other better options in Louisville for Ethiopian food, it'll be an awhile before I give this another try. P.S. I did order for pick up and based on others photos I wonder if the food is better when you order for dine in. Both sure why that would be though.

    This is the definition of a small Mom and Pop business. Super friendly and very welcoming. The…read moreowner seemed genuinely pleased that I came in. The grocery section is pretty small. It does have a variety of flours you aren't going to find at Kroger. I came here to eat. I had the shikla lamb. It comes in a hot bowl with onions and jalapeños. It also comes with injera topped with boiled potatoes and some sort of red condiment that I'm not familiar with. Great flavors. They probably have utensils but I was only given a spoon to dish out the lamb. I have no problem eating with my hands. I can adapt. If you want to support a small local business make the trip to this place. So worth the drive.
