Went here for a late dinner date and I cannot recommend it enough! The service was quick and easy. Our waiter was so helpful in going over the menu for us. We ordered two different pastas to try and fritters to start. The vibes were IT for both a date night or to have a chill night with a big group. I think the menu had a good variety in each course without it being overwhelming, I will be going back to try their large selection of wine and more of their dishes! read more

The restaurant has old school New Jersey Italian vibes - low ceiling, a little moody ambiance - but none of the attitude. The staff is super friendly, and we were welcomed as we were (we had hoped to eat at a sister establishment but they sold out of what we wanted). Mimo's offers a great selection of Italian inspired apps, three well appointed pizzas, a few varied and surprising options for pasta dishes, and some mains. Items we tried: Pane - delicious Roasted Carrot Pizza - AMAZING, A little spicy, but definitely something we would order again. Pastas we ordered initially came out cold - our incredible waiter immediately corrected the issue. But from a flavor profile - Pansotti - sooooo delicious. You'd never guess that it was a vegetarian option - the mushrooms were so meaty. The delicate pouches with the spinach and ricotta were heavenly. Pappardelle - The lamb braised sauce had a depth of flavor that could rival any restaurant in Italy. My only tiny hope was that the pasta would have been served aldente, it was a little overcooked. But to each his own. Overall - really great. Would recommend. This would be great for a weeknight dinner or an off the beaten path date night. read more

Here's your proofread review: Arrived around 7:30 PM on a Saturday night. It wasn't too packed. We chose patio seating, which was nice because the interior is quite dim -- although I now have 7 mosquito bites. I overall thought the food was good but nothing was stellar. We ordered the house salad and Capicola, which was a mistake because flavor-wise they were nearly identical, the main difference being that the Capicola had meat. Both salads were well done and had a nice balance of flavor and freshness. I really enjoyed the fish -- lightly salted, nutty, and crispy -- but I added the lemon it came with, which made it bitter. The rigatoni was creamy and cheesy. It was a solid pasta, nothing out of the ordinary but still enjoyable. Mimo is the type of place I would visit if I lived nearby. read more

This is truly a hidden gem. First time visiting and cannot express how much I love it. Everything from the food, service, aesthetic, was 10/10. It is such a cozy and unique place. Our waiter gave the very best recommendations and descriptions of everything. The wine list is great - orange/natural wine options! And Wednesdays all bottles are half off. All the food was great, we tried the ricotta spread, prawns, gnocchi, lamb chops, gallina. All amazing! And great for sharing. The lamb chops were especially good. They have a happy hour as well and huge parking lot which is great. Will be coming back to try more! read more

They are as slow as they warn on the menu, but still good and an enjoyable wait honestly! Waiter was sweet and was trying but did forget to write down and order one of our pastas. Perhaps overpriced pastas for the very tiny portions. Overall delicious and would return, it's a very authentic Italian experience if that's what you're looking for! read more

Located in the East End (north of UH and I45), Mimo is pretty tucked away and easy to miss. The interior is pretty low key with dim lighting. For starters we ordered the croquette and the ricotta montato. I'm a big fan of the ricotta montato, the sweetness of the pear, the creamy ricotta paired with the saltiness of ciabatta toast was an excellent combo. For mains, we tried a few pastas and a margarita pizza. My top two were the pappardelle and the paccheri. The pastas were cooked perfectly and the sauces were rich and flavorful. The gnocchi in red sauce was also pretty good, but a little bland in comparison. The Neapolitan style margaritas pizza was also solid, but slightly soggy in the center. Overall a very solid Italian restaurant, I'm glad we found it! read more

Went here last night for an early Valentine's Day dinner. We use the InKind app and had picked up some gift cards from Costco, noticed this spot was on InKind, and decided to check it out -- really glad we did! First off, it's located in a cool little pocket on the East End inside Tlaquepaque Market. It looks a bit dark from the outside at night, but once you step in, it's warm and cozy. There's also plenty of parking, which is always a plus. My wife and I shared the pane along with their Valentine's Day prix fixe menu, which included an appetizer, salad, pasta, and dessert. The pane came out warm - perfectly crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside.The starter was a scallop with pomegranate vinaigrette that was light, bright, and a great way to open up the palate. The salad (I think it was purple kale, but I forgot to ask) was fresh and well-balanced. For the main, we had a pasta dish topped with a ribeye meatball that featured a bold sauce with tons of flavor, and the meatball had a subtle kick to it. Dessert was a cherry gelato that was simple, refreshing, and the perfect way to end the meal. They also have a solid wine selection, which paired nicely with dinner. Service was great - our server Philip was clearly busy but still made sure to check on us regularly. Overall, this is a great East End date-night spot. They also have a spacious outdoor patio that feels like it was pulled straight out of an Italian backyard. We'll definitely be back. read more

This establishment is hidden and is not a spot you'll just stumble on if you're not familiar with the area and what is around. There is plenty of parking right outside in a private lot, no need to worry with valet or street parking here. The outside is not much to write home about, but when you step inside, it's quaint and cozy. It has a low key, simple and minimal rustic Italian feel. Service - 4.5* We didn't have hardly any time with the menu before we were being asked if we knew what we wanted. That said, the waitress was very helpful and knew alot about most of the dishes. She recommended several from each section of the menu dependent on what you were looking for and size of plate. It did take a bit longer than normal to get our dishes but they had two giant parties in the main dining area so that may have contributed to it. Food and Drink - 4* The wine menu is extensive and I'm certain anyone would find something. There's some basic beers for those who maybe aren't wanting wine. On the appetizer side, the Finocchiona pizza was excellent - crispy, fennel forward, ricotta comes through. On the entree side pappardelle with lamb was good. The lamb is certainly the highlight of the dish. The gnocchi was great and pasta wise, was the preferred of the two. Cost - 4.5* Subjectively, the pricing is reasonable for the dish sizes. I'll leave it at that. Overall - 4.25* There were plenty of dishes I saw that I'd come back to try and next time I'll bring some friends along so we can try more. Now, my controversial take is I would say this is not the best Italian I've had in town, but the location, the pricing, the vibe are all pluses and reason enough to pay another visit! read more

Really hidden and assuming Italian spot in the Eastend area (north of UH). It's on Telephone and Lockwood but hidden in the back. The interior is inside an older one story building and has a bar and dimly lit dining. The menu comprises of apps, pastas, and some main dishes in addition to pizza. Their starters are tasty and come in fairly small portions. I got their gnocchi as a main and it was very tender with a nicely prepared red sauce; the portion was a bit small for my liking but the taste was there. Their pizza was also done nicely; it's a traditional Neapolitan style with red sauce, mozzarella, basil and a thin crust. Enjoyed the food overall and definitely a good culinary pick for this area of town. read more

Food-100/5!! The food was so freaking delicious! Honestly I would eat here everyday day if I could! I love the various flavors that one dish can have! We got 2 app, each a pasta dish,& 2 desserts. The pictures don't justify how savory everything was! Service-5/5- our waiter was super attentive and helped us pick the right wine for girls night! He let us sample a small amount of 2 different wines to make sure we would like what we were getting. We bought the bottle because it was that good! Ambiance-5/5- this place is a hidden gem to be honest. The inside has the old Italian look very beautiful to look around. The music is just the right volume so you can have a nice dinner. read more

Italian cuisine for dinner in Houston, Texas... This was my niece's last dinner as a college student. Tomorrow, she'll be a college graduate! Time sure flies by! We called ahead for reservations, but we got sent to voicemail. However, when we arrived, we were seated right away, even though almost every table was taken. Mimo is a cozy, dimly lit, noisy, popular place! The free parking lot in front, convenient restroom inside, and professional staff all around are much appreciated! We knew it was a classy place when we were served a complimentary round of Amuse Bouche. It was a toasted round with ricotta and lemon glaze, topped with a candied walnut. Refreshing! Our party of five shared: *Pane - freshly baked sourdough bread - soft interior with crisp outer layer *Pappardelle: heirloom tomatoes and mushrooms with braised, tender lamb *Spaghetti alle Vongole: bottleneck clams in wine broth was a bit spicy for me. *Pansotti: spinach and ricotta dumplings in wild mushroom ragu *Roasted carrot pizza: peppery with great crust This was a fancy meal! We really enjoyed this treat! read more

It's hard to describe how good Mimo is - each time I go I'm always impressed with the fantastic food, cozy ambiance, and knockout service, all packaged within a gem of a restaurant tucked into an unassuming collective along Telephone Road. The starters are thoughtful and well-balanced - on my latest visit, I enjoyed the prosciutto and pear plate, a wintery homage to the classic pairing of prosciutto and melon, as well as a large dish of buttery, herbaceous steamed mussels (which to be fair, are hard to mess up). The housemade pastas are wonderfully tender and hold up well to all the bold sauces and ragùs (the lamb pappardelle always hits). Truthfully, I never make it to the mains section of the menu before the antipasti, pasta, and wine fill me up, but I promise y'all and myself I will make it there one day :) Capping off the whole experience is warm, efficient service - the team there is accessible and knowledgeable, eager to share their favorites from the menu or to top off a recently emptied glass of wine. I love that the menu sets that the expectation that the meal will be served "at a relaxed pace" - and that's exactly the mindset with which you should visit. Hope to see you there soon! read more

Mimo - Tortelloni and Fettucine - Italian Near Me - Houston, Texas

Finding delicious Italian food in Houston can be a challenge, but look no further because Mimo has got you covered! Was excited to see this place on the EatDrinkHTX list this year. The portions are slightly smaller for this menu but for $25 the 3 courses was a superb deal. I will certainly come back to try other things. There is plenty of parking. The restaurant says "ristorante" on top and there is a small blue neon sign that says "Mimo." The interior is very cozy, it's quiet and comfortable with nice lighting. Could definitely be a place for a fancy celebratory meal but can also be casual. The service is good! The waiter was very attentive and easy going. The pace is very laid back so you aren't rushed at all. They start off by giving you a little complimentary bite. Ours was little crostini with a whipped ricotta and I think a drizzle of honey and a nut. Lovely bite! We added an order of the fritters, which are fried to perfection, so crispy and savory. The apps we tried for eatdrinkHTX were the whipped ricotta and crochette. The ricotta was delish, I loved the figs and the bits of prosciutto, could eat a whole bowl of this. The crochettes were also yummy and I wish I had 10 of them! Also fried really nicely and not too salty. For second courses, we tried the fettuccine and the Cacio e Pepe. The fettuccine had a red sauce with meat, it was a little spicy! The cacio e pepe also had a little kick. I appreciated that it was just the right amount of salt. All the pasta was cooked al dente with a pleasant chew. I think you cannot go wrong with any of the pasta dishes here. For third courses, tried the zeppole and biscotti. Zeppole were fluffy and not overly sweet. The biscotti was fun, it came with a Marsala wine to pour on top which paired nicely! I have to come back for the pizza- everybody around us was eating pizza so it must be good! Will also have to try other fun things on the menu. Will be back soon!! read more

My family and I celebrated my belated birthday dinner here, and had a very nice time. From the outside, it was dark and didn't look like much but once inside it was very cozy. We sat at their family table next to the kitchen and it was a nice semi-private space. My family and I split a variety of dishes including the skillet bread, brussel sprouts, rapini fritti, croquettes, gnocchi, fettuccine, pappardelle, tortelloni, and eggplant milanese. All the dishes came out hot and fresh but the best were the rapini fritti because it was crispy and rich, and the tortelloni with the hint of chili oil and perfectly cooked pasta. For dessert we got their chocolate salato and truffles. Both were so indulgent and I really enjoyed the sweet/salty/crunchy textures of the chocolate salato. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. We'd love to return! read more

Love this place and can't wait to come back! The vibes are cozy and romantic. It's a lil "hole in the wall" on the east side. Easy to miss if you're not paying attention, but don't miss this place! The food was incredible. Italian food can get very boring but every dish had SO much variety in flavor without being "too creative". The desserts, Cara Cara panna cotta and tiramisu were to die for...again, classic Italian desserts but with fresh and amazing flavor. Our waiter for the vibes as well, he was interactive, suggested a few items, and really made us feel at home. I'm seriously so excited to come back. read more

We had a fantastic anniversary evening at Mimo. Parking is so easy which is a huge plus. We arrived on a Saturday at 6:30 without reservations so we were seated at the bar. Service was friendly and quick. Glasses by the wine were good not fantastic. Probably my only complaint. The pesto pasta was great and the roasted carrot pizza was absolutely amazing. Super soft crust with a good amount of spice. I've never had anything like it. I'm returning often just for that damn pizza! read more

One of my top favorite restaurants. I love absolutely everything about it. Food and presentation outstanding. Fair prices, great wine options! Knowledgeable attentive servers. For me it's an authentic feel. No over-the- top decor, a little like stumbling in off the streets of Italy. Just right. An odd quirky location which only addd to the charm. Yes! read more

The servers were quick to greet us, friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about wine and menu. The food was so delightful, and everything had a fresh flavor and nice color and presentation. There was so much seating and a really lovely patio. I'd recommend Mimo's over Riva's because of better quality in ingredients, faster service, friendlier staff, and a better parking situation. The vibe includes houseplants, romantic decor, vintage posters, simple and elegant tableware. read more

As a fellow server, I was deeply disappointed with the service we received from our server, Jonatan C., on Tuesday night. The restaurant was not super busy, and the food was decent, so we were willing to come back. However, based on this experience, I will definitely not return. Jonatan was completely absent throughout our entire dinner. The water refills were abysmal, and it took way too long to get a refill. One of the bustiers even had to come to refill for us. When we received the food, he didn't check on us until dessert. Even when he dropped off the dessert menu, which I wanted to try the tiramisu, he didn't come back for another 10-15 minutes. By then, my group and I were just ready to leave and get dessert somewhere else. We didn't want the possibility of waiting another long time to receive the bill and close out the tab. We knew it was going to be automatic gratuity, but we weren't expecting less than bare minimum service. If it was an automatic 20%, we should have gotten at least decent service. read more

As of the time of this review, I am fully satisfied and content. The food was delicious and I had a great time. We got the croquette, cacio e pepe, beef cheek and panna cotta. Everything was very very good. The cacio e pepe was al dente for me, beef cheek tender and so so flavorful. Croquettes were fried perfectly and panna cotta was smooth, sweet, and citrusy. A perfect night in my books! The manager? was very passionate about the food. He pointed out what he liked about our dishes and which dishes to try for next time. Service was timely. The ambiance was lovely, perfect for an intimate date or even a family party. Plenty of parking even if it might be in a sketchy area. Planning on coming back! read more

This restaurant was so close to being on my top 5 hit list in Houston - it does so many things well, but the pasta for me was a real let down, which kept it from truly being elite. First, absolutely love the vibe here. Industrial, yet cozy. The place is abuzz without being too noisy. Ample parking so that is not an issue. All purpose place that could fit the bill for a night out with friends, date night, or a nice family dinner. Service was absolutely A+. Our waitress was so sweet and had such a great, chill energy. Always attentive and gave great recommendations. The meal started out amazing - dish after dish, I was so impressed. We had: The bread with the butter Whipped ricotta Corn fritters Romaine salad Broccolini At this point I am floored, and was just about to text my friends in NYC that I had found some legit Italian in Houston...and then the pasta came. It was a let down. We had a rigatoni dish and a orecchiette - it was way overcooked, way beyond al dente. Mushy in the mouth. The flavors were good, but the pasta texture made me SO sad - because this restaurant was so close to giving me one of the most memorable meals of the year. After the meal, we were commenting how Paulie's pasta always is cooked perfectly in terms of texture, and how we were all let down by the pasta here. With that said, Mimo's 100% showed me enough to warrant another trip back to give it another shot. I am hoping that one particular night was an anomaly - if it was, then Mimo could easily be my favorite Italian restaurant in all of Houston! read more

Not sure if I want to leave a review and have more people find out about this hidden gem. To say this place is ok, is to say winning the lottery is no big deal. Honestly, found this place just by yelping pasta near me. Thank the lord I live by ratings! This place had a 4.6, but we'll worth it. I would have given it a 5, but no liquor here. Only beer and wine. Italian beer Peroni was great, but an old fashioned would have put this meal over the top! Philip our server was awesome. Gave great recommendations for food and drinks. Everything he suggested was on point. The rustic decor and openness of the dinning room was very well put together. I can only imagine what the building used to look like when it was in its original state. Everything just worked. We can't wait for the weather to get cooler so we can sit in the cute outdoor patio.

Fantastic lunch. Hands down best pasta experience in Houston that I've had in a minute. Also - get the bread (the olive oil is delish and you are going to want to dunk).

Had a very solid dinner at mimo. I'm pretty picky with my Italian and I think this is a great and much needed addition to the Houston Italian food scene. Things I loved: the corn and zucchini fritters, the carrot pizza (very interesting but great), the PANNA COTTA (divine and very generous portion), and the ambiance. For my main I got the Cacio e Pepe. It was pretty good but the pasta was quite overcooked. Tried my friends fettuccine and it was solid but also did not blow me out of the water at all. I think I would come back to try some other things! read more

Service was very accommodating. The food however was not up to par with expectations. The pappardelle was average. The Margherita pizza was solid and what'd you expect from a margherita pizza.

I'm surprised that this restaurant isn't filled with customers- especially during happy hour. Mimo has some solid deals for both food and drinks during 5-6 pm! When you first roll up to the area, there is plenty of parking here so that's always a relief! I love the restaurant's exterior with the pink gates and plants. And when you walk inside, it feels very cozy. Although I didn't get a chance to check out the patio, it looks nice from what I saw. For Happy Hour, I ordered the Crochette, Fritters, and La Pizzetta. And I also got to try a sample of the Amuse Bouche which was super yummy! Out of the three, the Fritters were my favorite. The corn and zucchini made this dish pretty sweet but it was balanced with the parmesan cheese on top. I loved how it was perfectly fried- there's a lot of spots that have a really dense/heavy batter but not the Fritters from Mimo! As for the La Pizzetta, the dough is delicious and made in house! The only thing I wish was different is the texture in the middle of the pizza (it was pretty wet from the sauce/cheese which made the dough soft and the toppings were falling off) but the crust/outer part of the dough was perfect and the flavors were all there. Last but not least, the Crochette! Just like the Fritters, the crochette was fried perfectly and also had the same delicious parmesan cheese on top. The salsa verde sauce underneath gave it a nice kick. In total, I spent $25 for these three dishes which is pretty good! Aside from the food, the service was amazing here. Huge S/O to Tony and Addison who made my dining experience so welcoming here. I loved conversing and getting to know them while enjoying such good food. I hope to come back soon and I can't wait to tell more people about this hidden gem! read more

Mimo - Beef cheek is flavorful and rich - Italian Near Me - Houston, Texas

We are delighted the East End continues to attract more restaurants and with a variety in cuisine. Saturday night, I had one of my top dining experiences of the year. It was one of those meals that - as we were dining - I was planning our return, because savoring each bite in the present was not enough. I wanted to know when I could expect this magnificent meal again. And truth be told, we'll probably be weekly patrons. Our party of four started with the green pea hummus (stracciatella, evoo, toasted hazelnuts, greens, and toast) along with the gorgonzola dolce montato (whipped, black mission figs, walnut brittle, speck, rosemary honey, and ciabatta toast). In the spirit of family-style dining, the sharing of plates continued with the gnocchi (with marinara, parmigiano, basil); cacio e pepe (loved the use of rigatoni instead of spaghetti); bucatini with shrimp; paccheri (castleveltrano pesto, pistachio, mozzarella) ...And for our sole meat dish, the agnello (pan seared bone-in loin chop with romanesco, black peppercorn) had the meat eaters at the table eying every last drop of the saucey plate. Vegetarians and pescatarians: There are so many options, and they're all so delectable, best wishes on deciding what to order! (Again, family-style is the way to go, but I can see why someone wouldn't dare share a bite of their dish). For desserts, we split the panna cotta (vanilla bean, cara cara orange, lemon, mint) and the cioccolato salato (fennel cookie crumble, maraschino cherries, mascarpone cream). Two apps, four pastas, one meat dish, two desserts, and two bottles of wine came out to ~$300 with tax and tip. That's unheard of these days, especially for this level and quality of food, service, wine selection, and cozy ambiance. (Nancy Hustle and Tiny Champions, we love you, but think we found our new date night spot.). Book your reservation now. And if it's a lovely night, do dine al fresco on their patio. And keep an eye out for their wine dinners (they have one coming up on Nov 29, 2023 with two spots open, last I checked). Kudos to co-owners Co-owners chef Fernando Rios (you might be familiar with his pasta skills from Weights + Measures) and Mike Sammons (13 Celsius and How To Survive on Land and Sea) for creating this gem of an Italian trattoria on the East End. Can't wait to explore more of your menu. read more

We had a really nice, cozy Wednesday night dinner here - certainly a hidden gem that deserves more hype and visibility! We were one of a few tables eating in the restaurant that night, although I understand it gets very busy on weekends. Sort of not-obvious to find, but look for the small blue neon sign n the back of the strip center of colorful buildings. Tons of parking, hooray! For food, they recommend you go family-style and order a few starters, couple of pastas, and a main protein to share. We opted for the sweet potato, crochettes, and fritter starters - my favorite was probably the crochettes, but all were really delicious. For pastas we did the fettucine and cacio e pepe - both were so good, but would say you gotta order the cacio e pepe; it was so rich and dreamy. For protein we ordered the gallina cornish hen, and it was also delicious - perfectly cooked to be tender and on a lovely bed of cauliflower mash. To end the night on a sweet note we shared the cioccolato salato - highly recommend! Pair all of that with the house red and you have a winner of a dinner, all for an affordable price IMO. read more

This restaurant is located in the same plaza as bohemeos. I missed the entrance twice, almost thrice. There's so much parking. Inside is very intimate and meticulously clean. We ordered the corn fritters, cacio e Pepe, the roasted red snapper, and the panda cotta. The amuse bouche was amazing. Bread, a nutty-soft cheese, pistachios, and honey. I could not get over how amazing the cheese was. Corn and zucchini fritters were delicious. Topped with honey and shaved romano. The corn was sweet and full of flavor. I didn't taste the zucchini at all but it was still a must try. I really wasn't expecting a lot from John's Cacio de Pepe. But to my surprise, it was actually better than planned. My friend said the pasta was just pasta. The roasted red snapper was cooked perfectly. Fish is so hard to get right and can get over cooked so easily. It was served on a piece of bread, with a slightly acidic red sauce. I liked the capers, onions, pepper, and leek (?). The star of the show was the panna cotta. I loved the vanilla bean at the bottom and top of the dish. The honey, cara cara orange, and a hint of mint. This was a dreamy dish. My friend said he was really shocked by how good it was. We are still talking about the fish and panna cotta the next day. It's been a while since I've been to a restaurant where the food, service, price and quality were in unison. read more
