Arnold Palmer
Poncella H.

I met 3 of my Navy friends on yesterday. 3 of us live here, one was passing through on his cross country driving adventure trip . He surprised us by paying for our meals , I told him bless you. He lives in Newport News, VA. I looked at the restaurant 's menu the night before to get an idea of what I would like to eat . I settled on the half roasted chicken. My chosen sides were their mashed potatoes & garlic spinach . My drink was their Arnold Palmer. The skin on my roasted chicken was delicious but wait pump the brakes my chicken was dry pulled another piece same conclusion. Quickly requested a to go box which Ricardo our waiter brought to us along with bags to carry out with us .

Menu

My husband was craving steak & eggs. I was looking for places near Arlington. I found this one on google. The inside is cute & we felt welcomed as soon as we walked in. They have seasonal menu which I thought it was pretty cool. What I liked about this restaurant is that they have breakfast all day. We got there at 2:30pm. Which was convenient for us. I got the French toast, it was a 8/10. I added the strawberries to them. My eggs were ehhhh... I didn't like them or the sausage. The sausage was too thick. I didn't eat them. My husband loved his steak & eggs. My son loved his pancakes. I thought they were cute. I tried his pancakes & they were pretty good. Our server was Chris. She was attentive & nice. We will definitely come back to try more of their menu even if it means driving 45+ mins.

caramel macchiato with whipped cream

Great beautiful customer service. Food was 4. Would have received a 5, but salmon was severely overcooked. Nevertheless, I'd go back. My table was able with there food.

Meatloaf, Mashed Potatoes, Spinach
Qiana D.

Enjoyed chicken cordon bleu and meatloaf with the red wine shallot sauce, both with potatoes au gratin. Amazing service as usual!

Malt Waffle

First time at this Mimi's. It's tucked away in the Highlands shopping district, but has lots of parking and easy access. Busy on a Monday morning, but we were greeted warmly seated immediately. Love the French country ambiance and the cleanliness. The food was excellent. Quality ingredients and prepared perfectly. The malt waffles were amazing! Highly recommend!

I got brunch here with friends and it was stunning. I ordered a breakfast burrito and the portion size was generous. Our waiter remembered everyone's orders and kept the free drink refills steadily flowing. We appreciated that they reserved a big table for us and were cool with issuing separate checks for everyone in our party. I was tempted to try the frou-frou coffee drinks - maybe next time!

Blueberry muffin

First time at Mimi's Cafe. The waiter Oscar helped me with the breakfast menu and recommendations. I ordered the Grand breakfast with option to pick French toast waffles or pancakes. I enjoyed my order. I also observed a busboy cleaning tables pretty quickly. I found out his name is Mario. He does a great job cleaning up and having the tables ready for the customers. My friend and I spoke with the Manager Francisco. He told him that we admired Mario's work ethic. Side note, my friend's meal was a tad cold and requested it to be warmed up. The staff oblige and heated up the meal. The manager gave us a blueberry muffin (complimentary) it was so delicious. I recommend the blueberry muffin.

Breakfast time
Chuck M.

It was a Saturday morning, we had just done our civic duty and donated blood, now it was time for a hearty breakfast. We hadn't been to Mimi's for a while, they were known for their wonderful muffins and breakfasts, so Mimi's it was! Fortunately, there was there no wait on a Saturday morning, we were seated immediately. Bring on the piping hot coffee, then lets talking about what we're having for breakfast. Our attentive server made some suggestions from the plethora of choices. To complicate matters, seasonal choices were listed on the blackboard. Decisions, decisions, what to order? After looking over the menu, way TOO many choices to consider, we finally had some choices nailed down. My wife decided on Quiche Lorraine accompanied with breakfast potatoes and one of Mimi's delicious blueberry muffins. I was a bit more adventurous ordering their spinach artichoke omelet with breakfast potatoes and a buttermilk spice muffin. While waiting on breakfast entrees to arrive, we enjoyed conversation, people watching and Mimi's wonderful coffee. It was SO good. After a short wait, our server brought our beautifully presented breakfast entrees. Our table got very quiet as both of us enjoyed our wonderful breakfasts. My wife said the quiche was one of the best she's ever had. My spinach artichoke omelet was prepared perfectly, so fluffy and not overly cooked. The breakfast potatoes were a nice addition to our platters. As we finished our breakfasts, we both agreed not to wait too long before we headed back over to Mimi's for a special weekend dining experience.

Fried Chicken & Waffles
Vivian L.

Went for Sunday brunch and got seated fairly quick considering it was busy. Our waitress Chris was nice, but busy with a bigger party in her section. The drinks were really good. The food looks nice, but it was okay at best. We had asked one of the servers who brought out food for more chips for our artichoke dip, but he never returned with chips. I was genuinely looking forward to going to Mimi's since it's been a long time since the last time I came to eat here, so I'm mildly disappointed in the food.

Crab cake Benedict with potato ( added onions n peppers) Was worth the additional cost
Willow Y.

Fantastic place !!! Great presentation and even better flavor !! What I ordered: - crab cake Benedict ( exceptional!!!) -chorizo tacos ( very tasty) -chocolate chip puppy ( I have a picky kid that actually ate!!! That should say something he doesn't even like eggs and ate the eggs. And loves bacon and ate the bacon. Also I gave him fruit he happily ate that as well!! ). I have to many good things to say about this place. My white peach mimosa was sooo good!!! Normally mimosas don't taste that great but this place and this one was a winner winner !!!! It made my whole breakfast come together and very enjoyable!!! Will tell friends n family Finally a five star place with REAL good food!! And Real good customer service that actually cares !!! As I did have to call them 3 times ( I felt so bad I didn't want to bother them) they were kind and patient and helped me with all my questions:)

They were happy to be there serving great tasting food and you could feel their pride. Many people were chatting away enjoying company in an intimate room. A great spot for a date. While we waited for our food, we enjoyed their French bread from a wholesale french bakery in dallas with their housemade butter. It was delicious. I made a mess of crumbs and I was glad the server came by to clean them up. Delicious though! We ordered the French onion soup, scallop appetizer with side of carrots, wagyu and fries. The French onion soup was ah-ma-zing! Perfectly seasoned (not overly salted like some like to do) and the cheese and onions really stood out. The scallops surprised me with the walnuts. I've never had that combo and enjoyed it. The appetizer portion turned out to be the perfect size along with the other items we ordered. The wagyu was just okay for me. It was soft and nicely cooked but under salted. I did love the peppercorns with it. The frites were wonderfully crispy and had an addicting seasoning on top. Lastly, the star of the show: decaf cappuccino with their pistachio coconut crisp with berries on top of a citrus sponge. Presentation was top notch and taste was mouth watering. You will not regret ordering this dessert! More praise to their cappuccino is needed. Awhile ago I searched for the best cappuccino in Fort Worth and I never found it. Well, tonight I did. Wonderful thick froth and freshly grated nutmeg on top. The chef came out to check each table after finishing their main course; I appreciated this personal touch that seems to be in everything they do. I will gladly return to enjoy another wonderful meal at Paris 7th.

We started with the complimentary bread, and the butter served with it was so delicious I wanted to buy some--unfortunately, they don't sell it. For appetizers, my husband ordered the French onion soup, and I chose the escargot. He thoroughly enjoyed the soup. The escargot was enjoyable, though not my personal favorite. I especially liked the foie gras pâté, which was rich, creamy, and flavorful. For the mains, my husband had the beef tenderloin with cognac-black peppercorn sauce and thin French fries. He said the steak was cooked perfectly, and the sauce was exceptional. I ordered the duck breast, which was tender, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. For dessert, we shared the brandy ice, which was refreshing and similar to a smoothie, and I had the classic crème brûlée, which was a wonderful way to end the meal.

After our entrees, we were "oh so bad" and ordered the Nutella Crepes, as dessert, to share....and they were worth being bad for. THEY WERE DELICIOUS!! I am looking forward to my next visit to Le Margot. (And it doesn't hurt that my youngest granddaughter shares the same name...minus the "Le")

My wife (who isn't the soufflé type) prefers Rise's salad niçoise with the steak and pomme de terre for her main course. Her go-to dessert is the gâteau de chocolat. We've also enjoyed their classic crème brûlée. If you've never had soufflé, I firmly believe Rise is a must visit. I highly recommend them.

French onion soup-- super good, meaty flavor, robust, I had been purposely holding off on trying…read moreFrench Onion Soup until i was in France but I am so glad i went with my first mind and tried this soup, I can't describe how delicious, juicy and warming it was. My date said it had more juice in it than he was expecting but it was really good. Duck soufflé -- Banger, 12/10. Kira, our server, told us about the specials and as soon as i heard Duck i was sold on it. It has an orange glaze on top that pairs so well with the tender duck. I would come back for this one alone! If you don't like a bit of sweet with your savory, we are NOT the same Crab meat soufflé-- The crab meat souffle smelled like smoked salmon as soon as it touched the table. the smell was intoxicating almost! Imagine that tom and jerry episode with Tom floating along ith the smell of a pie wafting in the windowsill. Yeah that was me, smelling this crab soufflé. Undeniably soft and fluffy, warm but not juicy at all like the duck. While the duck was more liquid, this one reminded me of a fish omelet. Im still unsure if a soufflé is truly bread like i was told or if it's a fancy omlet. either way, this soufflé was a star 10/10. I also mixed it with the duck and a bit of orange glaze and PUT IT ON THE MENU !! It was sooo good, honestly, I should've asked for a side of orange glaze to put on the crab one! Banana foster soufflé-- The banana foster souffle was not my favorite. I like banana foster but this was definitely a new experience. It took a while to decide if i liked the consistency (remeniscent of oatmeal cooked until smooth and airy) and turns out, I did not like it. The idea was beautiful and i can see where they were going with it but the banana is almost too overwhelming to taste anything else , the cream they offer with it is sweet but doesn't soften the taste at all. I like bananas so this wasn't that big of an issue to me. This is not to say that it was nasty, it is simply an aquired texture. Waiter -- Kira -- extremely sweet, knowledgeable about the soufflés ! I've never had one before and she expressed the food so well that i was fighting with my self to figure out which to order. She recommended some GREAT soufflés and was overall very kind with quick service. I was especially impresed with her memorizing the menu to where she rattled it off without even a rushed pause. Fantastic service. Atmosphere - The inside is so unique. I loved the decor, especially the table deisgn. It felt distinctly like France came to Texas and sprinkled a bit of southern hospitality all over it. it was a darker, intimate spot that has a good area or two for gtroups. I think a group of four is the sweet spot but they can accomodate more. From the managers to the chefs to the servers and bartender and hostess, every one was kind, patient and friendly. I rather enjoyed being checked up on every so often.
