This is what the birthday treat looks like for dine in.
Tisha R.

Wow! It's been a few years... there are so many dine out options and with this location being pi of my city, it tend's not to be on our radar. Today is my birthday and if all the places I could've gone, I chose here. We were seated right away and Christine, our server, came over after attending to 2 other tables. I appreciate the recommendations of "what's good" when asked and selected the CHICKEN & QUINOA MEDITERRANEAN Salad without olives. (Pulled roasted chicken, tomatoes, cucumbers, artichoke hearts, onions, olives, teta cheese and quinoa blend on romaine lettuce tossed in red wine shallot vinaigrette.) I never noticed the "cafe decor" at the top. Cute. The restroom is clean and kept well. Thank you Christine for the good service and putting care into my birthday Mixed Berry Muffin Sundae. This was a good choice for a relaxing lunch! I started out with 4 stars because the interior is "old" and could use a remodel. However, the food, service and Christine earned 5 stars.

Mimi's Cafe is one of those reliable spots when you're craving a cozy breakfast or a casual brunch. The atmosphere feels warm and relaxed, with a French-inspired café vibe that makes it easy to settle in and take your time.

Coffee

Terrible experience. The food was burnt. The coffee, everything was not tasting well at all. Server, not nice..Will not go back. I want my $$$$ back

Some nice options to decide on for lunch
Veronica N.

Great service to begin with! What a cute setting, it was nice and quiet inside. We stopped in for a bite to eat over lunch, which was unplanned. The food was delicious and we decided to split the three course pot roast meal and had Caesar salad, along with bread pudding for dessert . Food was served quickly and was nice and hot and delicious. So was the bread pudding. Our server was pleasant and gave some really good suggestions for dessert. Quick,, hot, and delicious with friendly service to sum everything up . We will definitely be back!

Lighter decor
Alicia J.

This place has really improved! The service was good, the food was amazing and the place is lighter than it used to be. The tables and chairs are a little worn and could be improved on, but other than that, my husband and I had a good time! The tomato basil soup left me for wanting more--it was so good!

Dirty bathroom

I came here once before a year ago thinking things would be different. Wow. Who is in charge of this restaurant? Clean it, it's disgusting. The service is friendly, the food is pretty good.

Part of their extensive menu
Shirley V.

Dined: 11.3.24: Enjoyed a nice relaxing Sat brunch. Discussed some serious topics and enjoyed our lovely brunch. Server was attentive even as we stayed for a while. We all had the Santa Fe Omelet and all 4 of us enjoyed theirs. The place is super cute like a French bistro. The extensive menu had pictures which I love. Lol. The expresso martini was yummy! See you SOON!!

Thanksgiving Day Dinner
Donna L.

We went to Mimi's café for Thanksgiving 2025. I want to say it was my first time going here and the service was great. Our reservation being a holiday wasn't bad. We reserved an open table a month prior the food was absolutely spot on AMAZING !! They gave us so much food we took food home. I will go back. I will recommend them. The staff was awesome. 10/10

Triple berry iced tea
Heidi A.

Top notch ambiance and service. I love the cute French cafe vibes. The brick walls, the pictures on the wall are so very esthetically appealing. Our server was very friendly and helpful, very quick to respond and offered us with whatever we needed, had a great smile as well. The food was okay. The complimentary bread was very nice, and the price is pretty good for the portion. I ordered a blue crab and shrimp pasta, and it was really soupy. I wish it had more creamy consistency rather than watery. My fiancé ordered the 3 course meal and that was more than enough for him as well. When we do come here next, I'd just try something else and see :)

I ordered the Salmon Bundle with bourbon glaze, seasoned rice, and 6 croissants. Everything was really good, and the pickup was super quick! Now let's talk about these croissants because BABYYYY! Where have y'all been my whole life?! The moment they handed me my food, those croissants had my FULL attention. I ate two in the car before I even made it home. Honestly, I wanted all six! Pros: Quick pickup, delicious food, convenient for meal prepping, and those AMAZING croissants! Cons: None! No complaints over here. Would I recommend it? Absolutely! 10/10 experience. If you're busy and don't have much time to cook, definitely consider their family meals. And please don't sleep on those croissants!

We made plans to check it out, and since that first visit I've probably been back three times -- and every single experience has been wonderful. If you sit at the bar, you can watch the chefs cook right in front of you while the bartenders make your drinks, which is such a fun experience. The cocktails are amazing, and the staff always has great recommendations if you're not sure what to order. But the FOOD is a whole other story. Everything I've tried here has been incredible. I genuinely don't think I've ordered a single thing that I didn't love. The atmosphere might be one of my favorite parts, though. It has this beautiful, expensive, upscale feeling without actually being ridiculously expensive. It's so nice to have something like this on the West Side where you can get dressed up and have a nice birthday dinner or date night and feel like you're somewhere special without the price tag being completely crazy. The staff is amazing, the service has consistently been great, the cocktails are fantastic, and the food is incredible. After multiple visits, I can confidently say this has become one of my favorite spots and easily one of the best places in Peoria. I absolutely love it here and will continue coming back!

It's a little moody w/ dim lighting and has a cool throwback feel to another era. My bestie & I ordered Old Fashioneds. They were good, although they were a bit on the light-pour side. I ordered the Wagyu meatballs, and they were absolutely delicious. My hubs and the rest of the table ordered the burger. They enjoyed them, but fair warning: the burger has a bit of a kick! The gentleman spinning vinyl for the evening had an amazing playlist. Each song seemed better than the one before. Overall, it was a fun atmosphere, great music, and a really enjoyable night out!
