Visited Mimi's last week on a visit in Murfreesboro and was super impressed! The food was GREAT and our server Mandy was an excellent addition to our visit! After having Eggs Benedict on my mind Mimi's did NOT disappoint! I'm sad there isn't a location near me here in Florida! read more

We just had the best Thanksgiving meal - without making reservations. It took very few minutes to be seated. The meal was delicious; however, it was our server, Mandy, who made the experience so delightful. Will definitely do this again! read more

Very popular place. Very busy at lunch. Very attentive service. Lunch and brunch menus brought to table. Lots of options. The thai chicken wrap was dry and mostly rice. The pick 4 had a roast beef au jus, cream of corn and a super spinach salad. All very tasty. A good meal. Albeit not worth the $48.89 price tag. Only one iced tea and a water... read more

I've been a few times. Our last experience was on Easter and wow it was a mess. They made mistakes on 3 of the orders and my friend had her plate dropped on her lap by the waitress. The basket of bread/pastries is always good at the beginning and most meals are ok- not spectacular. Nice for a chill lunch or brunch even. read more

Very clean, friendly staff. Great seasonal flavors. Visiting from Michigan and happy we stopped in many times during our trip.

Not at all crowded for lunch on a Saturday in a shopping area (The Avenue), so they were adequately staffed to give excellent service. However...at some point our server was replaced without a word and once we settled the check, we were no longer offered beverage refills, and I HATE THAT when I've just tiped 25%! We wanted to sit and visit (our room had only five tables filled) but had to do it over cold coffee and empty water glasses. Tried the French toast made from cinammon roll, along with eggs and bacon. The bacon was beautifully crisped as requested, but the eggs were brown. Personally, I would never have served eggs that looked like that. They tasted a little odd as well. The French toast had a hint of an orange flavor to it I didn't care for, plus it was soggy. Over all, not a pleasant experience except for the company of a great friend. read more

Have only eaten breakfast here and it was excellent. My husband had the egg and bacon sandwich with fried potatoes. So so yummy. I had the egg white and veggie omelette. The goat cheese, fresh tomatoes, and mushrooms were incredible. I loved it! I also really wanted potatoes but I knew they weren't the healthiest opinion, so the waitress suggested to get them roasted and they were so perfect! Yum! Also, get a muffin. The blueberry is our favorite. We'll be back :) read more

Chloe was our server at this location and she was one of the best servers I have had in a while. Since we'll before the pandemic. She took care of our needs before they were needs and was very pleasant to talk to. The entire atmosphere itself was also incredible. Entire staff was superb! read more

Mimi's is slowly becoming one of my favorite spots in Murfreesboro. It's so unassuming from the outside, but the menu boasts a variety of options, and the breakfast is stellar. During our visit today our server was Mel, and she went above and beyond to make our visit a pleasant one. I enjoyed the cinnamon roll French toast (exactly what it sounds like) and my wife ordered the ham and Swiss crepe; the Swiss cheese within the crepe was on point. Great experience all around. Thanks Mel! read more

My husband and I had breakfast at Mimi's Cafe...we were both very disappointed with the staff meaning the bartender. The food was cold and we could tell it was made in advance. Not pleased we are being charged a pretty penny for the quality of food we were given. The bartender also made us feel very unwelcomed and we were only asked once on drinks! This review is given in hope of change!!!! read more

Had to wait to be seated even though empty tables. Tells me they are u see staffed. Was finally seated after 10 minutes. After seating table was very sticky. Menus sticky. Asked a lady to wipe off. She says the cleaner they use and the tables don't mesh. What???? Waited 20 minutes. Then flagged down waiter and asked that manager come over. 5 more minutes. No one even acknowledged our existence. Finally manager comes over and says we seem to be waiting for a few minutes? Cmon people. If you can't take care of patrons, close shop. Gave manager our Menus and left. What a waste read more

We dine fairly frequently at this Mimi's. It is probably our first choice restaurant. On this particular occasion our server misunderstood my wife's order and brought something else. This was quickly corrected and we enjoyed our lunch. We will probably return to this restaurant within the next couple of weeks for a breakfast, lunch, or dinner. read more

Nate was an absolutely wonderful server! I highly recommend asking for him when you go for breakfast/brunch.

Really great breakfast with a French American Menu. Try the Pain Perdu & Mimosas. I didn't get a muffin but they looked fantastic. Cute decor. Waitress was good. I'll be back. read more

Food not good (potatoes tasted like dirt), staff was loud and cussing. Horrible experience.

Best lunch I've had in a long time. The waitress was attentive and there for questions from a first time diner. The food was excellent. I had the Brie mushroom burger and it was cooked to perfection. I would recommend this place to anyone wanting a great lunchtime meal. read more

Mimi's Cafe - Spinach artichoke dip - American Near Me - Murfreesboro, Tennessee

See all

I came in with a friend on 2-17-20 around 8PM. She highly recommended the restaurant. We were promptly sat and ordered drinks. I ordered a Bloody Mary French onion soup, the Cajun pasta dish and a side of spinach and I want to say scalloped potatoes. Let's start with drinks. The Absolute Bloody Mary had the basic consistency of water. It did not appear as if any type of actual mix was used. It seemed to have a splash of tomato juice ( maybe). It was VERY bitter. VERY BITTER so I had my friend try it to confirm that it was super bitter just in case my taste buds were off. She made a very squinty face after tasting it to confirm. I returned the drink and just stuck with my sweet tea. On to the French onion soup. The soup was ok and the bowl was very hot and the cheese was melted, however the soup and onions in the middle of the bowl were just a bit above room temperature to cold. On to the Cajun pasta. When I received it it looked a little dry on the outside as if it had been made for a while or sat out. Some of it was super hot and other pieces of the pasta and even the shrimp were cold. As in refrigerator temperature cold. I can only assume that it was placed in a microwave and then stirred up, as that's the only way I imagine that you can have hot and cold pieces of shrimp and pasta in the same plate. I decided not to finish the dish as the extreme varying temperatures made me worry about bacteria. On to the potatoes. At first glance you could tell the exact size of the container that they came out of as it was congealed in place and you could see that it was scooped out of the corner of the pan and flipped on its side. The potatoes were cold and apparently had been sitting for far too long, as it had basically turned to the consistency of mashed potatoes at that point. Yet again, I didn't finish eating it as it made me worry about bacteria. On to the spinach. The spinach came out in a small plate / container and was VERY salty. ( take into account that I like salt). It also seemed to be sitting under a layer of oil. On to service. The waitress met us at the door and sat us and was prompt on the first drinks and the food. She was also nice but never once asked to refill a drink. She brought out the food to obviously empty glasses but still no refills. I finally picked up both of our drinks and walked almost into the kitchen area and directly asked for a refill of water and sweet tea. As I said, she was friendly and was not rude in anyway. Just needs to work on her refill game. My friend apologized for the recommendation. I'm unsure if they were having an off day or what, however I have definite concerns for ever eating at this restaurant again as I worry that they may only be good when a certain set of employees or managers are working. I have seen some similar reviews addressing temperature and food quality. I hope a strong team member or owner is able to help rectify these issues. read more

Went in for dinner tonight, I have never been so disappointed. For starters there was only 3 of us, no wait at all got sat right away. Took about 10 minutes before the host came over and asked us for drinks due to "server being busy". Then about 20 minutes after I finally got to speak to our server, granted I have been here before food was great service was good but never this bad, the server was very bad. I ordered a baked Brie took about 25 minutes before I got it, then French onion soup which came out cold, my partner ordered chicken strips that came out cold and received none of the sauces she ordered but received ones she was in fact allergic too, we kept trying to get the servers attention, and she ignored us. I ate the soup, but she couldn't even eat the chicken with how cold and chewy it was, the server ended up never checking on us. Being a server myself this was completely unacceptable, I'd be ashamed if I treated my guests or my tables this way. I was so mad and upset with the service I excused myself, and I went to my car. The girls I was with came out and let me know that she dropped the checks off and there were things on each check that wasn't supposed to be there, another server error. She never did ask or take the chicken strips off without a single one being eaten. Truth be told, I have been a server my entire adult life and I have eaten out and been out and I totally understand when things don't go right and I get it more than most. But paying almost $80 for the food which was not edible and the service being so poor, I would seriously recommend never eating here. Even on the way out there were people walking in and I explained how horrible it was and they immediately got in there car and left. An overall poor experience. Definitely recommend going almost anywhere else! read more

We have been to this restaurant a few times and the wonderful service especially Chloe keeps us coming back! No matter what you order the food always tastes great! Don't forget to get their bottomless mimosas! read more

Our waitress, Chloe, was very friendly and helpful with menu selections. She also made sure that we had everything we needed and was fast about getting it to us. Serving size of food was just right, not too big or small. read more

Wonderful restaurant. Very nice decor and atmosphere. Service was very good. Came for breakfast with some friends and had a great time. Food was well worth the price. I had the eggs Benedict and I ate it all. Their muffins are huge and we all shared one. Everything was delicious. read more

Haley was our waitress when we ate here. She was the absolute BEST waitress ever! She is very attentive and knows her stuff! We will definitely be back just because of her. read more

Stopped by last weekend for some MiMis and was lucky to have Nate as our server, and he provided us with an amazing service! Greeted us with a smile and made sure that all our food and requests were taking care of in professional and timely matter! Definitely will be back to see Nate! read more

Let me begin by saying the staff were all top notch. We were greeted and seated immediately and our server was extremely attentive and friendly. We even had a visit from what I assume was the manager. That being said, this was one of the worst meals we have ever been served in a restaurant. No one in my party ate more than a few bites. The chicken was rubbery, the macaroni straight from a box, the eggs curdled, and the potatoes were cold. The green beans, granted, were palatable, but also room temperature. We left practically full plates on the table. We will not be repeat customers. read more

Very great environment we didn't have to wait long to be seated they have an awesome lemon drop... huge portions and the food that we have tried here at each visit has never disappointed. Everything is so amazingly wonderfully good read more

Food was delicious and our service was exceptional! Had the Benedict Florentine - cooked perfectly! Melissa was our server: Friendly, attentive, and happily accommodated me with a special request for my meal. My friend and I both think she could be a trainer for classes on how you do customer service the right way! We even took time to speak with the manager about her. Thank you MELISSA For making our Mimi's Cafe experience FIVE STAR! read more

Service was outstanding...Quite possibly the best cup of coffee I have had in a restaurant. We had a table of 4 everyone enjoyed their breakfast. The food was great... would definitely recommend. read more

Extremely disappointed. Decided to try brunch on a Saturday morning, yet the hostesses were very sweet and attentive. There was about a 15 minute wait and we decided to get mimosas at the bar, while we wait. When we asked about mimosas he failed to tell us about the brunch special $5 mimosas and charged us full price during the special. When our table was ready we were never greeted and waited over 10 minutes with 4 different servers walking past us. Not one person stopped to greet us, or even say they'll be over in a minute. The restaurant was not even full. We eventually gave up and took our business elsewhere. We've both worked in the restaurant industry for many years, but the lack of service was extremely disappointing and unwarranted. read more

Terrible service. We have gone there twice and both times were terribly slow service. And both times there were not many people inside at all. We have come there for our lunch breaks and have an hour, but it took a good 15 min to get drinks, which were all water, and then they hadn't come back to take our order before we decided to leave. This time we waited a few min to be seated, we were barely acknowledged so didn't even bother to stay. read more

Mimi's is one of my favorite restaurants to go to!!!!!! Great service everytime and the food is amazing! Mckenna has been my server the past 4 times i've been in and she is THE BEST!!!! I am now going to request her when i come there because she is very attentive, so full of personality and makes me feel very welcomed when i'm there!!! read more

Melissa was a great server! She was very knowledgeable about the menu and was very patient. The food was excellent, highly recommend the pot roast! read more

Melissa was amazing! Went out for girls brunch and got mimosas! She was so sweet and on top of things! Food and drinks were great!

Always a pleasure to visit Mimi's. Excellent food, variety of choices, friendly staff, convenient location, easy parking. Still our go-to place for a full breakfast. Chicken and waffles was delicious but more than we could eat. Had the half we brought home warmed over this morning and it was just as tasty. Love the muffins - so big they substitute for a grab and go breakfast. read more

Came in by myself for a French pot roast.. Sat in my seat for 10 mins.. Luz came to my table to take care of my order, even though I'm NOT sitting in her section.. She made sure my order got in and she even gave me a pumpkin spice muffin on the house due to my wait.. Thank you Luz.. read more

Been there many times. Always very good service. Love the food. Prices are reasonable for quality and serving sizes read more

This was our third (and last try) at MiMi's. Each time they are seemingly understaffed (yet with plenty of servers floating around), there are more apologies for inaccuracy of orders than correct items, and it is always underwhelming once the food arrives. It's a chain restaurant, and thus your expectations should be consistent....and in this regard the consistency is it is not worth it, even for a chain. read more

Went to Mimi's Cafe this morning with my bride of 48 years. First the good things. My wife got the quiche florentine which she enjoyed. She said that they had improved the crust, not thick an doughy as it used to be. The coffee was good, as was the muffin (carrot spice). We only go to Mimi's when we have a BOGO coupon, even with the coupon it was still $20, partly due to 3.29 each for a cup of coffee and a coke. Ridiculously expensive. With breakfast I do need my coffee and my wife a coke. Next the bad. My ham and cheese omelet was dry and overcooked. I did tell the waitress and the manager but did not send it back even though they offered to replace it. It took so long to get this one I didn't want to wait for another. While we were there we saw four tables send back food, and they weren't that busy. This is the second trip this year, I question a return visit. read more

I used to love their brunch, but the past two times I went here it was not good. I had the quiche and it was over cooked tasteless rubber. The staff however was friendly. It's a shame because it was once good, wonder what happened!! read more

I loved the waiters and the food was very good the waiters were extremely caring and made sure I was okay with everything on my plate as well and my drink, sweet tea. I think that the prices are more on the expensive side but it's worth the money! read more
