Rude manager accosted us for bringing our dogs despite the fact that we called and said we had two people and two dogs and they told us we would be sat outside. We paid for our food and left - the food was gross so it's not like we were missing out. The Utah state attorney general is going to be hearing about his. read more

So this might not be the place to take out of towners to wow them with local culinary flair...but for what it is, it's not bad. I always think of Mimi's Cafe as a TGI Friday's for breakfast. They do have a lunch and dinner menu also, but I'll limit this review to our brunch outing. The cheesy French quarter decor adds some character, albeit predictable and not necessarily authentic. On this Sunday morning, we arrived to a packed waiting room, but the hostess promised 10 minutes for a table for 4. True enough, just a few minutes later we were seated. The server was quick with the coffee and hot chocolate (which came with the kiddos' meals), and our food didn't take long either. As I mentioned, this is pretty standard breakfast fare, done well enough to satisfy if you're looking for, well, standard breakfast fare. Overall, service was very good, food was just fine, and in a pinch, Mimi's is a good option for a quick brunch on a busy Sunday. read more

wow. wish I would have viewed the rating prior to coming in. I cannot even begin to explain my experience. Just don't go there!!!! read more

We made reservations for Thanksgiving here and when we showed up there was a 45 min wait! They had over booked and there was a line out the door! How the hell do you over book that much???? Because some of us had a flight later that day we couldn't wait that long. We ended up eating else where having a normal meal. This completely RUINED OUR THANKSGIVING!!! I'm so pissed about this, I can't even believe that overbooking to make more money was more important than happy, satisfied costumers! That's how clientele is lost and businesses fail! read more

The food was good but service was bad. Our server was rude and ignored us the entire time. We had to stop other servers multiple times to get things such as refills or for them to bring us our food. It was 45 minutes before our food was delivered to our table. We did occasionally see our server in other parts of the restaurant and she was on her phone or socializing instead. read more

Very disappointed in my visit. I waited for 5 minutes to be seated, I then was ignored most my visit other than my order being taken and the check. I wanted to get another drink but didn't have an opportunity as I was never checked on. As a seasoned server, and a frequent solo diner, I can say I was not impressed. Hopefully this establishment can address the service issues. Positive side, the food is always delish. read more

Hostess decided that taking a call was more important than us. The call was ringing when we came in, she picked it up and kinda just ignored us. I wanted to leave them but we were hungry. Waitress wasn't very attentive and didn't fill our drinks when they were empty. The meal, while delicious was overpriced for the amount served. My husband wanted an egg in his salad...they charged him $2 for it and it wasn't even a large egg. We had been looking forward to this visit as we have always liked Mimi's, but the service and portion size just wasn't worth the price. read more

Their muffins are my favorite, favorite thing. We regularly pick up a dozen to take home. Love the bran muffins. The French toast is great, as are the mimosas. Though not bad, on the few occasions I've ordered an omelette, I've noticed they haven't been very flavorful. Everything else I've ordered has been great, and the staff has always been pleasant read more

I used to love this Mimi's, but this is the last time I will visit this place & I will make sure my family, friends, & clients avoid this establishment. I was here w/my husband; we were seated in front of the coffee bar, & we could easily hear & see the ruckus with all the servers, cooks, & even the manager. They were rowdy, foul mouthed, & it was very unprofessional behavior for a mid-level restaurant. We had to send back out shrimp, because it was raw. Then the waitress drops off our check just as we began eating our dinner, as if they're trying to rush us out of there. She comes back within minutes to see if we had placed a credit card in the check holder without bothering to ask if we would like dessert. The only reason why I give this place 2 stars is because our food was delicious but not enough to EVER come back. It felt like we were in some loud ghetto bar & she didn't even know we had sent our raw shrimp back...very poor communication between the employees. We decided to have dessert elsewhere. read more

The other day my gal and I went for some dinner here after doing some shopping. I'm glad we did. Though the charm of the restaurant was stilted, the food and service were not. I ordered a burger and my gal ordered mac 'n cheese. My burger was slightly pink inside, which I do not like but it was very tasty and I am not usually one to complain about or send back anything, so I sucked it up and ate it. My gal's mac n' cheese had bacon so I am sure you can see it was good already. Friendly service, good food. We'll be back for brunch soon. read more

Went for lunch and had the French dip. After waiting 20 minutes to be served....when it arrived the meat looked like beef jerkey. Taste was so so. But the major turn off is the booths are disgusting and the seat backs were beyond filthy. So black on the ends you could no longer see the pattern in the fabric. The ladies bathroom was no better. Used to be a great place. What happened? read more

Bad service, bad food!!! My burger was grossly underdone. And we only got half of our other dish that we ordered. And didn't see the server for a long time. It took about an hour and a half from the time I came in. Until the moment we got half of one dish and a raw burger. And sent it back and left. Hope y'all pull it together! read more

Had the salmon, best salmon I've ever had in Utah! Their deserts are so delicious! Definitely coming back again!

I have been twice in the past year and both times, the food really let me down. My problem is I remember going here over the years and loving the entrees. So I told myself the last time that it was an off night but after today, I need to accept reality. We used to have family gatherings here because it was comfort-food heaven. Now food looks manufactured. The meatloaf is a dark brown slice of ground meat that's overseasoned (do the cooks even taste it?), and the exact oval shape suggests it came straight out of the freezer into the microwave. The turkey plate was 2 identical pressed slices of turkey topped with gravy, the dressing mushy and the mashed potatoes no longer even warm. No option to order sweet potatoes. But the biggest disappointment was no more bread baskets! When I asked about it halfway through our meal, the server brought three tough slices of French bread with a margarine spread. She couldn't say why no more cornbread and muffins like they used to include as part of the meal (as it was her first week). Service was super slow, had to wait 15 minutes to get water. I don't know what's happened, Mimi's, but now, I have to eat my words and look elsewhere for the comfort food we enjoyed there in the past. read more

A small little quaint cafe in Paris? Nope your at Mimi's. With their French inspired menu and fresh baked pastries this place has something for everyone. They offer an awesome selection of crepes, my personal favorite is the ham and swiss with brie. They even have all the favorites from chicken fried steak to chicken and waffles. Great friendly service and a fresh glass of house made delicious OJ to compliment any meal. Bon appetite! read more

Disgusting, flavorless food. Not to mention the service was terrible! The kids macaroni and cheese is literally from a Kraft box. The new revamped menu is filled with odd dishes. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. read more

I can't say enough good things about Mimi's. The atmosphere was super cute! The service was spectacular! My 1 year son got a complimentary cup of Cheerios and orange slices. We god two complimentary muffins that were amazing! I ordered the eggs benedict and my husband an omelette and we both thought the food was great. We also ordered plain coffee that was delicious. The waitress even filled up a fresh to go cup for us. They just went above and beyond! read more

We recommend avoiding Mimi's for breakfast. Our hopes were high because we've had good evening meals at Mimi's in Sandy. We walked in the door and waited 5 minutes before anybody noticed we were there (we should have hightailed it across the parking lot to I-Hop at that point). Eventually got seated and served lukewarm coffee. Tried 3 cups, all lukewarm. I had the caprese omelet which (except for the fresh mozzarella) tasted like...nothing. It didn't taste bad, it just didn't have any flavor whatsoever. Ingredients promised on the menu weren't in the omelet. There are a couple upsides: Our waitperson was helpful and friendly. Breakfast comes with juice (albeit from concentrate) and a muffin that was decadent and delicious. read more

I honestly don't understand the bad reviews! We have been here several times and we love it. This is the place I take someone for breakfast when I want to impress. The atmosphere and ambiance is so nice and love the fireplace. We always have had good service here. The breakfast is above average, the country potatoes are awesome and I love the side choices they give you. I always get one of their delicious homemade muffins, which you can also buy there. We will be back over and over again. Highly recommend! Please try it out ... I really don't get the undeserved bad reviews. read more

A long time customer for years but only go once or twice a year. Generally speaking the food and service is good in my experience. My wife developed celiac disease last year and we recently went back for the first time since then. She has to give the wait person specific instructions in order to get her meal cooked gluten free. She asked for her entree to be cooked in a separate skillet so that it would not be contaminated from the main grill with gluten. The waitress said no problem. Later in the day my wife got very sick leading her to believe that in fact it was not cooked separately but on the main grill. Both my daughter and I were fine so I don't believe it was food poisoning. So somewhere there was a breakdown with either the instructions (or lack of) the waitress gave the kitchen or what the kitchen actually did. Unfortunately we won't be going back. read more

I love Mimi's Cafe. My only complaint is how LOUD it is when they are busy. I love the honey bran muffin-yes I know, it has bran, but it is SO delicious! I also love the East Coast Reuben and really should venture out on trying something different but I usually get that! I usually go on a Monday so I can enjoy their Split Pea soup-which you can't find at too many restaurants and I love it! Service can be hit or miss, but usually I luck out and have decent service. For a chain restaurant-this one is pretty decent! read more

As a past employee of Mimi's in southern california, I was disappointed in some of my favorite menu items that were selected for elimination. The latest menu seems to have strayed from what Mimi's used to be quite a bit. However, with that being said, I didn't really find a fault with the new menu. Perhaps there are too many options to the point that making a decision is harder than I would like, but I suppose that just means I need to go back and try them all. Woe is me. read more

Mimis has been a favorite for years, however the one in Murray seems to have lost its edge. We ordered and waited well over half an hour in an almost empty restaurant and and refilling our drinks ourselves, with no sign of our server or our food we went to Carls. read more

Pretty good food. I had their meatloaf and mash. Our waiter was nice and helpful as well as brought us refills prior to asking.

They no longer have the honey bran muffins...HUGE MISTAKE! They were everyone's favorite so no clue who decided to get rid of them. Also, no Orange Marmalade...crazy! Please rethink your new menu and bring back what we looked forward to coming here for! read more

Today met dear friends for what was to be a delightful and scrumptious Sunday brunch. The Service was attentive and pleasant. Our order of Eggs Benedict andChicken and Waffle took 37 minutes to reach our table! The Eggs Benedict was horrifically over cooked, We counter the cubed hash browns ... 23, insult to injury, cold! The Chicken and Waffles also arrive cold and the chicken was so dry that it must have been frozen and microwaved prior to service. All in all a "HUGE" disappointment. When I brought these issues up to our server, she graciously discounted our meal by a few dollars. Other choices are available, I will in the future seek them out! read more

I recently went here and had the pot roast as I have a number of times in the past. This time I wasn't very impressed, the piece of meat was a smaller portion than in the past and was very fatty. The vegetables on the plate consisted of 3 small broccoli crowns and 5 carrot slices and the gravy was very commercialized. On the plus side my wife enjoyed her salad and the service was good. If you go just stay away from the pot roast. read more

I went to Mimi's last night. I haven't been there in about a year. I used to love Mimi's and now I will never go there again. Our server was really nice and I've always experienced quality service at Mimi's. However, they changed their menu and have completely gone downhill with quality and uphill with price. They used to have a really good deal for a soup or salad, main and dessert for about $10. You can still get a soup or salad and a main for about $10, but no dessert. The chicken crepe used to be my favorite. Last night, I had the crepe and Caesar salad. My thought was how in the world can you go wrong with salad? There was way too much sauce on the salad. There was sauce for the crepe, but I had no idea there was already sauce inside the crepe. The crepe was soggy and there was no flavor to anything. Such a disappointment. One more restaurant in Salt Lake to not go to. Really disappointed, Mimi's. You were my favorite, but not anymore. Not at all. read more

So I went here tonight and it was DISGUSTING! I'm not picky, but I think I would have rather gone to McDonald's! The food was not good and for price we spent, I was not impressed. We also had to wait twenty minuets at our table for the check. The food and service here sucked! read more

My boyfriend and I have dined at this particular location multiple times before, however the day after Halloween gave us the worst experience we have ever had eating here. I ordered a mocha, and received a latte. I pointed out the mistake, and in return received a second latte with a giant sludge of Hershey's chocolate syrup at the bottom. I couldn't even stomach it, and the "corrected" mocha remained untouched for the rest of the breakfast. After that the food came out separately. My boyfriend received his food in about 30-40 minutes whereas I received my food in around 50-60 minutes. This was after our server had informed us it would only be a 15 minute wait time to get our food. I had to sit and watch my boyfriend finish his food, then he in return had to wait for me to eat mine. My boyfriend only received a portion of his food. He ordered an omelette that came with toast the toast remained MIA. I requested a box and never got it even after paying, at which point I had to request another. The food we received wasn't terrible, but it was clearly rushed. It's clear a lack of staff, and training is holding this location back. I'll continue to dine at other Mimi's for my Sunday breakfast fix, but this is the last time we will come to this particular location. read more

Boo! Went for lunch with a group of nine. The waiter did his best, but the food was so SLOw. Took almost 90 minutes to get food. We asked for the manager and she didn't come for ten minutes. Asked for her again, and she finally came. Barely apologized and told us she would do something. Food was awful. Had to ask and wait 10 more minutes for manager who never came. Waiter finally said she comped food. We were celebrating a coworkers promotion and the experience just killed the vibe. Boo! Sad face emoji. read more

Stopped here for lunch and got the turkey club: pressed turkey and stale white bread, plus store bought lemonade to choke it down. Seriously bad bad bad! read more

My wife and I chose to eat here after getting out of the hospital. We show up and there's no one there to greet us. After about 10 minutes a waitress finally notices and acts all confused. I ordered a 12 dollar sandwich and it was horribly bland. I can here the waitresses conversations and joking around with each other which is annoying when you're trying to enjoy yourself and paying to do so. This was my first and last experience at a Mimi's read more

Wonder concept of the breakfast - Crap Cake Benedict - does that not sound wonderful, it was not. The cake was soggy tasteless, the eggs were rocks not juice and creamy. Come on guys you have let the food loss all its quality. read more

Oh my, baked brie...mmmmm. My first visit was very fun!!! I loved the chicken salad and French Soup. I loved the decore, the colors, the variety. read more

breakfast okay, lunch not too bad dinner bad, dessert is microwaved eww. do not recommend this place its over rated over priced and I have never been really impressed with anything here but the service. read more

Every single time we go to this Mimi's we are immediately reminded of why we do not want to go there again. We always find empty tables and booths but the greeter ALWAYS says they are swamped and that there is a wait. Plus they are always sharp voiced impolite and temperamental. read more

I always go for breakfast. I have never had a problem with the food. I went for lunch and it was bad. I was served a cup of french onion soup with a piece of burnt black toast in it. The waitress brought it to my table commented on the burnt bread and placed in down in front of me. I cant eat dairy so the bread was very visible. WOW!!!! I would not have brought that to a guests table. I ordered the turkey dinner and it was served cold. Very disappointing lunch. read more

Utterly flavorless breakfast. Specialty BLT Avocado Omelet - no flavor. Regular blueberry muffin - revolting. I specifically confirmed that this was not a "fat free" muffin but I am 100% sure it was fat free - gross. I remember when Mimi's used to have scrumptious food but this was a waste of calories. I should have eaten at the IHOP next door. read more

I received a gift certificate for Mimi's. I had eaten there one other time and it wasn't anything that I remembered. So when I came back I was really surprised on how good the food was. I ordered the jambalaya noodle dish. It was a huge portion and I had plenty to take home with me. The complimentary bread basket was good. And had 3 different breads. The staff was friendly and helpful. I will come back for sure. read more
