I was in the area taking a meeting and wanted to try something new for dinner. I pulled up Yelp and found Mimmo Italian and was very excited from the jump. Luckily it lived up to the hype and my expectations! It's a carryout place, FYI, with a few chairs for waiting if you walk in and order which is what I did. They do have online orders, which I tried to do ahead of time, but my card was being dumb so I decided to just swing by and order IRL. That gave me ample time to check everything out, too! Upon walking in I was charmed by the staff who were VERY nice (and offered me lots of gelato to sample as I waited for my order!). The second thing I noticed were the delicious looking baked goods and desserts behind the counter. Breads, cookies, cannoli, tiramisu, cheesecakes, etc. I grabbed a chocolate chunk cookie to nibble on during the drive home plus a strawberry cheesecake and tiramisu for dessert. All were outstanding! For our entrees I ordered a couple of things for my husband and I to split--the chicken parm sandwich and a margarita calzone with added Italian sausage. LOVED both but my favorite was definitely the calzone. If you're a fan of a gooey, cheese situation you're gonna love it too. Also the portions are HUGE! I got both for us but we could have split one of them. Each was double what I expected and we had leftovers for days! The gelato was also excellent. They offer several sizes, including pints, perfect for taking home and stocking the freezer. They didn't have the flavor I wanted pre-scooped in the cooler (the cherry stracciatella) but they kindly hooked me up. So good!! Speaking of coolers, they also have another cooler stocked with a ton of beverages, including some fancy imported Italian sodas (many I had to look up while I waited since I didn't recognize them). They also have a few dry goods. Not a ton but a few some bonus goodies like pasta sauces, olive oil, jarred preserves, etc, to pick up when you stop in to grab dinner or dessert. I wish I lived a bit closer but they're not TOO far and I'd absolutely go out of my way to get everything again. Especially because the portions which would feed us for a few days! read more

Got a carry out dinner with ribs and chicken parmesean pizza. Both were great but maybe I would prefer a different bbq sauce and a side of sauce with the pizza. Props to Mimmo Italian that they even make this chicken parmesean "pizza" wow! read more

Mimmo Italian - Chicken Parmesean Pizza...wow! - Pizza Near Me - South Lyon, Michigan

I was recommended this restaurant by my father, who stays in Wixom and visits all the time. The first time I went, I had the biggest Italian sandwich I'd ever seen on a hulking loaf of fresh bread. The second time, I had their Salsicia e' Rapini 12" pizza. Actually, 2 days in a row I had that pizza. I also enjoyed the Vanilla Latte from the cafe, and for a normal latte -- it was way better than I expected it to be (South Lyon isn't known for its coffee) . My observations were: * This place is so clean and vibrant. * The freshness of the ingredients definitely comes across. * I think you can expect a high quality meal from this place, no matter what you get! * If I liked Gelato I would have gotten it from here for sure! read more

Mimmo Italian - Salsicia e' Rapini 12" pizza - Pizza Near Me - South Lyon, Michigan

For my 1401st review, I wanted to try someplace that looked really enticing; a spot that I've been meaning to cross off my list for a minute but just haven't had the opportunity to try yet. Enter Mimmo's of South Lyon, whose website does a phenomenal job of highlighting the quality of what they're all about. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Clean and bright inside, with a super friendly staff and incredible eats! My pizza and sub came out pretty fast considering I placed a walk-in order. It was shortly after they opened so I'd expect that at peak dinner hours they're running longer wait times?! I ordered a Classic Italian sub on a BEAUTIFUL sesame seeded artisan baguette. It was a huge sandwich. For comparison's sake, I'll mention that I very much like a Jersey Mike's sub and usually order two when I'm really ready to eat my feelings...the one sub from Mimmo's was enough for lunch and then lunch the next day too. (Disclaimer: there is a lot of bread as it came on their freshly baked baguettes but if you love bread it's pretty incredible; the proportion of toppings to bread was perfect.) I also ordered a medium 12" Salsicia e' Rapini pizza to cover my bases. It had a good amount of broccoli rabe lending a balanced bitterness to the ground Italian sausage, and the roasted garlic bits with their sweetness really rounded out the profile of the pie, all cheesy with the mozzarella and Romano and served up on a great crust. The only advice I have is: follow my lead and order a gelato while you wait and don't forget to take a pint home for dessert, too. It doesn't get any better than Mimmo's! It's a spendy option no doubt but it was well worth it if you're looking for something extraordinary. read more

Thank you Mimmo's! We ordered our son's graduation dinner take out style. The food was amazing! My whole family raved about the entire meal: roasted chicken was juicy, potatoes were delicious, broccolini was tender and tasty, pasta was done perfectly. But the showstopper was the sausage and peppers - there is no doubt this was the best dinner we have had from Mimmos. We were loyal customers before but we are convinced that this is a place worth visiting again and again! Thank you!! read more

Cute place for carry out. Everything was delicious and fresh. Prices are a bit high but the portions are huge so you can definitely share the entrees. Also tried the gelato which was delicious! Thanks Mimmo! read more

Great food. Great service. The Detroit style deep dish pizza is a must along with the Italian sandwich. Gelato looks amazing.

Found this cute little Italian takeout spot in South Lyon and had to give it a whirl. I was so impressed with the freshness of everything. The margherita pizza was delicious! The fresh mozzarella and basil were perfect and you can tell. I'm not sure if it's wood fired, but the crust/dough was cooked to my liking! I don't like pizza that's too thick or doughy. We also got a beet salad, and the balsamic vinaigrette dressing was perfect. I love that they used golden beets in addition to red beets! I devoured it. We also got some gelato to-go. I did a split scoop of lemon sorbetto and cantaloupe sorbetto. OMG, the cantaloupe sorbetto was so unique and tastes just like cantaloupe. So refreshing and delicious! I can't wait to go back and try more items on the menu! I forgot to take pictures because I was so hungry, we just started eating right away! The staff were also very polite and helpful there. read more

Service was amazing and gelato was so delicious! Can't wait to try more. Great portions sizes for the price.

Gave this place a try recently. I saw a lot of people post about gelato. I did not try Genaro but I ordered the eggplant sandwich. It amazing. I loved how the eggplant was breaded and cooked. I loved the bun. I'm really picky about breads. I would order this every time! The place is clean. The staff is wonderful. They have a pretty big lunch menu. If you are looking for good Italian check it out. read more

No indoor seating so come prepared. Food was excellent and a great value. We got a sub and a calzone and had easily enough food for 4 people. read more

We had a last minute change of plans when, instead of going out for dinner, my family wanted to eat at home. Since I wasn't prepared, I called Mimmo Italian and asked if they could do a half tray of lasagna for me. They were able to have it ready at the time I wanted and it was absolutely delicious! The sauce was rich and delicious and there was loads of cheesy goodness on top. All I had to do was pair it with salad greens and it was a hit. The young staff at the store showed excellent customer service, with one young lady carrying the tray out to my car. The store was super busy, always a good sign, and I'm glad I called ahead for pick up. What a great first experience for me at Mimmo Italian, I'll definitely be back. read more

Super good authentic Italian take out. Their gelato is amazing and their sandwiches are ginormous!!!

Great food and gelato. I just wish they had seating. My friend and I would have spent a lot more if we could have stayed to eat.

Mimmo is an outstanding Italian take out food place, with the most amazing bakery items, coffee, and gelato bar. They offer catering options and so much more. The owners and staff at Mimmo are also incredibly dedicated to supporting our community and did so with the Bartlett Robo Bears FIRST Lego League Robotics Teams. We are incredibly grateful for amazing community partners like Mimmo and we hope they stay in this community for a long time to come! read more

December 29th 2024...we order our first carry out from Mimmo ItLuan and soooo disappointed in the Lasgana way TOO SALTY, we feel it was the slice cheese instead of Ricotta Cheese, we cut the burnt side off. I am sure they meant well on there Lasgana! read more

Pizza is authentic and pasta is so good. If you want to eat $5 hot and ready pizzas and pasta from a can, this place is NOT for you. Restaurant is clean, ingredients are top notch and always fresh. read more

The food here is way too good for a little carry out place. For real, it's nearly as good as the meals cooked by my grandmother, who was born on a wagon a dozen miles south of Palermo. I'm not sure why they feel the need to put pesto on their chicken parm subs, but I forgive them. Just ask them to put it on the side. read more

I'd give them a top rating except that their doors were closed when I went there on Tuesday, 1/7. I've tasted some of their delicious foods and they are good, but I was disappointed that their hours of operation posted on the door are not what their hours of operation really are. Too bad, I was ready to buy some good tasting bread! read more

I am so happy they came to South Lyon. The food is out of this world!!! The staff are great and super friendly. We just had it a few nights ago and are getting ready to order again. Love, Love, love!!! read more

I was at my bro-in-laws and he ordered pizza, salad and an Italian sub. Nothing disappointed. It actually is the most tasty pizza I've likely ever had. The sub was ridiculously plentiful and the bread had great crunch with a soft warm center. The salad was salad, not the highlight, but a great compliment to everything else. recommend giving this a chance read more

I'm going to keep my review short. I lived on the East Coast for five years before moving home to Detroit. Mimmo could compete with any pizza shop in the tri-state area. read more

Ordered online effortlessly. Food was excellent! We tried the pizza, lasagna and meatballs. Pizza was the best I've had in years. Lasagna was very good with lots of sauce. Meatballs were good. Food was ready when we arrived. Counter people served with a smile and efficiency. read more

The food was really good. The subs, arancini, and gnocchi were fabulous. Typically we don't like Italian food away from home but this was great. read more

Did take out for the first time - a Margarito calzone & pepperoni pizza. The calzone was larger than expected. The dough was perfectly cooked, well seasoned and had the flavor of the bread / dough I've had at Italian bakeries. Delicious. The filling was made with the real deal Mozzarella, adequate fresh basil leaves. If there was sauce I didn't detect it & if ordered again, I'd request less Ricotta as that's my preference. The Pepperoni Pizza was deep dish, crunchy crust, sufficient sauce & the dough used tasted as stated above. We had enough left for a second meal and will be back to try other foods! read more

Extremely disappointed with the quality of food. Everything we got tasted processed and bland with no flavor. Extremely over priced for the quality you are given, you are better off going to Olive Garden (which I don't even like) if you want Americanized Italian food. Would not go back. read more

The food was awesome and the portions are big. The service was great and the staff was very friendly.

First time in and we are already planning our next visit. We ordered a small Detroit style square and they gifted us a large, many thanks! It was absolutely delicious! The toppings were plentiful and we loved the crust and sauce. We also ordered a slice of carrot cake and a chocolate chip cookie. We can't say enough about the freshness and flavor, both scrumptious. We're looking forward to trying the the other bakery sweets, plus the gelato, Italian dishes and sandwiches. We are thrilled a new place has opened up so close to our neighborhood! read more

Food, gelato and service are Great! Love this place and so glad they opened and are so close to where I live!

There's a HUGR disparity between portion and prices. I won't order from here again. I can enjoy a nice meal from an authentic Italian Restaurant, like Antonios, and have leftovers for another meal or two. At Mimmo's I end up still hungry. This place is a one and done for me. Never Again.... read more

Today we got food from Mimmos for the first time, we really wanted to like it. We have had their baked goods, which are amazing! And their gelato is ok. We got pizza and chicken, the pizza looked great, the crust was a great thickness and texture, even the toppings were good, but the sauce was not good at all, it just straight up tasted like oregano and that was the only flavor that came out unless you picked it apart and avoided the sauce. None of us could eat it. The chicken tenders, I think, were homemade. They had no flavor and were pretty dry, I don't think they seasoned the meat, and they were so crunchy my son couldn't eat them. The fried chicken was edible but salty, and the fries were steak fries, which you know are gonna be mushy by the time you get home. I also don't think they were seasoned. The bread sticks were good, but they forgot our sauce for them(pomedoro and ranch) so I dont know if they make the sauces, but their bbq sauce for the chicken tenders was definitely open pit. The coleslaw was very saucy with a spice I couldn't figure out. I have had their baked good a few times. The baked goods are amazing! If I was leaving a review just based on the baked goods, it would definitely be 5 stars! Whoever is the baker needs to open their own bakery and hire me to work there so I can eat their baked goods every day. It's probably the best croissant I've had in years, and their cookies and bread are so good! I think they should get a new pizza sauce recipe, emphasize the baked offerings, and open earlier to sell those and drop the fried chicken and tenders. I will definitely be back for the baked items, and because it's there, the gelato. But they didn't have chocolate gelato today or regular stratiatella, so I didn't get any. I know they change flavors daily, but they should always have both chocolate and vanilla. read more
