| - **Gee, it won't let me give a 0! DO NOT EAT AT THIS RESTAURANT!**
I made the mistake of having dinner here last night and I can only ask... "What happened to the "old" Mimi's that served palatable food?"
I had out of town visitors last night and made a really BAD choice on Mimi's! The three of us all ordered different dishes and ALL were horrid! The one common factor was bad food! The mashed potatoes were cold, flavorless and extremely dense. After complaining to our server and the hostess we were finally able to speak to the manager... GUESS WHAT? The "old" menu of yummy dinners has been converted into a "commissary" menu - frozen meals reheated.
The specifics: 1 member of my party had the turkey dinner - he said the meat tasted "funny" like it had not been stored properly, I was unwilling to taste it. I had the chicken picata which was NOTHING you'd associate with picata! Instead of the rich, buttery, lemon/wine based sauce, theirs was GREEN, it had been reheated to the extent that the sauce had separated and had a granulated appearance, the chicken had no flavor and was difficult to cut with a steak knife. The other member in our party had the Chicken Cordon Bleu... another menu mystery served with the yellowish glob of "mashed potatoes".
Although we called our server over to tell her the "potatoes" were cold, no effort was made to replace them! The server didn't even give the slightest hint of concern over our dissatisfaction!
Yes, they did deduct some of the charges it didn't even come close to repairing the damage done to our dinner "experience". All 3 of us suffered varying degrees of stomach distress well into the evening.
Sorry folks, the Mimi's Cafe of a few years ago is a distant memory - do not waste your money here!
By the way, I've eaten C-Rations and MRE's that had more flavor than Mimi's "food"!
