| - Mimi's is always a good bet. Good, hearty meals that will satisfy most palates. This is the millionth time I've been, as it is a fave for family half-way meeting breakfasts.
The restaurant is always clean, and the staff friendly. I overlook the fake, half-assed "Bonjour" ( bon-jure lol) as I walk in the door.
The menu has much to offer. However, having recently adopted a plant-based, mostly vegan diet, I will tell you that your options are extremely limited, especially at breakfast. I had the Banana Brulee Oatmeal, which was plentiful and tasty. I will add that brulee means burnt cream. This was not that. There was no scorched/caramelized sugar, and there was a split banana on top with what might have been a grill mark? It was just oatmeal, and I added strawberries and brown sugar, foregoing the cream/milk. Very good oatmeal. I stole a few baby breakfast potatoes from my husband, and they were great...seasoned well and cooked thoroughly.
The kids had chicken and waffles, and classic Benedict. Both said that their meals were fantastic. They didn't talk much, which is a good sign.
Negatively, my water was not filled much, and I wasn't asked if I needed more hot water for my tea. I didn't grab the server either, so it's part my fault. My tea cup was filthy, with coffee drips all over it. I believe that it's not too much to ask for the server to be sure the service is clean before sending it out, especially having been a server myself. I would be embarrassed and appalled.
All in all, Mimi's is a nice place for a good meal, at a decent price.
