The food is great, the service is really bad, especially if you have little kids. I don't know why I go back to this one, even though it's right up the street from us. Maybe it's the hope that some day we'll get a waitress that gives a darn about you and will stop leading you to believe that you'll actually get decent service.
They greet you promptly, but after yesterday's service where the plates were pretty much thrown at me, never again. Maybe they think I'll be a poor tipper because instead of ordering two kids meals, we order one? Maybe it's because I'm more occupied with making sure my kids or ok rather than being super smiley to the waitresses there? Maybe I just need to be 70 years old and order a cup of coffeee and a slice of whole wheat toast and give them a $10 tip? There are other Mimi's in the area, but seriously, they're only a slight notch up from IHOP to have to deal with their attitudes.
We'll see what Mimi's corporate will do for me after they respond to the email I sent to them, too.
