Mimi's has exceeded our expectations. Our Thanksgiving dinner was very very good. The onion soup was one the best ones I've had. The pumkin pie was outstanding. Real home made cooking with a french flavor. And their personel are always smiling. I will definetly return soon.
First of all we were seated at tables that had unsteady plastic chairs. Service was awful, our waiter brought food out to are party of six at different times where we could not start our meal together. Did not offer bread, never returned to refill our drinks and asked if we were going to the same residence after our meal so he could give us a whole pie to take??? Also when he brought our pie to us he informed us that the pie was frozen so he had to microwave it. Food was mediocre, sides were ok but the turkey was dry and smelled like it had been left out to spoil. Will never go to Mimi's for dinner ever again.
Thanks to reserving the table we were able to just wslk in and be seat it in seconds while many people still waited .
Great place!

It was a bummer not to have the combination of breads as when the restaurant first opened up were provided. Then the bread combination was provided if you spend a certain amount. Now it's charged for and the quality that we received was as if old! The menu has some original items! Sadly the Mexican music screamed in the background of what's supposed to be a French restaurant experience! Selective prejudice or provisions for ending what once was awesomeness!

I had not been here in a minute and I’m glad I came back. I was nostalgic for the Asian chicken salad, French onion soup, and carrot raisin bread. It was all very yummy! The service as always is top notch; Darlene was great! I will definitely be back!

Friendly, fast and still yummy as I remembered it. I had a craving for French onion soup and I immediately thought of Mimi's. Went to the one in Downey. Was seated immediately and ordered way more than I should eat but it was all delicious. Warm carrot raisin Madeleine with whipped butter. Hot, tender pot roast and rich chocolate cake. The host and my waitress was prompt, friendly and attentive. Darlene also told me the specials , promotions, and refilled my drinks when it was about to be empty. I really enjoyed the food and experienced today. Means a lot for a Monday with a 70 minute commute. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

I wanted to eat light today to I ordered the Cobb Salad. It was prepared just the way I like it with Bleu Cheese dressing. Darlene was great and the restaurant was super clean.

Darlene was the sweetest from the moment we arrived, she went above and beyond to get our food exactly to how we wanted and our kids loved her. Food was delicious and the service was outstanding. Thank you Darlene, looking forward to seeing you again in our next visit.
