I recently set a reservation to dine with my family on Mother's Day. Arath was very attentive despite the holiday rush.

Besides the good service and nice staff, our experience on Mother's Day was just okay. Though advertised on OpenTable, the 3-course meal would be available from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m., so we had to order from the regular brunch menu. It also took about 45 minutes to get our food and it was just ok for the price. We will probably not visit again on a holiday weekend.

We had reservations for Mother's Day brunch. Checked in on time and saw over 100 people in waiting area also waiting. We were told the kitchen is backed up and have to wait at least one more hour. Totally unacceptable and mismanaged. We chose to leave and probably will not be coming back.

Even though it was very busy due to Mother's Day, and therefore the food was late, everything was delicious!

It was so very crowded thank goodness we had a reservation, but even so the food was good. The service was good. We enjoyed it.

Mimi's has a nice homey feel and a broad menu that can satisfy everyone. We had a group of 10 at 4:00 pm for an after matinee show late lunch/early dinner and had a section all to ourselves. Everyone found something they liked on the menu, including breakfast (served all day). Service was great, even though an off hour. Loved it!

Mimi's is...well.. Mimi's. Food is good not great. Menu is quite diverse ambiance is better than most. Best part of the meal was our server Carlos. Attentive but not annoying. Much like Marie Callender Mimi's fits a need for decent, relatively affordable dining. The Irvine location is a good one.

Great Sunday brunch ! Luv muffins on side comes w meal - you want hearty food come here- cute place ! Don't ever change decor even it's being around for while, but everywhere else modernized interior feels cold - this place is charming. I wan add, place really staff up since beginning year, my post would being different last year. Perhaps new management , it's now definitely ready to do biz in town- will be back.

Quiet, evening dinner. Food was great and service was excellent. It was a slow night but a great experience after a busy chaotic day!

Our group of 20+ met for breakfast/brunch at Mimi's, who provided us with a private room. The service was outstanding, our orders were taken and delivered promptly...with no errors. I complement the staff for their attentiveness and pleasant demeanor, and would highly recommend Mimi's if you are in need of a restaurant to host a large group. As for the food, they delivered what we expected, and everyone was please with their meals, whether they ordered breakfast or lunch.

Very rude staff. I wanted to stop here on my way to airport so I called in and ordered ahead so I save some time and even mentioned the same when I called in. When I went in to say I had ordered ahead and where can we sit, the staff was so rude and told us to sit in the event space area coz this side was for customers who actually sit in and order and not for to go. He even gossiped to other people and they were pointing and laughing at us.
Sorry for no tip but after the finger pointing and laughing my holiday spirit was ruined.

Dietary restrictions: They don’t have much vegetarian options or dietary considerations. Very rude when we asked to change the order
