This is my first time going and I rarely leave reviews however this food was absolutely delicious. I have never had xiao long bao as good as this before it’s ridiculous. The broth was great and service was very helpful. Definitely coming back.

Basically like din tai Fung but without the wait!! The dumplings are soooo good!
There is absolutely NO service. Waited for half an hour, every staff is super busy. But half of the tables kept un-cleaned and nobody willing to talk to you.

This is an excellent spot for Chinese food which we will continue to return to. So far I've tried the garlic green beans, cucumber salad, sweet and sour chicken, chicken dumplings, pork and sticky rice dumpling, vermicelli cake chicken, chicken fried rice, and chocolate dumplings. I would recommend everything except I didn't love the sweet and sour chicken. Felt a little like chicken jerky in a few spots, but my husband didn't seem to mind. They provide an adorable kids plate with a piggie shaped bao, yakult, and some steamed broccoli. My kiddos really look forward to this. It's very quiet and small, but still kid friendly. The servers have been very friendly, but since it is small, sometimes you're waiting a bit for certain requests. It's an excellent dupe for DTF (and about half the price).

Great local spot. I didn’t seem to have any MSG reactions. I loved seeing the dumpling being made fresh. Food was not too salty and there’s a variety of dishes for everyone. I like being able to order from the QR code, although they had also a piece of paper for ordering that you can give to the waiter. Service was attentive and atmosphere was cute.

I really like their XIAO long bao, the meat is tender and lean.
Hidden Gem! This place is perfect for a dumpling or boa bun fix. Food was excellent, and service was great. Will definitely be coming back

I just found this place recently and I'm glad we went. I haven't tried all the dishes yet, but all the ones we tried are delicious. This place was just opened about 3 months ago. We will come back to try more dishes.
Foods are tasty 😋 Good dining environment 👍🏻👍🏻

Amazing Chinese bao restaurant in a modern atmosphere and excellent service! It's relatively new and located conveniently for those living in south Orange County. Try the unique truffle bao.

The portions, quality, and flavor are amazing each time I’ve been. I love the spicy wontons, it is not the type of spice level where it’s not enjoyable, but just the right amount. I also enjoy the fried rice for those who are looking for something outside of dumplings.
Delicious ribs, dumplings, soup
Pretty decor
Friendly staff

Fantastic dining experience at Mimi Garden! The service was great, and the food was amazing. The Pineapple Beef was a standout, with a unique presentation and a great portion. The Pan-fried Kurobuta Pork Dumplings with their perfect crispy lattice were also excellent, and we were happy to receive the Kurobuta Pork & Soup Xiao Long Bao and boba as part of a special offer. Highly recommend checking them out!
