Small no frills, customer service was pleasant although ordering was via scan code. The people however were still very pleasant

This is the first restaurant I saw in Bay that provides such nice packaging for the takeout orders. It doesn't only keep the dishes hot but also shows how the owners go an extra mile in respect and care for the customers. The food is great but that gesture is something that would really make me come back

We discovered a hidden gem in a strip mall! We sampled numerous dishes, starting with the California roll. Despite using imitation crab, their unique method of finely mashing it, combined with excellent sushi rice, made it exceptional.

The gyoza were a highlight—crispy on the outside and tender inside. Each order came with six pieces, and we enjoyed them so much we ordered another round.

We tried three different sizzling rice plates: pork belly, Korean short rib, and eel. All were outstanding and left us craving more. Beware, though—the sizzling plates are extremely hot.

We also enjoyed a noodle dish, though I can't recall its name, and the chicken udon noodle soup, which was quite satisfying with its perfectly textured noodles and savory broth—perfect comfort food.

Our only complaint was that one dish was forgotten, and we had to remind the staff. It must have been an oversight in the kitchen. Nevertheless, we waited patiently for the last dish to arrive before starting our meal.

Parking is abundant in this mall, so there's no need to worry about that.

I'm eager to return and try more sushi and sashimi. They looked incredibly fresh at other tables.

January 2025 update:
Yes, this is my new obsession place. I’ve been here three times in one month. This time I focused on sushi. The sashimi combination was full of large fish pieces, very fresh, on a bed of ice to keep them cool , and with both fresh and concentrated wasabi. Excellent! The Hamachi carpaccio was delicious. Tangy and with a little spice from sliced chilies. You will not see carpaccio this big elsewhere. But even though it’s big, it was very tender and delicious. And lastly, as a filler, California roll. They’re just good.

March 2025 update:
Doh! I found a weak point, in my opinion. I had the pork belly ramen for the first time. I want thrilled. The soup base was very bland and the noodles seemed more instant than authentic. I don’t know, I could be wrong but that was my thought.

The eel sizzling rice plate was as fantastic as ever, though. I think I’ll stick to those sizzlers and the sushi and sashimi next time.

May 2025 update:
Tried something new this time. It’s a hot pot. With beef, mushrooms, tofu, glass noodles, and veggies. I really think one order is good enough for two people. But if course my eyes are bigger than my stomach, as usual, and ordered California roll and hamachi nigiri. And then I was FULL!

The one thing they can improve is they to serve hot tea. I mean, it’s all Asian food here. So we asked for hot water instead. Guess what, no hot water.

We found MiMi’s on Yelp and since it was close to home and we were jonesing for Sushi, we decided to eat there! We were not disappointed, in fact we have been back 4 times in so many weeks! It is an enjoyable, no frills place with great food, nice people and fair pricing! We would encourage you to try MiMi’s the next time you think “Sushi!”

This is a Japanese and Korean fusion restaurant, It’s really nice for a casual dinner or for takeout. I love their sizzling beef udon also their chicken curry Katsu is very good. I don’t like their pork tonkotsu Ramen though so o couldn’t recommend that. The service is really fantastic they are such nice people and that along with the quality of the food always brings me back.

Stopped in there for a quick meal. Tried the Sizzling Beef Pepper Rice. Came out hot and fresh. Tasted great, was able to add soy sauce, teriyaki and hot chili powder at the table to dial everyone's specific tastes. Also order the Beef Ramen to go, which came out after we had finished the Beef Rice. Ramen was separated with noodles and broth packed separately, also came in a nice bag with a seal at the top and canvas handle that let the ramen travel safely!

I’ve heard about this place from a colleague and just had to try it.
My first time ordering- I had a sushi roll, edamame and miso soup.
It was overall an amazing dinner as take out and they really have put careful, considerate gesture to the style of take out.
Next time I’ll have to check out again with dine in experience!

I came here to treat my brother for lunch for fixing our mom’s door lock, and I had a craving for sushi. The sushi at Mimi’s Kitchen was very tasty and the chef laid out our entire order very decoratively on a cute black stone platter, I give them a “10” for artistry! The miso soup was tasty as well. The menu is only Prices were decent; I’ve eaten at places where the sushi rolls were much higher in price. Try out this place, it doesn’t disappoint. The outdoor mall has a very large CVS, you get off of Snell from Blossom Hill Road, and drive into the mall. The restaurant is not visible off the street, it’s next to a hair salon in an inside corner, but keep looking for the restaurant, and you’ll find it. I plan to come back to check out the other dishes that are served in the stone pots on another visit!

Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of space to wheel around in a wheelchair.

They have a pretty good variety of dishes and some pretty good stuff too. Even the prices aren’t that bad! I got the eel sizzle plate and it was hella flavorful. I also had some Gyoza with a really good, crispy texture. Overall really nice quiet place to get a good meal at.
