What the F happened to this place? The food is completely different, lacks flavor and care. Mimis managed to move away from what made them good. The new space lacks charm and warmth like the original.
ALSO watched food fall out of the fridge, onto the floor; they proceeded to scoop it BACK up, OFF the floor into the container, and put it back in the fridge for sale.
Zero care and left completely astonished. I’ll never return, even though I’ve been going for a decade.
Abysmal…

Order system is in disarray and noone answers the phone. Things are haphazardly put into bags and it doesn't matter what the item is. Had the delivery arrive spilled and breaking out of the bag. Couldn't get a person to talk to. Terrible experience, process and service. In addition, took longer than usual and so then after a long day, waited longer and then still had to find nourishment.
I hung up with GrubHub after I contacted them because I couldn't get anyone on the phone direct at the restaurant. Maybe 15 minutes later, I got a call from someone asking if I speak Spanish. I understand Spanish to some degree but don't SPEAK fluently, SO I said NO.
I call back maybe 5 mins after that and someone asks WHAT DO I WANT??? (And that they are closed!!!).
A LOT of hassle for a meal. Won't be ordering again (and have I been ordering for the past TEN years).

Food is getting worse and worse. They used to be so tasty, now it's salty and nasty, especially the chicken shawarma pita.

This place has great food. It has really started issues since they’ve moved—the service has dropped terribly…it’s a bit ridiculous. Examples from recent visits: 1. I order a chicken pita. They bring it out on a taco tray holder. Only the holder on an outdoor table. I ask for a plate and cutlery (it’s quite large) to eat it and they look at me like I asked for the moon. They then bring me a tiny teacup plate to eat from. The sandwich is large and dripping all over the table. 2. I buy a piece of their cake to go. They ask if they can give it to me straight. No napkin, holder, or anything… like straight in my hand. They say they have nothing to put it in… I point to a small to go box and ask if I can get it in that. I do, but it’s so weird. 3. I ask to use their restroom (it’s a sit down restaurant) and they ask me to go across the street. It feels really weird to have a full, sit down restaurant without a bathroom. 4. I pop in at 9:15 PM (they close at 10PM) and try to get something to go. They tell me they’re closed even though everything says 10PM. I ask if they’re closing early and they say they’ve always closed at 9PM (that just isn’t the case).
The service is so lacking… and the minimum tip is set very high… which makes it kinda comedic. The food is great but the service is so terrible that I just can’t go anymore.

Food is exceptional. Their zataar pita was so good, I had to buy some for home. Also love their fresh hummus. Their braided beets are also delicious. Staff is nice but had to be reminded about our missing pita from the platter. Wish they had more seating. Their outdoor seating at their old location looked better than the new one.

I came here last week during the weekend for having dinner out of curiosity to try some new cuisine and was very clueless. Usually places I go to just serve and dont explain portions and taste aspect. But this young girl that works there did such a great job at explaining to me what hummus taste like and what comes with salmon set that would fit my taste. Really excellent service! Will definitely come again for that fluffy peta bread and salmon set! So yummy.
We went to Mimi’s Hummus before a concert at King’s theater and it was really great. Mushroom hummus, side orders of carrots and beets were incredible! Had a delicious mocktail. Enjoyed the outdoor dining.

I visited the restaurant alone on a hot 90-degree day and chose a table in the shaded patio area. The table, which could be configured for either four or two people, was part of a flexible outdoor seating arrangement. Despite the restaurant not accepting reservations, the server informed me that I couldn’t use the table for four. I kindly requested to stay if the table was split, but my request was denied.

Not happy with $9.00 for the smallest salad. I like their food but this is beyond a rip off.

Price for pita jumped up a lot in a short time. I learned from this to ask next time. I am more upset that the counterperson today could not wait until I moved out of the way to grab a menu. She basically pushed me out of the way without a word of apology. She was abrupt and unfriendly during the transaction and then this way way worse. Made me feel like an object in the way that was not even human, and it caused physical discomfort when she touched me! This person should be spoken to.

One of my favorite places in the area. I hear people complain about the prices, but I think it’s totally worth it for the quality, consistency, ambiance, and service.
Everything I’ve had here is great. Also always get a side of hot sauce.
