“My close friends and I have been meeting for lunch at Gus's every Thursday for over 10 years and have no intention of stopping. Our meals and service could not be better. Many of us go there at other times, also, for the same reasons. My personal idea of a good restaurant is how often you want to return. Scott and Lisa really know what they are doing!“

“I did a catering order for Christmas Eve. Lasagna and Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo, salad with homemade Italian dressing and Garlic Knots. It was the most delicious Italian meal any of us had ever had!!! There was 7 family members for dinner. THANK YOU LIDIA'S!!!! You made our night!!!! Most sincerely, Diane Weiser, Richmond, VA“

“very good food and wonderful service.“

“Amazing food and a great atmosphere with the most friendly staff.“

“Mimmo’s has become a weekly staple for a large group of us, and we can’t say enough good things about the place. What started as a small group lunch just before 2020 has grown significantly (especially over the last year) and it’s now common for 20+ of us to show up at once every Wednesday. Despite the size of our group, the service has never missed a beat.

The staff is always incredibly welcoming and accommodating. They happily let us move tables together so everyone can sit in one long row, and they never have any issues with separate checks for a large group. Over time they’ve even started remembering many of our regular drink orders and favorite menu items, which really shows how much they care about their customers.

The food is consistently excellent. The pizza and sandwiches are always a hit, but honestly you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Portions are fantastic and prices are very reasonable.

One story that really says a lot about this place: during the COVID restrictions when the group couldn’t dine inside, everyone still ordered food and gathered outside in the parking lot. The owner, Daniel, brought tables and chairs outside for everyone could still sit together and enjoy lunch. That’s the kind of hospitality you don’t see everywhere.

It’s a relaxed, family-owned restaurant with a genuinely friendly atmosphere. Our group even brings radio gadgets and tech to show each other sometimes (we’re a ham radio group), and the staff has always been completely cool with it.

If you’re looking for a great local spot with good food and genuinely kind people running it, Mimmo’s is hard to beat.“

“I believe I couldn't find a bad menu item here if I tried. they just nail it, whether pizza, pasta, even the apps. highly recommend“

“Im a new Door Dasher and deliver many many orders from here. It always reminds me of the "Real"Italian smells in Italy so I had to try it. Absolutely Amazing!!“

“Overall a good experience.
We got an XL pepperoni pizza and I requested 3/4 pepperoni, 1/4 cheese- which they honored. Family liked it!
Meatball Sub- My husband and I both liked it!
Lasagna, came with bread- no one liked the bread, but the lasagna was good.

I did not like the $1.99 “service fee”. I feel like that is a cash grab. Otherwise a pleasant experience.“

“Our family can not thank Ann and Frank enough for catering our father's funeral. Thank you, Ivy Hill's family“
