I love it here. Been with them since they were on Jefferson. Highly recommend the jerk chicken birria tacos. Took my coworkers to the new location and they loved it.

Today, I did an early birthday celebration with 15 of my girls. When I say this is the best restaurant EVERRRRRR. The staff was sooo accommodating and professional. The young lady who waited on us on 11/08 was very patient with us. We had some confusion but she handled it. The drinks, the food were soooo good. This place gets 10 stars. Thank you so much for being a part of my celebration.

Food was fantastic, be advised menu has changed if it’s been awhile since you’ve gone some of my favs were gone but overall menu is still great! Making new favorites. Drinks are always great but slow to get, if it’s crowded it will be really loud and it feels like you’re screaming to
Your party to hear, if it’s chill and less crowded you can hear the music and the selection is perfection a good mix for everyone!

This place is a solid 4, 4.5. The food, service and drinks were really food. The bathrooms are clean, they have 2 which is good for a restaurant of this size. The server knew the menu and spoke only on items he had and I really appreciate the honesty. The bill for 2 was 130, that was 2 drinks, 2 meals and an appetizer, that's really good! Krack Korn is really good, the deviled eggs were on the sweet side, hot honey catfish was very good and crispy and the jambalaya, while it said a little spicy was very spicy but full of flavor. I earned $10 in rewards from my first so I'll be back soon, gotta my way thru the menu!

This is me and my hubby’s 2nd time at MiMi’s the first time was AMAZING…this time was unfortunately mid at best, idk if it was a different chef but you definitely notice the difference in quality of food durning the night Vs the day. Mac n cheese balls were served cold, pasta was missing ingredients which I wasn’t informed about until I brought it up. There were literally 2 waiters serving food, hosting and making drinks they were great but I see why so many errors occurred. I was served dry thin chicken upon request to fix error from Jambalaya pasta. It was just an unpleasant experience this time around with no proper explanation or accommodations. With this small menu we expected for the quality to be consistent and top tear but we were wrong. Smh MIMi I’m disappointed girl!!!
