Mimi's Table

I usually am not vicious with my reviews. People and places can have bad nights, and I usually don't review if such was the case. But I feel like they just stole $100 from me with tonight's horrible service and "food". Drinks: unsweetened ice tea that was barely colored and had zero flavor. See picture. No aroma, no flavor. Tan water. $3 wasted. At least the wife's sangria was good. Was thinking if ordering some Pinot grigio but glad I didn't Apps: special was gazpacho. I love making gazpacho at home. The tiny fixed pieces of fresh vegetables and herbs, served in a well seasoned and chilled tomato puree/broth that should be refreshing and delightful. NOT what I was served (see picture). The huge three inch chunks of white were cucumber. Bitter icebergs of cukes. I had hoped that the clear liquid on top of the red, thin liquid was tomato consume, which can be clear and delicious. THIS was not consume. It was an oil slick. A little finishing oil can be delightful, but a quarter inch of grease is not palatable. The red, tomato-y liquid underneath had none of the seasoning, flavor, or characteristics of gazpacho. I had small tastes and left the entire cup alone. Inedible. When the very young waiter came to clear the plates, not one word was asked about how we liked it, not did he even notice that nothing was eaten. Money wasted. My wife had the leek soup. All she could taste was pepper and the uncooked roux. Again, no notice that nothing was eaten... More money wasted. Entrees: I had the $33 mushroom and spinach lasagna. Supposedly home made noodles, layered with many types of mushrooms and lots of spinach. See the picture. Not even one ounce of mushrooms and what appeared to be nothing special. A few leaves of spinach. It looked, ate, and tasted flat. No seasoning other than the bitter oregano they the in the Sysco marinara sauce. Mozzarella? A few barely melted pieces of pre-shredded cheese. Was I offered any fresh grated Parmesan? Don't make me laugh. The pile of dry arugula on the side wasn't dressed and added the only flavor to the dish. More money wasted. My wife had the seafood grill. Most of the dish was Sysco canned corn (obviously not fresh) and barely seasoned. The seafood (shrimp and scallops) were amazingly only seared on one side, and barely colored at that. We weren't with sure that the seafood was cooked all the way through. Very disappointed again. Even when asked how everything was and saying not great, the waiter said ok and left. No one seemed to care at all about service, quality, satisfaction. No adults to be seen in the front and I can only assume more children in the back "cooking" an insulting menu. Needless to say, we did not have dessert, nor drinks after dinner. We left as soon as we could. Total time in the place: 38 minutes. Says something doesn't it. We had one night in Tallahassee and thought this place could be a neighborhood gem based on reviews. It was not. From our shoes sticking to the floor as we came in, to the aluminum foil on the top of the windows, we should have turned around and found something else .. anything else. Horrible experience. Is everything in our state's capital this bad? We stopped for public subs after dinner for something edible and dependably good.

Amazing experience. Best rare steak I have ever had. It was point on with the flavor and the way it was cooked. As someone that has a tremendous amount of experience in the hospitality industry, I would say this is a restaurant has great ambiance, great service, and amazing food. I highly recommend for a nice date night!!

Great little restaurant. Very good food! Unique menu and fantastic wine selection. Althea service was top notch. We drank wine, we ate and we enjoyed the night.

I must admit, I have contemplated going to Mimi's many times over the last year or so to celebrate special occasions! Well I finally went this past weekend, and my main disappointment was that I have waited so long to have the amazing dining experience that Mimi's Table provides. From the moment I called to make my reservation, Ethan, the GM, was absolutely wonderful! He was excited about my birthday, and was very welcoming and professional. He followed up personally to confirm my reservation and then personally and enthusiastically took care of me and my guests. One of the main reasons I chose Mimi's is the menu. It is both French and Italian inspired dishes, which are my two favorites, they use the freshest locally sourced seafood (I love, love, love seafood, and used to be pescatarian). They also have several vegetarian options, and half of my guests are vegetarian. Needless to say, on a scale of 1 to 10, the customer service was on a 1,000! The food itself was perfection. The kitchen prepared a special dish for our appetizer, and the braised short ribs will melt in your mouth! All of my guests were very pleased with their selections. The atmosphere was lovely and intimate, simple yet elegant, in a less is more kind of way! The vibe was wonderful and the wine list is too! Mimi's will not just be a "special occasion" spot, it has become a regular on our lists of top favorites in town! Thank you again to Ethan and the whole staff at Mimi's for making my birthday an even more special occasion!

We will be back! Delicious, light, flavorful food. Wonderful, quaint, intimate atmosphere. The service was great, and the company was even better. The apple tart could've been cooked longer, but we did a free mini salad that was spectacular. We can't wait to bring friends and family here and try other courses.

Trout Almondine! That was my entree at Mimi's Table, and my goodness, was it delicious! I wanted to try a new restaurant & I'm so glad I chose Mimi's. Mimi's is both bright & cozy. The ambiance reminds me of a bistro in Paris or Florence. The atmosphere invites conversation amongst friends or quiet dinner for writing (which is what I did). The waitstaff are attentive and engaging. The wine selection was a great choice. The food presentation is Bon Appetite worthy. Did I mention the trout with capers and almonds, buttery mashed potatoes, & fresh green beans were scrumptious? I kept hearing fellow diners make similar exclamations about their dinners. The portions were just right. I didn't order an appetizer because I wanted room for dessert. I ordered the dessert to take home. The owner came out to greet us personally. Chef's kiss! Yes, my feet will under Mimi's Table regularly.

Overall this was a great birthday meal and I want to go back to try more of their food. Most of their dishes seemed to have their own spin on them, which made them more interesting, and everything was very well executed. I've never had anything with quite the flavor profile as the seafood grill and want it again, maybe with a little rice or pasta, but the scallops were under. Salmon was perfectly seasoned and cooked, although something in the sauce on the orzo had an odd chemically flavor. Lasagna was excellent. Bread evoo/balsamic appetizer was great but needed more bread. Our server seemed to disappear a couple of times but there was apparently some sort of issue in the kitchen. The space is pretty small although they seem to be using it efficiently. That said, this is easily in my top 10 Tallahassee restaurants.

We had a good time yesterday at Mimis’s table. It is nice local restaurant with warm and welcoming atmosphere. I had their filet mignon steak medium cooked and my wife chose their seafood grill. Both food were delicious and tasty but it wasn’t enough for me as far as portion. I wish they would double the size of the steak.

The Saturday post Valentine's Day, we had a reservation at Mimi's Table to have a belated Valentine's Day celebration. Ethan was our server, and he was personable and polite. We started off by sharing a bottle of rosé, the bottle being so pretty I took a photo of it. We opted to begin with small appetizers of bread and olives. Both were fresh, and the oil accompanying them, only augmented their flavors. Upon eating these, we were presented with an amuse bouche that wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either. I think it'd have benefited from being warmed up. For our main dishes, we had the lasagna and the short ribs. I was surprised I chose lasagna as I kept looking at seafood that night, but it was a long day and I wanted something comforting. The lasagna was just that, along with hearty and tasty. I even wound up with leftovers. The short ribs weren't my dish, but they were inhaled. I was told that the dish, the food overall, was better than expected. This is high praise, considering my companion is typically quite picky, and when I chose this restaurant for our dinner, he wasn't too enthusiastic. He also let me know he had not been there in years because nothing stood out to him. I think it's safe to say after our visit, we will most definitely be back. I think it's just a matter of having the right occasion. Mimi's Table isn't cheap. I think dinner was close to $200 for two people, and well, unless you're rich, that is not an everyday meal.

The good: food The bad: (1) service (our server was fine, but it took the kitchen almost an hour to provide the main course. (2) loud to the point of painful! (Our first visit was shortly after Mimi's Table opened. At the time we raved about the food but suggested to the manager that sound mitigation would considerably improve the ambience. He agreed and told us that the restaurant was taking steps to resolve. Nothing has happened since. Literally, it's almost impossible to carry on a conversation. The ugly: On a $200 bill, it was hard to stomach the $1 charge for extra butter to go with the $4 bread. Don't get me wrong, the food was quite good. I particularly enjoy the braised beef tips. (For the seafood combination, the shrimp were somewhat over cooked and the sea scallops somewhat under cooked.) But for an upscale restaurant to charge a buck for butter, on top of $4 for the bread? Yes, on a $200 bill we could have paid the $1, but really!

This is a high class restaurant in Tallahassee near the hospital. The restaurant has about 16 tables and bar area. Not much of capacity. The parking is at the back. After order of the food, the complimentary chef special with Mozzarella Cake was delivered to the table. The cake has good red sauce. I also got a glass of sparkling Rose Sangria with hibiscus and ginger. The drink is good. Ice is a bit too much. My main dish is the Australian Lamb Shank. It braise with red wine and Moroccan spices. It was deboned and easy to eat. The sides are couscous and grilled Brussels sprouts. The main is delicious. Overall experience is about 4.5 stars. Service is excellent. Food not required too much of wait. Portion of food is good.

I really do not like writing negative reviews but this was not a pleasant experience. We visited on a Saturday evening on our way home from traveling and didn't know what to expect, but the reviews sounded promising. When we arrived we felt a little under dressed but not terribly. The hostess told us the only table available was outside so we said that would be okay, however she didn't give us an option to wait. When we walked out we saw a small table available, and throughout the night we noticed several empty tables inside. We had our 5 year old so thought maybe they just didn't want to put us in a small table, or maybe this restaurant doesn't welcome children. (No child menu) The longer we sat the more uncomfortable we felt. No one else was seated outside on the small patio during the whole evening and many tables came and went inside. It was 95 degrees out and we were very hot and were initially served warm water. We did not receive our food for over an hour. We ended up staying two hours (which is not a problem to wait for good quality food) but other patrons that arrived after us were being served before us. We ordered the special gazpacho, a Caesar salad, focaccia bread(we had to ask for this twice,) filet mignon and the braised short rib. The food was okay, the gazpacho had a great flavor but the filet mignon wasn't as tender as I'd expect. The braised short rib was a little dry in places but did have good flavor. Overall, I'm disappointed to say our experience will not allow us to return or recommend this place to anyone. I'm not sure if we were brushed off because of our attire or because we had a child but we've had much better quality meals and finer dining in less pretentious settings.

One word AMAZING, if you are ever in our state capital Tallahassee, come to this place , the food is amazing and the place is a little cozy spot , the chef will Come to your table and greed you , it is also very reasonable priced for the high end quality dishes, will be coming back !, the service is also on point , this kids are on the game !

Once I found the place it was very inviting. Hostess was pleasant. Since we didn't have a reservation she gave us the option of outside or at the bar. Given it was too chilly outside for my dinner mate we chose the bar. Shortly after being seated at bar the hostess informed us that there was a no show and we could have a table if we preferred. We took it! I really appreciated her thoughtfulness on this matter. My coworker ordered a pasta salmon dish that looked amazing. He planned on saving some for lunch the next day but couldn't stop himself from eating it all. I was surprised that he wasn't served any bread with this pasta dish. I had the calamari and potato soup. Calamari was beautiful! The tempura batter was heavenly. The soup was so salty that I could not finish it.

(* This is not a 5-star meaning "the most exquisite and memorable place ever," but for Tallahassee this is a really great place..so I will give 5 instead of 4. Probably my favorite in town along with Sage.) It has a simple menu with enough variety (mostly Italian with some fish, vegetarian, and meat options), and a pretty good price point for what you get (for Tallahassee). When I eat out in Tallahassee in this price range ($25+ main, $10-$15+ appetizer), I often get only halfway satisfied. But we liked everything we ordered here today, and we'll be back for sure. Our server was very attentive and calm. Sage has more "chefy" and French tone with southern feel. This one is mostly simple Italian, but well executed. Not a fancy space, but the flowers on the table make a nice touch. See my photos for food descriptions. * I wish they had a better espresso, though. It looked like they had a Nespresso machine, which I don't like, so I skipped it.

Thoroughly enjoyed my second trip to Mimi's Table to celebrate my birthday a few days early and Valentine's Day as well. I enjoyed the flounder with a side of scallops. My husband had their braised short rib. We ended the meal by sharing a warm brownie topped with vanilla ice cream. Our server, Derrick, was so attentive by keeping our beverages filled and making sure our meal and experience were excellent.

Had dinner here with my son when I took him back to school. Wow. The food was amazing. Get the Focaccia. It was delish and unusual.

Tried this place for the first time for my MIL's birthday dinner and we had a delightful time. Maddy took care of our party of 9 and didn't miss a beat. This place isn't toddler friendly so keep that in mind when making dinner plans. Thankfully I saw the menu ahead of time and made sure my 2-year old ate before he went. But pack juice or milk if that's your LO's thing because they don't carry either. Each course was delightful. The complimentary cucumber salad, the fried to perfection calamari, the authentic Caesar salad with the lemony zing and the Greek Moussaka was delicious. The only thing I didn't care for was the lobster bisque. The ambiance is so beautiful and intimate. I wouldn't hesitate to return for a date night or girls night out.

We ordered: fritto misto, spinach and arugula salad for appetizers and seafood grill, flounder, short ribs and rack of lamb as mains. The fritto misto was very delicious: fresh and the right amount of batter. The portions were much smaller than expected: my seafood grill at $33 comprised of three large delicious scallops and three medium shrimp on a bed of grilled corn and cherry tomatoes. My hubby gives his dish a 2/5 because he said his fish portion was extremely small, too salty, the seasoning was overpowering and was in two pieces- like frozen fish from a packet. My son's short rib was tasty but very small compared to recent photos submitted by other Yelpers. The medium lamb chops came medium rare. Food taste 4/5; quantity 2/5. Desserts: key lime pie and tiramisu. Key pie was on point 4/5 while the tiramisu lacked the requisite rum2/5.didn't like the cherries in the tiramisu, because the cherries' tartness detracted from the smooth taste of the tiramisu. Drinks ordered: craft beer and Rose wine. Service: 3/5. Server never came to ask how our food was after entrees were served. He came and asked about our dessert. I wouldn't say servers were warm and friendly, at least not at our table.

We've enjoyed several very good business dinners at Mimi's. The food and service are excellent, as is their small but well-curated wine list.

Our dining experience was outstanding in every aspect--meal, wine, and service alike! Maddie, our server, was exceptionally knowledgeable. She had an impressive grasp of the wine list, menu details, and the culinary techniques behind each dish. Her expertise truly enhanced our evening. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

I love this restaurant! I took my wife here for her 30th birthday and it was an amazing experience. It really gives you a fine dining experience unlike any other in town. For our appetizer, we had the Frito Misto, which had a combination of calamari, peppers, and artichoke hearts. They were deep fried and served with marina sauce. The flavor could've been a little more strong but it was still good. They also brought us a cheese combouche (sp), compliments of the chef, which was good as well. For my entree, I had the grilled pork chop with collard green and mashed potatoes. The pork chop was sensational! I loved the flavor of it and was so juicy. The texture was good too; I like a little char on mines. The collard greens were sweet, which was a little different for me. I though the mushroom sauce from the pork chop was a good compliment for the mashed potatoes. For desert, we shared a slice of key lime pie. It was very good. I had the LaLa Land IPA from Proof Brewing it was a good complement to the meal. Also the ambiance was great. I would recommend this for anyone looking for a fine dining experience in Tallahassee!

Based on all of the positive reviews, I was excited to try this place out. Unfortunately, either all of the positive reviews on here are fake or diners in Tallahassee have no idea what good food tastes like! Or what fine dining is all about. Presentation was good for the most part, but taste and quality was substandard and the level of customer service one would expect for the amount being charged per plate is non-existent. I have better service from national chains at a quarter of the price. Staff was welcoming and the interior is nice, but the food is just meh and you get the feeling that management just doesn't care if you enjoy your meal or not. We ordered the bread and fritto misto appetizers. The bread was good, the fritto misto tasted old and overcooked. Like it had been refried or something. Tiny pieces of calamari, some tough and chewy and others that were dry and rock hard. artichoke hearts were obviously canned and sauce was NOT spicy at all. I had the pork chop, which "looked" awesome. Sides were good, mashed potatoes and green beans. BBQ sauce was on point, and first bite tasted great, but it was stone cold. Server took it back to toss it back on the grill, but left the sides and just took the pork chop. 10 mins later, after I was done with sides, pork chop came back and was the temp it should have been, meaning nice and warm! Unfortunately I only had a couple of good bites as the rest of the chop was all fat! I kid you not, you can actually see that the middle of the chop is just fat! Chef conveniently cover the fat with the sauce so it wouldn't be obvious at first glance. Well server came to clear table and noticing most of the chop in pieces in my plate, apologized for this, but that was it. No supervisor ever came over to check in, no offer to fire up a new chop or comp anything or even "here's a dessert on the house" for the fact that you ate alone and are leaving hungry. This place is Smoke and Mirrors! A mediocre restaurant that wants you to believe it's a highly rated fine dining one so it can overcharge for it's food. Will definitely not be returning and do not recommend anyone waste their time or money here. There are much better places out there, hell Carrabba's is 1/3 the price and much better quality and service if something goes wrong! No, seriously...it really is!

I was in town for business and Mimi's table has been a bucket place location for me since it opened. I enjoyed the whole menu from a refreshing sangria, to flavor packed artichokes, a buttery salmon and even a sweet key lime pie to end. I can confidently recommend this upscale cozy joint to anyone who finds themselves in this corner of the world with a belly to fill. Thank you for the hospitality Mimi's table - hope to see you all again soon!

Delicious and authentic Italian food. Everything was delicious. Service was great. Highly recommend. So quaint.

Always get what you expect, delicious fresh food... organic and prepared perfectly. I try to eat here every time I visit, wish they were in my home town! It is a beautiful small, restaurant you can feel very comfortable alone or with friends. Wait staff is very nice and accommodating. What gem for Tallahassee!

Amazing!!!! Beautiful restaurant. The staff was so nice and friendly. The food was chefs kiss my mother in law and I went tonight for dinner. We had the flash fried calamari, the entrées was filet mignon and the flounder and we topped it off with crème brûlée and the strawberry infused cheesecake. A food lover's dream! We will definitely be back!!!

While back in my hometown area due to Hurricane Ida, I ended up having to celebrate my birthday there as things in NOLA weren't quite back to normal. So, I endlessly searched Yelp for restaurants in Tallahassee they would be open on my birthday (a Sunday) for dinner. From looking at positive reviews, I chose to go to Mimi's. The reservation process was easy, and the waitstaff were nice. But the food was disgustingly tasteless. It was not only my entree but my parents' as well. None of us were pleased with our meal. The only raving point was the bread. I Highly do NOT recommend!

Always great! Atmosphere and service was good. The chef came around to say HI and check in which we always like. The duck was awesome and unique in sauce and the vegetable medley. The spaghetti bolognese was good but ordinary. Only beer & wine but great wine selection. Our table neighbors raved about the tiramisu

I've previously reviewed Mimi's table and it's a solid 5-star dining experience. This update is for their monthly wine dinners. Each month Mimi's offers wine dinners. These take place on Monday nights as the restaurant is normally closed on Mondays. They start at 6:00pm, are 4 course dinners complete with wine pairings and cost $80 per person (as of 3/9/2020). And they are fantastic and worth the price. We have been to 3 of them, and this review is for the "Tuscany and Northern Italian" dinner on March 9, 2020. It would take too long to post the menu, so please see the photo of the menu that accompanies this review. The first course might seem like a simple charcuterie plate, but the focaccia and the tomato jam put it over the top. The second course was tasty, except I thought the shrimp were a bit over poached. The third course, however, was a hinge run. It was a veal meatloaf, served sliced. It was amazing, as was the creamed spinach on the side. The point cake was also tasty, especially as it was baked in muffin tins so everyone got the crispier edges. Each course was accompanied by wine, and we loved two of them and the other two were just ok. Normally, the wines have all been amazing, but people like different things. If you do like a wine, you can order bottles at the dinner (at a great price) and pick them up on the up omg Friday. And note: the wine pours are quite generous, sometimes with a top off or two, so I'd strongly suggest using Uber or Lyft (like we do). The menu is usually so good and the dinners so much fun, with both the chef and wine distributor explaining everything and then circulating around the room, that we always book a reservation for the next dinner before we leave.

Really impressive overall. An intimate space that feels romantic yet comfortable. My partner and I couldn't spend our anniversary night out so we randomly chose tonight after a long work day and decided on Mimi's table finally! In the future I would get a reservation but we lucked out and only had to wait a bit at the bar even though I think it upset the wait staff... so again, might want to have a reservation... the food WAS DELICIOUS! We had the Crispy Artichokes and the Infused Olive oil with Rosemary focaccia for starters, plenty of wine and beer (great selections), the salmon dish with added scallops and the braised short ribs, and ended with espressos and tiramisu. I think the staff warmed up to us without a reservation and the service and food was great. Not a daily occurrence for us but definitely recommend for a great dinner experience.

I can't say enough about Mimi's Table. Hands down, my current favorite restaurant in Tallahassee. I wanted to update as we have done a few of their Food & Wine pairing dinners and I think they require some notice (but not too much as reservations are tough to get). The value of these special events is unreal. Five course meal, paired with five wines makes for a fun evening, but the icing on the cake, if you will, is the chef and wine rep's verbal description of each dish to all those attending. It brings a lot to the experience. Price is very reasonable for all you get here, and I love the option to order bottles of the wine they present - being able to share them with others as we entertain at home has been enjoyable.

Started the meal with a bottle of wine and the olive oil and calamari entree. For the meal my husband ordered the meat lasagna and I had the short ribs. Everything we had was absolutely delicious. The service was great and everything was clean and served hot. Where it fell a bit short for me was it being boxed to go. When we got home the short ribs were not boxed with the sauce that was served with it and the foccacia was not accompanied by the olive oil dipping sauce we had not finished. I am not sure why, when boxed to go, they did not have their accompanied slides but that was disappointing.

@mimistabletally was another hit! The menu gets better and better, today there was a new addition Vegan Veggie Roast Pur waiter was perfection, the food came out in timely manner and the staff was very pleasant as always.

Great food and wine/drink selection. We had a variety of appetizers/ cheese board, and calamari. For dinner we had the seafood option, braised short ribs and lasagna. Everything was delicious. The servers was super friendly. Her family was from Italy and she gave us recommendations of places to visit and eat on our upcoming trip

Delicious. Very flavorful. Had the house lamb special and it was tender and absolutely delicious. Small dining room but plenty of space. My only warning is that outdoor seating is by a busy road and can be loud

We visited this establishment for the third time! WOW , my meal was FABULOUS!! The waiter was superb and the ambiance serene.and calming. The temperature was ridiculous! The fifth star is sweating like I did while enjoying a fantastic meal. Close to perfect but no cigar!

0/10. Born & raised in tally and try my best to support local businesses. However, can't justify supporting this one. Extremely disappointed.

Unexpectedly delicious, gourmet food with knowledgeable server and good wine. It's an unobtrusive restaurant in a building with other businesses but definitely worth the visit. Second favorite restaurant in Tally after Backwoods Bistro.

My husband and I love Mimis, and right now (covid-19) we have a real soft spot for local businesses. We went on a fancy date night to Mimis about a week ago and were thoroughly impressed. At this time, I'm pretty sure they are doing dine in by appointment only. (Please hold your judgement btw, we made this decision legally and safely) There were a few other couples at the restaurant, but they were spaced out extremely well, with some sitting outside. We were the only patrons inside the restaurant! The servers were kind and personable despite the masks they wore. Everything was clean, with fresh table cloths being supplied per patron. The food was absolutely incredible as usual, my husband had the short ribs and I had the fillet mignon, and we shared a bottle of rose and a cheese plate appetizer. For dessert we tried an apple tart and creme brulee, both equally delicious! Overall, I was really impressed by the cleanliness and safety of this restaurant. I was happy to support a local business, I care about the livelihood of wage workers like waiters etc, and we had a great time out of the house while maintaining safety precautions. This dinner did wonders for my mental health, we needed a date night badly! Thanks Mimis!

This place is a very nice, hidden gem! To start off, the soup we had was the potato soup, which was rich and creamy. The frito misto is a must have! It is crispy on the outside, with a perfect texture. Definitely a great place, my dad and I are coming back soon!!

Went here to for a "treat yourself" dinner. The staff was very friendly and the food was fantastic! Perfect for a celebratory occasion or just a really nice meal.

Last night we came here with a reservation at 8:30pm, after our middle son's graduation from FSU. It was emotional enough because COVID and all the craziness going around, and to end our special day here was exactly how imagined. Services was top of the notch (she even help us choosing where to have breakfast today) and food was supreme! My dover sole was exquisite! Don't be fooled by the simple and modest entrance...

To be fair, we are vegetarians so I can't speak to the quality of the meat dishes, but the food we ordered was cafeteria quality. We started off with a $14 "cheeseboard" that came on a plate. There was very little attention paid to plating: maybe 1.5 oz of cheese served on a purple cabbage leaf, store bought jam, store bought lavash crackers, and candied walnuts. I had assumed the jam would have been a freshly made compote given the location and time of year, I certainly expected a little more cheese, and this hardly resembled other cheese boards I've been served in other restaurants. We also ordered the fried artichoke. This tasted as if the artichoke were frozen, rather than fresh. And they also tasted a bit fishy, which is perhaps due to them being fried in the same oil as seafood. Lastly, we had two salads. The salads were clearly bagged lettuce with, what tasted like, stale, low-quality croutons. Again, given the restaurants website and overall vibe, I would have expected fresh ingredients. We originally intended to order dessert, but decided against it based on the low-quality of the food. In addition to the lackluster food, the plates were chipped and our glasses were dirty. Three bright spots: 1. The amuse bouche of watermelon, strawberry, red onion, feta, and basil was delicious 2. The wine selection is quite nice. 3. Our server was perfect. She didn't hover and let us have some time between our dishes. Overall, if you are looking for a truly upscale dining experience (and it might be fair to assume you'd have one based on the menu prices and description of the chef), this may not meet your expectations. And, it will likely feel overpriced based on quality.

Mimi's Table is the finest dining experience you will discover in Tallahassee! The atmosphere is upscale with white linen tablecloths, the perfect background music and the service is exceptional. The pasta is handmade in house and the seafood is flown in daily. Attention to detail by Chef William is absolutely evident in each dish prepared.... If it is a casual Sunday evening or a special occasion please go to Mimi's Table. It will delight you and yours.

Had a date night tonight at Mimi's Table Tallahassee and it was amazing!! Started with the charcuterie, followed by a medium rare filet and their applewood pork chop.. ended with the tiramisu! The hand sanitizer on every table and salt served in personal serving bowls by request made me feel great about their COVID precautions!! Go give them a try!

Get a reservation! It's so good everyone wants to go there. The staff is very attentive, food is excellent. Could use a French Sauvignon Blanc on the wines by the glass list.

Exquisite restaurant! The food is outstanding. I had the pork chop. It was smoked perfectly. High quality meat that melted in my mouth. The sauce (dare I call it gravy?) was super tasty. The greens and mashed potatoes were as good as my granny served - and that is the highest compliment that I can give. Casual atmosphere, but definitely upscale with linen tablecloths and napkins etc. Cozy room with a small bar. It was too hot to sit outside but they have a nice area that reminds me of those cafes on Rue Cler in Paris. The manager and server were friendly. Excellent experience. I will absolutely return to this restaurant. I recommend it highly to everyone.

What a lovely meal experience from start to finish! We started with a nice amuse bouche with cantaloupe and cucumber. My date ordered the cheese board but asked for pork to be on it as well. We were told it was the one year anniversary of this restaurant so we were both served complimentary prosecco. The watermelon gazpacho was mildly flavorful with hints of basil and balsamic along with the watermelon. My portobello caprese on a bed of mascarpone polenta and his spinach lasagna were out of this world. We decided against dessert since we were full. A small bowl of mini gummie bears appeared with our check. Caitlin provided excellent service throughout. We absolutely love this restaurant!

Very very good. Worth the price. Service was excellent. Clean. Pleasant ambience. Not too loud. Got a charcuterie cheese board appetizer. Nothing special. But entrees were fantastic! Ahi tuna and braised short ribs. Good size portions, but not too much. Key lime pie for desert. Really good. Give this place a try!!

A friend of mine and I dined at Mimi's table today with our 1 year old toddlers. We walked into the restaurant around 5:30 and it was completely empty. The mood seemed a bit off in the restaurant, but I didn't think much of it. We were greeted by the server that I had been served by at least twice on my other visits to the restaurant (Mimi's is one of my go-to's) and we sat and begin ordering. They only had one high chair, but my friend held her baby as we ordered drinks, soups, and an appetizer. I gave my baby snacks and she did the same. We did fine, during apps and then ordered our food. My son screamed out once because he wanted his milk, I gave it to him, and there was no more yelling. About 5 minutes later he yelled again because he wanted more of my soup, and I didn't notice while I was talking. I fed him the soup. About 2 minutes later the owner came out, appeared to be in a bit of a mood already and said, "Can we stop all of the yelling, I have guest coming in at 6." I was taken aback, as I am a guest as well, and a bit embarrassed, but said, "Yes, my apologies, he's only one and I will try my hardest." My friend looked at me after he left and asked if I just wanted to leave. I said yes, as I was in tears at this point. The server came over and said , "I am so sorry." I said, " I have eaten here several times before, with my son. Before we bought him the first time I specifically called and ask, and the owner/chef has even come over and been kind in greeting us before." She said, "I know, I've served you. I don't know what that was about." We checked out and I asked to speak to the owner. He came out positioned for an argument, but that was not the approach I intended to take at all. I begin to tell him I didn't know they didn't allow kids? He stated we do, well behaved kids. This completely caught me off guard, I have served before, and know customer service well. It seemed like this line of communication was set to trigger an argument. I said, "He is actually very well behaved, but only one." He said "No, he's not, but you could have eaten outside." "I told him, you never offered that, and it would have been much better customer service to approach in that manner. Further, maybe you could put that you only allow children of a certain age. That is a lot to expect out of a one year old who has few words." (16 months) I stated further, I have recommended your restaurant over and over again on Tallahassee Foodies as the go to restaurant, and have dined here with and without him several times. He went on to say, and I quote, "I shouldn't have to offer that, you can see it. I shouldn't have to tell you to eat outside. His behavior is clearly a reflection of your parenting, we allow well behaved children, you aren't a good parent and can't control your child." I was truly floored, this man knows nothing about me at all, my child yelled twice, I was HOT! I said sir, "Is this another issue, perhaps a race thing? Because I can't imagine you treat everyone like this? I am so confused." He stated, "So because you aren't a good parent, it's a race issue?" "I stated, I truly hope it's a customer service issue and not a race issue" and proceeded to just leave. The food is delicious at Mimi's Table, and I really wish I could say it was a particular server, but it's the owner. The customer service is awful. And I hope it was just a bad night. I will not be returning, because I can't imagine dining their again after that level of disrespect, rudeness, back customer service. He told me I was a bad parent! He didn't just ask me to leave, he was plain nasty to me.

Quality food and excellent service. This is a small, intimate restaurant with an excellent wine list. We have eaten there 6-7 times and everyone always enjoys Mimi's. Short ribs are delicious!

A bit overpriced for a chicken that tasted like Publix lemon rotisserie. We had a new server so we had a few problems My meal wasn't delivered to me until the other five in our party were halfway through their meal Nice atmosphere but quite loud Probably won't go back again

I'm done with this place. I have had very good, mediocre, and poor meals. I started with carry out during the pandemic and love their ordering system online and most of the time have had my orders correct. The past three times, it was messed up and tonight's was the worst. I have tried many of the items on the menu and will say I don't expect everything to be to my liking. I love the grilled meats, and miss the prime rib that used to be on the carry out menu. I am sadly disappointed in the variety of vegetables and the amount of salt used. I tried the collard greens with the delicious pork chops, but they were so salty I couldn't eat them. The next time I ordered the green beans instead. I found their lasagnas saltier than I care for. The bread is always good. SO tonight I sent my order, received an email confirmation and then got a phone call from the restaurant to confirm: Asparagus instead of collard greens, on one entree and salad instead of potatoes on the other. What did I get? Collard greens! Potatoes where I didn't want them! Sauce for my steak so salty I couldn't eat it! No butter for bread! I had been working since 5:30am this morning and if I lived closer, I would have gone back. No more!

Omg this was probably the best meal I've had in a while! I took my boyfriend here for his birthday and everything was way above expectations! The service was great and the food was absolutely delicious! They had a great wine selection, but my bf and I shared a glass of sangria to make room for all the food we were planning on eating haha! The chef sent out a delicious amuse bouche to start! It was a fall salad with a fried sweet potato garnish! Then for appetizers we ordered the potato soup and fritto misto! The potato soup was so creamy and delicious, the truffle oil in it was subtle, yet so tasty, and pancetta garnish was a wonderful touch! The fritto misto was probably some of the best calamari I've ever had, and the fra diavola sauce was a perfect pair! I really enjoyed the fried artichoke hearts that were mixed in with it! For entrees my boyfriend got the pork chop with add on scallops! The scallops were HUGE and so buttery, they just melted in your mouth (I may have stolen one)! His pork chop was smoky and scrumptious, and I could have drank the mushroom sauce that came with it! I got the Australian rack of lamb, which was mouth watering and cooked to perfection! For dessert we got the vanilla crème brûlée! I previously thought I didn't like crème brûlée after previously having it elsewhere, but I thought wrong! The crème brûlée was velvety and the perfect size! Can't rave about this place enough!

The most recent negative reviews are from people who haven't eaten there and are just angry over a rant in a Facebook group chat so please be cautious when reading some of the reviews.

Incredible friendly owner and employees. Excellent service. Great little spot on the corner from TMH, always popping but plenty of tables to accommodate and the outside seating is great. Parking can be cramped at peak time, but we park down the road a bit and don't mind the walk, it's well worth it.

My wife and I both had the pork chops and they were phenomenal; maybe in the top 5 of any meal I ever had.
