Editorial Review for Chez Mimi – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
Heart-shaped wreaths, flickering tea lights and crackling fireplaces create the feel of a countryside cottage. An unobtrusive waitstaff serves plates of steaming cassoulet, garlicky escargot, dark onion soup blanketed with melted Brie and bouillabaisse studded with shrimp, mussels and whitefish. A small dessert menu features creme brulee and tarte Tatin, a serving of apples and vanilla-bean ice cream over a buttery crust.

My husband and I have been going to Chez Mimi for years. We usually go on special occasions. Wonderful ambiance. Wonderful food. But make a reservation! It's always packed.
Pros: Ambiance, Good Food
Cons: Must make reservation, service can go either way

Six of us went to Chez Mimi on a sunday night and had a very enjoyable dining experience. The waitstaff was attentive. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered. The french onion soup is great and not too heavy or too salted. The roasted chicken was tender, the mussels plentiful and fresh and the liver was yummy too. Its a very romantic restuarant and would have been even better if the weather allowed us to dine outside, but it was too chilly.
