Mimi's Cafe - Glendale(patton)

Stopped here a couple months ago. Mimosas were delicious and food was okay but nothing crazy. The only thing that threw us off was that when we split our checks the waitress put a total at top circled and told us what we owed. Upon review we noticed that that was a total plus the tip she gave herself. We definitely always tip but it just threw us off that she decided to tell us how much we were tipping as it was a little over 20%.Don't think we'll be back after this.

We went there during Mother's Day and had 7 people in the group. The way they had their menu was very predatory. Their menu consisted of only 3 courses and $34 each. In totals the meal came out to about $50 for each of us and the check included an already set gratuity fee of 18%. We were not allowed to choose individual items and we felt bad and decided to stay because the waiters had set up the tables for us 7. 2 of us had the steak and it was delicious and they both asked for the steaks medium rare but what was strange was half of the steak was medium rare and the other half was rare and ****. Other than that the food portions were underwhelming for the price and overall the meal was very mediocre. I would gladly return to eat the normal menu but I would never go back during holidays due to the set menu that was not advertised until you sit down and see the menu.

Had a reservation at 1030am. Arrived and were told it would be over an hour before our table was ready. GM, Angel, said they overbooked. Crazy thing is they were still seating walk ins and making people with reservations wait. I asked the host for the managers name and I was told he wasn't authorized to give that to me. Probably the most frustrating and strange experience I've ever had at a restaurant. Then they told me they would call/text when my table was ready. Never got a call or text. Left after an hour and went to Olive Garden

Perhaps I came on a bad day, but I am not impressed. I ordered the Ribeye and eggs. For starters the meal is nearly $40, so I guess I was expecting more? Literally two eggs a handful of potatoes and a really bad steak.Please look into this Mimi's. I ordered medium rare. I got Bleu which I still ate because in reality I'm not that picky, but the problem was is this steak wasn't even hot enough to melt the herb butter on top of it.I've honestly had better steak and potatoes out of a frozen entree.I'm giving 3 stars because my service was on par and the atmosphere is nice, but your cook needs some help.

Great service and great food. Been there several times over the past 2 years and have had the same experience.
