Mimi's Cafe - Knoxville

I had a wonderful 4-course dinner at the Mimi's Cafe. The atmosphere was quiet, the restaurant had not many cartridges, but was welcoming. I enjoyed Alex's top notch service, his timing was perfect to take out any course. The Caesar Salad was delicious and perfectly seasoned. The Caesar Dressing they had used a wonderful amount of flavor that made the whole dish come together. In addition to perfectly aged beet and cheese, it was a perfect opening dish. The Spinach Dip was even better. It almost filled me before my main course appeared. Instead of going with the usual tortilla chips, they use thin sliced bread that is perfectly tasted and crisp. Would definitely recommend for an appetizer, you might need more bread. The French Pot Roast is a perfect savory entrée if you are looking for something to hold on your ribs. The potatoes and the engraving are rich and a perfect basis for the dish. The Brat is tender and tender on the fork. The carrots and mushrooms are perfectly boiled al dente, they still have a lot of texture. The Lava Cake was a good way to finish the meal. The cake is sweet but not too rich until you break into the molten Fudge center. Perfect mix with vanilla ice cream on the side. Mimi's Cafe offers a lot of menu options, especially if you are looking for some breakfast or brunch options, but I would definitely stop for dinner again.

Extensive menu! Delicious food, but their breakfast options are amazing! And as always a plus for me, her coffee is CRACK! [08/30/2022] I wanted a great breakfast. [11/10/2022] Dinner with friends. Delicious! [01/27/2023: The Corned Beef Hash Benedict is WONDERFUL!

We always enjoy Mimi’s, but today was wonderful! Orlando was our waiter and he was so friendly and attentive! I feel like this kind of service is hard to come on these days!! The food was delicious as always!

Amazing experience. Dined outside and was actually waited on by the manager. He was absolutely amazing and such a nice personality. I've been a waitress many times in the last and never seen such a hard working manager that actually is willing to help and wait on tables. Food was phenomenal and fresh yet so unique. Cutest cafe by far with such a nice outdoor space in which I sat at.

What a lovely breakfast they serve here! Crispy croissant with salmon, Benedict, yummy crème brûlée!!! I love all what I’ve tried here and want to come for lunch or dinner here again! Thanks for a great service Orlando!
