Customer Reviews
Visiting from out of town and we get dumplings often. The pork soup dumplings here are so incredible that we came back and ate here twice on our weekend trip. Amazing. Highly recommend and prices are low for the quality.
I can’t say enough about Mimi’s Garden. Our family loved the experience. The food is delicious and inventive. The service was fantastic. And the ambience was beautiful. We spent a week in Newport Beach - and this was the best restaurant experience. Just great all around!
Outstanding service and the menu offers a wonderful variety of dishes. The restaurant boasts a great ambiance. Best hot and sour soup I have ever had, and the Kurobuta Pork and Truffle Xiao Long Bao is delicious. They also offer great desserts. I wish I could have ordered everything on the menu. I will definitely be back to try more of their flavorful dishes!
Food was great and it was nice to have pictures in the menu. Atmosphere- cute design. Indoor and outdoor seating. Not a big area to wait. Maybe they should put seats outside to wait if allowed Staff - i saw a lot of staff but none at our table and hard to catch their eye. The place was about 30% full when we arrived at 5pm. That said, we didn't get our order in until 5:35pm! They told us to sit wherever we wanted and they brought us menus and a pitcher of water. No explanation of how to order. But, Since we've been to other dumpling houses we knew to fill out the checklist. Then we sat and waited and waited. Finally got up and brought to the waiters by the kitchen. Then they come back 5 minutes later to tell us they are out of the tea we ordered and that it is just a bagged tea. Next our
So happy this place opened up! Now I can get some authentic Chinese food in the area. Got takeout from here and was satisfied with everything: pork soup xlb, sautéed spinach and pepper beef fried rice. I would just say that the fried rice was lacking a bit in terms of the rice texture—flavor was still great. The packaging was really nice the food was great quality. Takeout was easy within 15 min but I’m sure it might take longer once they get busier. Can definitely see myself coming here on a weekly basis.
