    Fun location, outstanding service, warm hospitality, and delicious food. The menu is fun and interactive, requiring you to mark in your choices and preferences with a pencil as if you were at a sushi bar. Prices are reasonable and there was no wait for a Friday night dinner. We were too full to try dessert, but their truffle gnocchi was the star appetizer.

    Delicious food! Sunday early afternoon not busy. The goat cheese dip was an excellent appetizer. The Brussel sprouts were fantastic! My favorite meatball is the classic, but the chicken with honey Sriracha sauce is outstanding!

    I visited yesterday with my boyfriend for the first time. I got four classic meatballs with spicy bolognese sauce over linguine with a side of fried brussel sprouts. He had classic meatballs and fried chicken with marinara sauce over linguine and a fried chicken slider. The food was good, but at the same time I've had better. Not as good as Olive garden, but way better than Fazoli's.

    Mimi Blue on Mass Ave in Indy was a great location for a business lunch. The ambiance was relaxing and spacious. The staff was friendly and helpful, the restaurant was clean and acoustics were good for conversation. The meatballs were delicious. I selected 4 meatballs. 2 wonderballs, 1 classic and 1 turkey. I selected the Bourbon BBQ sauce for all. I chose the fried brussel sprouts for my side. My colleagues selected the sriracha sauce. They said it had some kick to it. One of my colleagues had a salad. Overall thumbs up for this experience. Highly recommend Mimi Blue for a meal.

    Great and friendly service! The chopped romaine salad was really good, the banana pudding was great, and we liked the veggie meatball, mushroom gravy and garlic cream best. My boyfriend also loved the black bean ball and I loved the wow ball. The fried chicken was alright as well as the rest of the meat-balls. Cozy atmosphere and something new to try on Mass Ave!

    Oh my god, they offer vegetarian meatball options and they are a must try, they taste absolutely delicious. We tried the veggie+black bean quinoa+wonderball meatballs, the garlic cream and spicy cilantro were our favorite sauces. The staff were extremely friendly, they kept checking on us every now and then. The food arrived quicker than expected, but they did have a 30 min wait time to get a table. I suggest to reserve a table at least an hour before you arrive.

    I highly recommend the spicy cilantro combined with the siracha aiolo on a fried chicken slider.

    Such a unique restaurant with tasty food! The buttermilk cauliflower was incredible!! Will definitely be coming back to try all the different meatballs and sauces. One of our friends is vegan so we appreciated the various vegan options on the menu. Would highly recommend Mimi Blue!!

    I had a great dinner at the downtown location. My server had great suggestions and recommendations. I was dining alone but was very comfortable. The restaurant was very clean and everyone was friendly. My dinner was the fried chicken meatballs, garlic sauce, Mac n cheese, and roasted Brussel sprouts. Excellent! My only regret was that I couldn't get a doggie bag for my leftovers due to my travel schedule. Can't wait to go back next time I'm in Indy!

    This restaurant is a Jewel !!! Our server Nat was amazing. She was very attentive and informative with guidance of the menu . The meatballs with selection of fresh sauces were delicious. The food appears and taste like everything is homemade and made from scratch. The decor fits the menu and service vibe. I highly highly recommend checking this restaurant out as it gets a A plus and two thumbs up, not to mention that it’s also very clean . Coming in from Detroit for a visit , I’m impressed!

    Had the beef meatballs, but really wonder if I actually got the classic ones w pork. They were very garlicky and highly seasoned. I admit I gobbled up the sandwich, but probably not the best choice for a late dinner!

    Went here with friends, server was nice and friendly, the ambience was great and we sat outside. Food superb, i recommend their 4 meatballs with spicy cilantro sauce. So yummy!!

    The food was great, as always. Our server was AWFUL. she was not even the slightest bit attentive. she never checked on us & at one point, we had to ask the greeter to go get her for us because there was an error with our order & we had all run out of beverages. It was very disappointing, as service is usually much better than this. It'll be a great while before I return.

    The food here is ALWAYS good. The meatballs are amazing, especially the Bourbon BBQ ones! I had the brisket sandwhich this time and it was good, but the other sandwhiches are also tasty! The cocktail drinks are a treat too. Not to mention the great and helpful wait staff

    We came here on 2/14/23. First time trying. Not bad. We got the truffle creamed gnocchi as a starter. That was very good! Then we also got the brisket and mash potatoes. The brisket was more like a roast. Overall the dish wasn't good. We got the fried brussel sprouts. Not bad. And then my partner got the crab cake special. Which was awesome. Give them a 4 star. And will be back!

    The food was good, but not noteworthy. The gnocchi was the highlight of the meal. It tasted of a mix of gorgonzola and blue cheese. I wanted to try what they were known for, the meatballs. Although each meatball had a different meat and sauce, they all kind of tasted the same and definitely needed some sort of pallet cleanser/vegetable to eat with it. I felt very sick after getting home, which was unfortunate. I did appreciate that they had multiple vegetarian options!

    Terrible experience. Bad service. We were here for over a hour and had to flag down help multiples times. There was only one other table seated, so place wasn’t busy I didn’t get entire order, so they put in the missing order after our meal comes out. This comes out after we have finished our meal and we were still charged for this. Food was good, but worst service ever. 4 waiters and a manager and they would rather talk and stare at their phones instead of giving us even decent service

    Had lunch with a cousin on a Friday afternoon. Very nice weather so we sat outside. We started with the buttermilk battered cauliflower. Perfect prepared with a great dipping sauce. Cousin had turkey balls and fried brussel sprouts while I had the fried chicken balls and mac and cheese. Both dishes were amazing. Staff was also very helpful with suggestions. Can't to try some of the other items.

    Cool place. Not your average place to eat, at least not in my home area. Their meatballs are tasty. You order by checking what you want on the menu. Pretty cool. A little on the pricey side, but good portions. I'd definitely go back.

    This place is awesome!! We come every few months and it never disappoints! We did have one mishap this time (my bf's last 2 beef meatballs weren't cooked well done) but, they took care of it right away and took all 4 of his meatballs off of our check! The chicken with sriracha aioli is sooooo good! That sauce is one of my fav. I also got the mushroom gravy which is always good with extra gravy for the mashed potatoes. I also got the bbq which I wasnt a fan of, its was good I'm just not big on bbq and my bf wanted to try it. He got the mushroom gravy and garlic cream which another fav. The bread is crunchy amd fresh with real butter. We had a really good trip here.

    We had a corporate party planned at Mimi blue. The food was delicious and novel. It's famous for meatballs and they have all kinds of meatballs available, even vegetarian options ( not sure if that is still called meatballs). You can mix and match meatballs with sauce of your liking. There are many tasty sauces to choose from. Quantity aplenty, good number of draft beer, great vibe and ambience. Must visit place for celebration and family fun.
