Restaurant Chinese restaurant

🫤 Nice ambience , mostly are deep fried foods on the menu, and small portion. Suitable for those who like fried foods. The foods here are extremely salty and greasy especially Crispy Char Siew Bao and Crispy Pork Ribs with Red Wine Honey Plum Sauce. Truffle roasted pork belly is pretty decent. Typhoo...

    Nice ambience , mostly are deep fried foods on the menu, and small portion. Suitable for those who like fried foods. The foods here are extremely salty and greasy especially Crispy Char Siew Bao and Crispy Pork Ribs with Red Wine Honey Plum Sauce. Truffle roasted pork belly is pretty decent. Typhoon Shelter Style Duck Leg Confit is overcooked, the meat is super dry and tough. Sichuan Mala Chicken is edible but nothing fantastic. Can order Crispy King Pawn Ball, the prawn is fresh and big. Chef’s Secret Recipe Cod Fish is fresh but OILY. For the vege, we ordered String Bean with XO sauce and Sautéed Asparagus, it tastes normal but it’s oily and salty still. Main course we ordered Seafood fried rice with Mentaiko Sauce. This features a portion of fried rice topped with prawns , small scallops with mentaiko sauce. One star for this dish, the best among the dishes we have ordered. Overall: Super jelak after having the foods.

    Mimi is perfect for date nights or private dinner with friends. We’ve been here several times and it always impresses with the right atmosphere for great conversations. They recently revamped their menu and somehow everything we tried was better than their previous menu, which was already excellent. The Typhoon Duck Confit was mind blowingly good, and I would say this is the must try dish of Mimi right now. It is in a conserved Chinese mansion so is very distinctive from the shophouses around it, and I love hearing little tidbits of history about the 150 year old building. With modern touches mixed with lots of history, it has a very distinctive feeling about it from the moment you walk in. Already looking forward to going here again!

    Date of visit: Thurs 12 Oct 2023 Time : 7.30 pm Long time never been back here. Made a reservation for 2 and celebrating my friend’s BD. Ordered 1 signature dish, crab dish, and Hong Kong style fried seafood noodles. The crab dish no longer tasted good. Seafood noodles and seafood not bad but sauce a bit salty. For BD, they don’t have cakes but served us longevity buns. Cute. Staff service is good and warm all round though. Date of visit : 16 Apr 2022 Time : dinner 7pm Place was quite empty at that time. No one below to receive us and apparently the restaurant is upstairs. Ambience is nice and music is old 70-80s Chinese music. Google reviews show a good score for Mimi so I decided to try here with 4 friends. We ordered mainly the signature dishes. All are picture pretty and seem like Chinese fusion food. We enjoyed all the food, from start to finish. Happy with all the choices. Service was a bit lackluster though. Hope it could be improved with Covid recovery.

    Visited Mimi yesterday evening. The staff were wonderfully friendly, informative and attentive. Especially the Chinese female and male staff who attended to us (we were seated directly across from the cashier counter). The dishes and drinks came quickly. I gave 3 out of 5 stars for two reasons. Reason 1 - Cigarette Smoke Midway through our meal, we started smelling strong cigarette smoke. Quite unpleasant and uncomfortable on our noses. We at first thought it might be the smoke from frying, but cigarette smoke has a distinctive smell. Reason 2 - Decent Dishes The dishes in our 8 course dinner were all right overall. I especially enjoyed the nicely presented cod fish, king prawn with roasted sesame, seafood fried rice, and Treasure of the Sea soup. The ones that were decent are the 3 dim sum in the dim sum basket, braised shitake mushrooms with broccoli, pork ribs with red wine honey (I was unlucky and got a piece that had mostly fats), and the dessert (yam paste with corn sauce that was too sweet for me).

    There was no one at the second floor reception and we stood around for a couple of minutes before a staff came over to show us to our seats. The acoustics sans music made conversations uncomfortable though no fault to the restaurant as it's due to Covid restrictions. Peking duck skin was sliced clean and thinly then smoked table-side. Would be perfect if the skin was more crisp. We enjoyed the clams in herbal soup as well as the eggplant with pork, both comfort food reminders of home. Their signature truffle noodle is a mix of vermicelli and glass noodle, although tasty I felt it's overall texture was too starchy/sticky. Our second dish made from the duck meat was chopped and stirfried with truffle and interestingly served in pie ti sort of shells. Thin, delicate and delicious. I do wish a complimenting taste profile was added into the filling, like dried chili or a sour element to give it a surprising pop of flavour. All their cocktails were good but weren't served until we highlighted the missing drinks, 3 dishes into the meal. The peach gum dessert would have been better named white fungus dessert as there was hardly any peach gum, taste wise was ok.

    Menu has very interesting dishes. Food was tasty and delicious. Lychee scallop was not so nice as the scallop was too small, can only taste the flour/crust. Prawn was really good. They have the flaming chicken, but I think that was more gimmick for show kind. Service was good too.

    Dishes served ranged from downright tasty to average. The duck was extremely tender and the skin was crispy, perfect for Beijing wrap. The chicken served was on fire literally before being chopped and served, and also extremely tender and flavorful from the spices it came with. Pork ribs was crunch and tasty. The fried rice and noodles were normal.

  • 3/5 喜喜米 3 months ago on Google • 121 reviews New
    This is my second visit to MiMi, prompted by my friend's desire for flavorful Chinese food before heading outstation for supervision. During the first visit, the food was exquisite, and the presentation was meticulous. However, on this second visit, the items seemed more casual. Perhaps the first experience set our expectations too high. Apart from the food, the waitstaff appeared less approachable. When we requested a hard copy menu, the response was, 'We don't have one, just scan the QR code.' Despite my attempts to scan the code, it didn't appear on my phone until I insisted, and they eventually provided a printed copy. (food order is taken manually instead of via order online, why so insisted on scan QR) We tried the Deep-Fried White Bait Fish, Chicken on Fire, Char Siu & Roasted Pork Belly Cubes, Camphor Tea Smoked Duck, Beef Tenderloin Cubes with Black Pepper Sauce, Crispy King Prawn with Wasabi, Asparagus, and desserts like Chilled Mango Sago with Pearls and Osmanthus Jelly with mixed fruit cocktails. The White Bait Fish and Beef Tenderloin Cubes stood out as worth trying, while the others met standard expectations. One positive aspect was the background music, a well-mixed blend of classic Chinese songs that complemented the restaurant's ambiance.

    Mimi's great for their modern Asian cuisine. The ambience is pretty great. Only wished they would clean up the decor more since there's dust on the walls. Otherwise, the food is really wonderful and quite value for money. Location is great for a nice evening to soak up the oriental vibes.

    Food, price, service, and experience was great! I'll be back 👍👍 Food: I recommend every dish I had tbh (see photos). They transformed their food making it more unique than the average dish you have elsewhere. Truffle pasta, string beans, and wagyu soup were standouts for me. Drinks: Nice selection and unique! Service: Attentive, friendly, and all the food arrived relatively the same time so we were able to enjoy everything. Ambiance: Nice and clean place. The music was nice and lively which I do prefer it to be a little louder (but that's my personal liking given were in phase 2).

    Overall the environment is pretty nice and cozy. But the food taste very normal or below average. The duck meat is dry and hard. Service wise is bad, we haven’t finish our food and the staff keep wanting to keep our plate and food. Very disturbing! (Suggestion: let your customers enjoy their food in peace) The dessert also far different from it description, they explained the coconut out of stock, so they put in bowl with “additional portion” 🙄

    The name of the restaurant 'Mimi Restaurant' (秘密, 'secret' directly translated) is reflected in the location of entrance. You may miss the entrance if you are not observant enough 🤭 Truffle lovers coul try their 'truffle dishes'! Very generous truffle portion. We ordered Cheesy Truffle Stuffed Crab Claw, The Unsubtle Truffle Mien, Steamed Har Gow, Meng Har Kok and Pan Seared Carrot Cake with XO sauce. Enough portion for 2 pax. Overall, yummy food and great services too!

    Came across this restaurant on IG and made a reservation for a dinner gathering. To be honest, every dish was good and exceeded my overall expectation of this place. If I had to choose, the top three must-try would be the the saucy crab & egg affair, chicken on fire and lychee scallop with furikake cereal. They served interesting signature cocktails too! There are many other interesting choices on the menu that I would love to try, am looking forward to my next visit already.

    Saw someone sharing this interesting Chinese restaurant. So I booked a table of 5 to celebrate my daughter’s bday. The place is super cold, do put on more if you cannot stand the temperature. It’s located on the 2nd floor. Initially when we walked up, I like the environment. But little to what we expect, we were shocked to encounter an unpleasant scene when we were shown to our table. After we settled down at another table and ordered our ala carte instead of their set dinner menu. Once again, another hiccup - they have omitted some of our orders. Honestly their food is nice. The restaurant wasn’t packed but somehow their service was not up to standard. After we are done with our dinner, the staff came forward to apologise and she has shown sincerity to make it up for us even though we were not making any complaints. We were thinking of leaving for another place for dessert but they insisted to throw in a few signature dessert. To make things happy for both sides, we gladly accepted for their kind gesture. Although we were already quite full, we finished up all their dessert coz they didn’t like to waste food. Apart from the above, their chef have creativity on their food appearance. Signature cocktails tasted sweet. The ambience is cosy and I enjoyed the music they played. That’s why I still give a 4 star rating. We hope they will take extra care of their setting areas.

    Had a fantastic meal here - was looking for some chinese food, but with a bit of modern twist - exactly what I was looking for! Really liked the fire chicken, the smoked peking duck and the yin tang crab! Delicious.

    I spent my birthday at Mimi, but didn't receive any special greetings or attention. The signature crab meat and lychee balls we wanted are no longer available. We were very disappointed when a young waitress impatiently informed us that all the signature dishes we could see on social media were not available anymore. Besides, almost all vegetables are out of stock, and the only options are broccoli and spinach. So we ordered spinach, but it didn't come for a long time. Until we saw that the next table, which ordered after us, already had spinach. We asked the waitress and she told us that the kitchen had forgotten to make it… Fortunately, the flame-chicken is still available, very good-looking but a little salty. The mustard shrimp balls were the best dish of the meal. Hope the restaurant can update the menu soon to avoid disappointing customers.

    Been to this little hidden gem twice in 2 weeks! We loved the food so much that we made another reservation on the spot for another! From the website, restaurant looks really chic and classy. I would expect the price to be in the higher side, but it is reasonably priced! We ordered a few starters and had to re-order as it was super tasty. Must try the baby squid, lotus root and fish skin! Service was great! We had a private room and brought our own champagne and wine. Main dishes were even tastier! We felt like we ordered almost everything on the menu! What's dinner without desserts? Again, we ordered one of each of the dessert on the menu! Red bean pancake, cheng tng, orh ni, jelly... So pleased!

    Visited on a Tuesday night. Having read the reviews, I expected the place to be bustling with people but the entire restaurant was surprisingly empty. Ambiance is nice and staff were friendly and attentive. We had the 8-course dinner meal and the meal was good. Each dish were cooked to perfection and were flavorful. However, the dishes in the set course were pretty standard and we regretted getting the set course as the a la carte dishes seemed very interesting so it might've been better to order a couple of dishes from the a la carte menu instead. Overall, it was an enjoyable dinner

    Fried rice and the char siew were really good. Black stout pork ribs was interesting and I liked it too. Price is a bit on the higher end though

    Good food although prices are a bit pricey. Chinese tapas is a good idea cos you get to try out more dishes. Especially enjoyed the chilli crab mantou (altho more mantous will ve gd) and black garlic chicken (really special, standout dish). Service is good and it's in a beautiful conservation building.

    A charming place with lovely food, service n ambience. Enjoyed our dining experience at this restaurant. Interior is very much an oriental theme. Food is sumptuous and delectable. Highly recommended to dine with a few good friends. Will return to try out the rest of the menu.

    Chicken on Fire-Interesting, but the meat is dry, hope can be improved… Wasabi Prawn-can be improved too.. I like the following, recommend: Fried Noodle-surprised us, one of the best of all dishes CharSiew & Roasted Pork-Must try! Pork Rib-So flavourful, best go with white rice. You can’t miss: P.Fizzy Brew-Chinese Tea Brew 😄 Peanut Lychee Mochi-my favourite Yampaste in Coco-my sis favourites Service is good, a lady staff prepared 寿桃, longevity bun for the birthday boy. She did explained to us too, on the change of menu is mainly due to the change of Chef. Overall, we enjoyed our time and food here. Atmosphere is great, few tables of customers, so we can enjoy here. Hope the next visit we can get more special dishes.

    At first when we entered the building, the unit seems to be very unkempt like there was renovation happening, and there was no one on the first level to attend to us. Found someone who came out from the kitchen & told us to go up to level 2. Service was bad although there wasn’t much customer to begin with. The food don’t come in sequence as well (we ordered set B & the duck&pork came later than the veges). I had 2 Amex plat card which allows me to get 2 complimentary drinks but they said they were super understaffed so they could only provide 1 complimentary drink… Food generally was good, the best ones are surprisingly the cod & lo hei. I had better duck and pork.. When paying, the waitstaff didn’t even try to look at us when a few of us waved our hands and even tried to voice out that I am looking to make payment. I ended up needing to move up to them and said that I want to make payment. Food was good but not good enough for me to want to go back due to the bad service. There were several hiccups throughout as well which one of them is not to change the cloth after doing lohei. So we had to eat with dirty cloth throughout. I couldn’t even take nice pictures without seeing the food marks all over it. There were tables with lazy Susan, and I’m not sure why mine wasn’t given as we have 7 people. It wasn’t very convenient to grab the food as well. If I had the choice, I wouldn’t spend another thousand here. 🤣

    Comfortable environment, love the jazz music in the background. The food is rather average, the portions are not very big, though on the bright side it meant that I could order many different dishes to try! The crispy “lychee” mochi was an intriguing dish though—really delightful! I would highly recommend you order the cocktails here—they are really refreshing with a Oriental twist. Secret garden and Spill the Tea were both fantastic drinks.

    My go to restaurant for any special occasion with my significant other. I always enjoy the food and their service never disappoints. Special mention to the server, Philip, always taking care of his guest and serving with a smile on his face.

    Mimi is a great place to enjoy a delicious meal in a relaxed and inviting atmosphere. The restaurant's unique cuisine and friendly staff make it a great choice for a night out with friends…

  • 4/5 David T. 2 years ago on Google
    More hits than misses, and I will definitely be back. The food is very very good - we had the lychee scallop, chilli crab (presented in yin-yang style), pork ribs with red wine honey plum sauce, typhoon shelter style duck leg confit. The grand letdown of the night was the mao shan wang durian tart - the filling was way too watery instead of being more curd-like, and the ratio of filling to pastry was wrong. It looks pretty and that's about it. Thankfully the savoury dishes saved the day. The service was unusually poor considering how empty the restaurant was.

  • 5/5 conny q. 2 years ago on Google
    Food was really good! I always love all the dishes I ordered there. Was dining with my mom and my sister whom we are small eaters. Males may feel the portions are small but to us it was great! Most importantly I am impressed by the impeccable service provided especially from the restaurant manager. He was attentive and efficient despite the increasing crowd streaming in through our dinner. The restaurant prepared a special dessert for my mom who was a November baby! She loved the peach buns because it was so unique and the restaurant even prepared in servings of 3 for the 3 of us! Everything was well thought of so no reason why we wouldn't be back as usual!

  • 5/5 Xin H. 2 years ago on Google
    Came here for CNY lou hei in their private dining room. Dedicated service staff with all-round attentiveness to your needs. Offered my friend a scarf as well as she was feeling slightly cold under the air-conditioner. Char Siew is a must-have. Very tender and just melts in your mouth. Look for Sasha - he’ll be a great host!

  • 4/5 Angela T. 2 years ago on Google
    Food is generally interesting n personally I like the truffle mein, duck confit, purple potato cheesecake. It's unique n appealing to the eyes. The female service staff are attentive. However we were greeted at the door by a male staff who looked quite irritated n unfriendly. Does not kill to be more friendly n to give a warm smile to the guests. And there is a flight of stairs to walk up. Might not be that suitable a place for old ppl with weak legs. On the whole I m happy with my food n will be back to try other dishes.

    Very interesting Chinese restaurant! Never had a bad dish! Very good portion.. Would recommend anyone interested in an upmarket Chinese food! Clam soup is super shiok to drink haha! Eoll try their Peking duck the next time im there!

  • 4/5 Juliet L. 1 year ago on Google
    Recommend the soup, black pepper tenderloin, cod fish, chicken on fire and hor fun. Personally I thought the crispy kurobuta Char Siew Pao is oily so not to my liking. Also do not recommend duo BBQ Char Siew and Truffle Roast Pork Belly too. Reasonably priced as well, we ordered quite a lot of dishes and about ~$60 per person

  • 5/5 Jiak P. 1 year ago on Google
    This is not the typical kind of chinese restaurant here, but the food served here is good and beautifully presented. It is generally safe to opt for their signature dish, which is tagged by the Mimi logo. Quantity is small relatively small so can order a number of dishes for sharing. The pictures presented were for a total of 3 pax.

  • 4/5 Jamie C. 1 year ago on Google
    A few dishes stand out more than others. We particularly enjoyed the lychee scallops, the Peking duck and its 2nd dish, that cooked with truffle the most. Lala and the egglant was not too bad. The rest were alright. The pork buns are unforgettable, skin were abit too thick. One thing that can be improved is probably have napkin for each diner instead of serviette. I think staff training can be improved as well, they were not rude or bad, just perhaps need more zest and warmth. Toilet is clean in general, but doesn't match the atmosphere of the restaurant. Overall, we still enjoyed the dinner. Thank you.

  • 5/5 G L. 2 years ago on Google
    Surprise find on chope! The dishes seem innovative and intriguing. The taste is decently good. I thought the mentaiko on the mentaiko fried rice was a little excessive on a dish that tasted good on its own and it did get jelat after a few bites. Coconut ginseng soup was nice. Lychee scallops were a nice surprise and is done like cereal prawns. I wish the lychee are plumper and juicier. I look forward to coming back to check out the other dishes!

  • 5/5 xmeex 11 months ago on Google
    The flaming chicken is definitely the star of the night, tender and tasty, not dry at all. The fried char siew bao is also a must order. It was so good! The chilli crab is quite spicy so beware for those who can’t take spicy! Recommend this place if you want to take a break from the usual Chinese restaurants 😀

  • 5/5 Moni V. 10 months ago on Google
    Excellent food and services but a bit hard to find the place. Overall experience was amazing. The cocktail was also good. Please add directions to your restaurant. Some other customers and I took time to find the place.

  • 4/5 Charis 9 months ago on Google
    Went there for dinner with my family, it had pretty good chinese food. I like the fire chicken 火焰鸡 and clams herbal miso soup the most. The food was a tad salty though. They allowed us to bring a cake which was nice. The overall ambience was quite dark and i felt the table layout in the middle of the room was a little out of place. Its almost like a makeshift area. But i would go back there for the fire chicken again

  • 5/5 Mervin N. 11 months ago on Google
    Best part is the ambience, you're able to talk within your table without raising your voice unlike most places. There's even live music on the first floor. Food is divine too, nice Asian fusion cuisine that blends surprisingly well. Service is great, water refills are almost immediate. Only problem for us was locating the restaurant. But could be because of the construction going on everywhere

  • 2/5 Cello F. 1 year ago on Google
    Was curious to find out about this Mimi restaurant few months ago, but always fully booked. Finally managed to reserve a table few days ago on the same day of dining without any effort, but what a let down - there's no Mimi after all.....I think I know the reasons for the emptiness. Exterior building looks interesting, but once u entered level 1, which belong to another restaurant I think, was quite messy, as if it's closing down. Then walk up p a flight of illuminated stairs, the actually Mimi restaurant at level 2. Ambience looks cheap instead of welcoming until I don't even bother to walk around the restaurant to take pictures, that's how uninviting it is. Ambience 3/10. Food wise, for the kinda price, considered small portion. So of coz I expect food to tickle my taste bud. 2 dished stand out among the high class zi char equivalent dishes - the mentako fried rice and the red wine pork rib. Worth the price. Oh! Like some reviewers commented, don't go for set menu, way too overpriced... The $20+ hor fun has wok hei, suitable for 2 pax to share. Not bad too, but I think not worth the price. The yin-yang crab meat with only 6 fried mantou, not worth it. Nothing special. Pls skip. The eggplant, flavorful, but other zi char also have. The fiery Chicken, very gimmicky, ordinary and had a bit of frozen chicken taste. Meat is tender though. The worst is the signature 4 seasons toufu...sesami, matcha, fried and origin flavor. Order at your own risk. Waiter refilling the drink is hardworking and prompt. When you charge this kinda upper range price, selling unique dishes, my expectation going to be high unfortunately fail the mark. If price is lower, positioned as zi char stall food in such ambience setting, I will rate 4 ⭐ Dessert choices very little and unappetizing and of coz expensive too. End up going elsewhere for dessert.

    Celebrated my husband’s birthday at Mimi and It was such a wonderful dining experience! Food was great and definitely left me craving for more. Service was also super thoughtful - Darren was constantly checking if we needed anything else and made sure that we were well taken care of. Will definitely wana visit this place again!!

    Great ambience and unique take on classic chinese dishes. As the portion is slightly small, you might have to order more for sharing. Do order the yam paste with corn and coconut cream for dessert!

    Loved it..loved the food,the ambience and with chope good pricing. Abu provided such a good first impression..trying to accomodate all my questions and dietary restrictions on the phone. Service staff were very pleasant.The food was a little slow in arriving ..perhaps the chef was taking his time to make each dish excellent. 92 yr ol mum wolfed down her food and said it was delicious..extra touch of providing a glass of wine,longevity buns and cake complimentary for mothers day was really sweet too. Will definitely come again.

    Fantastic and flavourful dishes in a culturally rich shophouse. Covers of classic oldies played in the background. The service was attentive and prompt.

    Very descent dinning environment, fusion concept Chinese cuisine. Not overwhelming with seasoning, chef cooking skill just right. Excellent. Highly recommend and definitely will visit again

    Hidden gem with great food! Everything was delicious and the highlight for me was the char Siew that was perfectly charred yet juicy that was finished before I could take a photo. Also had the XO seafood fried rice, saucy crab with mantou, truffle noodles and duck burgers. For dessert the yam (or nee) was dense and so tasty. Will absolutely be back here!

    Got these bento sets at a superb value, especially after a pickup discount. Generous portions as well with 3 huge fillet pieces for the sweet and sour fish and lots of shrimp and mini scallops in the ee fu noodles. The kurobuta charsiew was delightful and carb dishes were standouts. I'm sooo into the fluffy and fragrant fried rice that's not oily at all. My one qualm's that the french beans were incredibly salty. But overall I would love to revisit and recommend them to anyone living or working nearby. Some really good stuff.

    Celebrated Chinese New year here and we were seated in a private room. Great prosecco that I had 3 glasses. Food was scrumptious, my favourite and best Chinese restaurant I have been to. Each dish is traditional and yet done in a fresh way. The red bean paste pastry is the hidden star, it was unassuming and plain looking but we could not stop eating those and were fighting over the last piece.

    Great place for a date, chic and lovely decor. Enjoyed the four seasons tofu (especially the black sesame tofu, recommend this dish), the mentaiko fried rice and the claypot chicken rice (with foie gras and truffle, which the staff shaved at our table). Had 1-for-1 mains (under Chope) so it was good value.

    Food was superb! Very high quality and the taste is really good. Each dish was very well rounded and balanced taste. Nothing was too overwhelming. And the dishes were all very interesting and fresh! Bernard was also very friendly and made sure we enjoyed our dinner. Will definitely come back!

    The mala chicken and truffle noodles were really nice. I would even say the best i've eaten so far in Singapore. Music and ambience is a bit wierd for chinese food though. Would come again and bring friends

    Food was great. Highly recommend the crab with mantou, the truffle noodles and the bandit chicken. Signature cocktails were delicious too.

    Decided to dine at MiMi, Clarke Quay which was opened in 2019. The restaurant is in a building of it's own, situated on the 2nd level with level 1 being a drinking area. Ambience is great with a great variety of choices. We tried the below recommended dishes: - Escargot Spring Roll Superior Chicken Soup with Matsutake Mushroom Rose Wine Flambeed Lamb Shank Steam-Fried Cod Fish with Special Sauce Saucy Crab & Egg Affair The Unsubtle Truffle Mein Berry Jelly (was a little disappointing) Portion is huge with a bold and interesting use of seasonings and sauces. Presentable and value for money. The serving time is short, food are served piping hot with decent customer service. Will likely be back again.

    Delicious: ❤️ crab egg white with mantou ❤️ Lychee fritters with coconut ice cream Alright 👌 stout pork ribs was okay Great service, slightly high prices, but would come again!

    came here for dinner. the service and the food were ok. i wish the dishes can be served warmer (no issue with the soup). maybe the dishes were served too soon when the previous dish was not yet fully consumed. the decor and spacing were good. i felt uncomfortable however, i think it’s a bit stuffy and no air movement.

    Love all dishes we ordered today. Dessert was great too.

  • 5/5 Diana L. 3 years ago on Google
    I had chili crab, pork robs, beef cubes, french beans & truffle mein and were very yummy & delicious! But the portion is really tiny so the price is actually quite expensive/person.

    Great Customer service, order a Large Yu sheng on new years eve, but was delivered a small one, call ask to verified if the delivery was correct. They admin in wrong order delivery and offer a new large yu sheng free on the house to honor the order. GREAT Customer service and recovery offer. Thank you for making my family CNY a special one.

    I had a very pleasant dining experience at Mimi's restaurant when celebrating birthday dinner and we're very particular about Chinese cuisine. We agreed and highly praised the Treasure of the Sea and Chicken on Fire, which she mentioned that it's a very good rendition of Chinese cuisine flavour. The duck confit is crispy on the outside but the meat is quite dry and feels a little tough at certain part. The current oriental restaurant vibe and deco is cozy and intimate, which I think is a good direction than the original deco with very bold colours. We are very pleased by the attentive service from the team as well that even went the extra mile on serving the longevity bun for us just right before closing. Other than that, it was a pleasant dining experience and looking forward to revisit again.
