text: We went to Mimis expecting good FrenchAmerican cuisine and a pleasant atmosphere When we arrived we were told that despite having made a reservation we were not on the reservation list the first issue of the evening They sat us down anyway and we ordered our food a baked brie dish for starters and a mediterranean salad a pot pie nouveau and the mussels with white wine and garlic sauce for our meals The noise levels were quite highnnThe brie came out with two small slices of bread despite the fact that there were three of us sitting at the table It took at least minutes from the arrival of our brie dish for our server to offer us a bread basket nnThen our meals arrived The pot pie nouveau and the mediterranean salad both had chicken in them that looked like processed meat that was cubed and very chewy It certainly was not fresh The prosciutto in the salad was so sparse that it was hardly noticeable nnThe mussels were horrific They were not only entirely overcooked but the sauce had no hint of wine in it and was condensed to a honeylike consistency It seemed to be made out of lemon and butter although the colour and taste of the butter was so unnatural that it was certainly not real butter Rather frustrating given that it says it will come in a wine and garlic sauce on the menu Equally terrible was the salt content of this dish so much so that I poured some of the water I was drinking into it so as to make it less saltynnOn top of all of these complaints our waiter was entirely patronising speaking to us in a singsongy voice as if we were all small children nnAs an American who lived in France and as somebody with high expectations of both of these cultures I must advise anyone who values their money to stay away from this most unrespectable establishment The food service and atmosphere were absolutely horrid If I could offer a negative rating I would rate our experience as a at least
