About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for groups
  • Great for creative cocktails
Located on the outskirts of Toronto’s vibrant Yorkville neighbourhood, the MIMI story begins with memories of the past. Loud conversation over plates of steaming noodles. The rush of servers moving quickly about in starched white dress shirts and pressed black bow ties. Darkly lit nooks with deep shades of red. The clanking of cutlery as cocktails are shaken swiftly in the background. A fragrant scent of Sichuan peppercorns toasting in the wok. Moments of celebration and togetherness over both new and familiar food. MIMI Chinese offers a place of wonder that brings back a taste of the past.

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: Make your way to the black-and-red scene inside MIMI, where the dining room glows with neon lights and velvet booths. At this upscale Chinese spot, the belt noodles run four feet long, the chicken wings get stuffed with sticky rice, and cocktails come in panda-shaped mugs. No wonder it ranks on Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants list.

    I have been to Mimi about 10 times and every meal has been a 10/10! Unfortunately, we didn’t love the Father’s Day prix fixe mains. Wished we had ordered off the regular menu :( Will know for next time!

    We felt that the ambiance was nice but really found that everything was seasoned with chili oil instead of developed flavours. We did the tasting menu, and the menu felt unbalanced. It started with a really nice broth, but then there was a wonton in chili oil, chilis on the turnip cake, a delicious lamb broth, with the seasoning: chili oil. The mawpow tofu also very spicy. We gave feedback and the staff got a bit defensive. We felt that if there was going to be spice in each course we should have been told or the menu could have been explained before we ordered so we knew what we were getting into. (we probably would have ordered other things). Overall, fine but we probably won’t go back.

    Great time had by all . Unique flavours with incredible presentation. I was a little sceptical with the menu. Having a nut and shellfish allergy was a concern going in But Everything was delicious and they were fantastic on keeping everything safe !
