We were out and about the other evening shopping for books, and just hanging out around the Natomas area. We figured it was getting to be dinner time, and rather than worry about cooking, we’d just go across the parking lot to the Mimi’s Cafe at 3511 North Freeway Blvd, in North Natomas.

We were seated right away, and the girls got to use booster seats again. Our server came right away and took our drink order. He came back within a couple of minutes with our drinks and took our meal order. It was very fast service that evening! We were eating our meals within 20 minutes or so. The food was awesome! I ordered a Pan Seared Chicken Fettuccine, and it was delicious. We ordered Macaroni & Cheese and a Grilled Cheese Sandwich for the girls to share. They actually did quite well! When we were told our server we needed boxes for our leftovers, he brought out little treats for the girls. They were little “dirt cups” as he called them… They were cups with chocolate pudding, crushed oreos, and 2 gummy worms. The girls were so excited… and devoured the pudding. They didn’t know what to make of the gummy worms, so Mommy got to enjoy those…

All in all.. It was a very pleasant experience. The atmosphere was very nice… You could go dressed casually, as we did, or you could dress up a bit. The staff was friendly, and took care of us. I’d definitely recommend it for anyone with families!
