Critic's Review

Mimi's is right across the street from Gino's Market, so I stopped in when I was in the neighborhood. It's a pretty big building; I was wondering if it would be as unexpectedly big as Gino's. They have their own parking lot and an Italian themed entrance.

Mimi's Ravioli Entrance

Inside, the place is small and cramped, with a small busting counter and a few isles loaded with product. They also sell fresh Mozzarella and some bakery items here as well.

Mimi's Counter

The store has a lot of dried pasta product, many of which you can get elsewhere or across the street. "Italian" brand cans. Not sure why I'd come here to buy cans of stuff or dried pasta.

Isle at Mimi's

They have one freezer case filled with tortellini, something I like but don't eat much these days. I almost bought some, but since they were frozen, I wondered if it was worth it. I can get fresh ones at the supermarket as well as frozen ones.

I also didn't know how much they cost, which was another deterrent. On the other side there's a freezer case with stacks of ravioli. Again, frozen. Why am I coming to a ravioli store to buy frozen ravioli?

They had some refrigerated ravioli also, but I didn't feel like waiting. I'm not big on ravioli. Reminds me of school cafeteria food. Or Chef Boyardi. I'm sure this was better, but it's not usually what I'm having.

Conclusion

I wasn't terribly impressed with Mimi's. Too much canned and frozen stuff to make it worth the trip. Most of the people were at the counter, so i guess all of the good stuff is behind the counter. I didn't see any signs or way for me to know what it was without having to wait and ask a lot of questions. I didn't have time for that.
