One of the best Italian restaurants in town, hands down! They pit a ton of money into their dining room, patio, and landscaping, and it shows! Fantastic food as always.No better combo of atmosphere and food quality in the area. If you want authentic Italian, come to Mimmos! I get delivery and its still off the chain. Pricy, but well worth it!Great staff/owners, too. Super friendly. Def recommended!

Perfectly fresh salad, you get a lot of food on your plate. Hot, fresh, and tasty. Clean place. Outside area makes you feel like you are on vacation. Big beautiful place. Gluten free options and fresh made pasta! View of the Pagoda as well. Mimmo is a nice honest guy! Hard working crew there as well. Runs a nice place.

Ordered Lobster Ravioli for takeout and was told it was going to take 25 minutes. Took about an hour an 10 minutes to get my food. Asked for a refund and the manager looked in the back to find my order bagged and that it had been sitting there. To remedy the situation he offered me a free dessert and I accepted. Just wish the people at the front would check to see if peoples food is ready instead of chatting. And the Lobster Ravioli was ok. Mostly just Ricotta filling but there is a tiny bit of real lobster in there. Also the clam chowder was bad. It had no potatoes, didnt taste right, and was very thin. To the owner: That was not a lie you even said to me it was already bagged up when you went to the kitchen and you showed it to me. Which means it was prepared, sat there, then served. Thanks for the Cannoli.

First time there. Ordered take out so cant really rate the food. The appearance (inside & outside) had me sold two steps out the car. Im not one for fine dining, so without much to relate too I will say it was EASILY the nicest restaurant Ive ever been in. Unlike basically every other place out there right now, they are staffed proper if anything it looked overstaffed, so thumbs up to management. A little pricey but Im a quality over quantity type person, so I say that to say the little extra $ was worth it. Give it a shot

Food was plentiful, we were a group of about 25 so service was slow but they are short handed like everyone else. Overall I gave them a 5 for the efforts they made bringing food out (everything was still warm) and keeping drinks coming.

Mimmos Italian Restaurant and Pizzeria is a great place to go if college students are looking for a home-style meal. Many college students know that the cafeteria can be really gross some nights. Mimmos offers a variety of choices that are guaranteed to make you feel at home. The family-owned restaurant offers fantastic service that makes you feel as if you are a part of the family. The restaurant is warm and cozy. There is also a great patio that offers a unique experience. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Love this place my significant other loves loves the Italian wedding soup. She says its the best anywhere in the area. I personally love the cheese steaks I order a large cheese steak with mushrooms and cheese no sauce with extra bacon yum to die for. Most everything Ive ordered was good. The service was good as well the prices went up a little after the remodel but still not bad.

My first visit here in the pouring rain. Met a friend for a quick lunch. Had a sausage sub & French fries. Was very good, a little spicy, just the way I like it. The service was quick & very friendly. I will be back for a full meal in the future. The atmosphere is warm & inviting.I know I will give them 5 stars after my next visit.

Wonderful outdoor dining patio. Very pleasant atmosphere and servers were very attentive. Food portion size was petite, no leftovers to take home but also at the same time did not leave hungry. So Id say it was just right. Food was delicious and no complaints on flavor from any in partyOnly complaint is non soda, non alchoholic beverage choices were limited. Only had tropical fruit punch as an option or water.

Mimmos Italian Restaurant & Pizzeria provided fantastic service to my date and I this past weekend. We were looking for a classy, well maintained, and of course tasty place to sit down for dinner, and Mimmos fit perfectly into our view. The staff was welcoming and took good care of us while serving. I noticed that the restaurant was also a fantastic place for family dining. Highly recommend to anyone who loves great food!

This is a class restaurant. The bartender is very talented and makes incredible drinks. The servers are all very friendly and competent, and the food is fantastic, not to mention the portions! The atmosphere and music selection is on point, and the patio/garden is gorgeous. I highly recommend Mimmo’s Italian Restaurant and Pizzeria.

Very good food in a nicely renovated restaurant. Years ago I remember Mimmos and was pleasantly surprised at how the expansive new grounds make a good dining experience. The chicken masala was garlicky and delicious. The plate was large and filling and plenty of fresh mushrooms onboard. Garden salad was good with the addition of fresh mozzarella and light croutons added to it. Starting with the calamari as an appetizer, sauce was good, a bit acidy but fared well with the ocean dwelling rings. The calamari consisted of only rings and no tentacles, for those that may need that information, and was cooked well and not rubbery. Although I prefer a bit more crunch to my breading, the taste and consistency made up for that. 2 large chicken portions smothered in masala with pasta hidden underneath presented well and tasted very good. Accompanied with lite rolls and butter, the rolls had an almost croissant consistency which was a pleasant surprise. I also sampled their ravioli which was served with shrimp, chicken, red peppers and artichoke. They were cooked well and not overdone, the sauce was creamy and satisfying.The booths are large and accommodating as well as a friendly staff. There is a take out pizzeria side that I did not try on this visit. Grounds were clean and staffed well. Waitress was accommodating and asked how the meal was and if we needed anything else several times. Menu is large and a full bar with specials available. Family friendly with lots of room and a banquet room in the back. I will admit the music that was playing wasnt overly loud but I could hear a somewhat dreary cluster of old Christmas tunes. Normally I tune most of that out but the selection was relatively dreary for the time I was there.Great food, good service in an easy to get around, nice looking restaurant, recomended.

Mimmos is the best spot in the area! The patio is great and the overall environment is sensational! Highly recommend to anyone in the area or visiting! Best food in Berks county and amazing staff and service with great prices and deals!

Review №36

Food was great but prices high for pasta meal. This restaurant was open for takeout and delivery during the pandemic and since their not paying for a full staff yet ( hiring sign was up) they didnt have a reason to raise their prices so much on an abridged menu. Full menu is not advertised even though its available. They want to push the higher priced items.

Love this place went in a month or two ago and I asked for some focaccia bread and the owner took it upon him self to go out of the way and had it made for our whole table of 10 people. Was also there just last week food was amazing like always and felt bad for the waitress’s and bartender/waitress, drinks took a lil longer then normal, but who cares when your eating outside in a beautiful lush seating area with a pond. The food came out fast and hot…. SO THANK YOU!!! To the waitress’s working thru the grind trying to keep everyone happy

Dined in and had a great experience. All staff was masked properly and very helpful. Our server, Emily, was wonderful. Very sweet and wonderful to talk to. We ordered the mozzarella fritta and scallops in lemon butter for appetizers. Both were delicious. Hubby had gluten free shells and I had gnocchi. Their marinara is flavorful and fresh. Overall, a great experience and we will be sure to dine there again.

Mimmos is a new favorite date night spot for my husband and I! The servers have been super friendly each time we go, and the food is authentic and very good. My husband also enjoys that they have a nice variety of beers on tap.The eggplant and chicken parmigiana have been our favorites so far. We also enjoyed the spinach, artichoke, and crab dip they had for a special once. Also do yourself a favor and order the cannoli for your dessert!

Review №64

Food was horrible. Flounder tasted like a fish tank. Mashed potatoes tasted horrible. Chicken parm was a freezer patty with Ragu sauce. Save your money and eat at the Dairy Queen you’ll have a better meal. After sending the flounder dish back the manager was making it seem like we were the problem when her food was the problem. The stuffed mushrooms were not edible had to try and cut them with a steak knife. Nice atmosphere and service was decent. Left the spending enough to have a nice delicious dinner somewhere else but ended up having to spend more a fast food joint because the food was horrible

I have been to Mimmo’s Restaurant 4 times. Once was a home run, since then each time was a strike. Second visit - my guest ordered lobster ravioli. The ravioli edges were hard and the amount of lobster was minuscule. Third visit - My husband ordered shrimp scampi. The sauce was w/o taste and the consistency of water. I ordered chicken marsala. It was not terrible but was unlike any marsala I have ever had. I ordered a Caesar salad and I was given a regular dinner salad with Caesar’s dressing. Fourth visit - my guest ordered lasagne. The lasagne was bland and very salty, as if the chief kept adding salt to increase the favor. The cost for a piece of lasagne was $19. I so wanted to love this restaurant as all the servers have been great unfortunately we will not be going back as we eat out Bc of the food and not for personalities.

Review №78

Pleasant, low-light interior of warm colors. Staff is very pleasant - service with a smile and a sir. The interactions between some of the patrons and staff would indicate there are some regulars. I came in at 11:30 and was seated within 2 minutes. I ordered coffee, the Mozzarella Fritti and a Margherita pizza with ricotta cheese. Coffee was fine, if not quite as hot as I like (I like it very hot) and came with a glass of ice water with lemon. The Mozzarella Fritti was obviously okay. Without the tomato sauce there was a slight fishiness that I assume came from breading fish in same breading mix. The pizza was a little dry, but flavor was fine. Overall the food was underwhelming but the ambiance was very pleasant. I would return for a salad and pasta meal as that is what the regulars all ordered.

Very comfortable place with a big menu. It got me scared a little bit and the beginning but somehow they managed to get fresh food, at least it tasted that way. There are a lot of options to choose from; for both meat lovers and vegetarians. I didnt find it pricey at all and you get a lot of food in your plate. The presentation of the plate could be better, But it is a very decent place!
