Mimi's

Fantastic Italian joint on the east side! Reasonable prices, and the food is always spot on! Piano guy at the door is a hoot!

An incredible good time! Beautiful people. Friendly atmosphere. Great music. A must visit when you're in NYC.

Good comfort food, reasonable prices. Server recommended spaghetti and meatballs and it was good. Not spectacular, but good food. Service was quick.

A new tradition of mine, Mimi's is a treat for its entertainment. The star is Chicken Delicious, whose show includes fantastic piano playing, costumes, and singalongs. Ask, and you may be granted the microphone. (You may need to call ahead to make sure he's On for the night you go.) Tell him where you're from and he'll accommodate you with a song about it.

For dinner I recommend the calamari or lasagna, and the house wines are very good, but the half bottle or red is my choice.

The staff is friendly and welcoming. Be sure to say Hi to Dominic, Laurie, and John. Such great folks, truly. You will be recognized when you return and soon be a regular.

I thought everything was very good. Music, food and vibe. We had the shrimp scampi (very good) and the pasta w clam sauce (i felt there could have been more clams in there). The wine was nice too. I would come back to try other dishes.
