" Visiting Mimi Garden was an unexpected surprise! I came with friends who raved about their dumplings, and I quickly understood why. The xiao long bao was perfect, the skin was thin yet sturdy. We also tried the crispy beef rolls, which were substantial and flavorful. The only downside was the wait time, but it was worth it for the food. I will definitey be making this place a regular dining option. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Mimi Garden for the first time last week and I was blown away! The ambiance is warm and welcoming, making it perfect for a casual night out. The xiao long bao was, without a doubt, the best I’ve ever had outside of China. The soup burst in my mouth with each bite. My partner tried the spicy beef noodles, and they were also delicious. I can confidently say we will be back very soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I had high expectations based on what I’d heard from friends, and for the most part, they were met. The hand-made dumplings were delicious, filled just right. However, I found the service a bit slow during our visit, with some delays in our order. The manager promptly addressed our concerns, so it was nice to see proactive service. This is a place that I would return to for the food, but I hope they improve on speed a bit for future visits. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have mixed feelings about my experience. The dumplings were undoubtedly delicious, as expected. However, the service was a bit lacking when I visited on a busy Saturday night. We waited too long for our drinks and food. The ambiance itself is lovely and adds to the overall experience, so I might give it another try on a weekday. The food quality is very promising, just hope for a better service next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food was simply amazing! I come here regularly, and each visit is better than the last. The design of the interior spotlights the chefs, which adds a nice touch. The menu is extensive, but everything is made with high-quality ingredients. While service could use a little polishing at times, it's nothing that would prevent me from coming back. If you want dumplings, this is the place to go! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit to Mimi Garden and I was very impressed! The food was delicious, especially the fried dumplings that were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Service was great and the staff were super friendly. The only downside was I found it slightly noisy because it was packed. I understand that’s a good sign though! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner at Mimi Garden for the first time and was pleasantly surprised! The variety of dumplings was impressive, and everything tasted so fresh. The service was friendly and I enjoyed the atmosphere. However, the wait for a table was a little longer than I'd hoped for. Interestingly enough, we learned the chef hand-makes every batch of dumplings! Will be back soon. " (*Curated Review*)
