WHO WE ARE

Located on the outskirts of Yorkville in midtown Toronto, MIMI’s story begins with nostalgic memories. Deep shades of red and penny filled Koi ponds. The rush of expert servers moving theatrically through the room in starched white dress shirts and pressed black bow ties. The clanking of cutlery coupled with cocktails being shaken vigorously in the background and the scent of fragrant Sichuan peppercorn toasting in the wok. Our restaurant experience aims to pay homage to the rich and deeply rooted history of Chinese food and beverage culture.
We hope to offer a place that brings back a taste of the past for those that had the joy of sharing these special experiences in the same way we did. And a place to form new memories to one day look back on with the same nostalgic magic we hold so dearly in our hearts.
MIMI’s driving force is to have people leave our restaurant as excited about Chinese food culture as we are. We hope to get there through our regionally focused menu alongside our top-quality service, and premium beverage program.
