I had heard about this place a long time ago but never had the chance to try it because I was never on that side of town, but got to yesterday. I knew from the photos it would be good, but y’all I didn’t realize it’d be this good. I went to bed thinking about these ribs. Growing up in SC we had ribs for almost every holiday but these are the best I’ve had. Also the portions are huge and you just don’t ever expect that from restaurants anymore in this day. The sides were just as good as the ribs. I’d commit a crime for that mac and cheese. I ended up ordering more to take back home to my boyfriend because I already knew I wasn’t going to be willing to share my leftovers and he ate every single bit of his. Will absolutely be coming back the next chance I get.

I’m a little late posting this. We had to make a quick trip to Lexington this past Wednesday. We wanted some good home cooking and decided to stop in at Mi Mi’s. It was amazing!! Portions were abundant. The staff, ALL welcoming and made sure we’re had what we needed. Its clean. And everyone is welcomed. There was a lady who drove from the other side of town to get a plate to go. If you have a chance check them out. And yes that’s hot water cornbread!
I had the fried pork chops that came with two sides and cornbread. I chose green beans and cabbage. My wife had a veggie plate. Which you can choose 3- 4 side items. She had greens, Mac n cheese, and mashed potatoes. Its cafeteria style so I’m assuming what is on the bar is what is being sold for the day. They did have meatloaf and chicken that day also.
The amount of food was worth the price. The two of us ate for around $30. I will definitely be going back.

I had the vegetable plate with hot water corn bread it was delicious. This place is amazing. In town from Tennessee. Anyone looking for good food this is the place to eat at. Southern style cooking. You don’t get this in Tennessee that’s for sure. Will go back for sure. This is a very professional place to eat at. Everyone one here is amazing. Make sure if your in Lexington Kentucky you look them up.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Hidden Gem Alert!
If you judge this place by the outside, you might not realize the incredible food waiting inside. Mimi’s Southern Style Cooking is a very unassuming little spot, and honestly, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. But after seeing so many good reviews, we decided to give it a try — and I’m so glad we did!
When we walked in, we checked out the day’s options on the steam table. The setup is simple: choose an entrée, two sides, and cornbread. Classic Southern comfort food done right.
Ms. Jessica was absolutely wonderful and helped us make our selections. After sitting down, we quickly realized we were about to have one of the best meals we’ve had in a long time. Every bite was bursting with flavor! And the sides… wow. They were so good I honestly could have just eaten those alone. The greens were hands down the best greens I have ever had in my life.
Ms. Jessica checked on us a couple of times while we were eating, and she just radiates sunshine. You can tell there’s real heart behind this place. She also mentioned her daughter has another restaurant downtown near the University of Kentucky, which we’ll definitely have to check out next.
I absolutely loved this place and highly recommend it if you’re looking for authentic Southern cooking and warm, genuine hospitality. We will definitely be back!

Fancy dinner plates, supper forks versus salad forks, glass drinkware, classic melodies playing in the background… None of that matters if the food isn’t good, especially if the price matches the ambiance. Now *this* is what I call good eatin’. Down home, southern style, full of hospitality – Mimi’s Southern Style cooking did NOT disappoint! You walk in and they have a hot bar front and center with all the good food they offer. We got our food for dine in. Their portion size was unexpected and definitely big enough. Husband got two fried porkchops (so flavorful and juicy), with cornbread (not necessarily as sweet as we like, but better than most restaurant cornbread), green beans (delicious), macaroni and cheese (yummy) and mashed potatoes (if these weren’t homemade, they definitely tasted like they were). I ordered the shrimp alfredo, which was so good and not dry in the least. It had a hint of a spicy kick, but it was barely there. I got the same sides he chose. Neither of us could finish our food! I told the employees that I didn’t want to stop eating, but I couldn’t possibly eat any more, so I grabbed a box to take the rest home with me. Then my husband asked for another order of the mashed potatoes and green beans to go, along with an order of their collared greens. We both left full, satisfied, and even looking forward to eating more for supper later! Also, the price was more than fair and absolutely worth it. This was our first time visiting and it definitely won’t be our last. If you’re ever in the area, we recommend you absolutely give them a try!

Pork chops were fresh, but the sides were kinda warm, and (cold)mash potatoes were leftovers! But over all the food was good. The service was awesome, and the building was clean. I think they needed a menu up saying how much everything is and what they are serving. (Just my opinion)

I went to Mimi’s for the first time a couple of weeks ago. The service was super friendly and they had a variety of main dish and side options. Sometimes when food is in a buffet setting it gets cold but our dishes were hot and fresh. We had smothered porkchop and the gravy was nice and thick. I LOVED the cornbread. I am not the only one because while we were there a lady came in and ordered a dozen. They had a steady stream of people coming in and the staff worked quick to keep up.

Absolutely DELICIOUS! I’ve made a point to visit Mimi’s every time I’m in Lexington! My dad and I discovered this spot in 2017 and it still, to this day, is the best catfish I’ve ever had. Light and flaky with just a touch of crispy, well-seasoned batter. It melts in your mouth and is the best catfish you’ll find outside of New Orleans. The staff is friendly and every side item is delicious. My favorite side by far is the greens, but you can’t go wrong with anything you choose! Definitely make a stop for that feel-good food and DON’T FORGET TO BRING CASH!!!

Needed a quick and big dinner after spending the day in Mammoth Cave National Park and driving to Lexington. The food here was great in quantity – took a while to get ready – the spaghetti was insanely oily. I had the mac and cheese, and the fried chicken as well. The place didn’t have a menu, and when I walked in, the girl started asking me what I would like, so I pointed to one salmon roll, and then she said I could only have two of them. Then, she wouldn’t give me spaghetti alongside, so we just chucked that order, and I waited for the guy to come around and help me out – definitely not a smoothly operating place. They have a huge hall and a restroom at the end of it.

Was looking for home cooked meals around Lexington . Found this amazing place , just off of New Circle Rd .
When we arrived , we were immediately greeted , with a smile !
We did ask , many questions , and held up the line for a few minutes , which the young lady , accepted graciously !
Now to talk about the food …..I had the mushroom , creamed chicken , a 10 , the green beans , a 10 , and the cornbread , was definitely 100 % perfect !!!
I believe , I could have just eaten the cornbread all day !!!
I would highly recommend this , awesome place !
