What Name Schumm doesn't like about Mimo Restaurant & Lounge:
My husband and I went for dinner. It took over 20 mins to get a aperitif (red dubonet) and a beer. They didn't know what the dubonet was although it is just poured into a glass...we left before we could order food. I wanted to try the food! My husband's beer didn't even come until they eventually figured out that they had to ask me about the other drink. It seemed that they were busy serving another room in the back...

read moreMimo is a charming Portuguese restaurant that offers a unique dining experience. Situated in an unassuming location, this family-run establishment has a cozy atmosphere with a rustic Portuguese-themed decor. While some diners have mentioned slow service and minor issues with food quality on certain nights, the overall consensus seems to be positive. The standout dishes include the flavorful Paella, the delicious grilled squid, and the mouthwatering seafood platter. Prices are on the higher side, but the generous portions and fresh ingredients make it worthwhile. With a warm ambiance and friendly service, Mimo is a hidden gem that is definitely worth a visit for those looking to enjoy traditional Portuguese cuisine in Calgary.
