"This is the worst meal I might ever have had, partly my fault for ordering something I didnt like but the service was appalling. The restaurant was nowhere near full but we still waited an hour for our meal, when it arrived my partners meal was ruined as her sides were wrong even though the waitress confirmed twice what she wanted, salad and potato wedges whereas what she got was rice which she shouldnt eat. As it had taken an hour we didnt send it back and the waitress had disappeared before we could complain anyhow. I had the peppered goat soup which apparently is a delicacy so £15 and the waitress did ask if I wanted it spicy, when it came it was the spiciest thing I 've ever eaten. That I could have coped with possibly but it also was just offal and bits of lung and fat. I counted the actual bits of proper meat and there were 3 so £5 each as all of the other meat was inedible. There was also an issue early on where I was asked if I wanted ice in my drink, I said yes and sadly didnt get any until we managed to catch the waitress eye about 20 minutes later. I wouldnt have mentioned this apart from it just added to the lack of service. At no time were we asked if we were happy, if we enjoyed the meal or if we wanted anything else. Once we 'd finished what we could eat I went and asked for the bill paid immediately and we will never go again."

I ordered goat curry. It was a small dish, tasted old, with 6 pieces of meat . 4 of them were bones, the sauce was tasteless, fat pieces, thick, tasted horrible. I felt bad after. Plantains were soggy and cold. Lots of rice served. Only coleslaw was ok.

We have today experienced a very bad service from this restaurant. We had to wait and wait for the food to arrive, to our Caribbean lunch club, then when it eventually arrives, it was lukewarm and did not have what was ordered, so MIMI you have had my first and last lunchtime club order from me.

Extensive menu with lots of wonderful dishes to treat one's taste buds. We were pleasantly surprised by the choice of available alcoholic beverages. The owners/hosts were warm and friendly and took time to go through explanations of our curiosity about some of the dishes. Strongly recommend a visit, we certainly will. View menu

This restaurant is a hidden gem! The pounded yam and ogbono soup were absolutely delicious. The flavors were rich and authentic, and the taste was truly awesome. The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff added to the overall dining experience. I highly recommend trying this restaurant if you 're in the mood for some flavorful African cuisine!

Ok so the reason I’m giving 2 stars instead of 0. My husband eats this african food and he often likes it from mimis. Only a few timed he hasn’t been happy. But I am vegetarian. I ordered the only vegetarian thing which is plantain and salad. On the menu the salad sounds really nice. (We got home delivery)... the plantain was nice yes. Can’t really go wrong with plantain. Thought u couldn’t go wrong with salad, I was wrong. There was frozen veg which was steamed but still hard n semi frozen. The cucumber was steamed also. Soggy and see through. Cucumber should be cold and hard. And only 1 slice of tomato. How disappointing. To think I fed my kids earlier and waited for them to go sleep so I...

"WOW! What can we say!? Chris Katie catered lunch at our beautiful outdoor wedding at Moonacre, Sturminster Marshall. They had a fantastic layout and lots of menu options available several different burgers, wieners fries! They absolutely smashed the service and excelled at feeding a few more than expected too! They made us a gorgeous little personalised menu also which we thought was such a nice touch! Everyone couldn’t stop talking about how amazing their food was even those who would never normally consider vegan options were blown away at how great everything tasted! They managed to positively influence even the most stubborn meat eaters of our guests to realise that they don’t need to miss out on flavour when choosing vegan options! That’s a huge win in our eyes! A couple of people even said it was the first ever vegan food they’d tried and they couldn’t get over how amazing it was! We told our guests about the Mighty Wieners restaurant in Bournemouth and will be bringing people back for more as they couldn’t wait to try more options! The day was such a huge success and Chris Katie did such an incredible job! We can’t recommend them enough, for food at their restaurant and wedding events catering! Vegetarian options: Excellent vegetarian and vegan options! Dietary restrictions: Served gluten free options! Kid friendliness: Excellent service friendly, warm and when above and beyond! Wheelchair accessibility: Perfect for full accessibility!"
