re: Mimi's in River Ridge is closing

When did he arrive? Mimi's had been open about 20 years which indicates, to me, a moderate success and consistency.

Yeah Mimi's has been there at least 20 years. I think he has taken over within the last 2 years, maybe even less. It was always a mom and pop type place, with moderate prices.

the worst thing he could have done was keep the name and jack up the prices(not that the food wasn't worth it).


It's just hard to change the perception of the place when you keep the name. And they see the new prices and probably think "ehh I'm not going there."
