Restaurants near Callens Corner Shopping Center

I hadn't been to Seasons 52 for about a year, but this experience was just as good as it ever was. It absolutely is necessary to have a reservation on a Saturday night, so I was glad I used Open Table. We were seated within minutes, whereas walk-ins were told it could be up to two hours. We received excellent service. I had the Mule for a cocktail. We started with a flatbread, always a good appetizer. I also enjoyed the beet salad and the salmon for an entree. For dessert, I had a peanut butter parfait. All delicious.

Such a wonderful experience! I had the pleasure of bringing my mom and sister to the 5 course vegan tasting with a tea pairing and dessert. The artistry and storytelling in each dish was beautifully conveyed. The balance and fusion of different cultures was explored in each tasting. I appreciated the great service and explanation of each dish from our servers. We would definitely come again.

We went for my dad’s birthday. He a meat-and-potatoes guy, he THOROUGHLY enjoyed his fish. It was the first time seeing him devour his lunch. Ralph, our server, treated us very well, often catering to my parents’ needs. My mom even told him that she wants to bring her siblings next theme they’re in town.  Much thanks!

The Thanksgiving Day dinner was excellent. It was crowded and service was very busy. My only complaint is with OpenTable. When I went onto the Mimi's website to make the reservation, it directed me to use the app. It appeared to work seamlessly. I received a request through OpenTable, both through text and email, to confirm my reservation, which I did. However, when I showed up at the Mimi's Restaurant, they did not have my reservation. Apparently there were many others who used OpenTable, and the restaurant did not have their reservations. This appeared to be an issue between OpenTable and Mimi's. Obviously on one of the busiest days of the year, it caused chaos. There was already a long list of walk-ins that the employees were attempting to accommodate, only to have to add those who had OpenTable reservations that did not go through. There were many angry people who simply left the restaurant not willing to wait behind all of the walk-ins. Thanks to the employees, who scrambled to find us a table, we had to wait but not a very long time. I give five stars to Mimi's and zero stars to OpenTable who needs to fix their system. Will not use them again.

This might be my favorite place to dine for a fun, casual, and delicious meal! We love taking people for their first yakitori experience because it’s so unique. As usual, everything was cooked and seasoned perfectly and our guests were delighted. I highly recommend the pork belly wrapped shiso basil. We all enjoyed it so much that I ordered it twice!
