Great experience from start to finish! The music wasn’t too loud, the lighting wasn’t too dark, and the tables are well spaced allowing an intimate dinner. The Pasta Ala Vodka was fantastic! I’m obsessed with the sauce the calamari is served with and the caramel cheesecake was to die for. You can tell thought and quality go into every dish. I didn’t try my husband’s Shrimp Scampi, but that looked delicious as well. The portion sizes are perfect. Our server was friendly and attentive. The whole staff was friendly and their work ethics flow nicely without the trying too hard vibe. I’m also obsessed with their designer. Trendy and modern without being gaudy. I can’t wait to go back.

My wife and I shared the pan roasted salmon and the shrimp fettucini alfredo entrees, along with a couple of galsses of wine, each - and we shared a piece of carrot cake for dessert. Each serving was outstanding. Lots of attention to detail and fresh, high quality ingredients. The mushroom risotto and the fresh whole artichoke and asparagus were expertly prepared and delicious in taste and texture. And beautiful presentation as well. The carrot cake was served warm and was also exceptional. The service was friendly, prompt and professional. And the restaturant's owner stopped by for a friendly chat as well. The space is also noteworthy and elevates Grayling's restaurant scene to a new level. Hats off to the La Fontaines and their staff for bringing Mimi & Pipi's to life in our town. We'll be back!

It was everything we expected. Pasta ala vodka was perfect, the fettuccine Alfredo got even better as it was eaten. The old fashioned cocktail was spot on. We had appetizer, main course, and dessert all under an hour. We will be back or regulars, great addition to Grayling!

Excellent experience from start to finish! We have been anxiously awaiting the opening of Mimi & Pipi’s in Grayling. Our reservation was for bar seats and were greeted by friendly faces and a warm and inviting atmosphere. Sage was a fantastic server! The most difficult part was deciding what to order since everything sounded so good. We each enjoyed a delicious Old Fashioned with our bruschetta appetizer; a super flavorful choice. Highly recommend both the house and caesar salads, the meatball app, and the lasagna - amazing! The wine choices were perfect and we thoroughly enjoyed everything. Such a treat! Can’t wait to come back.
