    If you order the stuffed lobster, make sure you bring your appetite!!! It was very good but very large and worth the money. Crab dip is also delicious, and service was outstanding

    The hostess seated right away although we were early for our reservation. Bubbles was a very friendly waitress. Food was tasty but the portion seemed a bit on the smaller end for the prices we paid.

    We ate on the patio with a beautiful view of the bay, breeze off the water and wave crashing below us. Food was really good and the staff very friendly.

    We thoroughly enjoyed dinner at Mim’s while vacationing on St.Thomas. The staff was so warm and welcoming, we felt like we were at an Auntie’s house for dinner (with a table on an oceanfront patio). The food was delish and service extremely warm and friendly. Absolutely delightful experience!
