Score
High Risk

Mimi Chinese appears in inspection records three times, starting in 2024. The latest inspection on file is from Nov 19, 2025. A high risk rating points to multiple serious findings at the most recent inspection.

There hasn't been much movement either way: counts have stayed near nine violations per visit across recent inspections.

The pattern that stands out is “menu does not identify which items contain raw”, which has been cited two times.

That's lower than the typical Miami Beach restaurant, which scores around 69. There are enough flags in the record to merit a second thought.
