"Mimi's" is a special Restaurant. It's not obvious when you enter as the neighboring bar can be crowded especially during 'Apres-Ski' time and the decor does not wow the visitor. However, as soon as you receive the Menu and interact with the staff, a guest knows they are in for a culinary treat. My wife and I went with the 4 Course Tasting Menu designed by Chef Shimamoto. It was brilliant, we also outsourced our wine selection to the Sommelier who charged us an additional Y4000 for his wine-pairing - I strongly recommend you follow his lead and embrace the pairing.We started with marinated Shinshu Salmon, then moved to a lobster pasta which was bravely combined with a glass of red given the yummy spicy tomato sauce. The main or 'entree' course was a quite brilliant charcoal grilled Wagyu steak which was served with a red wine sauce and roasted seasonal vegetables.Both desert options which we shared were excellent - Tiramisu or berry Pavlova. Ingredients are locally sourced and the presentation of each dish was worthy of a prize for at least my wife's iPhone photo collection. Our Server (Mel) was charming and knowledgeable as were all the staff.Traditionally many come to Hakuba to ski, frankly, this restaurant is worth the trip. Chef Kazu deserves a Michelin star and many other awards. Quite brilliant, perhaps the best meal I have every had in Japan (I have lived in Japan over 11 years). It is also worth nothing that the kids' menu was lovely also with similar care for all their dishes.OH MY GOD, what a review. We only want to say thank you for all your compliments. All these amazing words for Mel, for Sergio (our Sommelier), for our chef Kazu and of course for all the Mimi's team are the best reward ever. Actually you have described us as the " Cinderella " of restaurant business. We are flattered by the comparison. We are happy to see that our efforts are appreciated by our customers. I hope to see you again soon and to be able to excite you again. Alberto Isoppi and Mimi's team.

A house restaurant across the street from Hotel Tokyu, we walked over for a 6:30 dinner. Service was personal, timely and gracious. No more than 7 tables from what I could tell. A lovely salmon sashimi appetizer followed by chicken in creamy sauce- was perfect comfort food on a cold night. Simple but thoughtful wine list, and other beverages available. In my opinion the experience would not be good for group of more than 5 or 6 . The chef owner came to our table to check with us about our experience. The best dining experience I had in Hakuba-

This quaint little restaurant serves nothing but the best. Seven of us dined there and we all raved how fabulous our meals were. Staff were very friendly. Definitely worth visiting while at Hakuba.
