Mimi e Cocotte In Trieste

I've been for both lunch and breakfast a few months apart. My thought is that it is a better place for breakfasts than for the full meal. The price of the dishes at lunch is high but, if it were justified by the right harmony and explosion of flavours, I would justify it and return. This is not the case. In particular, the spaghetti cacio e pepe had an excessively sweet taste and the cream was too liquid. I only half enjoyed tasting the oils as the bread used was not suitable. It has a strong and covering taste and a too airy texture, so the oil tends not to soak into the crumb but to flow beyond (the same bread is used for the couvert...). I was sorry not to be able to fully appreciate the taste of the quality oils. The tartare was okay. My rating for lunch, given the expectations, price and dishes, is insufficient. The situation changes when it comes to breakfast. I ate bacon, eggs and buttered bread for 7 euros. The eggs to recommend, excellent; unfortunately the bacon was "boiled", soft and undercooked instead of crispy and toasted. Nonetheless, the dish was good overall and the price was appropriate. I was told the avocado toast was excellent. Recommended breakfasts

Surprising dishes! Homemade products and flavors that are difficult to find…

I'm not a vegetarian but I really appreciated the various soup options (delicious and almost never found in a restaurant), so much so that I went back with friends for dinner (which they appreciated). The rest is also good, including desserts. Very kind staff (and with me I had such a sensitive friend who even appreciated a slightly lively nearby table, that he went back even just for this miracle 😀!)

Very trendy place. Very well furnished and well managed. Recommended yes, the food was excellent and the dishes were truly made with care.

Super cuddly place ♥️ you eat well and you feel like at home. Advised. Reservation is preferable.

We came for dinner on our last night in Trieste and are so glad we found this amazing place! The food was delicious, the pasta was being hand made in the corner of the restaurant by what looked like the restaurant‘s „resident grandparents“, the wines were fantastic and service lovely. It was so nice we would consider a trip just to come back to this place!

Ambience very good, staff very nice, food unfortunately in our opinion a lot of room for improvement especially for the price. The wines for at least 5 euros per glass are unfortunately below average. It's commendable that you can taste the wine before you decide. As a starter we had small rolls (similar to bruscietta). Straciatella and Alici, taste great, portion size mini, then pasta with Alici (there was a single anchovy on the plate) and tuna. The tuna was ok, but extremely fibrous. All in all ok, but overpriced. The wine unfortunately looks like it comes from a vinegar barrel (tried several)

Great food and experience. Authentic place where you can find home made pasta

They were very kind to reserve the table for us when it was almost full. It is a family-friendly and very pleasant place, with homemade food. Everything was very delicious, the dishes are not very large and the wine by the glass was a little expensive.

Always difficult to find a proper breakfast in Italy according to Balkan rules :) but this place was perfect, interior and food are fabulous! Also it wasn't necessary to book a table upfront even during weekends.
