I came across Mimi's on Yelp and there reviews were great so I took my wedding rings to have a diamond replaced and both cleaned. They are very reasonable and the work was great! It was ready exactly when they said it would be. I will definitely be back

What an amazing experience! I brought my original engagement ring with an idea to reset my diamond. After listening to my idea, David and his team brought it to life. I couldn't be happier with my amazing new ring. Thank you!

I am pleased to give high marks regarding my experience with David, the current owner. David is knowledgeable, professional, and most importantly, fair and trustworthy. I felt comfortable with entrusting David with my timepiece despite being thousands of miles away. David has my business and I highly recommend this business to anyone.

For our 20th wedding anniversary, David and his staff made a beautiful diamond ring for my wife. They also reset the original engagement ring into a stunning pendant. Over the next decade, we have purchased watches and other items from them. They are the only jeweler we use even though we are over 2,500 miles apart. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Mimi's.

My son's girlfriend was visiting and our puppy jumped up and bit her gold bracelet and of course the bracelet broke. I am not familiar with jewelry repair so I asked my aunt if she knew of any reputable jewelry stores. My aunt lives in Fountain Valley and she immediately recommended Mimi's Jewelry. She said they have been in business for a long time so I should try contacting them. I went on Yelp and saw the great reviews. I decided to message them to ask what the cost of soldering the bracelet would be. I received a reply from David who is the owner of the business and he responded

Well, 203 reviews, all 5 star. Honestly I don't even know why I am writing this LOL! I have been trusting Mimi's for some odd small resizing and repairs for the last ten years or so. I love that this is a family run family owned business and the team is still here for so long. That kind of employee tenure says a lot. The storefront is beautiful and easily accessible, and the store is well-lit and inviting with a dazzling display of items which range from the dainty to the majestic. So there's something for everyone. But I moved out of California to Idaho and I found my way back

I found David via Instagram and asked him to help me create a unique engagement ring for my (now) fiancée. I didn't have a ton of specifics for him, other than telling him she loved sapphires (and sharing a few rings that had caught her eye).
David was absolutely incredible to work with; he found a sapphire that was EXACTLY what I was searching for and designed an amazing and unique setting. As soon as I saw it, I could picture it on her finger.
He kept me updated regularly via email, and had it out to me even sooner than his original estimate. The end product was nothing short of stunning.

This place is just awesome. I went last Saturday and talked to Mimi about making a ring for my husband and doing some work on my wedding ring. They did an amazing job on both rings. Prices were very reasonable and the quality of the work was outstanding. Everyone who works there is helpful and nice.

I have debated for years about posting a review about this. It still bothers me to this day. I bought a men's gold ring from the original owner, Mimi. She was very kind and personable with my kid. I later noticed an imperfection in one of the diamonds to which she simply said well its not that high of a quality. I came back and got an ok deal on an 18k yellow gold band, then I met Her son, David. He was very polite and professional. We then started talking about watches and he observed my Tudor watch I was wearing. Still Unsatisfied with my diamond quality, He mentioned that he also buys watches

There really aren't enough good things to say about Mimi's Jewelry. I live 2,000 miles away and it still feels like Dave is my local, personal jeweler.
I heard he did great work from a number of people I trust, so when I realized I wanted to ask my girlfriend to marry me I sent him a quick email with my budget and a few things I was looking for in a ring to see what he could do for me. He was very quick to respond, and over the course of a few weeks and a lot of emails he turned my original vague inquiry into a rendering that was exactly what I was looking for. Once I was comfortable with the

David was super helpful with resizing my fiancée's ring. Contacted him on yelp and responded very quick, had an appointment, and finished the ring within 3 hours (usually people ask for a couple of days) with his very reasonable pricing. Before leaving, I asked if I could check the stone under the microscope and he let me. Thank you, David! I highly recommend this Jewelry.

The owner gentleman was rude and condescending. I simply asked a few questions, and some of the answers I got in regards to Gold/Silver were not true and very incorrect. The marking of 750 is the European marking for 18k gold! It has nothing to do with Sterling Silver! I actually ended up going to a Jewelry Shop across the street, and was very satisfied!

Wonderful customer service. Had my wedding ring repaired. My 33 year old ring looks brand sparkling new-can't stop looking at it! Mimis also re created my moms wedding ring after melting it down & using her original diamonds-more beautiful than I could ever have imagined! Highly recommend them. Will bring all my jewelry needs to Mimis.

David and his staff at Mimi’s were an absolute pleasure to deal with. David was very patient with me as we went the process of putting together a ring for my wife’s Birthday present. And to top it off we don’t even live in the same area so the process was done long distance!

I'm so pleased with the customer service and overall results from Mimi's Jewelry! I was referred to Mimi's by my jeweler out in PA; my husband got my wedding set from her but we live in Orange County. I needed to get my wedding set professionally cleaned and I hoped Jen could point me in the right direction. I'm so happy she did! David and his team are absolutely wonderful! They were kind, patient, and so helpful! My wedding set looks brand new again!

I am also interested in making a jewelry purchase soon and Mimi's will be my first (and hopefully only) stop. Thank you

Wow! What a gem of a place to find right around the corner from us. They got us exactly what we wanted and didn't price gouge us at all. I'm in love with the ring. They got me the exact setting I wanted and set the moissanite stone so perfectly it sparkles even in the worst light. It honestly feels magical and I find myself staring at it all the time! Not only that but they got the ring to us in record time so we could have it for the engagement AND offered to help my fiance by faking that it "wasn't going to be ready on time" so I could be surprised. This business cares

We went to visit David for our engagement and wedding bands and both my husband and I are blown away with the professionalism and quality with David and Mimi's. My fiancé had my engagement band custom made and it was exactly what I wanted. I cannot recommend Mimi's enough and can't wait to go back for more jewelry.

They did a beautiful job taking 3 very different rings and combining into one beautiful, delicate ring. Wonderful service, absolutely worked with us until we found the design we liked.

I reached out to Mimi's via Yelp. I needed my girlfriends ring repaired and cleaned. I was hoping for it to be done before the 14th knowing well that it was highly unlikely. However, they achieved this and more by having it fixed and cleaned incredibly well on the 13th.
I really appreciate the effort and care put into the ring.
They were informative and professional with a welcoming atmosphere. I will definitely be returning for all my jewelry needs.

Pictures are before and after.

Great jewelry store! I came in for a resizing. It was done in about a week and the work was great. They texted me with updates on my order, nice added service. Good selection from what I saw in there. Will definitely check it next time I'm shopping for jewelry!

We got our ring appraised here and David was not only professional but also personal and knowledgeable. Appears to be really honest which is critical in any business but especially in the jewelry business when things and value could be more subjective.

He also does a lot for the community. I always see him volunteer or involved with school events. If you have any jewelry needs then this is your place.

Through the generations in my family, a beautiful black onyx and diamond ring has been handed down and I was not on the receiving end of this spectacular piece of jewelry. I took the design of the ring and reached out to David at Mimi's and asked him to create the same piece of jewelry but in the form of a necklace/pendant. I am grateful to David and his team, through their impeccable attention to detail, they delivered a breathtaking piece of jewelry that exceeded my expectations. This is not the first time that I've approached Mimi's to design a piece of jewelry for me and I am always impressed

There is a reason to support small business in our community - great customer service through building a relationship. Buying jewelry can be a difficult process since unlike a car or phone, comparing item A to B can be subjective and you can't just look up the best price on the internet. That's when having trust is so important...knowing you aren't being taken advantage of just because you aren't an expert. I trust Mimi's to provide me with a unique item that is also a great value. They did an awesome job for this custom ring with a very short deadline. Thank you!
