Their lunch buffet was excellent. They have a nice selection of food and their naan bread was hot and buttery every time. Their Tikka masala sauce was very good, but I did think that their chicken could taste a little better. However, every other dish was amazing! I loved their onion pakora, Gobi manchurian, and especially their rice pudding. Their service was great as well. I am definitely coming back!

The food was delicious with plenty of clearly labeled vegan options in the entrees. We also got a desert free of charge when we informed the staff that it was a birthday celebration. The establishment allows you to byob/alcohol and provided us glasses for the wine. I especially recommend the onion pakora, pani puri, and the aloo gobi masala

The Mint is a fantastic place to dine! The prices are fair considering the quality and generous portion sizes. Everything tasted fresh, and the presentation was impressive. Whether you're planning a date night, celebrating a special occasion, or just grabbing a casual dinner, this spot won’t disappoint. Highly recommended!

Great outdoor dining experience! We loved the taste, flavors and colors of our meals. The place was very safe (full respect of social distancing) and our waiter very kind. Lot of gluten free and dairy free options if needed. A great pick for Indian cuisine with a Chef from Bangalore!
