   This restaurant has been a great part of the community for many years. Was sad to see it burn down a few years ago. Happy they are back in 2025. The staff informed me they have the same chef! All the food was delicious as always. Service was friendly. My only complaint is that the portions seem much smaller than before AND the prices are much higher. I will still be going back as the food is delicious, but it is more of a special occasion treat now than a weekly spot at that price to value.

   This was our first time back to Mint after the kitchen burned down. The food was very good. We started with the puri, a puffed pastry stuffed with potato, onion, garbanzo, tamarind & yogurt. Delicious. We also ordered tandoori chicken, dal tadka, lamb curry, roasted eggplant & roti. The curry was a little too oily for me but my husband liked it. I preferred the tandoori chicken before as it was served on a sizzling cast iron skillet. Now it is served on a plate. Maybe someone got burned? Everything was so good though & service excellent!

   The food was excellent! We started with the samosas and ordered the lamb and chicken karaies, along with the chicken tikka masalas. We accompanied these dishes with the plain and garlic naans. Everything we tried were excellent, full of flavor and great portions. Definitely coming back!

   Fantastic, fantastic meal. Took a long time for food to arrive, but it was definitely worth the wait. Might have enjoyed even more than Khan Saab. Standout dishes were the Eggplant and Chicken korma, but everything was so yummy Will definitely go back soon ,

   Wonderful food and friendly service. The restaurant is a little noisy so is better for family gatherings than a date night.

   What a great Valentines experience. A la carte dining. Food was excellent. Friendly service. They put a red rose on the table for everyone to take home. Romantic lighting. Our first time there. Will return.

    Although on the expensive side, Mint delivers exceptional Pakistani food. Our favorite meal to get is the lamb curry. The flavors are rich. The mocktails are also good, especially the pina colada
