Lazy don’t open on time

John Winterz

Everything was great—except the attitude from the cashier. First time there, and honestly, my last. Your attitude threw mine off; I was just trying to grab some lunch. These days, all it takes is one bad vibe and I’m done.

It’s a shame, too. Now we’re tipping at machines before we even get service, and then you get hit with an attitude? Makes me want my tip back.

Thanks for the “service”... not.
BUT—I can’t lie—the smoothie and beef patty were smackin’.

To anyone reading this: the food is good, definitely worth trying. But I’m all about energy and vibes, and this one just didn’t sit right with me. You may continue to go there but I will pass.

I had the green island smoothie. It may have been the best smoothie I've ever had in my life. I'll have to come back and try some of the sea moss drinks as well. The place is small & cozy.

First time going to minto’s! I came here bc my bf has ONLY ever said good things!! I popped in after my workout & it was a little crowded. It’s such a small space so with 5 people in there, including myself, it seems crowded. Took about 10 mins to order but I don’t mind! I see there’s 2 hard-working guys at the front doing all the work. I finally ordered & got 2 chicken curry patties…DELICIOUS 🤤🤤🤤 & 1 green island smoothie (SO good) & 1 island paradise smoothie (a bit too sweet for me but I see why ppl would get it if they have a VERY sweet tooth!) for my bf.

Omg…& the older cashier was so sweet & very hospitable. He kept telling me “we’ll get to you in just a second.” Once my patties & smoothies were done, he walked out of the little area behind the counter to give me my drinks & food & asked if I worked near. I honestly don’t mind small chat & I think it’s really sweet when people try to get to know their customers a bit. I know we all have our days & we might wanna skip small talk but I thought that was rly sweet of him!! Will definitely be going again 😊

A little piece of the Carib life in the Bay - best fresh juices, warm patties, sea moss drinks, island snacks, and fun specials. Be prepared to wait but it's worth it, nothing good comes fast anyways. Love this spot, a nice treat to bring to friends + staff are always so warm and nice!

The food was really good but I just am used to getting four plantains on a plate and the barely gave any oxtails on my plate. Overall the food flavor was really good! I just wish the portions were better.

Small takeout spot. Pattie was decent. The filling was good but the Pattie was just a little too thick for my liking but I would definitely try it again... The smoothie was fire tho. So definitely give them a try. Service was excellent though, they seem to be very knowledgeable of their
