On a very cold December day we had several hours before a concert, and there was no coffee shop to be found because the university was closed. We stumbled upon this oasis of Com and Indian home cooking. They welcomed us in where we made ourselves at home, had delicious chai, excellent appetizers and entrées. The family could not have been more warm and turned what was a
cold grumpy day into a delightful pre-concert experience. For appetizers, the crunchy salmon and the crispy vegetables were our choice. I had the lemon coriander soup, which was lovely. Our entrées were the lamb Rogan Josh, mint chicken, and the cauliflower. We were very grateful for our delicious meal.

We ordered the veg thali. Came with palak paneer, aalu sabji, dal makhani, 1 butter naan, plain rice, achar, raita, 1 gulab jamun and buttermilk. Food was bland at best. Aalu was very sour and had no salt. Palak paneer had no salt or taste whatsoever. Dal was less than okay. Gulab jamun was canned. But they did not keep all the salt that was missing from the other food. They poured it in the Buttermilk, it was very very salty. TASTE. THE FOOD BEFORE YOU SERVE IT, TO CUSTOMERS. Service was very slow. Even though it was a Thursday evening and only 4 tables had customers. Still it took 35 mins for us to get our food. The reason I gave 2* is the fact that food wasn’t inedible. Thoroughly disappointed.

This was an amazing place. The food was fantastic and affordable. You got a good amount of food for the money. The best part is they were not adverse to flavor. I would recommend going here if you are in the area.

This was my first time ordering takeout from The Mint, and unfortunately it was quite disappointing. I ordered Malai Kofta, Veg Biryani, and Bhindi Masala on Thanksgiving Day. The order was ready on time and packed well, and the restaurant was understandably quiet when I went to pick it up.

The food, however, really missed the mark. The Biryani had very little spice and what was there did not feel balanced. The raita was thin and tasted more like buttermilk than proper raita. The Bhindi Masala was rubbery, which made it seem like frozen or over-mature okra had been used without much care. Some pieces were so tough they were hard to chew. In the Malai Kofta, two of the koftas were literally as hard as rocks. Overall, I was not satisfied with the quality of the food at all.
