Oh boy, let me tell you about this restaurant! I gotta say, it didn't quite meet my expectations. who puts 20% service charges? And honestly, the rest of the experience was just pathetic . I wouldn't really recommend anyone to go there!

The place should have been more popular and deserves higher rating..service and cleanliness were over the board compared to other Seattle restaurants. Liked their high ceiling ambiance :) and food was absolutely delicious.. we order two curry kofta and baingan dish with roti and zarfani rice, weren’t very hungry but ended up overeating without feeling terrible in stomach ? everything that we ordered was full of taste and was worth the experience!

Incredible, innovative progressive Indian food with all the authentic flavors and a modern touch! My friend brought me to Mint for Seattle's restaurant week. We decided to meet for dinner on a weekday hence getting a reservation was easy.They have an amazing drinks menu. For the drinks, I ordered Garden of Bangalore. The name is quite fitting for this cocktail. I absolutely loved every note of my drink. My friend ordered calm before the storm which was served in a cute elephant shaped glass. Both these cocktails were gin based and we absolutely loved it.For the restaurant week menu, there were 3 courses and each course had 3 items to choose from. We were served the complimentary dhokla which absolutely melted in my mouth. Our server sprayed it some savory juice on it.Then I ordered chicken scotch egg from the first course. Hands down this was the best dish I ate here. The scotch eggs were wrapped in spiced breaded chicken and baked with flavorful potato spaghetti. It was heavenly.For the second course I ordered stuffed malai chicken. The chicken was very well cooked and also served with extra sauce with right flavors.For the third course of desserts, we shared Ash n Kulfi and rabdi ghewar. Kulfi was a bit hard initially but after some time we could enjoy charcoal flavor of it. Ghewar was a bit too sweet for my taste but nonetheless we finished it.The presentation was phenomenal. Our server was super friendly, and very attentive. Overall service was excellent. We did get our order wrong and were served cauliflower but the server instantly corrected the mistake and graciously let us enjoy that dish. The vibe of this place was quite upscale and cozy.This meal was honestly one of the best food I've had in Seattle so far. This restaurant is obviously on higher end in terms of pricing but taste, quality and overall service justify the cost. Only annoying part is the 20% service charge. But I guess every other restaurants are charging these stupid fees. Nonetheless, it was absolute delightful dinner! I strongly recommend!

Mint progressive exceeded my expectations. I went for happy hour along with my team and tried almost all the menu items and some from dinner menu. It was quite amazing how authentic the flavours were even with a modernized twist and contemporary presentation.We were greeted with complimentary dhokla which was sprayed with the sweet/savory juice upon serving. Lamb keema, malai chicken fondue, duet kofta were great. Laal maas stood out for me, it was really close to what I tried in Jaipur just a few months ago. A few things that can be skipped are Jalfrezi taco, cauliflower 65 and old delhi fried chicken. Jalfrezi tacos were missing flavours and content. Cauliflower and fried chicken were a bit on the drier side. I asked for some extra 65 sauce which made it better. The chicken was quite dry and hard. For beverage I tried the grapefruit juice and aam panna. Grapefruit juice was a bit too tart, but the mango Panna was quite amazing.The ambience of the restaurant is unlike any other Indian restaurant in Seattle. Servers are quite classy. I just wish the location was a little better than the messy area of downtown. Parking is a bit tricky. I would highly recommend the restaurant. I hope this restaurant survives for a long time, we definitely need more such Indian restaurants in Seattle.

I really wanted to like mint! On the positive note our server last night was wonderful. She was attentive and easy to talk to, had lot of opinions about the menu.On the other side, then there was the food.Our meal started with an amuse bouche that lacked real flavor. The best way I can describe it is a lightly spiced wet peice of bread. In all honesty it may have just not been for me, and could have been executed perfectly, I found the texture and seasoning off. I'm a pass.However, here's where things went bad.We ordered a bottle of chard, 2 appetizers 2 entrees and a desert.The wine showed up after our appetizers as it had not been chilled. This was odd because it's one of the more expensive choices on the menu.Ordered the duck kabob and Pani Puri for apps. The kabob was ground to within an inch of its life and had a grainy texture. The seasoning however was amazing! Butttttt... It was brought out at room temperature. The restaurant was not very busy so this was a miss. The Pani Puri was clearly premade and came out ok. My guess is that this worked because the kitchen didn't have to actually heat anything.Our mains were the lamb shank and the scallops. Sides were the zaffroni rice and the roti.Same issues and praises. The flavor was pretty good (the braised shank lacked salt) but the execution was off. The shank was Luke warm except the bone and the scallops were tough.Long story short: the flavor is there the execution is wayyyyy off.Won't return. Price was too high for every step of the way to goosed by the kitchen.

Excellent and the bartender creates wonderful mocktails!
Came with a group on Friday night for a birthday celebration with prior reservations. Our servers were fantastic and manager, Jeanie, was great. We tried the pani puri, beetroot chop, nitrogen chaat, dahi kachori chaat, stuffed aubergine, and a duet kofta, with some naan and roti. The flavors were different and wonderful. We also tried some yummy mocktails--smooth sailing and French 86, along with an old fashioned and masala chai. For dessert, we liked the gulkand and thandai ice-creams with daulat ki chaat. Overall, it was a great experience! 1201 & 3rd garage is awesome for parking close by.

Big restaurant considering location.Children at night creates noise somehow.Prices are OK comparing to food and service.As an Indian Cousine it is a limited menu.Parking could be a difficulty.They close quite early.Don’t order the attached fish. It was not good with plenty of bones.
