5 reviews for The Mint Restaurant
Very impressive menu, decor, service, and wine list. Lobster and crab cakes for appetizers, scallops and NY strip for entrees, coconut cake and smores for dessert ! Never had an experience like this in the Raliegh area. We will definitely be returning.
My husband and I ate here last Friday night and were blown away. We each ordered an entree (the filet and scallops) and shared the tartare appetizer. We were both so full we refused dessert even though this menu looked impressive as well. The service was friendly and very knowledgable on each of the wines we ordered. Although expensive, we will def. be returning!
We've experienced two meals at the Mint. Beautiful decor + overpriced menu + small servings = a great place for drinks!
Cheers!
The food is good, but I was very disappointed with the portions. For what you pay, they could give you more. I like that they use a lot of local food and organic, free-range, grass fed meat. Plus they use environmentally friendly vendors that support sustainable practices. They also offer complimentary valet parking and coat check. We ate in the bar on a Thursday night, and the service was average. Definitely upscale.
Very nice. Don't come underdressed. There is a ton of demand for a table but you can eat upstairs at the bar fairly easy and its a little more relaxed.
