Tandoori Chicken (Full Order)
Abigail W.

The food here is amazing! We were so pleased with our lunch, and will definitely be back. Our service was excellent - Arsh was very attentive and easy going. The portions are huge, everything was made fresh, and the restaurant is very clean and nice. I recommend the tandoori chicken and butter chicken, both were very juicy and tender. The lamb was amazing as well, great spice. Thank you so much for having us!

I wanted to try a new Indian place so I stopped in. There were parts of the restaurant that appeared to be In disrepair. I can overlook things like that if the food is fantastic, however sadly it was not. I ordered the Mushroom Mataar and my friend ordered the Tika Masala. It was very watery and bland. I was really disappointed.

Goan Fish Curry
Shekila S.

All I can say is....It is about time there is a stellar Indian restaurant here in town! And you guys-it's wonderful!!! Not only are they offering some typical dishes like Veggie Samosas Chicken Tikka, Tandoori offerings ect., but they also have non- traditional items! I ordered through DoorDash and got the Goan Fish Curry. I lived in India years ago and it is truly reminiscent of dishes I had and long for. If you are tired of the humdrum Chicken Tikka Masala, you might want to take a ride to Avon! I do believe they are going to be a hot destination!! My only trivial complaint--they did not send utensils. Oh pooh :).

Vegetarian dinner

Under old management this place used to not have any taste to their food. But they have renewed their management and food tastes much better. The staff are incredibly polite and nice. They have a lot of options to choose from and have many vegetarian options as well. They do dine in and sit down as well. They do sweets package in gift boxes too. The do not have outside seating and have plenty of parking space. Their ambience is good but the decor could be better for an Indian restaurant. They are located right on US 36 and it is easy to locate. We will definitely try this place again especially for their Paneer Tikka Masala. Delicious!!

This place is located off the Main Street in Avon. It's not hard to get to, but when you walk in it is a little sad. I went on a Thursday evening around 7pm. A lot of door dash and over the phone orders were coming in so I thought it was a good option. I ordered to go took approximately 20 mins not too long. I got home and tasted the food and it was not as flavorful as I've had before. The food was hot and the quantity was large, I ordered medium spice level and it practically had no spice at all. I'm pretty sure there are better options out there for Indian food.

My brother and I decided to go out for dinner and I saw this place out of the corner of my eye a couple days before. So we decided to try it. We chose correctly. The food was in good portions and perfectly seasoned and spiced. When I picked from the menu I looked in the vegetarian and there was a huge list. So I just looked at the server and pointed at whatever my finger landed on and it was magical. Holy crap. My brother and I left very happy. So stoked! Will be returning ASAP to try more stuff on the menu.

Chicken Tikka Masala & Chicken Biriyani
Edward M.

We ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala & Chicken Biriyani. With regards to the service it was exceptional, the waiter was very observant when we needed more water and was very kind. The biriyani was a large portion size, which is nice. The biriyani is more of a dry dish, but I was expecting a sauce on the side (which I am used to being served with in UK). I prefer my naan breads to be thicker, this naan bread served here was on the thin side. With regards to both dishes I guess I just have higher standards with being served curries often back in the UK, so the USA curries kind of pale in comparison.

I will be honest about daal, i ordered daal makhni what i got was moreover tadka daal by using black daal. Naans were good, well cooked n crispy, onion kulcha was ok due to less stuffing of onions. Overall experience was good coz i was hungry too

The WRONG BREAD WE ORDERED 4 GARLIC!!

Absolute worst experience for takeout. We ordered $70 worth of takeout. Drive 20 mins to try their food for the first time. The bag is stapled shut and they were friendly inside. So I assumed with the recipient being stapled to my bag that it was correct. However when I arrived home I found out that it was completely wrong. When I called we explained what was wrong and they said they would make it. When I arrived back a new bag was waiting. It was still missing food. I had pictures of what I received and they argued with me about that they had given me. At this point I felt completely scammed. I had received two items from my 10 Item order. None of my entrees. None of the deserts. How do you give someone there food and not even check if their entrees or items that are blatantly on the receipt are in the bag. I've never left a bad review anywhere. But I've also never been treated this poorly or had this much of my time wasted by a restaurant. Never spend your hard earned money at this establishment. They don't deserve it. Edit.... After going back for the missing food items with my receipt they accused me of lying. Then proceeded to make me wait another 20 mins for a small portion of a $17.99 shrimp dinner we had purchased and didn't receive. Well we placed our order at 8:30. They close at 10PM. I left after 10PM disgusted. Only to arrive home to find they still are incompetent idiots. First thing we notice is massive hair stuck to the bottom our a lid. Clearly visible without even opening the lid. It's stuck inside to the food! They still didn't provide more than half of our items. We got ZERO RICE. All entrees come with rice and you gave us none. We ordered four garlic Naans. We received what I posted a picture of. How stupid can you be. Not to mention the owner is who brought out the food the first time. So here I am at home with all half my food I paid $70 for. So I decided to not eat anything so I can take it back tomorrow for my refund. Well they just so happen to not be open the next day. Of course even though google said they were open. So now I will be going back Monday. I have never felt so taken advantage of by a restaurant of all places.m! Didn't even try your food but it looked like trash compared to others in the area. We cook and dine Indian cuisine very often. But this establishment deserves to go under faster than sooner. It's only a matter of time before it's out of business.

Buffet
Wanda M.

I visited Mint for the first time today. This small strip center doesn't have direct access off Rockville Rd. Turn North at the light onto Shiloh Crossing Drive and come in from behind the building. The interior is warm, inviting and cozy. Seating options are booths along the exterior of the room with 4-top tables in the center of the room. I went for carryout and decided to go with the lunch buffet for the variety. The small lunch buffet is $10.99 (includes soft drink) and has 10 items on the hot line. I only glanced at the menu but it appeared fairly extensive. With carryout container in hand, I loaded it up with basmatic rice (little dried out), chicken tiki marsala, chicken curry, palak paneer, and tandoori chicken, and 2 others that I forget the name. Everything ranged from hot to warm temperature wise. I also received a small bowl so I could take cold items home. I chose the mango and rice puddings. The Mango pudding was very tasty and my favorite of the two. I liked everything I tried but especially the chicken tiki marsala. Large chucks of tender chicken and I poured a lot of sauce over the rice to enjoy with my garlic naan. The chicken curry was tender and flavorful. The spinach dish was extremely good with lots of spice. The server wasn't chatty but was attentive, polite and got me in and out quickly. I look forward to going back and dining in.

Garlic Naan
Joseph R.

My wife and I had a really nice meal. My chili chicken had really nice flavor and just enough spice to tantalize my taste buds. My wife had the Chicken Karahi mild and it must have been delicious because she blocked me from grabbing some. The rice was tasty and liked the hint of fennel. The garlic Naan was the perfect touch to clean my plate. Service was incredible and very friendly.

Chicken tikka masala tandoor chicken and veggie fritters
Jastina C.

Ehhh sorry I will have to side with the negative reviews here on this establishment. I was starving and wanted to love this for sure. I will highlight some good and bad. The restaurant is nothing fancy but nothing too bad either. The service was nothing to talk about but I mean I got the buffet so I wouldn't be too critical on that. Let's get to the food (why we go right?) I too, experienced old food an hour before the buffet was ending with empty/nearly empty dishes never being refilled. The tandoori chicken was good though for it not being fresh. They offer naan bread when you walk in. Garlic and naan. The garlic was fantastic However I feel it overpowered some of the food I ate it with. The chicken tikka was average, not bad but not the best I've ever had. It's creamy with not too much in flavors. I wasn't a fan of the rice pudding and disappointed they didn't have the gulab that every traditional buffet I've been to has had. Also, the most expensive Indian buffet I've been to. $11? I'd have to pass on returning

If you are not looking for authenticity this place is ok. Otherwise the style of preparation and the ingredients used may disappoint you.

5 star experience!!! I was treated like a king. It was such an honor to come here. I drove an hour…read moreaway from crawfordsville as I was feeling ambitious to try a new Indian dining experience! I was not disappointed the food was amazing and the ambience was perfect. I absolutely loved my experience here and it's one I'll always remember. I will be coming back!!! I don't give out 5 stars to just anyone! :) cheers! Ashok was great

Came here today for lunch with my pops and honestly left disappointed, which made me sad because I…read moreusually love this place and was really looking forward to a great Indian meal. We arrived close to opening, so it wasn't busy. Lively Indian music was playing in the background, it was very noticeable since there was no one inside when we arrived. The first thing that caught my attention was my water cup. It had a lot of lint on it, which made me nervous to drink from it. I asked for another cup, but then noticed a bug in that one. Thankfully, the server had no issue replacing it again. We started with the aloo gobi spicy, and that was great as usual. The garlic naan was also delicious and one of the highlights of the meal. My dad and I both ordered the butter chicken spicy, and this is where things went downhill. There was basically no spice at all. It tasted more like a level 0 for spice. The server offered a red sauce to spice it up (I think it was sriracha), but it just wasn't the same. We also only received one portion of rice, when usually each butter chicken comes with its own rice. The sauce was much runnier than normal, and the chicken to sauce ratio was uneven between our dishes. Unfortunately, we left dissatisfied with this visit. Not sure if there was a different cook today, but I'm hoping this was just an off day because I've enjoyed this place in the past and would love to see it back on point next time.
