The restaurant was slightly off the tourist truck, but it was busy with people. The service is friendly but very slow compared to New York's ways of service. The place is simple inside, with nothing to brag about, but the food explodes with flavors. I ordered Vindaloo, which is a lamb dish, and it is so spicy and garlic naan break. The dish was delicious, and eat every bit of it. The sauce was so good i used naan to finish it off. I want to return and order more, but this time, i will ask for the authentic level of spice. read more

Mint Heights - Lamb Vindaloo - Indian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

So why not 5 stars? Because my friend from India has taken me to places that I would rate as 5 stars on the deliciousness scale. This is still very good food and they are consistently good for take out or delivery. read more

Mint Heights has reliable Indian food. I'm posting photos of the lunch special from yesterday - to show what was included. They sent 4 side sauces which were delicious & really enhanced the entire meal. I also bought a full sized Saag Paneer - also excellent. They included lots of paneer & it tasted very fresh. The chicken tikka could have used a little more chicken, I would have preferred the option for all chicken tikka (instead of an equal sized portion of daal). The garlic Nan was good, 4 stars overall. read more

Mint Heights - Chicken Tikka Masala $16 - Indian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

We ordered for delivery on Grubhub and there was a 5 dollars off 50+ order. I always order more than 50 dollars so that wasn't a problem. We really liked the chicken samosas. I would get again. The travel didn't do the cauliflower Manchurian any good as it lost all its crispiness. No point in taking in all the extra calories of fried food when it loses its crunch. I really liked the Chana saag. The chicken tikka was a bit creamier and sweeter than I'm used to so would probably get a different dish next time. The aloo gobi tasted like it was frozen and defrosted for us as the cauliflower was very soft and had a frozen aftertaste. Overall a 3.5 take out experience. Happy we can cross it off our list of food in the neighborhood but not running to order from here again. read more

Fast service and tasty food! I highly recommend getting the mango lassi if you're up for a sweet drink. The chicken makhani and tikka had wonderful flavors, but the chicken in the makhani was way less tender than that in the tikka for some reason... read more

Mint Heights - Basmati Rice, Mint Chutney, Chicken Makhani, Chicken Tikka Masala - Indian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Stumbled by on Sunday evening ISO of dinner. Our group of 3 was seated immediately, and we were brought lentil crackers and chutney. We ordered the saag paneer, chicken makhani, chicken korma, and some plain naan. Staff was friendly and quick with our orders, and food came out equally as fast. Saag was good with nice portions of paneer. The curries themselves were good, quite tailored to American taste buds, but a bit lacking in the chicken department (about one piece per person). However, it was a reasonable price and we left with our tummies full, filled w naan and rice. Well-located spot in Brooklyn to curb that Indian food craving. read more

Mint Heights - Naan, Saag Paneer, Chicken Korma, Chicken Makhani - Indian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The food here is good! However, the service is kind of all over the place and feels like a mess. I've been here twice and they can take a very long time to seat you and to serve you. Also, they tend to bring the food out one at a time in very long increments so you cannot have a good meal with everything on the table at once. One time they even brought the rice out first and then many minutes went by before an actual curry dish came out. Another time the naan came out first and because we were so hungry we ate it without any other dishes. For this reason I give this place a 3 stars. It is a shame because the food is good and they even have yummy deserts. But when going out to eat, especially Indian food, you would like all the curries and dishes on the table along with rice and naan to enjoy it as a complete meal. read more

Really good Indian lunch at this spot on Henry. It's been around a while and I had to try it! Pretty good butter chicken (chicken a little dry) and the saag paneer was delicious! Comes with a hefty bowl of fluffy rice and really liked the garlic roti. Heard their lunch special is a great deal and would totally come try that next. read more

I'm so excited to write this review!! We've been in the neighborhood for a couple of years now and glad to say we finally found our go-to spot for Indian. No shade to any other local spots but ever since we left our old neighborhood on UES (with Moti Mahal) we have sorely missed having Indian that consistently hits in the neighborhood. Everything within our typical order is good, but special shoutout to the Saag Paneer, which for whatever reason feels not quite right at some places. The Eggplant Bharatha is also SO freaking tasty, and is now part of the standard order. read more

Lots of gluten free and dairy free options. Be careful with the rice though as it has milk in it if you are dairy free. We had a wonderful male server who was very knowledgable of the menu and entertaining! read more

I've been wanting to check this Indian restaurant out since few people have recommended it since its opening. Located in Brooklyn Heights, their grand opening offered 50% off menu if you dine in and lunch special for an affordable price. I've been meaning to stop by and dine in during lunch time for the 50% deal. I've heard nothing but great things about the food as well from friends. However, my recent visit was a bit too late. Apparently they had also recently changed ownership. When I dined in, they did not offer the 50% off regular menu and the waitress told me there is no lunch specials for dine-in. Honestly, this made no sense to me because it doesn't really entice people to dine in when they can just get takeout for a much better price during lunch hours. We decided to stay and dine in anyways since we were already there. Waitress was busy wiping down the menus when we arrived. It was lunch hour rush but the whole time we dine there, no other customers came in for dining or takeout/delivery. Which I can kinda see why now -- with the pricing and lack of incentive for dining in. That really bothered me. Anyways, we ordered the chicken and lamb vindaloo and garlic naan. Food came fast in less than 10 mins, but considering we were the only ones there, it was a decent wait time. The vindaloos came with basmati rice to share. I felt the portion was on the smaller side, especially paying regular lunch/dinner price. But food was good but pretty standard for Indian. Not the best I've had but not the worst either. I probably won't come back for dining in but will order takeout for their lunch specials. Quite a disappointment after being excited to try this spot for a while. I've heard similar experiences after the recent ownership change. read more

Mint Heights - Chicken Vindaloo, Lamb Vindaloo, and garlic naan - Indian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

i had been looking forward to trying this place and they have an affordable lunch special so i ordered the chicken tikka masala. the tikka masala was SOOOOOO sweet and mild - like canned tomato soup with added sugar. the chicken was rubbery and seemed to have been frozen. the rice was edible and the naan was fine. the mulligatawny was also acceptable. portions were great. overall, a disappointment and i wish it was better so i could return! read more

It's a small restaurant and the service is just okay. The food is good. Paneer Burji, Lamb Rohanjosh and Tandoori Chicken was great.

My friends and I decided to check out Mint Heights at 6pm on a Friday. The restaurant doesn't seat too many parties (maybe ~10?), and it was half full when we got there. It's a casual setting with a warm, familial ambiance, though the staff are dressed formally. When we left at 7:20, the restaurant was fully packed. I was pretty hungry and forgot to take pictures, but we got butter chicken ($16), chicken saagwala ($16), malabar salmon ($18), and 1 order of plain naan ($4) and 1 order of garlic naan ($5). Rice is served communally. The curries of all the dishes had excellent flavor, and everyone really enjoyed their food. The naan was fluff, moist, and cooked without charring. The two things I did not care for about my saag was that there were 2 cardamom pods, and the portion size was small for the price. There were about 4 cubes of chicken in the dish (cooked pretty well), meaning I could have finished it in 4 bites. Service was fantastic! Our waters never went past half empty, there were constant check-backs, and plates were brought and cleared efficiently. The waitstaff were also extremely kind and hospitable. If you are in the area, I would recommend checking out Mint Heights! read more

Great location, right near Dumbo. We stopped in around 2PM on a Saturday and it wasn't busy at all. So, if you are waiting in line by the bay, walk a couple blocks up to Mint Heights. The vibe is very calm and it's a nice place. The food is good, not necessarily memorable, but it is a fair price, very flavorful and filling. The Chicken Chatnar was very creamy. Not spicy at all. The Rogan Josh has a little spice, but nothing crazy. Chicken Samosas were good as well. read more

A short update! I absolutely loved the crab curry from Mint Heights. It wasn't fishy, but full of crab with a great curry flavor. We got it along with rice and a shaved fried okra appetizer- which is super tasty, almost like "okra chips." I'm glad to see that this restaurant has a good amount of people ordering and dining in. We really couldn't ask for a better neighborhood Indian restaurant. read more

Great food. Good staff. Good atmosphere. Bring your own beer or wine. What else do you want? I'm there at least once a week.

Short review: Solid Northern Indian food. Would recommend the Lamb nihari and Goan salmon. Appetizers were alright. I went to the spot with one other after looking for another Indian place in my area. It's a casual spot and the service was nice. I had a rose lassi which is a bit more uncommon compared to the usual mango (or sweet/salty) and it was tasty. We went with two appetizers, two main dishes (unsure if you have to pay for rice,) and a bread. They served papadum to start out with which was fine. It came with the usual two chutneys most places have (tamarind and mint.) Our advertisers were kukuri bhindi and gobi manchurian. Kukuri bhindi is fried okra and the version here was good though would have maybe preferred a bit more of the besan flour for crunch. Still solid. Our other appetizer, the gobi manchurian, is an Indo-Chinese/Hakka Chinese dish consisting of cauliflower (said gobi) in a sweet and sour sauce. Tasty version with not many complaints outside of perhaps being a bit less spicy but places are either or regarding heat and I still like both. My main dish was the lamb nihari. This is a dish made with lamb or goat usually and they made the traditional version as a lamb shank instead of the chopped up pieces you usually find. This was excellent with a nice large piece of tender lamb and a lot of good spices. I ordered spicy and it had a mild kick but I don't tend to find nihari that hot outside of the distinct Pakistani version (which is made with beef.) They ordered a curry which I believe was the goan salmon as there was coconut and they usually prefer fish. This was also good though I preferred the spices in my dish. Our bread was the kandari naan which is very similar to kashmiri naan found in some other spots (perhaps the same but a different dialect.) The bread was good and not super sweet from the coconut. We didn't order dessert instead going to the nearby location of Le French Tart Deli (outstanding croissants and in this case I got a feuilletine cake which was tasty.) Food here at this unassuming Indian spot is solid. I prefer the more creative food nearby but I don't have many complaints outside of perhaps the price point but it is Brooklyn Heights so it's expected. Will go back. Low 4. read more

My favorite Indian - I travel from Manhattan to eat this!! Order any of the classics: samosas, tikka masala, vindaloo (def spicy), chole, garlic/regular naan, basmati rice, mango lassi and dessert.

I wish I'd remembered to take photos of the incredible food at Mint Heights, but that'll just be another reason to go back! The space is cozy with plenty of seating, and the servers and owners are so warm, friendly, and attentive. We got samosas, yellow dal, butter chicken, naan, and roti, and all were incredible! The owner recommended the cauliflower, so we'll be back again to try that! read more

My daughter and I decided to become Yelpers, so we take out or eat in a place we feel has great food. Tonight we decided on Mint Heights on Henry Street for takeout. I go straight for the Chicken Tandoori option. the rice compliment was tasty. my daughter had the Chicken Tikka Masala. Both meals were delicious. My only regret was that we should have probably eaten in. The vibe, decor, and professionalism seemed second to none. We'll be back. As far as Indian food goes, it looks like we will most likely be regulars since we're so close. Great food. read more

While visiting friends in Brooklyn and wandering around Brooklyn Bridge Park, we decided to stop by this small Indian spot. And boy what a great decision! We got the Garlic Naan, Chatnar, Lamb Nihari, Chicken Biryani, and Basmati Rice. Everything here was super fresh and delicious! Naan was soft with great texture, tons of garlic. The chatnar was different from other Indian food I've tried but I loved the spices. Lamb was super tender. I don't remember the name of the last dish but I thought it was interesting - crispy bite and a tad sweet. Highly recommend if you want to grab Indian food around Brooklyn Bridge Park/DUMBO!

I ordered, so I didn't sit down and eat but wanted to try it out since it's nearby my neighborhood. I had the prix fixe me (great deal!) with paneer tikka masala and samosa and regular naan. Unfortunately everything was a little too sweet for my liking. The samosas were decent but nothing too special. I found the naan to also be a little sweet, not sure if it's because I ordered out but the paneer tikka masala was too sweet. read more
