I can't believe it's been so long since I've updated this review! Mint continues to shine as an excellent restaurant in Tarrytown. The food and ambiance are both top-notch. You won't be disappointed. It's no wonder it's still so popular after all these years! read more

The service was outstanding from the one of the family owners, to the waiter, and over to the bus people. The special fettuccine and deserts were excellent. The shell steak was pre-sliced( a no -no in my book) and I asked for pink on the middle and warm and was told to order medium. It came out barely pink and somewhat dry- maybe the pre-slicing. The fries were great. The ambience was vey unique and fitting for a late lunch, which we had. I would not call this romantic, but more like ladies- who-lunch casual with a lot of plants and unique food and jams for sale upfront. read more

What a great experience it was to sit out front on a beautiful Friday in October. The atmosphere was perfect and it was so much fun to people watch as visitors to this sleepy hollow town walked by in witch hats and other festive garb. Out server was very helpful in picking our dishes. The Sweet Diablo , a special sandwich served on fluffy focaccia, a mushroom omelette and another special - eggs Benedict with avocado and corn all delicious and made with love. I would definitely recommend eating here. read more

Mint has been a go to for me for over ten years now. The Belgo-Moroccan owner sets a high standard for cuisine here and you won't be disappointed by anything you eat here. The pro tip here is to get a pound of the candied pecans to take home with you, they are life affirming. Are you disappointed by the dearth of decent cheese in the United States? Well Mint has a panoply of incredible cheeses from Europe and the charcuterie and cheese plate gives you an almost indecent amount of cured meats and stunning cheeses with freshly toasted baguette and a generous portion of Membrillo for a very reasonable (in today's economy) $29. You might be tempted by the Moroccan Chicken, and you should be, it is delicious but for me they do a really amazing Steak Frites that is cooked to perfection. I ordered mine "à point" or medium rare and it was absolutely as advertised. My husband had the Cuban on gluten free bread and was very happy with it. The ambience of the restaurant is really nice, it is very warm and inviting with cool decoration and big vats of marinated olives and other delicious mezze, or Kamio to be nationally accurate. Check out the cheese selection in my photos, it really is S tier. read more

Mint Premium Foods - Cheese, lovely cheese. - Specialty Food Near Me - Tarrytown, New York

My friend and I came for brunch. She has raved about this place, so I was excited to try it. I loved the decor and speciality items for sale in the front of the restaurant. There were daily specialist listed by the hostess stand. Everything sounded delicious. We were seated quickly at a cute little table. Our server, Brian, provided us water quickly. I ordered the fries with the Cubano Panini with Porchetta, smoked ham, pickles, Swiss cheese, tomatoes and garlic aioli. It was delicious. I hope to go back the next time I visit Tarrytown. read more

Heard all about their hot chocolate so walked in here one sunny, cold afternoon. Was about to take it to-go when the owner ushered me to a table and said "stay, take it easy and enjoy." And wow, am I glad I did. The hot chocolate delivered to me was a total feast, fudgey and topped with whipped cream and cotton candy. I sat by the window and savored the moment. Thanks so much for the deliciousness and the chance to enjoy. 5 stars!!!! read more

The food here was so good and it was honestly pretty well priced. We had a reservation for a party of 10 for a birthday and although there's no parking lot, there was lots of areas nearby to search for parking. We were immediately brought to our table as we arrived and given water. The restaurant is packed with as many tables as they could fit in a small room so maneuvering to our seats was a bit tough. After everyone arrived we ordered some cocktails, wine, and soft drinks. The cocktails were STRONG. I got the butterscotch White Russian which was very good but I almost choked it up after taking a bug first sip since it was so strong. My husband got the margarita which was also very boozy but still good. The server was very friendly. We got 4 appetizers among the table so we could try a bit of everything, the calamari, the charcuterie board, the baked Brie, and the truffle burrata. The calamari was good, well cooked and the dipping sauce it came with was very spicy but delicious! The charcuterie board was amazing, came with a small pile of meat, some name of sorts, and a bunch of blocks of cheese. I honestly don't remember the names besides the pesto cheese but all of them were very good. There was so much we couldn't finish it. The baked Brie was the star for everyone. It didn't even need the balsamic sauce on top because it was so great tasting on its own with the bread. The burrata was honestly a bit lacking compared to other places I have been. It was okay but I didn't taste the truffle at all and it was unremarkable. I had asked for the pumpkin soup before my meal but I'm guessing our server forgot as I never got it. There was constantly staff bussing our table, filling our waters, and asking if we needed anything. I got the truffle chicken panini with truffle fries. The truffle fries were SO good, a bit salty but I LOVED them. The panini was good. My husband got the chefs burger with sweet potato fries. The fries were cooked perfectly and the burger was delicious! Very thick as well. We got a side of garlic aioli which was delicious! There were large chunks of garlic and it was well made. I also got to try my father in laws steak panini which was also very good. Only one person at the table was unhappy with their meal. He got the cod and it was dry and overcooked, the mussels clearly not cooked properly and tasted bad. We some ordered desserts and cappuccinos and the cappuccinos were delicious. They sung for my husband for his birthday and at the end let us know the dessert he got was in the house. We shared the pistachio ricotta cheese cake which we'd known we wanted before we knew what it was from pictures online as it was very pretty and looked yummy. It delivered on both aspects. It was light and delicious. My mother in law got the bread pudding with chocolate icecream and it was honestly way too hot. All the icecream melted before anyone could try it and the first bites burnt mouths. It was okay, very mild in flavor and I wouldn't recommend it. I think it was because our table was all the way in the back but it was hard to get our servers attention when we needed it. Over all it was a great experience and I would go back, perhaps with a smaller group. read more

Such a standout spot in Tarrytown! We stopped into Mint Premium Foods and were blown away. The mango carpaccio soup was light, fresh, and bursting with flavor--unlike anything we've had before. The charcuterie and cheese board was generous and beautifully arranged, with a fun mix of flavors (yes, that green cheese was amazing!). I had the eggs benedict with fries, and wow--perfectly poached eggs, velvety hollandaise, and crispy fries that hit the spot. Great service, stylish atmosphere, and food that feels both creative and comforting. Highly recommend! read more

Let's start with the positives that Mint has got going on. This is a situation where I'm yet again begging Yelp to institute half-stars because Mint is more accurately rated as a 3.5 rather than a 3 or a 4. 1. First, I'm a sucker for anything that's half restaurant, half specialty or gourmet store. We didn't get a chance to poke around the front part of the restaurant but I glimpsed a variety of cheeses, meats, and crackers. 2. The dishes we ordered, across the board, were delicious. I liked my grilled dates salad; can't go wrong with the combo of dates, prosciutto, and goat cheese. The salad also came with orange slices and pistachios. Overall, something I'd definitely recreate at home. My favorite dish was my mom's shrimp and grits, the shrimp were huge and cooked perfectly. The not-so-goods: 1. Prices were really high for the portion sizes. I get that this is a thing across the industry, inflation yada yada yada, but these were Manhattan prices basically. The cheapest salad on the menu, the Mint house salad, was $16, with no protein ... and a topping of grilled chicken was %10. The grilled dates salad was definitely appetizer-sized, not enough for a stand-alone entree. 2. From sitting down to getting the check, brunch took around 2 hours. Great if you don't mind sitting and chatting without anyone bothering you, not great if you want to get a quick meal. Service was absolutely slammed but our waiter did his best and I appreciated him coming by to take our order before another table who had waved him down (we were seated before they were). 3. The side of French baguette was probably the worst baguette I've ever had - stale, dry, ripped apart the roof of my mouth. Charging $5 for such a stale old piece of bread was highway robbery. read more

I was quite excited to try this spot before a show at the Music Hall. Between some rave reviews and a cool vibe from the interior/shopfront, we were salivating. Unfortunately, both the food and the service wound up disappointing. I did enjoy my mill salad, with a nice, light vinaigrette, but my Cubano was bland and disappointing lacking seasoning, and my girlfriend's mushroom ravioli arrived in congealed and largely unappetizing cream sauce. I didn't even enjoy my mill margarita, a specialty cocktail that was overly sweet, more akin to one I'd expect at a tourist trap or a resort bar rather than a nice restaurant. On the more positive side, the burgers were deemed a success by my cousin and nephew, and while I did not have dessert, those also seemed to be enjoyed. I'd like to rate kinder, but after joking around that we had too early a reservation and were going to have to stall or something, we barely made the show for curtain time. We had to ask twice to order--and at least twice for the check, with long waits for food, things arriving a bit out of order (like drink after entree). And while it wasn't empty I can't say it was mobbed to a point I would have expected it. Charming spot, with a nice looking shop up front--perhaps they have better days, but was definitely quite disappointed. read more

Graced this lovely spot for a birthday dinner with friends and it was just lovely. Great, festive and friendly vibe and attentive, patient service and the food was quite tasty! The restaurant - like most spots in Tarrytown on a night when there's a show at Tarrytown Music Hall - was bustling when we arrived, and we were promptly shown to our reserved seats. I love the array of cheeses and olives in the restaurant's "general store" in the front of the house. We ordered a round of classic drinks (mojito, whiskey sour, gin and tonic, Malibu and pineapple juice - we're not big drinkers) and each drink was on point and not overly heavy on the liquor, which I appreciate. We weren't famished, so we all ordered burgers and sandwiches, which were quite good, especially my Cubano I want to return to try some entrees - like the butternut squash risotto - which looked interesting and promising! But the star of this evening was their TRUFFLE FRIES! These were infused with truffle oil, fried to perfection, and so, so delicious! We actually ordered more when the servings we were sharing weren't enough. I would return JUST for those. We shared a bread pudding, which was also lovely and light, topped with a scoop of creamy and not cloyingly sweet vanilla gelato. Overall, a great meal, with a friendly and relaxed vibe. I'll be back. read more

Great Manhattan vibe, friendly service and efficient ordering. However- the food did not deliver - Tuna sandwich on a roll was tough and dry and hard to bite. Sweet potato fries were excellent. My duck confit panini had dry duck which was old, the cheese and bread were fine. Sandwiches almost felt like the protein (tuna and duck) were cooked and then reheated. The octopus app was a little tough but generally " just Ok" All the food needed a little more herb/spice and was too bland. The food is fixable- will try this nice restaurant again. read more

Mint Premium Foods is Mint! Located in Tarrytown I went here after taking the nature walk in Croton. We went here with a large group, and it was an outstanding experience! The atmosphere has a hip warm vibe, perfect for our gathering. Our waiter was exceptional, he managed our large party with ease, ensuring everyone's orders were taken accurately and promptly. He was attentive without being intrusive, making sure our drinks were filled and our needs met throughout the meal. The menu offered a fantastic variety of dishes, all bursting with flavor perfect for a quick bite for lunch. I got the mint burger and yea it was good! No mint on it. Everyone said their dish was delicious, showcasing the restaurant's commitment to quality ingredients and presentation. The service was seamless, which made the evening even more enjoyable. In short: - Delicious food - Great service - Good for large groups or just date night read more

Mint is a cute place on Main Street a block away from the Tarrytown Music Hall where I had tickets to a show. I selected this place bc of its location and the good reviews and it did not disappoint. Ordered the French Baked Brie which tasted very nice with the black olives, balsamic reduction and fig jam. I had to have the mint tea and it went well with the Brie. Also had the beyond burger but with wagyu beef patty and not the plant based burger - so that was a little extra money. The onions could have been caramelized more and could have used a little more seasoning but overall very good. Was there at about 2:30 on a Saturday afternoon and it was packed. The interior design has a nice casual and relaxed feel to it and makes you want to hang out there all day. Prices seem a bit pricey but worth it. read more

Met friends here. As you walk in, they have a store front to purchase some of their items. Actually a lot of their items! We were seated for our reservation, and was greeted by a very nice server. He was very attentive to us the whole time. Our food was as all DELICIOUS! We had appetizers of the Baked Brie and the Dates. Our dinners were Mint Burger, Chefs burger, the Seasane Tuna, and the Red Snapoer special. My husband said that had to be one of the best burgers he's had. Dessert was a pistachio cheese cake, and a bread pudding! Drinks were excellent!! read more

We had an amazing brunch carefully prepared, delicious, perfectly timed and presented by professional, personable staff. We shared the two benedicts (smoked salmon and truffled ham) one with perfect fries, one with a delicious salad that was incredibly NOT overdressed! My husband's Bloody Mary had the right balance of spice, flavor and a hint of mint, my sangria was refreshing and delightfully different, with a special touch (I will let Khalil tell you the ingredients, if you go.) The chocolate tiramisu was light as air and again, the flavors were subtle and perfectly balanced. We then purchased some charcuterie, cheese, and a baguette to take home, with the help of Hassan. Mint is a new find for us and I see how it has prevailed for 25 years and earned Michelin ratings for 5 years running!. Bravo! read more

Bad decisions were made. My wife and I decided to try out Mint for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. Place was busy so it must be good right? We both ordered the diablo and were disappointed. First off, the chicken breast was halved so you are only getting half thin chicken breast. Definitely cutting corners to save $ for a place to charging $23 for a spicy chicken sandwich. Second the menu says everything is prepared fresh. Fries were frozen. You can tell they are not cut in-house. The only thing that is done in-house is frozen fries being fried and that's fine but come on, I counted 12 pieces of fries. Again skimping out. Third, brioche was stale. They also have a BBQ chicken sandwich that is made with BBQ sauce. Why am i talking about another sandwich? well... Since my chicken sandwich was so dry i asked for bbq sauce. Upon asking for some, they advised that they didn't have bbq sauce. They flat out lied. How do you not have bbq sauce when your other menu item claims it has bbq sauce in the sandwich. From our observation the service is very disorganized, waiters are not communicating and chefs are simply cooks who are trying their best but the place is so MID read more

What a wonderful surprise. No idea why we never ate here before but dined there last night. Outside on a perfect evening. They just dropped off. a little plate with 2 different cheeses and some meat. Really nice touch. We had simple food (burger and panini) but the menu had some really interesting dishes which we will try on a future visit. Exceptional coffee and chocolate cake that was shockingly delicious Service was terrific from our young waitress and the owners walking around making sure all was going as it should. read more

This restaurant has an amazing ambiance, very laid back. The servers are very friendly. I had the falafel with sweet potato fries. Out of this world delicious! My bf had a fried chicken sandwich which was also a 10/10! I also had a $16 margarita which was delicious, worth every penny. read more

The grilled dates salad was amazing. Loved the truffle chicken sandwich (although note that there is a considerable amount of bread - it's two layers) and Mint burger. Nice little market in the front. Would definitely come back! read more

Very nice local place in the middle of Tarrytown. Restaurant in the back of the specialty foods store was surprisingly good.

I dined here and wasn't expecting the great hospitality service from staff and owners. Sister company to pick Nik, Michelin guided with delicious food. I wish I had pictures to share. There's patio and interior seating surrounded by timeless art decor mixed with a small butcher/cheese shop. Ordered the leak soup, ravioli mushroom, and paella. Everything was light and wholesome. Family style dining served with bread and oil appetizer. The quality of ingredients is well paired. My favorite was the leak soup. Yet the paella was full of flavor and generous shrimp and clams. The ravioli was really tasty with their light sauce. The owners had a nice conversation that broaden the history of their journey. I will definitely return and also try their bbq eatery on the same street. Water closets are located past deli station in middle of dining hall. Great place for dates or casual outings. read more

One of my friends and I hadn't been out to dinner together in a while, so we decided to meet up one weeknight and catch up. We both wanted to try somewhere new, and after some browsing I found Mint. The place had good reviews and since we were both surprised we had not heard of it before, we decided to check it out for dinner. Mint lies on Main Street, right in the heart of Tarrytown. I love the river towns and Tarrytown is no exception, there's so much to do here and a lot of great restaurants. Mint blends in perfectly with its surroundings and has a real welcoming curb appeal. Upon entry, I noticed that the business was kind of two-in-one. The front was more of a quick service spot with an ordering counter and display cases with food. As you walked towards the back it opens up into a table service restaurant. I was getting cafe aesthetics - lots of exposed brick and plants everywhere. They also had a lot of merchandise to sell towards the front so I was getting specialty food store vibes as well. The menu isn't too large, but they have a big selection of sandwiches, salads, and burgers - really lots of creative options, I was impressed. We decided to start with the charcuterie board which contained four different types of cheeses as well as some meats and a jam to tie it all together. This was really great - our server took the time to explain all the components of the board to us. The standout for me was the pesto cheese - great flavor and really smooth. For my main I decided on the Hawaiian Sandwich, which contained breaded chicken, pineapple, and a tangy barbecue sauce. The sandwich was good, and I paired it with truffle fries that had great truffle flavor. We couldn't resist dessert, especially after our server told is that the pistachio cheesecake was imported from Italy. The cake was great, super light with good pistachio flavor. Service was excellent, there was one server manning all the tables and he did an excellent job balancing them all. I felt like he might have been a manager or something because of the way he carried himself. Either way, he was excellent. Overall, Mint was an excellent find. I'm glad I tried it out and will definitely add it to my go-tos in Tarrytown. read more

We were not impressed with the food we ordered at Mint. The only dish that was decent was the squash burrata. The Moroccan chicken, tuna entree and Caesar salad were not particularly tasty.
