Ordered take out and loved all of it. We got an order of Paneer Tikki Lababdar, Dal Makhani, naan, and roti. All was super tasty and fresh. Will try other dishes next time! read more

Tried their jackfruit cutlet (vegan) after seeing great reviews on Yelp. Didn't disappoint- 5 stars it comes as 4 cutlets. It was tasty, not too oily, not too spicy. A great appetizer. Also got the aloo chaat - 4 stars as chana/chickpea was cooked but little tough. Since their green chutney has yougurt, they substituted it for ketchup and tamarind sauce. Overall good food, was a quick takeout. Although I didn't dine in, the space looks new, clean. Will come back to try other items on the menu. read more

I loved this spot. We went on a Sunday for lunch and it was empty. Which seemed off putting at first... until we realized this is definitely a hidden gem. The food was SO good, and even though it's an all vegetarian restaurant, you don't have to be a vegetarian to enjoy their dishes whole heartedly! The interior was so cute and very well kept. The service was kind and gave some great recommendations. Out of all the Indian food restaurants we've tried in the area, (and my boyfriend is Indian so we eat a LOT of Indian food HA!) this is one of my top top choices. I'm very excited to return for more. Happy eating:) read more

PepperMint Indian Restaurant - Indian Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

We've been here a handful of times since my initial review and the food has been consistently good. Each time we have come though, we have wanted to order certain menu items or drinks and were told they don't have them. I don't understand why you would have an extensive menu but then keep telling guests that they cannot order items that are listed. Additionally, we received an electronic coupon from Madras Groceries for $10 off from 9/12-9/14 so we went today and carried out food. However, when we presented the coupon, we were told it is no longer valid but if we wanted it, we should go to Madras Groceries and get it. This makes no sense and makes me think that they just didn't want to honor it and it left a bad impression. The coupon clearly states that it should be valid (see picture). TL;DR -- good food, service needs improvement. read more

The food and service here is always amazing. The vegetable biryani and cheese stuffed mushrooms are incredible. Any paneer dish and naan here is great. I get something new everytime and am never disappointed. read more

Had an incredible lunch here today! I was genuinely impressed by the quality of every dish. From the starters to the coffee, everything tasted remarkably fresh and made-to-order. The jackfruit cutlets were a standout, and the Gulab Jamun dipped in Rabdi was absolutely phenomenal. If you're looking for authentic, high-quality North Indian vegetarian food, I hope you give this place a try. PS the menu is vegetarian only read more

The flavors were on point. The daal makhni was not filled with cream like other places do and malai kofta wasn't as sweet, just the right amount. The quantity was less I feel, for $15 fish appetizer there were only 6 pieces. The breads were actually made in tandoor and were crispy and fresh. The service was good and place inside is not bad too. I would be coming back to try other dishes. They don't have a long menu which is nice as it doesn't get too overwhelming. It is on the the pricier end but worth it. read more

Went for the first time this past weekend and very impressed. I think they've changed their menu as the offering is now all vegetarian. The food was absolutely delicious and perfectly spiced, I highly recommend it, we'll be back! We got the peas pulao rice dish, the dal makhani, Paneer Tikka Lababdar, Vegetable Dopiaza with side of Raita and fresh roti. read more

So this was another Indian restaurant for a while which I never got to try. Left town and came back to find a Peopermint in its place. The other place seemed fast casual but this is a full sit down dining experience. The room is quite stark white but is a significant upgrade from the other place I remember passing. The food is very tasty and light. My friend ordered a ton of stuff and we didn't feel too full . The server is quite friendly/outgoing and has many suggestions. Definitely going to come back and try sone of the other items as the menu is quite large. read more

I love the name of this restaurant. The food tastes great! I think it is actually on the milder side, which is good for most people. Service-wise, i had to go to the counter to pay my bill. The staff is friendly though. I think the dining room could use more art-work on the wall. Also, they are competing in a South-Indian shopping center and this is going to be tough for them. I wish them the best of luck. read more

Great ambiance and setting and still the same great food as it was under the Social Chicken name. It is owned by the same owner with expanded menu. The service was fast, loved the addition of the absolutely tasty Potato Chaat to the menu and highly recommend it as an appetizer. The butter chicken was also amazing and tender. Will definitely come back soon. read more

We were in the area running errands & stopped by for lunch. Ordered samosas, butter chicken, saffron rice, garlic nan & a side dish. Service was excellent. Plenty of parking. The food was delish & generous portions. Nice sealed to go containers as we had plenty of leftovers. Nicely air conditioned. Was not very crowded, but we were there on the early side of lunch around 11am. I also had a mango lassi which was great. read more

PepperMint Indian Restaurant - Saffron rice, butter chicken, garlic nan, chicken vindaloo - Indian Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

This place used to be Butter Chicken Social but now with an expanded menu and sit down! We came to try and got: - palak paneer - super creamy - I'd call it the Indian version of creamed spinach - paneer butter masala - I was expecting something like butter chicken sauce but found it more tomato-y like more tikka masala like - yellow daal - this was only $6???? So good and the best deal with the portion! Extra fiber since it's lentils and less heavy since it's not creamy - rice - plain naan - butter naan The curries and lentils were delicious! Not too spicy, creamy, smooth, and flavorful. The paneer was soft and delicious! Thankfully they didn't skimp on them either! Definitely stood out in my opinion even with the bigger cubes. I was actually not super impressed with the naan because i usually like the fluffier naan and this was crispier. The bottom was a little burnish than I'd liked too. It made it harder to dip or wrap around the paneer cubes. We were the only ones in the place for a while but our food took quite some time to come out. The place was pretty, so I hope they figure out service and that all goes well as they go into grand opening! read more

As a non-Indian Asian, I enjoyed PepperMint. It's a casual dining place that is located where the old McDonald's was. The food is flavorful, and the server was attentive. I don't know why it doesn't have more customers when we were there for Saturday lunch. I totally recommend the samosa chaat, the tandoori chicken platter sizzler (weekend only), and the butter chicken, very nice. The curry for butter chicken is smooth and delicious. The only downside of the butter chicken is that there is not enough chicken to go with the curry. It's that good. The garlic naan was delicious. And we also enjoyed the Kerala fried chicken in the non-vegetarian platter sizzler. It's on the pricey side. But give it a try when you are in Sunnyvale. read more

We went to this place for the first time last weekend and followed it up with this weekend as well. Both occasions we were thoroughly impressed with the amazing food as well the service. Ambiance was inviting. We had the sweet corn veg soup, jackfruit cutlets, aloo tikka, methi chilly paratha, garlic naan, kofta as well as paneer lababdaar. Everything was fantastic. The person who attended to us was very helpful and courteous. Highly recommend this place for an Indian vegetarian treat. read more

Amazing food from the same old MC owner. Their chicken dishes are delicious. Service was prompt. read more

Just wanted to give a shout out to Peppermint restaurant. We catered food from them for an event yesterday, including a live chaat station. Food was delicious and everyone loved it. Especially the chaats, jackfruit cutlet , chai, paneer lababdar and rabdi jamun dessert. Neat, well organized, professional and reasonably priced. Definitely recommend! read more

The butter chicken is indeed good as recommended by other reviewers. It is creamy and delicious. It has 6 pieces of chicken. Would come again just for this. The sizzling platters (non-veg) is good but not as good as the curry. It is tender and soft as expected. read more

Went for the weekend brunch and really enjoyed it. Got the lucchi (essentially hearty pooris) and they were delish with the dal. Masala Omelette with toast took us back to our childhood days. Since they don't have omelette paratha we ordered a mix veg paratha and that was below average. Very doughy and not enough seasoning or salt. That said. Will be back. Service is really pleasant. And the restaurant is clean, bright and welcoming. read more

Service was excellent. Snowdone our server was very pleasant and went above and beyond to make us comfortable. He is very very kind and thoughtful. We had to wait for some time prior to ordering all food, for our family member to arrive, and he graciously allowed us to wait inside. Food was also very good. We had kheema and boti kababs, both were very tasty and meat was juicy. All in all 5/5 on service and food! read more

I came here two times already with a few friends and enjoy the food both times! Although I am a non-Indian Asian, my friends are Indian and showed me to this restaurant. All of us really love the food and we got a variety of different curries, side, dishes, and nouns and everything was on point. The dishes were flavorful, and the portions were generous. I especially really like the garlic naan! Overall, the ambience is nice with clean and bright decor. Our server was attentive, and the food came out in a decently fast. Finally, for how large the portions are, the prices are also very reasonable for the area. I'm definitely coming back whenever I'm in the area! read more

We visited for the very first time today for dinner and I couldn't be more impressed. We were greeted and sat immediately. A minimalist yet extremely clean place. It was fairly quiet with just one other family dining. We got great recommendations and ended up ordering the Samosa Chat for an appetizer, chicken sizzler, chicken tikka masala, 1 side of basmati rice and 1 side of saffron rice, garlic naan, and masala chai. All of that was perfect for 2 of us and even had some leftovers. Everything was plated nicely, and the flavors and presentation were very present. 10/10 experience and I will definitely be back. read more

We ordered Navratan Kurma from here. Extremely disappointed with the quality. Had only frozen vegetables like peas,corn & carrots. That's not how it's made originally. Overall first experience was not great. read more

This restaurant used to be called "Butter chicken Social", which was good, and I enjoyed dining there several times. Upon arrival, one would order the food and pay at the front counter (with menu items shown on wall-mounted flatscreen TVs behind the counter).. You would then seat yourself at any table you like. Water was provided on the table, just grab clean glasses at the drink counter, which also has a fridge with self service sodas and other drinks. Drinking straws and to-go containers & bags were also found there. When the food is ready, it's delivered to your table. Basically, it worked similarly to how a Sizzler's steak house does it. With the name change to Peppermint (same staff as before at the counter, not sure about the cook/chef), the restaurant became full sitdown, you get a printed menu after being seated by the staff, food and drinks are ordered through a the waiter. Peopermint's menu has many of the same or similar items as the old bus, with some additions that weren't there before. One thing I immediately noticed was a price increase on the items that existed before, yet the things that once came as part of the dish (such as garlic naan or basmati rice) are now extra cost add-ons. Since it's a sitdown style with full waiter service, a tip is no longer optional. Essentially, the change amounts to a multi-leveled price hike! We spent significantly more on a meal at Peppermint than an equivalent when it was Butter Chicken Social. What's more disappointing is some food items don't taste as good as it used to. The rice wasn't like it was, and the kerala fried chicken changed flavors. It's now too salty. Not happy, and won't return. read more

We ate here for the first time last night and we'll definitely be back. We really enjoyed the food and the service was very good. I especially liked the Paneer Tikka and the Paneer Butter Masala. We also tried Samosas, Palak Paneer, Lacha Paratha, Garlic Naan and Raitha. All were flavorful and delicious. read more

I noticed that this place has nearly a 5-star average on Google... well now I know why. The waiter spent our entire meal hovering around our table, constantly trying to push us to the most expensive dishes, and then having the nerve to ask for a 5-star review on... you guessed it... Google! I'm all for small businesses working hard to be successful - but better to focus on letting your customers have an enjoyable meal of their choosing than to stage-manage their whole experience all the way to their Google review! ‍ read more

The ambiance was casual , only one server in the whole restaurant. We ordered the non veg sizzler , veg sizzler and garlic nan and cheese chilli kulcha . The sizzlers came first and the nan and kulcha came towards the end . The non veg sizzler was okay but the veg sizzler only had the tandoori soya and rest of the things like Hara kabob were fried and not fully cooked. They lacked flavor.The service was below expectations. read more
