Choice of Thai or Indian meals- stick tonone cuisine or mix and match. Lovely location close to the water and the fit out was really lovely. Staff were efficient but not overly friendly. The food arrived quickly after we ordered. Hot and fresh.... we started with pappadums. Then an entree each and our mains--all Indian choices. Great spices and aromas
So I went in to order a take away and wish I was staying in, the place is stunning. Great date night location. Beau airily decorated. But the food is lovely. I had a curry and it was yummy! Best korma I have had in a while... The popadoms are so good!!! All in all was lovely and we will be defiantly going for a sit down meal.
Before I went to the Mint Leaf, I'll be honest, I thought it was a take away. Inside though is a large and nicely decorated restaurant, with high ceilings and beautiful lamps. The food was also a pleasant surprise. The Mint Leaf specialises in both Thai and North Indian cuisine which seems like an odd combination but works really well. Both times I have gone I have ordered from the North Indian part of the menu but having tried Mr Mac's Pad Thai I think they do Thai fairly well. I'll have to try that properly next time and update. What I can say is the food I have ordered was wonderful and the service fun and friendly with the perfect amount of interaction for me. My lamb was melt in the mouth, my paratha was just as I wanted it and I am so glad I put my initial assumptions to one side. It is a lovely place to stop by for a meal.
We enjoyed our dinning experience here at Mintleaf last Friday. We went for Indian dishes.
The best paratha I have ever had. The vegetable curry that comes with my chicken biryani was very good with lots of different vegetables. My husband also enjoyed the dish he had which I don't remember what's called. The side dish, Bhindi Bhajee (okra) was good too. Fresh and crispy poppadoms with nice dips.
Friendly service and chilled atmosphere. Overall a restaurant I would recommend to friends and others. Worth a try whether you're a local or on holiday like us.
We didn’t try the Thai food, but the Indian food was really delicious. Full of flavour and delicately spiced. I especially liked our lamb dish. We ordered a single rice & naan and that was plenty for two of us. Fantastic food. Would highly recommend.
Very stylish inside, offering tasty food with good service. I had a lovely dining experience here. I chose the Thai menu and everything I had was delicious.
Fantastic place to eat! The service was personable, the atmosphere was fun, and the food was delicious! Definitely worth going to if you’re staying in Leith.
Indian and Thai cuisine fusion! It was pretty unique and interesting. The food was so good; we got Chole Bhature, Sabzi Dhansak and Thai Egg Fried Rice. We really enjoyed our hot food and the customer service was great.
We had a beautiful meal here last night. The staff were incredibly friendly & attentive and made us feel very welcome. One of our party is in a wheelchair and they helped us make sure she was comfortable & well looked after.
The food was delicious and piping hot. Would definitely recommend/visit again.
Food was absolutely delightful. The lady serving us was extremely polite and catered to all our needs. Very good portion sizes too. When i return to Edinburgh for sure i would come back here. Thank you 💙🏴
Haven't been here before ,odd live not far away ,came in early for dinner (was starving:)) fancied a Thai curry (yes I know it's a Indian restaurant:)),portion size was large , authentic Thai curry with just enough bite to keep it interesting,was suprised was quiet, deserves to be packed out, probably due to being early doors . highly recommend (from a Yorkshire man this is fair gushing:))
We are lucky enough for this to be our local. Great menu and the food is always good quality and generous portions. Good location and service.
Visited with a multigenerational group for an early dinner. We were all made very welcome, we tried both Indian & Thai dishes and all of us had different favourites but enjoyed everything. Would definitely visit frequently if I lived locally - or if they moved near me in Colorado, USA. My particular favourites were the green curry and the Murgh Tikka Massalam. Very flavourful.
