Mint Indian Bistro

A favorite among foodies, this stalwart on the east side of town has become so popular it recently opened another location in the southwest. The venue’s philosophy, proclaimed on the official website, is “simple, fresh, flavorful and colorful food that appeals to all five senses.” Boy, does the staff succeed in making that a reality. Specialties include an inferno menu for those looking for extreme heat and a lassi bar featuring about 10 different types of the refreshing Indian fruit shake.
