No meat or taste how are you going to put the ingredients on the menu and then don’t have the right ingredients in the meal. Trash!

It is a comfortable atmosphere and the staff is knowledgeable and cheerful.

Diner Review №5

This is the most delicious and authentic Thai food I have had in New Orleans. And their lunch menu is incredible, I would highly recommend going. I always order the Pad See Ew, it’s so delicious. 10/10!

Diner Review №6

Best Thai food in New Orleans.

Diner Review №7

Nice Thai food!

Diner Review №8

Very tasty. Great service. Good portions.

Diner Review №9

Loved the Pad Thai and fair prices. The fried tofu was okay, the sauce for it was delicious, but I've had better fried tofu. Def recommend for the pad thai, though, and they give you a good amount of food!

Diner Review №10

Great lunch today the service was fantastic. Starters were the cup of soup with a veggie roll. The soup was super flavorful. We then had the Mussaman Curry which has a wonderful flavor not spicy at all. Also ordered the Pad Thai that also had a wonderful flavor but a bit more spicy but not overpowering. It was a great lunch and would highly recommend this place for lunch or dinner. We’ll definitely dine here again next trip to NOLA.

Diner Review №11

I tried Thai Mint because I wanted something that was not fast food and not too expensive. I walked in about 30 minutes before they closed for lunch. There is bar seating and there are many tables. I ordered the beef red curry. Before my entree came out, I was given a bowl of soup and a spring roll. The hot and sour soup was a 10/10! The curry had hints of coconut milk and a little bit of spice. My total was less than $16 w/ gratuity. Awesome place for lunch!

Diner Review №12

The food is real good, the portions are real small for the lunch specials, maybe the entrees are bigger.

Diner Review №13

Unbelievably good. Service was excellent. The food was wonderful. There were plenty of tables available when we got there but it filled up fast Tom yum soup was so flavorful as were the Pad Kee Mao and the red curry. They make their own chili oil and it can't be beat. Presentation was beautiful.

Diner Review №15

GREAT Penang curry, very kind staff

Diner Review №16

I was craving Thai food & came over to try them out. The hot and sour soup was phenomenal! I ordered the Thai Garlic lunch special with chicken as my protein. I ate every bite. Very good. Oh, and this ginger honey tea! Yasss! My waiter was kind & attentive as well. The lunch special here is $10 & with a hot tea, my total was $15.30 before tip. I'll definitely return.

Diner Review №17

First timer. Had lunch. Pad Thai, Fried Tilapia and vegetables, and Thai fried rice, all dishes were good. Service was excellent. Lunch plate was served with soup and egg roll. Both were good as well.
The overall experience was good.

Diner Review №18

Flies around. Restroom tap is broken. Food is slow

Diner Review №20

Another delicious meal at Thai Mint. We started with Tom Kha soup, then Cashew Chicken and Pad Kee Moa (spicy sauce on flat noodles). Ended with mango sticky rice - yummy! Service with a smile from the friendly staff.

Diner Review №21

Please stop in and try this place!! They truly understand customer service, and you will be greeted with a smile. Food is fabulous and delicious. Offers vegetarian and meat options. The stir fried rice aegg tolls are well prepared.

Diner Review №22

I stopped into Thai Mint for a solo dinner and had a great experience. The waitress was so sweet and attentive and the food was incredible. I got the Thai Soft Spring Rolls and the Chicken Pad Thai. Both were fantastic. I ended up taking most of the Pad Thai home so I had lunch the next day! I highly recommend this spot for some good Thai :)

Diner Review №23

Very delicious red curry, and the dumplings, both fried and steamed, were top notch. This is a wonderful place for very good prices.

Diner Review №24

Some of the best Tom Kha in the city!

Diner Review №27

Favorite Thai place in New Orleans, hands down! I've visited a dozen times over the years - food is consistently great and portions are large. Drunken Noodles are the best, but I also love their curries and pineapple fried rice. Everything here is good.

Diner Review №28

Very nice

Diner Review №29

Diner Review №30

Delicious Thai food and good service. Dine in service also came with a very tasty soup that was not included when I got the same meal as take out. I look forward to going again for some good dine in Thai.

Diner Review №31

Yummy pad Thai in a quiet, laid back setting. Perfect for conversation and enjoying your dish.

Diner Review №36

My favorite Thai restaurant in the city. Delicious! The cheese rolls are the BEST!!!

Diner Review №37

Blown away by how AWESOME the takeout was. The yellow curry is INSANELY good. The pad thai is a little spicy for me, but it was still delicious. Some of the best takeout in the city IMO.

Diner Review №38

Solid Thai food. I especially liked the red curry.

Diner Review №39

Great food and great service.

Diner Review №41

The person who took my order was very rude.

Diner Review №42

got take out. extremely overpriced for small portions. ordered a shrimp salad and legitimately received three large pieces of lettuce and two shrimp (and forgot the dressing, to boot). mind you they charged me $12 for it. went back and requested a refund or a new meal to replace what they tried to pass off as a meal and they refused then proceeded to give me a single extra shrimp. you cannot make this up. terrible terrible terrible. I am laughing at how unreal the situation is. just got robbed.

Came here for dinner with my husband, brother and sister in law! We absolutely love this place. Everything is always so fresh and delicious! My husband always gets the yellow curry and says it is exactly the same as when he was in Thailand! Super authentic!! We also ordered the Green Curry, Pad See U and Pad Kee Mao! Everything was amazing!! Would 10/10 recommend!

Good food great service

Diner Review №59

I love this place! The food is great, the parking not so much. I only wish that they used a delivery service, uber eats or doordash. I work about 10 minutes from the restaurant a delivery service would be great so I would not use a lot of my lunch break looking for parking.

Diner Review №71

The food was good but the Pad Se U was missing something that I can’t quite put my finger on. The Thai Fried Rice was delicious. I would recommend but not sure I would eat again.

Diner Review №72

Very good, small and clean, will do again.

Diner Review №73

I love me some thai food and this was my first time at thai mint, i ordered the curry noodles. Soooo goood i wanted to order another one!! I only gave them 4 stars only because the food took a little while. Besides that everything was delicious!!

Diner Review №74

Excellent food and service

Diner Review №75

The spicy basil rice is really good and the flavor is not overwhelming well balanced in spice.

Diner Review №76

Love the food! Great people

Diner Review №77

Diner Review №80

I simply ask why ppl in the back had no mask. They said if im not comfty dont get the food. I simply asked a question. I would not eat here as they are taking zero precautions.

Diner Review №81

Arrogant at customers, initially food was good but one time the food was terrible(half cooked rice) I let the person know that day. On the next visit I reminded them about my bad experience. Their simple response it is what is, we can not guarantee food will be good/cooked well. Not going to visit this place again.

Diner Review №82

Diner Review №83

Diner Review №86

Very kind and attentive staff. Food is delicious. Great for vegans and vegetarians.

Diner Review №87

The food here is very good

Diner Review №88

Very impressed! My husband & I ordered take-out (chicken green curry & shrimp Pad Thai). The food was ready within 15 minutes, but still warm by the time we picked it up & finally returned home. Food still warm 45 minutes after being prepared? That’s remarkable! The food was also packaged in a way that made it difficult to spill *during transport* but easy to eat. The two lunch-sized portions we shared were sufficient for both of us. We would definitely order from Thai Mint again. Thank you for the delicious experience!

Diner Review №89

Diner Review №90

Fast service & relatively good. However, the meat of both my entree & my appetizer was a little tough.

Diner Review №91

We wanted to love this place as these reviews are glowing. If you are looking for authentic Thai, this is NOT the place to go. Too much coconut milk in both curries we ordered, not spicy at all, ginger tea was PRESWEEETENED and undrinkable. They used pho noodles for pad see ew and didn't char the beef and so at best, it was a pho stirfry. Everything too sweet, Americanized. The worst part is that we were early, only 2 other tables, ordered no appetizers and it took 55 minutes to get this mediocre food that I can make better at home. We asked the waitress twice when the food would be ready and she kept stalling that it was almost ready...with still 30 minutes to go! Other tables were getting food left and right but super slow too. If it is going to take 20 more minutes, just tell us. So we can get up and go next door where food is 4 times better. They are all very nice in here, but nice isn't what I'm expecting from a Thai place. Quality is. The only redeeming dish was the pineapple fried rice. Wow.

Diner Review №92

Diner Review №93

My absolute favorite Thai restaurant. That’s comparing a LOT of places, too.

Diner Review №94

Favorite Thai restaurant in town. Family owned place that is usually pretty quiet during the week. The spring rolls are delish!

Diner Review №95

Friendly service and good food.

Diner Review №96

Soooo good. I order lunch here today. And the food was delicious. Full of flavor! The lunch plates also come with white rice and a spring roll. The food was ready quickly and was fresh and hot. Definitely give this place a try next time you are craving Thai food. I order the Thai basil chicken and Thai spicy shrimp fried rice. Not pictured is Thai garlic chicken and veggies which was also delicious.

Diner Review №128

First time my wife and I ever eaten here. My wife and I love Thai food and I believe you would too if you give them a try! Service was really good and the food was outstanding!!! You would not go wrong or leave hungry from here. They give you a complimentary crispy egg roll but I’m sure that’s not the correct name for it and the food comes out quickly. So give them a try you won’t regret eating there You will Love Thai food after visiting here.

Diner Review №129

Diner Review №130

Good portion size. Had the curry noodles, which had a nice spice level and good component ratios. The thai tea is quite good as wellm

Diner Review №131

A great experience, and quick service. This place is pretty easy to miss with everything going on in the city, but it was totally worth finding parking to eat here!

Diner Review №132

Diner Review №133

Lunch specials are fantastic! Just enough food to not feel overall full. Our waiter was extremely quick and efficient even though it was his birthday! It seemed like a quiet spot but it was earlier in the lunch time!

Diner Review №134

Diner Review №135

I get food here quite often. Always good, customizable. Friendly staff. If you want your food to be really spicy make sure you ask, as they tend to go easy on the spice. Food is great though.

Thai Mint is my favorite restaurant in New Orleans. Everything I have tried is delicious, from the Thai tea to the Pad Thai. I highly recommend!

Diner Review №150

Diner Review №151

Highly recommend the ginger chicken

Diner Review №152

The food here is great! I would eat it more if they actually had working phones. I’ve been telling them for weeks (and so have several other regulars) that their phones don’t work and they literally don’t care..... makes me want to get my Thai fix elsewhere.

Delicious. We got the pork chop and steak pho. Very satisfying.

Diner Review №178

This is only for the lunch; however if you pop in from 11-2:30 you can get the lunch menu. I ordered the basil eggplant with shrimp today and asked for hot which was the spiciest option on the menu. We were started with a spring roll and a small cup of a type of hot and sour soup with chicken and tofu. The soup was tasty and the spring roll was hot and crunchy. My entree was served with white rice and had excellent basil flavor; the shrimp and veggies were cooked well (though the onion may have been on the underdone side) though I learned I should have asked for "Thai hot." Total was $11.06 plus tip. Not bad for a work lunch!

Diner Review №179

Go to Thai place

Diner Review №180

Mediocre food. Less desirable atmosphere. Suko Thai better.

Diner Review №181

Never can go wrong with their Pad Thai!!

Diner Review №182

Diner Review №183

We visited on a Monday night. The food took a very long time to come. Requested the food be very spicy. It came out mild. Ordered a pork dish but seafood was mixed in. White rice was mushy and when a new bowl was requested was told it is "Thai" style, which is of course nonsense - it was poorly-made, mushy rice. I would not revisit this restaurant.

Diner Review №184

Great food especially the Thai Shrimp Rice and Crispy Spring Rolls.
