The Mint Room – Clifton

really good food and lovely waiters. Not too expensive given the quality of the food. Went at 6 and were the first there. beware - sparkling water is £5.50 a bottle which is more then the beer!

Intimate surroundings, attentive service and high class food make for an excellent dining experience. Not your typical curry house- more of an avant garde playground experimenting with a fusion of Indian and European sensibilities.

Have been to the mint rooms a few times before and thought it amazing but our visit there on Saturday was very disappointing. We were sat down at the table 40 mins after our booking and that was asking 4 times if we could go to the table. We had to ask for everything - the menu, drinks, if we could order etc. The restaurant was just too busy and the staff didn't seem to have time to serve us at all. Such a shame as its one of our favourite restaurants in bristol.

This is Indian food at its finest in terms of the quality of ingredients, presentation and service. My paneer makhani was a beautifully fine and creamy sauce and I could taste ithe sauce was made with fresh tomatoes. The food was exquisite and everything was perfectly cooked, (crispy bit soft in the middle Nan's, goregeous rice with no nasty artificial colorant additives and delicately spiced) no sign of any oil. The pinot noir wine by the glass was high quality (wines are clearly carefully selected for the wine list) and the service was professional, courteous, friendly and caring. We were asked several times how the food was and my feeling was that any problem would have been handled well (although the only problem was I couldn't eat any more!). This is my favourite restaurant- gorgeous designer decor, food, wine and service- a treat! Note it is very popular so I would highly recommend booking in advance.

Great food once again - the tasting menu is good value, and the flavours are superb. Good service and a nice ambiance in the restaurant. We'll be back again.

We called to change our booking time and the restaurant were very accommodating. Once we arrived the service was exceptional, dwarfed only by the quality of the food. The Mint Room came highly recommended to me and did not disappoint!

Fantastic food , good service , humour which was great :)) Will definitely be paying another visit soon Well done to all involved in making our visit , one to remember

Very good service, interesting menu with many new takes on well known dishes as well as new ones which we had not tried before. Well done!

Really unique restaurant with excellent food. Would highly recommend when you are looking for that extra special place for an occasion. 7 dish tasting menu was superb

Excellent food and a very pleasant experience will recommend to friends and family

A real delight to have proper Indian cuisine in an Indian restaurant which is not takeaway food on a plate. Good service and friendly staff.

Food delicious as previously, but as the restaurant was very busy, the service was lacking unfortunately. Had to get up and ask if we could order drinks, and then food, which I don't expect to have to do.

Excellent food! The restaurant is a bit further out the centre though. Loved the treat at the end of our lunch, surprising and original :)

Great friendly service and amazing tasty food, we went as a family and can't wait to go back! Would recommend the sorbet selection! Great night of tasty food!

Great restaurent great food very knowledgeable staff easy to find nice atmosphere but best to prebook a table as was quote busy when we arrived

Great, fresh and yummy food! Staff all very friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend to any of my friends and family any time. Gorgeous decor as well!

Poor service Treated very badly I did not feel that they wanted us there. Arrogant and snooty waiters Poor quality food and tiny portion sizes

Amazing service, superb decor, and most importantly the food was exquisite. I would describe as "very posh Indian with a twist". Staff here are brilliant and gave excellent advice on what dishes went well together and advice on suggested wines for particular dishes too. Average cost for table of 4 here would be about £180 including drinks. Not cheap but more than worth it.

A very pleasant, relax, ambiance and excellent food. My scallop starter was perfectly cooked and spiced. My main of halibut was also cooked really well and was topped with a fresh spicy crust that really enhanced the dish – super nice Indian food!

Fantastic Food! The staff were amazing!the perfect backdrop to celebrate my birthday.

Great restaurant, food really well cooked and presented with some really unusual but successful dishes. 5 out of 6 rather than 6 as cocktails really not quite right.

The menu was interesting and the food was good however the table was very cramped for 8 people and as a consequence was very hot.

Great service, lamb was a little too rare but the chicken lababdor was a big hit with my husband.suggested wines for dishes a nice touch.

The setting is superb the staff go out of there way to make your evening special and the food was excellent I would recommend it to anyone.

Lovely meal. Great to have fine Indian Dining in Bristol. Staff were attentive and helpful but not overly so. Good atmosphere. Will come again for sure.

Great food and great service, waiter gave good advice. Would like to go back to try the taster menu to experience the full range on offer

Excellent food, beautifully presented. This restaurant is buzzing, friendly, efficient and well organised. I can't fault any aspect of our meal for 4 last night. Definitely give it a try. Parking in Clifton can be awkward before 9pm though, due to the residents scheme.

Excellent! Superb food, great service and a lovely location. We shall certainly be returning! And, I recommend the chef specials. They are to die for!

Wonderful evening with friends, food was delicious and the service was very attentive. Was our 2nd visit and shall be returning again in the future

Very good. Had a wonderful evening. The food was fantastic. Great experience. The staff where really helpful. Will most definitely be going back sometime soon.

Brilliant restaurant. This was our second visit and we loved the food and speed of service. Only slight issue we had was being made to feel like we weren't ordering enough. We ordered a mains each and a couple of sides but kept getting asked are we sure we don't want more as others usually order more. As we had eaten there before we knew the potion sizes were good and what we ordered was more than enough. I gave a good tip as we really enjoyed the meal, but as soon as we had paid the guy serving us seemed to loose interest and almost seemed disappointed with us. Other than being made to feel we didn't order enough the food was brilliant and I would recommend, despite the odd service.

The location is great ! Food was perfect !! The best Indian food I ever tasted !! The only thing needs improving was the service : a bit slow! However, the restaurant was fully booked and it was a Saturday night !

The restaurant was due to busy and this was explained. But our main arrived before our starters had been cleared and it was just warm. They were very quick not to charge for one of the mains. The service was ok but fine dining it wasnt

The food was delicious , and the service was great. Attentive but unobtrusive. Will definitely be going back. Also, will be recommending The Mint Room to all my friends and family.

Excellent food, service, buzzy atmosphere couldn't fault the evening in any way! The Mint Room, is a fantastic Resturant, keep up with the good work and you won't go wrong! Thank you for a very enjoyable evening.

Lovely time had by all, great service and great food, it was one of the guests birthday and they were made to feel very special. Shall be returning.

Myself and my wife had a lovely meal, the service was excellent and the food was extremely good. I will certainly return and can recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking for a great meal with superb service.

Great meal - really high quality ingredients and flavours that is a long way from your typical curry house. Very attentive, friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Great food beautifully served Excellent service. Modern take on indian classics plus new innovative dishes with indian spicing in an unobtrusive but effective way Recomended

Lovely food as always, would be nice to see one or two plain food options for children, slightly challenging to get a 4 year old something she would eat. As expected from this restaurant the staff went out of their way to try & find something she could eat. It was a real nice Xmas menu for the rest of us, loved it

Fantastic food in a fantastic environment with fantastic service. Everything about this restaurant is good. It is not the average curry house. The food is much better.

i came with four friends as my choice for our curry club all these have never been before but all agreed it was the best indian they had ever had i was confident this would be the case once again the food the service was excellent thanks and see you soon

Went on a Saturday night, very busy, Food and service excellent again, had the haloumi starter delicious, chicken tikka as a main also delicious and well presented.

Greeting & service was very poor. Staff didn't seem to know what they were doing. One waitress looked bored. Almost like she thought she shouldn't be waitressing. Had to chase up main, drinks & coffee. Food saved the day - excellent.

The food was amazing and the staff were brilliant great experience and will definately be going back for more. Seriously recommend this place to anyone!

Excellent meal. Lovely surroundings and the staff are friendly and professional. Would definitely recommend to a friend as it's not your typical Indian restaurant. Excellent cocktails (kucumber cooler is fab).

Probably the best experience of Indian food I have ever tasted , the service was very good all of the waiters and waitresses were very attentive

We had a fantastic evening at The Mint Room for New Years Eve. Great food, friendly and attentive service, busy and vibrant atmosphere, no complaints.

as always it was great food, great service in nice surroundings the only draw back is lack of parking but worth the effort and short walk.

Great food and good service, with a slight twist on some Indian dishes. A throughly enjoy lunch and would definitely visit again and recommend to others
