I did not enjoy this Thai Food as much. I ordered the Yellow Curry with Chicken. Could have been better. Tasted a bit weird, and very very bland. My Boyfriend got this beef dish, I'm not quite sure what it was but after trying a bite of it, I'm not quite sure I enjoyed it too much either. If you want good Thai food in the Area, I highly recommend Sukho Thai on Magazine. They have a lot of variety and their Yellow Curry is Perfectly spiced and SPICY! read more

It's a cute place near my school. I like how it's fast service and everyone was friendly. They offered catfish as one of their lunch options. The portion size was a little small compared to the price, but it was worth it. I'll definitely come back again. I want to try their pad Thai and compared to other Thai restaurants around New Orleans area. read more

The Massaman Curry is fantastic - nice people as well. But they lose a star because they literally NEVER. ANSWER. THE. PHONE. After nearly a year of trying and failing to place pick-up orders, I finally asked what in the world was the deal tonight. I was told they "don't have a phone." ??? Then when I came back to pick my food up, I was charged a "take-out fee" (!) So in summary, if you want a take-out order, try someplace else. They literally have zero interest in your business. If you're up for a sit-down treat, definitely check this place out. read more

I love this place so much. The restaurants staff is very friendly and great with service. The restaurant is clean and the food is delicious. I go to this place at least twice a month for the pad Kee mao(drunken noodle) and the red curry. Both dishes are my favorite but I recently went with a best friend of mine and tried her pad Thai and it was also delicious. I don't want this place to become Too crowded because it's amazing but at the same time the world needs to know just how good the food is and that there are servers and waiters who know how to treat customers with respect. read more

We ordered four items for takeout. Three of the items were actually good but the fourth item wasn't what we ordered. To cap it all off, when we ordered they claimed it would take 40 minutes because of heavy traffic. When I got to the location after 35 minutes the tables were 1/3 full, making their claim of being backed up suspect. I was also notified that my food was still 20 minutes from being complete. After waiting for 60 minutes since I ordered, I was told that my food was still 5 minutes away. I finally got my food 75 minutes after ordering it. Moral of the story: budget yourself over an hour I'm waiting for your food, and expect that something in your order is going to be wrong. read more

Best Thai food in the city. The staff are friendly, the atmosphere is casual enough for friends and cozy enough for a date, and the food is authentic. Started our date night with wine and beer, and the cheese roll app: fried wonton with cream cheese, crab and veggies. My husband called it a fancy crab Rangoon. The way they're folded though creates great crispy edges that I love. Then we shared a Tom Kha Shrimp soup. The coconut milk broth has a very delicate texture, and superb flavor. For our entree I couldn't decide between curry and noodles, so we shared the Curry Noodle, a mix of traditional Thai noodle dish ingredients with a curry spiced sauce. The curry spice with the noodles is absolutely divine. I definitely have a new favorite dish! If you haven't tried the Curry Noodle yet, make it your next order. read more

Cozy Thai spot on Carrollton that serves up super yummy Thai eats! Their menu is huge so you're bound to find something you love. I like their green curry and seafood noodles the best, but everything looks really good. The service is great too! read more

Came here for lunch and got the lunch special. The serving sizes were a little small but I can't complain because it was cheap and I was full afterwards.

I can't wait to The place looks like a random hole in the wall but it is a great choice for lunch. read more

I love love Thai food but my regular go to place has been slacking lately so I decided to try somewhere different. Tiny little place with street parking only and mediocre won ton soup and pad Thai. Sorry just didn't care for either as they both lacked flavor. My lunch date asked for extra spice and his tasted just like mine-bland. Not saying I wouldn't be open to giving them another try,I just don't plan on recommending it any time soon. The complimentary hot and sour soup was a nice touch, just wish it was mentioned when I ordered the won ton soup. read more

MY VOTE FOR BEST THAI IN TOWN Finally this sweet little restaurant on Carrollton is gaining respect! Last year when I told folks what a great deal the $10 or less lunch at Thai Mint was, people invariably thought I meant "Mint Modern". Not now. Today I mentioned to some JCC workout buddies that I was dining here for lunch and gushing compliments ensued. I'D BUY THEIR HOT & SOUR SOUP BY THE VAT! And it's lagniappe along with a tasty spring roll with every entrée. LOTS & LOTS OF VEGGIES You can't help but feel that you're eating somewhat healthy despite the fact that the creamy coconut panang curry probably has more calories than a cheesecake. But oooooh it's smooth! read more

Two days before Chrismas, with shopping all had I was craving some Thai food and craving it bad I thought of my options, thinking with care, In hopes that green curry soon would be there. Our stomachs were settled about what was ahead While visions of spring-roll danced in their heads. And mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my beret, Set out together for a mid-winter forray. We went down Carrollton where streetcars do clatter, And stopped at Thai Mint to each get a platter Seated by the window, waiter quick as a flash, We opened our menus to choose a good hash. The curry on the rice was green and yummy, The chicken and eggplant felt good in my tummy. When, on my mother's plate should appear, But a noodle and chicken dish she said was quite dear. With a little gratis soup and roll, it was good, And the entrees so big we brought food back to our hood. We could but exclaim, as we drove out of sight, "Happy Christmas to all, and more Thai for tonight!" read more

Thai Mint - Thai Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

I think my hunt for my favorite Thai food in Nola has come to an end. It all started with lunch at Thai Mint. I was initially drawn to the very acceptable lunch menu pricing. But I will continue to return for the delicious food and exceptional service! On my first visit I ordered Tom Yum Soup and Red Curry with chicken. First the soup; It was very good, yummy, tomatoey broth with big chunks of quality white meat chicken. It wasn't spicy enough for my liking but I have since figured out they will turn up the heat if you ask. After my first soup the lovely waitress brought out another soup, hot and sour, along with a very light and crispy egg roll. This is part of the lunch special and I was very pleased, two soups is a dream for me. As for the Red Curry, it was also wonderful. The sauce was creamy and flavorful and I adore the amount of veggies used. I can't get over the quality of meat; the white meat chicken pieces were so tender and juicy. Overall my experience was fantastic! Since that life changing lunch I have been back several times and have been making my way around the noodle dishes. I've tried the Pad Kee Mao and the Pad See U, both very tasty. With these dishes I ordered the beef. The quality was still fantastic. The restaurant is very clean and offers a relaxing environment to dine-in. At night they dim the lights and light candles for more of a date-night atmosphere. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Overall, Thai Mint is a wonderful dining experience. Pro tip: If you like spice, make sure to order the spiciest level offered. Don't be scared, it is not quite Thai hot, but in my opinion, it is the perfect level of heat. read more

Came to pick up a to-go order. Paid for my order before it was ready. Waited 30 mins. Another non POC customer comes in doesn't have to pay immediately and got a glass of water while he waited. People were not rude but were not welcoming. The guy then sent me a threatening yelp message. He didn't deny what happened though read more

This is my second time visiting Thai Mint, but this time I came in for lunch. I had no idea they had a specific lunch menu and was pleasantly surprised by the relatively low prices. This time I thought I would try something new and tried the Basil Eggplant. Although the only options on the menu for the "meat" are shrimp, pork, beef, or chicken, they are accommodating to customers dietary restrictions and have vegan and vegetarian options. So in this case, I substituted the meat with fried tofu and extra vegetables. Perfect amount of food for a great price and they even start you off with a soup (unfortunately not vegan) and fried spring roll! I think I were prefer to have a lighter appetizer like a small salad or a raw spring roll to balance out the heaviness of the main order. I definitely will be back again! Accommodating and quick service, great food, and a very comfortable dining area! read more

Enjoyed an intimate setting with yummy Thai food! The restaurant is family owned and are Thai! My favorites I've tried are Pad Thai Cashew Chicken Red Curry Definitely my go-to for Thai food while uptown - lunch specials are the most worth it for the hot/sour soup and egg roll read more

Ok food, but incredibly stingy on to-go orders. I've had the $8.95 beef salad 2-3 times dining in and a handful of takeout orders. My most recent to-go was filled with about a cup of iceberg lettuce, 5 pieces of beef and less than a dozen vegetables total (couple pepper slices, couple cucumber half-wedges, couple of halved cherry tomatoes). The Tom Yum soup is tasty yet overpriced. It's the closest Thai to my house, but the paltry takeout portions will probably keep me from returning. read more

Thai Mint - $9 salad - Thai Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

I really loved the prior That restaurant here, Basil Leaf Thai, and I'm sad its gone as their hot and sour soup was one of my favorite things in the city. This new Thai spot also has a good hot and sour soup but its much more similar to La Thai's (which is also one of my favorites). The food here is generally pretty good and it is certainly one of the top Thai spots in the area. The service can be inconsistent but is usually adequate. I've heard good things about their lunch specials and wish I could get into the area to try them but in the meantime I've had some enjoyable dinners here. read more

Stumbled across this place on eater and figured it be worth trying. And yes it was!!!! Food came out fast. Service was friendly and the taste tickled every taste bud!!!!! Will for sure come back here ! read more

Ordered the panang curry and it was disappointing. Maybe I should have stuck with non curry items. After all, someone else did say that the green curry was meh. I may be back to try one of the stir fry or noodle dishes, especially while Bangkok Thai is closed for remodeling. read more

This is by far my favorite Thai place. The wonton soup is divine- tasty clear broth with fresh bok choy and delicate shrimp wontons. The pad Thai is perfectly spicy with fresh sprouts and peanuts. Beef volcano, any of the curries or fried rices, every dish we've had on the menu has been amazing. The service is prompt and very polite. If only they would answer their phone at night- every time I try to call in for take away I never get an answer. But it's so good I sit and wait for my order. read more

DO NOT VISIT! Went in and half the tables were empty. Server said they were too busy and REFUSED to seat us. The restaurant was literally half empty, only 15 people. Fire this woman, management. She caused you to miss $300 worth of revenue. (went in at 6:30, not close to closing time at all) read more

You know you got some issues when the Chinese restaurant down the street serves more convincing Pad Thai... We went at noon on a Tuesday, and no one else was dining in the business. That was fairly indicative of the quality of the cuisine and the service. Our waitress was mostly in the kitchen during the entire encounter. I had to find her in the kitchen when I discovered a short hair in my eggplant dish. Hair aside (I can almost understand because I'm a crazy long-hair-don't-care hair shedder, but then again I also don't work in food service...), the food was just mediocre. We had the crispy spring rolls, shrimp Tom yum soup, and the Pad Thai (I swapped my eggplant for the pad Thai after the hair incident). Everything was too sweet and lacked depth of flavor. The best thing was probably the Thai iced tea. To summarize: meh; won't be coming back. read more

One of if not my favorite Thai restaurant in New Orleans. It used to be Basil Leaf but has now changed owners and also reduced the prices. It still has a beautiful Buddha mural and a cute seating area along the window, complete with decorative pillows. It's a perfect date night spot. The food comes out quick and is plentiful. I love all the flavors and have such a hard time not wanting to eat everything in sight. Ordered the penang curry with beef. Thai hot was more like mild for my tastes, but you can ask for more pepper to add to it. It had a bit too much peanut taste for me. My sister got the red curry which was more flavorful. I also tried the pad Thai, pad soon sen and something into the jungle. Everything was delicious! read more

Thai Mint - Huge portions and full of bright, crisp veggies! - Thai Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Came in at lunchtime and had the Pad Thai and Spicy Catfish Curry. Pad Thai was flavorful and more on the sweet side, the noodles were cooked just right and the sprouts were fresh and crunchy. I took a star off because although the food was enjoyable the portions are too small imo, but at that price (under 10$) maybe you get what you pay for since it also came with a spring roll and a small cup of hot and sour soup. As you can see in the picture, you can barely see the noodles under the bunch of sprouts. The Curry tasted like all others I've had before. The specials were medium and spicy according to the menu spice level but they weren't spicy at all. read more

Great location and delicious food. Tried the spicy basil fried rice with beef at lunch. Descent sized portion, also comes with a spring roll for under $10! Food had flavor which is good, could have been spicier since it was called "spicy basil fried rice" but I guess the baseline is purposely bland to cater to the regular uptown crowd. Next time will ask them to make the dish as they would for a thai person. Overall great food, good service, will return. read more

Thai Mint - Full bar as well! - Thai Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Been coming here for the past 7 years and always love their food! I think it's the best Thai food in Uptown!

This is more proof to me that New Orleans really lacks a high quality, authentic, Thai restaurant. Anyone who's lived in NYC, DC, Boston, or hell even Houston knows this. Our first visit here was for pick up only. The calamari app was simply plain 'ol fried calamari with a side of sweat sauce. The basil fried rice w/ pork was ok but had hardly any basil whatsoever (we added our own spicy green fishsauce to kick it up), and the volcano beef was not very impressive. The most disappointing thing may have been that we asked, and greatly emphasized, to make all of the dishes 'Thai hot' (their hottest level) and not to shy away from doing even more. They must have not told the chef at all or he just ignored it all together because there was no heat in any dish. Blah. The hunt for amazing, authentic, and HOT Thai food in Nola continues. read more

In town for a few hours and really wanted some Asian food for lunch, found this little place on Yelp and decided to give it try. *Finding Parking is not easy!! Only street parking is available, I circled around a few times before I found an open spot I'm comfortable to park at for an hour ish. What really drew me here was the picture I saw of the DESSERT: Mango and white sticky rice with sweet coconut sauce.My all time favorite!! It did not disappoint, very yummy but the rice can be a little more cooked! Ok, back to business. I ordered the red curry with pork that came with white rice, tons of veggies and a free appetizer of spring roll and sweet and sour soup. Everything was good but not outstanding! I loved all the bamboo shoots in the curry but other than that, I've had better curry. If you are in the area, it sure isn't a bad place to stop by for a bite! read more

I had never tried Thai food, but I was looking for something close to home (literally 3 blocks away) & a meal made with fresh ingredients. I selected the Pad Thai because of several other reviews & recommendations. I am so glad I did! It was different than anything I've ever tried before, but the blend of spices & flavors was just right. Will definitely be visiting again! read more

Thai Mint - Thai Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Good Thai food is hard to find in NOLA but I'm glad we finally got around to trying Thai Mint! We tried to phone in an order for pick-up and after our 10 or so calls went unanswered, we just drove over there in person to put in our order. I'd say that was the only downside. I had the Massamun curry but super spicy. I often ask to get it as spicy as possible and I think they thought I was exaggerating. The curry was great but could stand to be spicier. My partner had drunken noodles and dumplings and really enjoyed all of his food. Next time we go, I'll eat in though and save the hassle of going in and waiting for take-out. read more

This was my go-to Thai place in the city for a couple of years, but I had a string of bad take-out experiences that soured my opinion. I still maintain that they have really good quality Thai food, but the service is sub-par to say the least, especially when it comes to take-out. They sometimes just straight up won't answer the phone, so it's like rolling a dice every time I try. When I go in and just order in person to take it to go, the wait is often significantly longer (30+ minutes) than they estimate it to take. And on multiple occasions, they have brought the food out cold, and I didn't realize it until I got home (and I live less than five minutes away). I would only recommend going here if you are dining in. The take-out process is inconsistent and has resulted in more bad experiences than good. read more
