About this business

Editorial fromMint has been a trendsetter in more ways than one. First, its location in a close-in yet highly industrialized neighborhood seemed like a bold choice a decade ago. Now, it's on the edge of the hippest shopping district in town. Secondly,…

First visit back to Mint in four years and what a disappointment! The avocado daiquiri is not what it used to be. The food is heavy, greasy with not a lot of flavor. My green beans were served on a black square plate that looked like it came from 1990 with at least five white chips all over it. Gordon Ramsay would have lost his mind if his food was served to him on a chipped plate. The restaurant need a good cleaning, you can see the dust in the light fixtures throughout the restaurant.. In general it was a big let down from... read more

great! – The lamb burgers were all that and proved up to the many positive things I've heard the last two years. barkeep comped us a couple (kinda bizarre) cocktails on a slow night and was attentive without being pushy. Nice date place or if you just want a low key evening and good grub.

Good Service, Bad Food, We both got sick! – Went for happy hour in bar. I had fish and chips. Fish a bit too fishy after first bite. Probably a few days old. Potato and Sweet Potato fries were limp and greasy. Result of oil not hot enough. My "chips" were no longer than 1-1/2 inches and mostly just the ends of sliced potatoes. Looked like the bottom of the bag! Two hours later we were both sick. Gastrointestinal distress if catch my meaning. Also, $3.50 is no great deal for a 10oz. draft beer. Very disappointed. Won't return... read more

Mixed Reviews – Ok, here is my first review when I had a good experience: I really liked this place. The happy hour apps are nice and the drinks are tasty. The bartender guy (Jason maybe?) is really nice and I really enjoyed everything. I thought the sweet potato fries were perfectly crispy. They were nice and hot and served with a perfect dipping sauce. The "spicy" caesar is really good too. I would definitely go back to this place. It's not like many places in Portland where the servers ignore you and expect 20%. This plac... read more

horrible service – 820: Good happy hour prices, food, drinks and atmosphere, but I will avoid this place like the plague. Our server apparently hated us from the time we walked in. No idea why! We practically had to beg for drinks. We stayed past happy hour and spent well over $100 because we were enjoying each others company, but in this economy I hope that their management realizes that this is not acceptable. Bummer! I thought I was going to love it there!

Friendly service, amazing drinks, awesome food – Mint has some of the tastiest "foo-foo" drinks I've found. Definitely a spot for the occasional treat and not a once a week kind of place, but well worth the cost. Plus, you have to love a place that has a once a week (Wed) happy hour from 4pm until close! All the food we tried as tasty, especially the chocolate croissant pudding with their freshly made mint ice cream on top. If you're having a bad day grab a couple girlfriends and go have a couple drinks and the pudding and y... read more

great drinks – Went on a Friday for Happy Hour. We were surprised to find that the drinks and happy hour appetizers were reasonably priced. The sweet potato fries were excellent and I suggest The Bella for a great drink experience. Atmosphere was a little "trendy" but not pretentious. Definitely would like to return to try more drinks and order dinner.

Loved it! – I'd heard about Mint because my brother-in-law bought Lucy's, Mint's Mixologist, book "Hip Sips" and we were loving all the great recipes. You can get a lot of the same drinks at Mint as well as new and exciting ones. I have now been only once - going again tonight - and the food was great and the drinks were even better! I met my mom there just in time to catch the tail end of happy hour and stayed for dinner and dessert. If you can make it during Happy Hour, it's a really great deal. They have both drinks and f... read more

Food Just OK. Service was bad. – Food was OK - Not Great. Service was BAD. So, I do like I always do, and you should too. If service is bad, don't leave a tip. They did not earn a tip. How many times do you think it would take until the server figured it out. Bad Service = No tip. Things would change fast.
