Well! I have found my new Thai cuisine fav in New Orleans. Firstly, the ambiance is very relaxed and can be casual or you can dress up if you want for dinner. The place will accommodate both. Now for the food, I ordered the egg rolls and the Tom Ka (small) for starters. Stop! I was already full with just these two items. But wait..... there's more..... I ordered the Pineapple Fried rice..... with shrimp. Oh it was so so good. Remember to support the local eateries, it's a love fest is what they serve..

I visited here for the first time yesterday evening. It wasn't easy finding street parking especially in the dark but I did luck up and find a spot close by. I love Thai food and I enjoyed this place. The staff were friendly and helpful. The vibe was very causal. It wasn't a large place. I ordered the Tom yum shrimp soup and it was delicious. The chicken pad see u was also very tasty. I ordered the mango with sticky rice and that was pretty good. I look forward to returning here soon.

I went to Thai Mint for lunch with two of mentees. There was only one other table occupied, but the staff was cranking out to go orders, so I took that as a sign of quality food. Being that were were one of two tables, the service was fast and attentive. Our server offered to accommodate me when I said to make my curry "as spicy as they could." He checked in and offered to have it remade it if wasn't to my liking. I enjoyed it, but there could have been just a bit more chicken.My mentees enjoyed their fried rice even though the shrimp was imported. We ordered the lunch specials which came with soup and a spring roll. The price point was great for the amount of food we received. I paid under 50.00 for the three us. My mentees ordered sprite and it came in 20 oz bottles. They were glad to be able to take the drinks home, but I was concerned about plastic waste. My main issue was that it smelled a bit stale in the building.

Basil eggplant is fantastic and the service is really nice. The vibe is lowkey and chill. My favorite Thai place in NOLA.

Our friends from New Orleans took us to this place on the last night of our visit. The entire week we had been eating Cajun food so we wanted to try different cuisine. I am glad we tried this place. We absolutely crushed it. For 5 of us, we initially thought we ordered a lot. But all these delicious food did not last. For apps, we ordered steamed dumplings and hot and sour soup. Absolutely delicious! For entrees we ordered a ton - cashew shrimp, massamam curry, spicy pork fried rice, chicken fried rice and chicken noodles. Except for the noodles, everything was very good. If I had to pick one, I would absolutely order the massamam curry again. Spicy pork fried could have been spicier. Great service and ambiance as well. Highly recommend it.

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!

Such a neighborhood gem. Fresh delicious Thai food with reasonable prices! I mean, their lunch specials are 10-13 dollars and come with cup rich hot soup and egg roll. Deal. So many options and they let you make adjustments- I like my PadKeeMao no bell pepper, extra broccoli, and they make it perfectly every time. I also really like their wonton soup- clear flavorful broth with bok Choi and plump shrimp dumplings. In my experience, it's the perfect food for recovering from illness- be it infectious or hangover:) The service is attentive and unfailingly kind. We have come for dinner too and the portions are huge! I always have leftovers. When it's crowded it can get kinda loud, but usually I find it cozy and welcoming. Thanks Thai mint for all the tasty food:)
