I just love this place. I cannot think of another restaurant that has any quality anything like this. I am vegetarian my husband is not. So we speak from both worlds. Everything is exceptional. I must mention Chai their sister cafe next door (apparently moving so they can expand soon) want a wonderful place for a small meal or snack.... More

Upon entering the restaurant you will see its not your normal curry house very bistro feel about the place. We went on monday night for a nice relaxed evening but was surprised how quickly the restaurant filled up by the time we left it was full so book early. We ordered the £36 each taster menu which I must say... More

Unbelievable anti-climax after rave reviews. Walk-ins showed to better tables despite booking two weeks previously. Beer at £8.50 a bottle. Popadoms out of a packet. Seekh Kebab starter hot but bland. Koh-E-Roganjosh main course uneventful. Pershwari nan uninspiring. Such a let down. Oh well back to my local which offers tastier dishes at half the price. Distinctly average and not... More

Another outstanding meal at this wonderful restaurant. The starters were tasty elegantly presented and full of flavour, and so imaginitive. The main courses quite outstanding. The sauces were were light but packed full of intense and complex flavours. I had the paneer cooked with a creamy tomato sauce which was both subtle and at the same time had bags of... More

We have been visiting Mint & Mustard a couple of times a year since we returned to live in Cardiff from the USA, having read a local newspaper review back in 2009. We have just returned again after a long absence and, having learnt that there had been a change of chefs since our last visit, were interested to see... More

I have eaten here on three occasions now and the food and standards have been consistent throughout. You pay a little more, but it's well worth it. The staff are friendly and helpful. This would be my Indian restaurant of choice in Cardiff at the moment. The scallops for starters are really good, as is the three chicken in three... More

We stumbled across this restaurant while running and decided to go back one evening, we went on a Friday night and it was busy with a great atmosphere when we arrived and I loved the decor. We had starters and mains and all of the food was absolutely superb, we couldn't fault a thing, wonderful Indian food with difference! Good... More

Have always found the food very authentic,delicious. Having been here atleast 10-12 times in the past year would recommend a few favourites like Nandu soft shell crab, kebab, butter chicken and Rohan josh. The biryani ( lamb & chicken) is to die for, so flavoursome!!! A bit on the expensive side but never disappointing.
