Quite simply the best Indian restaurant in Cardiff. This place has no equal in our city and I can't recommend it highly enough.
If you want very high quality food and splendid service, then this is the place for you.

From the moment we entered the Mint and Mustard the service was outstanding with very attentive staff. We started our meal off with the soft shell crab and the panch ratan which translates into “5 gems” in English, the soft shell crab was amazing full of different flavours and tasted very fresh and light, presented to a Michelin star standard what a great start. My partner who is a vegetarian went for the panch ratan, which is a selection of five vegetarian starters including paneer tikka marinated in basil which was superb, and also including the subz la seekh which was a mixed vegetable kebab finished on a grill which she thought was second to none.
I then went on to have the classic buttered chicken with a side of basmati rice, the rice was fluffy and light and full of flavour , and the buttered chicken was creamy and totally to die for, my partner went for the pan seared sea bream on a bed of curry leaf mashed tapioca, she thought the fish was cooked to perfection alongside the flavour combination of the tapioca was lovely. We also had a side dish which was called thoran, which is a traditional seasonal vegetable stir fry, which went beautifully with both our main meals. So we would recommend ordering this alongside whatever you order on your visit to the Mint and Mustard.
For desert we had the cardamom crème Brule and chocomosa, both were exquisite. The chocomosa desert was a combination of chocolate ganache filled samsosa, on a bed of caramelized banana and a pistachio ice cream, which was an absolute delight and was one of the best deserts I have ever had in a restaurant second to none. The cardamom crème brule was a twist on your average crème brule and was very light and refreshing also just as impressive as the chocomosa.
All in all the evening was a very relaxing and enjoyable experience with a high quality of food and outstanding service, a lovely evening had by all.
