Review content:
Lets be clear, Im no rube when it comes to fine dining. And, I may not frequent all of the ""in"" spots in Raleigh but, Ive been around enough to know what is good & what is not. When considering The Mint, you must have an open mind: If it is your intention to be pretentious in an elegant setting devoid of any culinary imagination, then this place is for you. Personally, some of the bars down the street offer more diversity with their menu & they have Wii! I was impressed with everything about the restaurant but the food & the service. In a party of 14, it took over an hour to seat us & close to another for ""small food"" masquerading as entrees to arrive (our wait staff all but disppeared). The flatiron steak was nothing short of a poached roast without the personality. Plates of the filet mignon showed without any presentation what so ever. No greenery. No cave paintings done in a burgundy reduction...just a piece of meat in the middle of a oversized white plate - THAT WAS IT!! Was this reality TV? Where was Gordon Ramsay? We were then insulted by someone who showed up with a bottle of champagne to wash away any hard feelings - are you kidding me??! My martini cost more than that ! Again, all is forgiven if a waitress shows & apologizes for the delays; if the food were not bland renditions of so-called southern fare; if, The Mint lived up to its own hype. Some of the guest enjoyed the duck, the seared grouper & the lamb. And, I must admit the lobster appetizer was superb. The Mint is new, this is obvious. Perhaps once they hammer out a decent menu worthy of their million dollar price tag, they may garner some respect from those of us not willing to kiss them for perks. Until then, if you just need to spend insane amounts of money for food, visit other high end restaurants in the area, at least you'll be full when you leave - seriously, we had to stop at a hotdog vendor afterward.
Pros: Atmosphere, Possibilities
Cons: Pricey, Small Food, Poor Service, Single stall facilities
