"Excellent pick"   My Rating
8 drwiz	Posted on: Friday, November 06, 2009
	Review: Located in a shopping "strip mall" the restaurant looks very unassuming. However the menu was varied with multiple good choices. The service was above average and the food was excellent. The citrus ribs were outstanding, they did a tapioca concoction for desert that was first rate, and it was all fairly priced. A bit of a pain to get to, but well worth the effort.   Pros: selection * quality of food * fair prices Cons: dreary setting * *

"Vegetables bland and undercooked"   My Rating
1 sanctuary5 20	Posted on: Thursday, July 23, 2009
	Review: It is great to have another all-vegan option available in Arizona. The cafe atmosphere was clean and bright (and hot with the July sun coming in all the windows). The owner doubled as the server and was very friendly. Being somewhat skeptical of the ingredients in mock meat products, even those in dishes or restaurants that are marketed as vegan, I opted for the sesame tofu. The tofu was very yummy (of course, most things that are fried and salty are, right?), but the vegetables that came along with it were undercooked - even for a stir fry (almost raw) - and bland (even though the dish was supposed to be "spicy"). The accompanying brown rice was fluffy and nutty. Strange not to have soy sauce or other condiments available on the table. My friend's entree also was incredibly bland. Disappointingly, we were excited to order the plantains from the dessert menu, but they said they did not have them and never had (which made me wonder why they left them on the menu). Vegan -- awesome. Food -- good. The best vegan Asian I've ever had? Nope. Price -- a little high for what you get quality and quantity. However, I would go back again if I am in north Scottsdale and it's convenient, though. Good to have options where you can eat everything on the menu.   Pros: * * Cons: * *

"Amazing place!"   My Rating
1 Carol64	Posted on: Monday, June 08, 2009
	Review: Went to Fresh Mint during a business trip to Arizona and was thrilled to find Fresh Mint! One of my friends suggested it and the three of us that went were absolutely thrilled. Everything about this place rocks. The food is incredible. My fiance had the pepper steak and it was so delicious. I had the Kung Pao Chicken, and my friend had the ribs and they were all hits. Everything on the menu is fresh, delicious, and truly amazing, even if you are not vegan. The desserts are to die for so save room, which will be hard since the entire menu is wonderful and if you're like me, you'll want everything. Our service was impressive, as was the simple, yet tasteful atmosphere. We even learned something since we were asked a trivia question by our waiter, who is also one of the owners. Once thing is for sure, the next time I'm in the area, I will go back and try some of the other things on the menu I wanted. If you are in the Phoenix, Tempe, Scottsdale area, do yourself a HUGE favor and go to Fresh Mint. You'll love it!   Pros: Food * Service * Food! Cons: * *
