"This is the first and possibly the last visit to mint leaf. We have read and heard of great reviews about this place and I for one was disappointed. Giving the benefit of doubt first, it was New Year’s Eve so I totally understand the...demand of service to customers however, and it is a big however. I called to book a table a few days before and they made it sound like it was full. They game me options to book in so I took the later one. I left my name so we knew it was a concrete booking. On arrival, no name was asked by the doorman, he just shoved us on the waiting sofa starring at people eating food which felt uncomfortable anyway. We then got taken to our table (and there was plenty of room too) shortly followed by another couple who took the next table. We had a look at the menus when, a regular couple came in and sat tables down, only to get served instantly. Regardless of importance and how much you spend in the vicinity, we should have been first. So, we ordered popadoms to share with pickle tray and they wasn’t even warm. They tasted like rubber and they had been stood for some time. The pickle tray was awful, like it had been slopped together. We had to be asked to get a drink which was awkward. Onto the starters, the tandoori chicken actually was really nice, came on a small plate with small tomato and some discoloured lettuce. It wasn’t served on a skewer either. My partners allo chop was cold. It took minutes for the mains to arrive and we hadn’t even had our starters taken away either so the table was a mess. The waiter was arrogant and slammed the plates onto the table shouting “enjoy your meals happy new year” in the most sarcastic voice too. Overall, a very disappointing evening when we was looking forward to it too. We never got looked after once and asked if we need anymore drinks etc. i must say though, we have eaten at Ayeshas on Dronfield bottom and they actually blow mint leaf away. So, we won’t come back I’m afraid. Ohh, give the toilets a clean they were awful. for me guys."
