I'm the Scott that Jules review mentions. For ~$10 dinning for lunch or dinner I'm not going to fret about not being redecorated; the focus here is on the quality of the food.
For west & Southend'ers Mynt is a welcome addition to neighborhood. It is definitely a bootstrap operation taking over the previous Allure nightclub space. As such it's still dimly lit and an open space because it does become a nightclub bar later at night. But during the day or until 8pm I can certainly recommend this as a place to get your caribbean fix. The menu is limited but I would say focussed. My green curry chicken came out freshly made, the upside of new place in need of foot traffic nothing is made ahead. The rice is indeed succulent and a nice balance to a curry chicken that is spicy and flavorful without being dominating. The sweet potato fries are notable in that I think they're panko breaded & fried. They have a slight breading you'll see in the picture with a crispness that's distinct. Another thing that references their focus on their food than the building is they plate everything for the appeal of your food when it comes out. That's something you don't find at a meat n' three price point.
The manager Delroy came out to talk and as I complimented him on the plating he showed me pictures of what they do doing their dinner entrees which are very well plated. One dish was a caribbean shrimp dish that I can not remember well enough to spell. It was unfamiliar to me so he ran into the back and brought me a sample of 3 wings in an unusual red pepper, vinegar and cumin sauce. It's not part of their lunch menu so you'll have to try it when during their happy hour wing special or at night on an entree.
In summary, the food is great, the space is a little divey, there is a reggae music in the background but you won't hear overplayed Bob Marley favorites and it sure is easier to visit than Anthony's. Parking is on West Summit Ave side.
