If you live in Richmond, you should try the new restaurant, Mint. I went there with my girlfriends last week for our monthly dinner club and we were all really pleased with everything. Of course, how bad can a meal be when it starts off with fried pickles?? They were delicious!! However, here’s a warning, if you don’t like dill pickles, don’t order them! We may or may not have misled a friend to taste them and she immediately made a sour face and looked for somewhere to discard of the fried pickle. But if you like dill pickles (and yes you do Terry), then you’ll LOVE this appetizer!
This restaurant is located in the space that was formally Davis & Main. They’ve lightened up the place and it really looks nice now, not as dark and dreary as it was before. We also had great service, Mary, was a very attentive server. That’s for you, Terry.
The photo above is my meal. Pan roasted flounder with a roasted red pepper sauce. You think that's sounds yummy, just wait, there's more. It was served with cheese grits and collards. So delicious! Well, Terry said the collards were delicious and I'll just have to take her word for that one. Oh, and don't forget the warm corn bread they brought to the table a couple of times. Sweet and delicious!
Give this place a try. We also sampled the bacon wrapped dates. I would have never ordered these, but they are known for them and we were all really pleased. Who knew I liked dates?? Shhhh....don't tell my parents. The other girls had hamburgers, quiche and steak and everyone was satisfied. We left happy!
Put Mint on your list of places to try in Richmond!
