Honestly I love my Indian and have tried it across the country and this was absolutely delicious. Maybe the service is isn’t perfect but it’s more than made up for by beautiful food. I was a little hesitant with the mixed reviews but was glad I gave it a go! Recommend

Classic Indian with a waterfront view - Mint-O-Mustard is a must try!

Set amongst Docklands’ bustling Newquay Promenade, Mint-O-Mustard is a waterfront Indian restaurant serving up authentic, mouth-watering dishes. You’ll find flocks of locals, tourists, corporates and shoppers popping in for a quick bite and coffee, or sitting down for a three-course banquet. 

Elegant copper interiors create a relaxed yet sophisticated ambience matching their exceptional wine and craft beer selection, as well as their extensive cocktail list. Aperol spritz anyone? The abundant space and outdoor seating on the water caters for all occasions and large groups, from family dinners to Christmas parties. 

The seasonal menu offers authentic Indian food using fresh local produce prepared daily on-site. The sweeping variety of small and large sharing plates accommodates any appetite or craving, and there are plenty of vegetarian dishes too! We loved the spicy tandoori Mushrooms, as well as Mint’s signature dish – the Paneer Lollipops. We recommend choosing a few curries and vegetable dishes to share, contrasting the fiery spice with fresh flavours. The Goan Fish Curry and Malai Kofta are great choices. Add a side of coconut rice and garlic naan, and you’re set for a perfect Indian feast!

Sweet tooths will delight in the dessert menu, which includes a variety of traditional and contemporary dishes. The indulgent Nutella Naan served with vanilla ice-cream and strawberries is the most popular choice and for good reason – it’s delectable!

Mint o Mustard is located along the new quay in beautiful Docklands. It has a great view and an outdoor area. 

We were lucky enough to be invited to try their food. For entree, we had the paneer lollipops, the sauce was really nice. For main, we had the butter chicken, prawn malabar, lamb saag, garlic naan and lemon rice. The curries were good, especially the lamb, if you like a bit of spiciness. The naan was delicious, went really well with the curry. The lemon rice added a refreshing touch to our meal, which was great.

Last night we went over to the far side of Docklands to try out the menu at Mint-o-Mustard. This venue is located in one for the more frequented parts of the Dockland Promenade located close to other favourites. The venue itself has seating for over 180ish guests inside and plenty of additional spots on the outside alfresco area but both a window seat inside or outside with get you startling views over the marina.

We started with a round of drinks and I set myself up for success with a super thick and tasty mango lassi. Other chose a pina colada from the ample cocktail list and kingfisher beer because when in Rome...

For our Indian food feast we started with vegetable samosas, as good a place to start as any imo. These homemade spicy delights where steaming hot with a light soft mash and herbs and super crunchy shell. I love a good samosa and these tick all the boxes, a great way to start of the night.

The Mint prawn tandoori we’re marinated with yoghurt mint, and spices cooked in clay oven then tossed in coconut.

Chicken 65, these boneless chicken pieces where on the sweeter side, with great level of heat and an almost caramelised coating. I haven’t eaten chicken like this before but given the medium chilli kick I hope it won’t be the last.

For mains and without any discussion we all happily ordered the butter chicken which was absolutely western styled and absolutely what I wanted with sweetness and delicious tender chicken and plenty of cream.

The Aloo Gobi described as Potato & cauliflower was a brilliant dish, vibrant & delicious, this was one of my favorites, loads of flavour a lovely chilli hit.

Another vegetarian dish was Malai kofta which was Fried cottage cheese and mashed potato dumplings stuffed with nuts and cooked in a mild cashew sauce. There were only three dumplings in this dish and I would have liked to see more but that epic sauce was used by all to dunk naan and coat rice.

Our last main was the Beef madras which was cooked with medium spices including roasted mustard seeds, curry leaf and coconut cream. The great gravy’s with this curry was again perfect for dipping in the garlic & cheesy garlic naans we ordered.

We were done and yet next minute out comes a Nutella naan for sharing. I kid you not one of the best Nutella desserts I’ve had. They have an M&M one as well. Yay!!

We all had a super time at Mint-o-mustard. Thanks to the team for inviting us in.

Authentic Indian food. Mint-o-Mustard serves actual spicy Indian food! They also use whole spices in their curries as well, showing that they are using authentic spices. There are no mild versions of their dishes available. Medium is the least spicy level you can get at Mint-o-Mustard. The vindaloo is amazing! Only criticism is that they use broccoli in their food. Broccoli isn’t normally used in Indian cooking.... plus it’s my least favourite vegetable! Luckily I could give the broccoli to one of my friends!

Also their garlic naan is the second best naan I’ve tried in Melbourne! Finally another place that serves good garlic naan!

Went there in a Sunday night. The place is huge but was a bit quite that day. As when you visit a place in Docklands you expect some decent crowd. As it was a birthday party, so at first we were a bit upset. We ordered some starters and after getting the food the presentation bought smile to our faces. The tandoori chicken was a served on a sizzler plate and looked stunning. They have a vast menu with a lot of vegetarian options. Everything was perfectly cooked. Specially the fish. The Mains were not as good as starters. Only thing,chicken shahi korma was the show stopper. The place has a good ambience and not too heavy on pocket as well.

Why not spice up your palate with some delicious Indian cuisine from Mint-O-Mustard.  Conveniently located in the Newquay promenade, Mint-O-Mustard serves up a delicious line up of traditional Indian dishes made with fresh local produce, that are full of flavour and served with a smile. Mint-O-Mustard is a very spacious family friendly bar and restaurant, where you can go and enjoy great Indian soul food that caters to any palate, mild, medium or hot.  It is loved by locals and tourists alike, which to us speaks volumes.

Something I recently learned is that a lot of Indian restaurants are named after spices, curry or tandoor. Following suit, Mint-O-Mustard is named after two humble yet intensely flavoursome ingredients that are used in many Indian dishes: mint and mustard. Open for less than a year, the first restaurant owned by this husband-and-wife team offers Melbourne traditionally authentic Indian recipes, slightly modified to suit the Australian palate.

I recently held a foodie event here, and boy was the service impeccable! A special thank you to Shweta and team for such a lovely evening. 

Mint-O-Mustard is a recent addition to Docklands and brings a modern twist to Indian Cuisine. I loved that we were able to experience such a vast range of Indian food, some that we’d had before (but executed really well) and some that we’d never even heard of. I never knew a curry menu could be so extensive! It was refreshing to skip the typical ‘Butter Chicken’ which is very over-ordered. And what was even more amazing was that each dish was so different yet delicious in its own way! 

My favourite of the night would have to be the M&Ms Naan Bread which was such an intelligent, sweet take on the typical Naan Bread you usually get at Indian restaurants. 

Definitely worth a visit, and a great addition to the Docklands area!

Located in the deep Dockland, Mint-O-Mustard is a delightfully cosy addition.  I tried a range of entree's, but the highlight was definitely the curries.  These curries were really well made and not too spicy (unless you asked for a hit of spice it was all manageable.)  The curries we sampled was the butter chicken which was pretty good, a spinach curry which I loved, but my favorite was the Beef Madra Curry that was recommended to us by the waitress.  Melted in your mouth and so so tasty.  You also can't go past quality Indian Naan.  I was very excited to see that there was pizza naan on the menu so naturally had to try it.  Flavours of a pizza didn't quote go with Indian food, but that was my poor choosing.  Definitely stick with the garlic and cheesy naan and you will leave happy as larry!

We were invited to Mint O Mustard to try a range of Indian food and not just the traditional butter chicken!

We started off the evening with the mango lassi. For entree we enjoyed the
Tandoori Mushrooms, the Shapi Paneer tikka and tandoori chicken which was full of flavour but the suprise for me was the seekh kebab which had a great kick of hot chilli as well.

For mains we ordered the chicken jalfrezi which was great as I can't take too much heat as well as the lamb rogan josh and prawn tikka masala.

As accompaniments, we ordered the saffron rice and coconut rice the flavours were very subtle.

But the highlight for me were the Kashmiri naan and cheese & garlic naan and we could not go past the m&m naan too. These came fresh and piping hot to the table and were delicious.

The night was finished off with the very refreshing mango ice cream.

Our meal here was absolutely amazing. We had a mushroom ball item (can't remember the exact name) as a starter that was sooo delicious! Both our curries were fantastic as well. Only issues were the service was a bit slow and the atmosphere is lacking. BUT on a sunny day, the docklands provide a natural beautiful atmosphere anyway. Great spot for a quiet delicious meal!

A large indian restaurant located along the new quay .managed by a young couple who welcome you with a smile and good hospitality.we were staying in the area and ended up having two meals here .the food is freshly cooked and takes a while to come,but worth the wait.the chicken 65 was delicious and the butter naans served rolled up in a nice way.the various dishes we ordered had distinctive flavours,unlike a lot of indian restaurants which use the same masalas/curries for different dishes

A cool, quaint but large Indian restaurant located in the heart of Docklands! We walked past it a number of times and decided to check it out last night. Run by a lovely couple we were welcomed in with true Indian hospitality. Being spacious we were able to get a nice corner seat with a view of the harbour.

We started with a couple of lovely lassis and a Chicken 65 entree. My wife is a pescatarian and she couldn't resist trying the chicken as it looked completely divine and heavenly! I ate the entire plate and it was deeelicious. I could have actually had 65 pieces of Chicken 65 if allowed...For mains we ordered the fish and chicken mains along with some garlic and pizza naan. Pizza naan?? It was unique but definitely a hit and not a miss. 

Overall I would highly recommend this restaurant for a pleasant Indian meal with a good view and reasonable customer service. 

Word of caution: if you do use the Liven app, make sure you are a member in order to avail the discount. We weren't members unfortunately (didn't know this at the time) and were left short-handed at the counter....disappointed with that aspect of the customer service as the neighbouring Indian restaurant has the 'art of customer service' mastered!

So happy to have discovered the delicious food at this new Docklands restaurant, via a voucher offer. We enjoyed our vegetable samosas but the mains were truly outstanding . Both our lamb saag and chicken tikka masala were delicious and accompanied with yummy naan; the garlic naan delectable. The gulam jamun dessert was good rounding out a very satisfying meal. We will be back, now that we've found you :)

PS: we did return, had other dishes which were equally delicious but if you haven't tried it before, we highly recommend Kheer for dessert. It's the most delicious Indian style rice pudding ever.

Mint-O-Mustard does India proud!

With unbeatable spectacular city, waterfront views and delicious food, Mint-O-Mustard ticks all the boxes. Me and my husband visit this place quite often and it has never let us down.  As a vegetarian, I've never had such a unique variety of Indian entrees  in Melbourne and PANEER LOLLIPOP hits the spot for me. For my husband it was the MINT PRAWN TANDOORI!

The mains are just as delicious but if there is one thing I would recommend for anyone who visits this food heaven is their PIZZA NAAN. Being a food enthusiast I love Italian food just as much as Indian and when you bring these two together what you experience is joy and you want it more of, EVERY SINGLE TIME . This Indian bread is to die for!

We love this place, their service and the ambience. And on days when we are not in a mood for a full meal, we just swing by and sit at the bar munching on the delish entrees.

Restaurant looks clean and big for big gatherings or small. I have been there with my 3 month old baby and few friends. So much space for pram to move around and food is delicious. Little Gem in Docklands, After visiting twice to this place for a good meal and wine, we are going to have couple of birthday parties as well. It has outdoor heated place and in summer or winter glass door in the front can be opened for large gatherings up-to 200 or more.

Do yourself a favour. If you like Indian food, make sure to sample a range of delicious curries from this friendly restaurant. We love it so much we go often enough to be considered regulars. The Chicken 65 is spectacular, as is butter chicken and lamb madrass (our faves). Highly recommended.
