Mint Leaf @sirkars brings a refreshing take on Indian cuisine in Middlesbrough, offering a menu that strikes a rare balance between traditional authenticity and contemporary flair. Nestled on Marton Road, the restaurant sets a cozy yet modern tone, and its menu is a direct reflection of this inviting ambiance.
The Mint Leaf @sirkars Menu covers a wide spectrum of Indian specialties, from comforting curries to tandoori-grilled mains and an impressive vegetarian selection. Signature dishes like the Chicken Tikka Masala and Lamb Bhuna stand out for their depth of flavor, rich spice blends, and consistent tenderness. The tandoori section, featuring sizzling Mixed Grills and Paneer Tikka, is ideal for sharing and delivers on both taste and presentation. Naan varieties-especially the garlic and keema-arrive warm, fluffy, and well-charred, a testament to the skill behind the clay oven.
Where the menu shines is in its well-thought-out portioning and value. Most mains are priced competitively, averaging £9-£12, while starters and sides remain accessible for under £6. This makes Mint Leaf @sirkars not only a top choice for dine-in meals but also a go-to for takeaway or delivery in the TS4 area.
The team behind the scenes deserves praise for maintaining quality across both meat and vegetarian dishes. Whether it’s the creamy Saag Paneer or spicy Chana Masala, the vegetarian offerings are as robust and satisfying as their meat-based counterparts. The menu also accommodates a range of spice levels, which makes it approachable for newcomers while still delivering bold flavors for seasoned curry lovers.
In a local market filled with generic takeaways, Mint Leaf @sirkars stands out for its consistency, menu diversity, and genuine hospitality-making it a strong contender for the best Indian dining experience in Middlesbrough.
