Mint Tapas and Sushi 3 (Holladay)

The waiter, ours was Sloan, was knowledgeable about gluten free foods and allergies. Not everything on the menu is gluten free (they have GF tempura batter!!!) but everything is peanut free which is dope. They do also have vegan options labeled on the menu although there's not a ton. He also let us know about the common favorites or most ordered items on the menu and I gotta say, he was spot on with his description of the Ube ice cream flavour. The grilled scallions were delicious and the stargazer sushi was also delicious. The Ube ice cream (pictured) was really really good. They also use real wasabi which is dope as hell. The ginger is amazing too but I'm a slut for ginger. A work colleague recommended the "Blossom of Peace" sake or as he put it "the plum sake." It was really good, I'm not a wine/sake connoisseur but my colleagues description of "sweet, tart and smooth" was very accurate, I enjoyed it as did my partner.

My husband and I have always enjoyed Mint Tapas and Sushi but tonight was our first time at the Holladay location. It’s really beautiful with a lot of natural lighting, which I love! Lindsay was our server and she was amazing! Not only was she super friendly and personable, but she was very knowledgable and understanding of my gluten allergy. She eased my typical anxiety of getting sick afterwards and helped customize a roll based on my allergy and preferences. More places/servers need to know their menu like Lindsay because it makes all the difference! Great drinks, amazing food, and awesome service - would definitely come back!
