" The Purple Mint is a hidden gem! The environment is bright and cheery, and it’s a great spot for family gatherings. The menu provides a unique take on Asian cuisine, and I particularly enjoyed their avocado rolls. Just keep an eye out for parking as it can get tight depending on the time of day! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to The Purple Mint with my family on a casual Saturday. Everyone enjoyed their meals, but I was particularly fond of the Pho with tofu. It had a perfect balance of flavors — the broth was rich! We left feeling satisfied and happy. " (*Curated Review*)

" After a long day of exploring San Diego, we found The Purple Mint. The huge variety on the menu appealed to both vegans and non-vegans alike in our party. The fried avocado rolls were crispy and delightful, but the highlight was definitely the Kung Pao 'chicken'. However, we did have to wait a little longer for our drinks. Overall very good experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every vegan dish I tasted at The Purple Mint was bursting with flavor! I love how they manage to create authentic dishes that mimic traditional meat dishes so well. The ambiance exudes a calming presence, making it a perfect spot for a relaxed evening meal. Tom Yum soup was a standout! " (*Curated Review*)

" While searching for vegan places in San Diego, I stumbled upon The Purple Mint. The atmosphere is simply charming, and the jackfruit dishes were refreshing. The service was also attentive. I’ll rate it a solid 4. " (*Curated Review*)
