Hitch Mint Leaf

You'll find this Indian restaurant holding down a prime spot on Bancroft, serving proper regional dishes that don't pander to timid taste buds. The kitchen clearly knows its way around a spice rack, delivering curries with the kind of depth and complexity that makes you wonder why you ever settled for bland high street alternatives. The evening-only operation means they're focused on doing dinner right rather than spreading themselves thin across lunch service. Whether you're after a weeknight curry fix or a Saturday night feast, expect dishes that actually taste like they're supposed to – fragrant, punchy, and unapologetically authentic. It's the kind of place that makes Hitchin's dining scene feel properly grown-up.
