    The place was easy to find, we were warmly greeted by the front. The menu is not large, which I find a plus. The portions were definitely good for sharing. For the antipasti we had ordered the prosciutto+figs and Suppli. The prosciutto was pretty plain, but it was delicious prosciutto pored well with perfectly ripe figs with a good mouthfeel of ricotta. The suppli, in my opinion was perfectly fried, but I think the flavor wasn’t anything unique or exciting, it’s a fried rice ball with cheese inside. Moving on towards the gnocchi ragú and the ribeye steak. The gnocchi was cooked well and the meat sauce was super delicious! I would put that meat sauce on everything! The steak was delicious, ordered it medium rare. Comes with a lemon wedge and arugula. Ended with tiramisu….GET IT! Oh man, it’s not too sweet, it’s creamy, it’s cocoa and espresso. I’m very happy to end with the tiramisu. Would definitely go back!

    A friend from Australia recommended Mint 54. He rated it highly and it did not disappoint. Mint has a wide variety of meal options. What I like is that the meals are not overdone or too busy. Simple and classic Italian flavours. Mint also has a good selection of wines to compliment each course. Friendly and attentive staff made for a very pleasant dining experience.

    We had a lovely evening at 54 Mint. Of course we had to try their award -winning margarita, which was delicious! We enjoyed the panzanella salad, my husband had a delightful steak, and I had the putinesca. We shared the lemon tart. The service was warm and attentive, and perfectly timed so we could make it to our show afterwards. We'd definitely go back!

    we had the brunch menu on Saturday which limited what we were interested in ordering. The salad was very good, the pasta nice. The restaurant has a nice ambiance with a sit down bar on one end. Recommend to get there no later than 2pm as the kitchen closes at 3pm.

    Wow! I am super impressed with 54 Mint. The food was fantastic -- we had three different pasta dishes, and each was spot on. Equally important, this was THE BEST restaurant service since pre-pandemic days...we actually felt waited on and cared for which is highly unusual these days. It was a wonderful spot to eat before going to the Theater, and the staff kept our time frame in mind, timing the dishes brought to our table flawlessly. We will definitely return!!

    The fish special had to be sent back as undercooked. It was graciously replaced, but still did not please my guest. The bucatini amatriciana was bland compared to more authentic versions of that Roman specialty. Moreover, we were seated outside, where vapors from some street repair were noticeable. The staff, however, was impeccable and gracious.

    Wonderful Italian dinner at 54 Mint. We sat outside and it was nice & quiet. Service was attentive and friendly, and the recommendations were right on the mark. The pastas were all cooked al dente and drinks were well made. They split the gnocci for the kids which made things easy. Solid Italian food. Will visit again!

Menu della tradizione dell’Italia centrale (prevalentemente romana), piatti abbondanti, cucinati bene con ingredienti di ottima qualità. Servizio professionale. Se si vuole mangiare italiano a San Francisco, questa è un’ottima soluzione

    Service was good and overall we enjoyed our brunch before a matinee show. However, I made the mistake of ordering the French toast. It was beyond soggy with little to no crisp. In retrospect I should have just sent it back as I was only able to eat the edges as the rest was too wet to eat. My fellow diners fared better and enjoyed their egg sandwiches and Benedict’s.

    The carbonara was not creamy and very oily. The wine, while not corked, was fizzy with far too much spritz to be a good Sangiovese. We were disappointed. The service was good.

    Per my husband: The kind server gave me great recommendations, extra attention and a great glass of wine. The food was so good (tomato salad was so fresh) and my Manhattan had an oversized ice cube debossed with their logo - really cool. Make a reservation ahead of time, and when in doubt, sit inside for better ambiance.

    First and foremost the pastas are outstanding... Perhaps they were unprepared for a theater crowd but... We arrived 5 minutes early for our reservation and it was over an hour, [during which our waiter was less than interested & we were getting worried about getting to the theater on time], before we got our food and then it arrived without one of our appetizers and one of our drinks...he did a perfunctory check-in after we started eating but it was getting so close to our show time we chose not to embarrass him... My wife, being a far more kinder person than I am, prefers to believe he didn't hear the orders for the appetizer and the drink because of the noise level...could be true, I guess, but I don't think so...

    We went to 54 Mint before going to the Golden Gate Theater to see Tina. The location was perfect for an evening at the theater. We had Gnocchi al RAGU and pasta with clams with fresh tomatoes. The portions were perfect. Nice wine list and bar too. We had sorbet for dessert, it was so refreshing. Service was very good. I'm glad they have another restaurant in Walnut Creek called Montesacro. I'm looking forward to dining there soon.
