Everything we ate was great! The drinks were outstanding. The only thing I would change is I wish the had salads

Run by a fantastic Italian crew, the food and ambiance are wonderful.

Went for brunch. The food was great, something for everyone at the table. I especially recommend the Steak & Eggs: this dish, unlike at other places, was with ribeye steak. Our server was FANTASTIC, could not have been more attentive nor fun. Atmosphere was great sitting outside with live DJ.

La comida estuvo deliciosa. El servicio fue excelente.

Nice to sit outside, although it did get cold and the heaters were minimally helpful (we were either too far or the one we were near was too weak). Food was fine - the cacio e pepe pasta was very good - but not amazing.

The best croquettes we've had. Without traveling to Italy - the best.
Gnocchi was light with great ragu.

Had to edit (add) to this outside reservation twice as our celebration grew in size. The restaurant was so amazing and accommodating. THE FOOD! We spent most of our time praising the preparations of our meals. It was amazing evening made even more amazing by the staff. CLEARLY, they care. And they now have a set of new regulars for as long as they're around. Shoutouts to the waitstaff and chef(s) for a fantastic culinary experience.

We have eaten at 54 Mint several times. This was by far the worst experience. We ordered several appetizers which were pretty good. We ordered four pastas none of which came out hot. The worst was the carbonara which was room temperature at best.
I think they are suffering from a shortage in the kitchen.
Our plan is to wait several months before a return visit.

The service was really lacking on this trip; they brought me a completely different dish from what I ordered because the pasta type I had ordered wasn’t available in a vegetarian sauce. They didn’t come back and tell us that one of the items we had ordered wasn’t available and were weirdly insistent on us eating the dish the way they wanted us to. Eg I asked for parmesan for my pasta and they insisted I try my pasta without it even though they have it and offer it for other pasta. It was really unpleasant.

Excellent food. Okay service. Music was too loud.

Excellent Italian cuisine. Best risotto I have ever eaten. Outdoor patio needed new heat lamps as some of them blew a ton of smoke, and there is no other lighting that gives it a nice ambiance (string lights were not turned on and there is no table lighting or other decoration at all). These are minor things that are easy to fix however! The restaurant is worth it for the authentic, expertly prepared Italian food. There were problems with our order, but our server apologized profusely for the mix-ups (delivering our order to the wrong table) and corrected them immediately. That is all you can ask for - someone who admits mistakes and makes things right. Highly recommend this wonderful restaurant! Great food, very friendly staff.

We had a great experience at 54 Mint on our last night in San Francisco. The service was excellent and attentive - our server was clearly passionate about food and wine and helped us select from the menu. The food was delicious, as were the drinks. Get the tiramisu for dessert!

I loved the ambience and the mood of the restaurant. The food however, was not that great. We got the suppli and the texture of the rice was very hard. It came with three pieces and two of them was undercook, the rice was still very hard.

We got the tonnarelli and it was salty. Maybe that is how it supposed to taste?

For our secondi, we got coda alla vaccinara and it was also okay.

Overall disappointed with the food experience. Maybe we just came at a bad night but we were hoping for better food since it has such a good reputation.

Truly Italian restaurant in the bay area, it's always a guarantee

Love this place! Excellent Italian food with some surprises on the menu. Perfect location after shopping at Westfield Mall, or before the theater! Always have an excellent dinner here!

We ordered 6 different lunch menu options between the six of us and all of it was excellent!

Absolutely delicious, authentic Italian cuisine.

Loved 54Mint .. it was a great experience, meal, service & environment. the service was exceptional, the wait staff were friendly and fun. The food was delicious and so tasty.

The hostess and waiter were extremely warm and friendly. We sat downstairs which had a more intimate vibe to it. I had the elderflower gimlet which was delightful and had a great flavor that wasn’t overpowering. For dinner, I got the cacio e Pepe and my husband got the carbonara. My husband summed our meals perfectly when he said it was everything we wanted and more. We topped off dinner with the tiramisu, which was heavenly. If we ever find ourselves in SF again, we will definitely be coming back here.

Excellent dinner - very authentic. Great customer service. Will for sure go again. The gnocchi and asparagus salad were both amazing.

Our family of four enjoyed an early dinner here. Because it was early, there were only a couple of tables occupied. Antonio took good care of us, suggesting some not-to-miss dishes. Everything was tasty. The prices were slightly higher than we expected but overall a solid choice and we would consider visiting again!

The entire staff is very friendly and the food was excellent. The cocktails were also very special. Highly recommend.

Very very good. Every dish was good.

Tried the following:

Appetizers:
Bruschetta
Asparagus crudo
Cauli-flan

Pasta:
Carbonara
Bucatini

Entrees:
Halibut
Chicken
Oxtail

Ordered two wines. They even brought out the decanter for us by request, which was nice. Good service. Cozy ambience in the basement. Would return.

Service was great and food was delicious. I loved the location!

Wonderful restaurant. Great ambiance. Terrific food. Fun wine list. Highly recommended.

The food is pretty good, the service is great and the ambience is fantastic.

Great food... true Italian, but with a modern creative twist. Everything we ordered was outstanding; octopus app, asparagus pea salad, see urchin pasta, and halibut in tomato sauce. Everything was 10 out of 10. And the cappuccino and tiramisu were top notch. Service was ok, but the hostess was a bit lost... took her way too long to get us to the table that was open for 20 minutes. Maybe she was knew... but a heat place and I’d certainly recommend it and go again when I’m in town. Give it a try. Enjoy.

Awesome experience

Very nice evening, lovely & relaxing. First time out since Feb. 2020 with friends visiting from SOCAL. Great food & no rushing

Had a fantastic dinner there, delicious food, great wine and excellent service. My date was thrilled.

Food was great, better than expected. We shared a really delicious steak and an asparagus risotto. Service was very attentive and the inside decor was pretty. If you’re driving there, consider arriving a bit earlier. Parking near is limited and can fill up quickly, but there’s a garage near by.

Everything was excellent. Really happy with our choice of restaurants tonight. I’m impressed and will return to 54 Mint.

Great food. Nice owner. Don't sit outside. Unfortunately, too many homeless issues surrounding the Mint building take away from a great experience. NOT the owners' fault, of course. Eat inside and enjoy the amazing Italian cuisine.

After taking our order and asking if we wanted bread we were basically abandoned by the waiter. Never got the bread and never checked on us. Finally asked the bus boy for the check.

I had the special and my wife had the gnocchi. They were both excellent and the bottle of wine suggested to my wife and I was fantastic and a good price.

Simple, full flavored, simply well cooked meals; everything was right. Thank you

Terrible service.

Tania was great —- greeted us right away, took our drink/food order effortlessly as well. We were particularly impressed that she was from Rome —- the whole experience made us feel like we had a wonderful lunch in Italy

We arrived a half hour before close but they treated us great. The gnocchi was the best we’ve ever had!

The food was amazing. Both entrees and dessert. The cocktails were also amazing. But. It took forever to get service, they were clearly understaffed. Also, open table allowed me to specify that I wanted an indoor table, but when I got there we were seated outside next to a broken heat lamp and it was freezing. I also was hoping for a little bday love for my stepdaughter. I specify on open table that it’s a special event and who in my party we were celebrating and the restaurant didn’t acknowledge it at all.

The kitchen staff should be applauded for their work. The server was also so professional but clearly stretched too thin. Also the music was up so loud that we literally couldn’t carry on a conversation.
