Restaurant sans intérêt. Carte courte et chère. Les pâtes sont bonnes, heureusement mais hélas les portions sont petites. Finalement une qualité de service très inférieure à celle qu’on peut espérer! Les vins sont très chers mais ce n’est pas une exception aux US

Staff was great and accommodating, however, this was a business meal. When interrupting a conversation, they should be courteous and say “excuse me/pardon me”. I understand they have a job to do, but this happened 3 times.

The ambience and dining place inside the restaurant lower floor is horrible. It is like a poor basement very old looking. Very disappointed, particularly that I booked this place in advance and asked for a nice table inside. Instead they gave us a table downstairs which looks like an old garage. The air conditioner above us was leaking and pouring drops on our head! The food is also over priced. With this price there are much better restaurants in SF.

I was so pleased to discover this little gem in San Francisco, near both the Golden Gate and Orpheum Theaters! Absolutely loved the ambiance downstairs; I felt like I was dining in a rustic-yet-elegant, classic old ristorante in Rome. My caprese salad (on special that night) was delicious (who doesn't love heirloom tomatoes, fresh mozzarella and pesto??) and both of our homemade pasta dishes were out of this world. And don't even get me started on the basket of bread. I fell very hard off my low-carb diet that night, I assure you. Cannot wait to dine here again another evening before a show!

54 Mint was a lovely find. The food was imaginative, nicely presented & delicious. Loved the porchetta salad & fish of the day & the sorbet for dessert. The only miss for us was the ricotta tart which was dense, cold & the crust was dense & moist rather than flaky. Look forward to coming back. 😊

Restaurant needs public wireless access. Food delicious. Menu selection guidance could have been more balanced. We asked about sharing and were told that portions were small. So we ordered a salad and two entrees. Both pasta entrees could have been easily sharable. Ordered three matching glasses of wine -- tried to get waiter's attention to just order a bottle, but by the time we got to him the glasses were already ordered and he couldn't do the more cost-effective bottle. Waiter was nice, charming, but he and no one else was all that accommodating.
