What a great spot! Owner is from Rome and his nephew waited on us. Best Italian meal I've had in a long time. Excellent wine selection. The Lake Superior smelt appetizer was a highlight

Beautiful space, wonderful service, great cocktails, but food was very underwhelming. Appetizer fried fish served tepid and soggy. Another appetizer drowned in tomato sauce and overly acidic. Main course fish overcooked and dry.

Little hidden Italian in the plaza that creates an atmosphere of escape in an area that could use some work (don't go on 6th Street). Feels cozy but tables are spaced enough to have privacy. Not too noisy for good conversation. Nice service.The food itself is really good. Feels very Mediterranean and the "bar" wine is excellent as well. It was a great surprise and a great time. The burger is amazing by the way...

First time here and it did not disappoint. Missed our last reservation and so happy we rescheduled. The ragu was out of this world! Matt the manager made us feel very welcome. Thank you 54 Mint for a wonderful birthday dinner. Cheers.

Great place for a girls dinner or just a group of friends catching up. The cocktails are amazing and the pastas were exquisite. Highly recommend the fettuccine al Funghi and panna cotta with balsamic.Vegetarian options: The Cacio e Pepe and fettuccine al funghi

Worth fettuccine pasta I had, it was watery and didn't had any taste as well as the salt. Tiramisu wasn't soaked in espresso and was dry. Poor service even if they had enough staff and restaurant wasn’t busy at all. Host was great, but I felt like dinner was waisted.

I came back to 54 Mint for lunch after experiencing a lovely dinner there last week. The ambiance is so different and lovely from day to night. Deliciously authentic Roman food and bright Italian wines, what's not to love? Even both my day and night servers were Italian. This very tastefully designed restaurant is tucked into a dead end street behind the Old Mint and I could have sworn I was in the North End of Boston. I want to try the whole menu.

Good Italian food in an upscale environment.Food in general is pretty good, we went in a group of 7 so got to try some variety.Antipasti - I especially liked the BUFALA E PROSCIUTTO, but feel like going with grissin is a little weird… I ended up spreading the cheese and meat on bread slices.Secondi - we tried the steak which is a special, it tastes great! The steak is at the right tenderness and saltiness. It’s a great portion too.Tiramisu can never go wrong at an Italian restaurant.It got a pretty upscale ambiance with a good selection of wine.The server came quite slow though so there were some long waiting periods between courses… also bread is not free…Post tax and fees $90 per person

Food and drinks were excellent. Atmosphere was a bit pretentious, the waiter claiming a few items were "the best in the world", as well as seeing fit to correct my pronunciation of "gnocci".

Great food in a quaint but elegant setting. There is a basement as well but it tends to get pretty loud down there. The service was fabulous and I would recommend it fora romantic night out.

The food and drinks were excellent. The wait staff even attended to our needs ensuring our meal would run smoothly with a show later in the evening. However, we were sat in the basement at a children's table that was too low and just barely accommodated me. To be fair, I'm 6' and slightly bearish, but it was clearly not at dinner table height. My elbows struggled to find purchase. Additionally, the basement is very echoy and we were sat by a large group of eight men that decided that yelling to each other was appropriate at a dining establishment which only made the dark basement even less appealing and the worst dinner atmosphere. The men only stopped yelling at each other for a brief period when their meals showed up. If I came back I would ensure to avoid the basement seating at all cost. (However, the restaurant should consider tossing out the kiddy table too.)
