                                                    Server was new and was slow. But the food was great.

                                                    Our server was exceptional! I gave 4 stars only because the veal starter was not good at all. Tough meat, and I don’t think the sauce was homemade(don’t taste like it anyway). All the rest of the food was incredibly tasty, complex flavors, and we savored each bite. Cocktails were outstanding.

                                                    54 Mint has been a favorite place in the past, but last night's experience has changed that. They just weren't the same restaurant. For starters, for a party of three only one menu was provided. 1) Grilled Polpo (octopus) was ice cold and hadn't seen a hot grill in quite some time. The accompanying potato/celery was also refrigerator ice cold. 2) One entree, CODA alla VACCiNARA, my friend said was excellent. 3) The second person had the special mushroom risotto which he said "just OK." 4) I had the lamp chops, which for $45 were the smallest I've ever seen. Additionally the accompanying sauteed broccolini was not hot, as if cooked earlier, taken and set aside. 5) The service wasn't much better. Asking for ground pepper and we were brought a dish of pepper. Only after restating we wanted fresh ground pepper was a pepper mill brought out. We had to ask again each time something was delivered! In a high-end restaurant, I expect food to be cooked to order, served hot to warm, and certainly not cold.
