Mastro's Steakhouse - Costa Mesa, California

Irena Do

Husband took me here tonight to kick off my birthday weekend - and the entire experience was stellar from the moment we walked in till the moment we left!

We arrived, valeted our car, walked in, and checked in with one of the hostesses. As we were waiting to be seated, another hostess came to bring another couple in front of the hostess stand to their table. The hostess at the front quickly and gently corrected her to let her know that we checked in before the other couple did, so we should get seated first.

After getting seated, we both got our own lobster bisques, because that’s one of the things in life you never share with your significant other - and they came out ASIAN HOT. Like, I scalded my tongue hot, AND I WAS SO HAPPY!!! I love Asian hot soup!!!!

And you guys, get the bread basket! I normally avoid carbs, but the bread is so good, it’s ridiculous.

I ordered the bone in fillet and only after I started cutting into my order did I realize that I was missing my bone. My husband let our waiter, David, know, and the poor man looked absolutely mortified as he checked his notes and realized the wrong order came out. He quickly offered to put the correct order in for me, but I declined, since I figured it didn’t matter much anyways. Plus, I’ve already started eating what was placed in front of me.

David left, but came back shortly after, saying he spoke with his manager and they insisted on rectifying this mistake and he already put the order in for me; since the flavor of the fillet was different with vs without the bone. When the correct bone in fillet was served, the manager, Samy, came to personally apologize for the wrong order, see if everything was to our liking, and to ask if he can do anything else to make our experience a good one.

And then to top it all off, they gave me a birthday cheesecake with a candle on top and a ridiculous amount of yummy whipped cream on the side.

Thank you both so much, David & Samy! You guys and your team absolutely went above and beyond kicking off my birthday weekend and we are so grateful. My husband and I definitely look forward to our next visit soon! ?

Wow! This was my first visit at Mastro's, and they did not disappoint! From the time you sit down, you are the most important person. You can have the menu customized for your occasion.

my wife and I loved it! It was our anniversary, and it was an amazing experience ❤️ the food was worth it for sure!! The service was wonderful and it looks beautiful inside. The lobster Mac and cheese was amazing, the herb chicken was very tender and juicy, the king crab fried rice was really good!!! We tried a little bit of everything but the portions are good enough for two people.. I'll definitely go back again its worth it for sure!

Very high end, fantastic steakhouse. I highly suggest getting the rib-eye. It was flavorful and cooked to perfection.
Their service was great as well, with the servers checking in at times to see if we needed anything.

Amazing meal as always, Mastro's: tried an off the menu Wagyu 6oz filet and that meat practically melted in my mouth! Paired with the 12oz on menu filet, there was no competition! Absolutely exquisite cut.
For dessert we had the traditional butter cake and the seasonal pecan butter cake. If you're a fan of butter pecan ice cream, that pecan cake is the bee's knees.

Great meal with great company and I wouldn't have it any other way!

6/17 update: had a great father's day meal with my family and Mastro's doesnt disappoint. I was fortunate enough to finish my meal with a few ounces of King Louis XIII and I ended up finishing the bottle they had! As tradition dictates, I finished the bottle so I got to take it home. Antony continues to be my favorite member of their wait staff and he continues to provide the service that makes us come back time and again!

Everything should be exceptional for the price you're paying, right? I'd go back ?

Amazing atmosphere great service.
The food is not that great compared to other steak houses. Aged steak looks like it was from the grocery store. Medium means you want to see the pinkish. I’m not usually complainer but Spending 500 on 2 people dinner must walk out happy and dinner to remember.

Food, cocktails, and wine were sublime. Had the bone-in Ribeye medium rare, half dozen Oysters, and the roasted brussel sprouts; all amazing.

Good service, pleasant ambiance.

The only downside to my dining experience was that it was too dark to read the menu's small print that I needed to use my phone flashlight.
