Celebrated our anniversary here recently and had a fantastic experience. The setting is art deco brasserie spectacular, our server Jordan led a service team that provided an impeccable dining experience, and the food and libations were absolutely on point throughout. One of those rare places that can juggle casual dining alongside special occasions with aplomb and make it seem effortless.

We had an amazing experience at Mastro’s! Our server, Rice, was absolutely phenomenal. He was professional, attentive, fast-paced, and incredibly helpful throughout our visit. He made us feel right at home and even took the time to help us get pictures before we left, which was such a thoughtful touch! The atmosphere and overall vibe were fantastic. The pianist had the most beautiful voice, which made the entire experience even more special. Everything from the service to the ambiance was top-tier. We truly loved everything about this place and highly recommend Mastro’s! If you visit, ask for Rice. He definitely made our experience one to remember. We can't wait to come back!

Great food. Unobtrusive, yet attentive service, an elegant, relaxing atmosphere. I'm not sure how you could improve the experience. We are headed back tomorrow with a larger group to check out the flamenco dancing.

It was so good we ate there 2 nights in a row. I definitely recommend the NYY Strip steak. It was soooo delicious! Also for appetizers the Yucka and the tapioca ones were yummy. The best desert is the chocolate tres leches!!! I can't recommend it enough. Plenty big enough for 2 people to share. Maria was an EXCELLENT waitress. If these items are not on the menu you can absolutely trust her recommendations! She knows her Latin American food!
