    It was a busy valentines evening and unfortunately the kitchen had a problem with their system which messed our order up so I came at all different times. Instead of a hollow apology the server and their manager looked after us and more than made up for the problem. Great customer service.

    This place is so aesthetic with mood lighting, high ceiling, and a buzzing atmosphere. Service from Makaela was top notch fantastic on Galentine’s (2/13)! We need more people like her. Cocktails were good. I got the Crimson & Clover (refreshing) and my friend got the spicy Tree of Life. Food was plated beautifully and the only complaint was saltiness for the pasta, pork chop, and mushrooms. We let them know. Flavors were delicious aside from that. They serve complimentary amouse bouche (savory cone with steak tartare & caviar that day), a palate cleanser to sip on (chilled honey citrus liquid), and even mini waffle bowls filled with chocolate ganache. So many nice surprises! We ended the night with sweet, hot n freshly fried loukomades beignets with honey, nuts, and angelaise cream hand poured table side. Excellent experience!

    We were a large party dining of 20. Our event planner and our server handled our event really great. We enjoyed the food especially desserts and most of our requests were granted. However, the servings of pasta and grilled pollo were not enough. Our other guests ended up looking for more. We were promised that the servings would be more than enough but they’re not.

    We were in Mastro’s celebrating my son’s birthday. The staff made him feel very special and in the end they got a fabulous way of presenting a birthday cake for him. Every single dish we ordered were amazing and wine was good too! I would highly recommend Mastro’s.
