| - Mastro's never disappoints.
But their Ocean Club locations, in my opinion is the better than their "Steak House" locations, because the ambiance is quieter and more enjoyable.
This is our second time visiting this location, and both times we have left extremely happy and full.
The first visit we didn't make reservations, but they were able to accommodate since it was a Monday, this visit we made reservations, but it was on a Monday as well, so they weren't busy anyway.
The staff was very helpful and provided excellent service; never had to ask for our water to be refilled and were always attentive asking if we were doing okay.
Food: We started the meal off with escargot and bone marrow. Both items were very delicious. Mastro's is honestly the only restaurant where their marrow is enjoyable because it is cooked to the point where there is zero blood, I don't know if that is the correct way to cook marrow, but that's my personal preference. My boyfriend loves their escargot. It is cooked, buttered, and seasoned perfectly. As for our entree we shared their Colorado rack of lamb as well as their sautéed spinach. Both items were cooked excellent as well. To end the night we ordered their famous warm butter cake. In all honesty, their butter cake is the main reason we love Mastro's. There isn't anything like it. The warm, sweet, soft cake paired with the vanilla ice cream just go so well together.
Overall, we love Mastro's and anytime there is a location we are staying at, we make it a goal to check that location off the list. So far we have been to the Newport Beach and Beverly Hills location here in SoCal, and the location in Chicago. It is so good, how can you not!
