Editorial Review for Mastro's Steak House – by Alison Kramer
In Short
Akin to an opulent cavern, this lit space is lined with walls of towering onyx wine bottles and dramatic fabrics. Couture-clad patrons linger over cocktails and live jazz in the lounge, or step into the two-story dining space where tuxedoed waiters tend meticulously to diners in high-backed chairs. In addition to cuts of aged and marinated meats, the menu offers imaginative add-ons like gorgonzola mac and cheese, steak sashimi and crab-stuffed mushrooms.

Insider Tips
What to DrinkFlavored martinis reign at the bar, where sultry concoctions like "flirtinis" consist of vodka, pineapple juice, cointreau and champagne, and are served up with a smoldering cube of dry ice.

I go here at least once a month and love it. Everything I have ever tried has been amazing. The bone in filet and buttercake and something you just have to try.

We love to try different steakhouses and this one was a big disappointment. My boyfriend and I both started with caesar salads which should have been called caesar soup. The dressing had good flavor, but the salad was completely drenched in it. Disgusting!!!He ordered the NY Pepper Steak and I had the Bone-in Ribeye. Both steaks were completely bland. The NY Pepper Steak was tasteless and tough. The Ribeye was okay, but very bland. We also ordered garlic mashed potato with our steaks which tasted like powered mash potato, very tasteless. Not only was the food very bland the service was also awful. The room we were in had all female servers, not sure if this was a good or bad thing. Our server Nichole was very unattentive and a bit absent-minded. We ordered our wine and had to repeat ourselves a couple of time for her to finally hear our order. Also she forgot our side item. We had to ask again for the mashed potato when the steaks came out. There are far better restaurants in Orange County for steak. I think if you're paying $100+ per person for dinner, both the food and service should be great. We feel totally ripped off. Turner New Zealand and Ruth Chris are better choices for steaks. Not only is the service better, so are the steaks. My other choices for good steaks would be Flemings and Bistango.
Pros: We liked the dark decor and dim lighting
Cons: Poor Service, Over Priced Food that was below average.
