This is why I love celebrating special occasions at Mastro's. It is perfect every single time. The staff welcomes you like family, and the waiter could not be more attentive without ever making you feel rushed. Food and drinks arrive perfectly prepared, every time. We came to celebrate my son's birthday — and he is a self-proclaimed food snob, so the bar was high. He loved everything. We started with the wedge salad (his personal favorite; he orders it every visit), French onion soup, tuna tartare (which the kitchen graciously adapted for our gluten-free guest), a lobster roll, and shrimp cocktail. Mains were the bone-in ribeye, an 8 oz. filet — petite, but cooked to perfection — blackened salmon, and sea bass. Sides: baked potatoes, creamed corn, and asparagus. And then the kitchen sent out a beautiful warm butter cake with a happy birthday message, compliments of the house. That kind of thoughtfulness is what sets this place apart. Well done, Mastro's. Going out feels like a luxury these days, so when I do, I want it to count. Skip the ordinary — give me Mastro's.

Food is excellent. Lots of well trained staff. Very nice night iut!

The food was amazing and to top it off, the service was just as good. Great family environment.

Our waitress was amazing and so kind! We dropped food on the floor on accident and she rushed over to take care of it and was super friendly.

New ownership, same great food and service. For the savory-minded, I recommend the fried risotto appetizer.
