Mastro’s Ocean Club in Downtown LA does it again. The Service, Food, and ambiance were incredible. Located directly across the street from the Crypto Arena, Mastro’s makes for a good choice before a Laker Game. Our waiter, Chris, was very attentive and the live music was outstanding. We enjoyed our Martini’s, the spicy Mambo salad, Filet, mushrooms, and baked potato with caviar. If you’re looking forward to a high end meal before visiting Crypto, I highly recommend Mastro’s .

Water Grill has always been a great lunch location for me. 2 people for $83 before tax is steep for sure. Service and food is great, just the price point is a bit excessive.

Went for lunch, the food was fantastic. Especially liked the pizza with prosciutto, and the pesto handkerchief is always the best. Service was spot on, attentive, friendly and efficient. Will definitely be back!
