Best Steakhouses in San Clemente

The food was fantastic, but the portions were a bit small for the price. For example, I had ordered the double thick pork but it was more equivalent to the size of a single thick in most other restaurants. However the service was outstanding as well.

Post Valentine's Day date! We wanted to go a fancy steakhouse. They were fully committed on Vday, so we were lucky to find reservations the day after. Parking: $8 Valet Parking Dress Code: Business Casual Ambiance/Environment: They have plenty of indoor seating. The inside is dark, but we were seated in the outer area where it was bright. Our reservation was at 16:30, and it wasn't as busy. It became busier around their dinner rush. Service: We checked in with the hostess, and we were seated promptly. Shout out to Alex! She was quick, efficient, and knowledgeable about the menu. She explained the whole menu to us since it was our first time dining there. She even recommended us her favorite dishes and popular dishes. We were constantly checked on, and our waters were filled a couple times. Food & drinks: 1) Bread & Butter (complimentary) - The bread was huge and soft! There was a generous amount of creamy butter. 2) Lobster Bisque - We started off with appetizers. The bisque was so creamy and not too thick. It had lots of flavors, but we prefer a bit more lobster bits. 3) Truffle Cream Corn - This paired deliciously with our steaks! The truffle flavor came through! The corn was sooo creamy! 4) Smoked Gouda & Bacon Au Gratin Potatoes - This also paired perfectly with our steaks! There was a generous amount of cheese and sliced potatoes. There wasn't as much bacon, only a few pieces. 5) Tomahawk Ribeye w/ Black Truffle Butter - My bf ordered this medium rare. I got to try some pieces. Although it looked medium well, it still cut easily and soft. The Black Truffle Butter gave it even more flavor. We definitely enjoyed it! 6) "Proprietary" Prime Cajun Ribeye - I ordered this medium rare. It cut easily and not too chewy. The cajun flavor didn't really come through, but I still enjoyed it. 7) Passion Margarita - Alex told us this was currently their popular cocktail. I love margaritas! I really liked this drink! Fruity & strong! Pricing: $$$$

Mastros is always a special place to celebrate our wedding anniversary ❤️ Dave and BJ were amazing, and our food, as always, was delicious. My husband ordered a double cut porkchop, and he said it was the best and most tender he's ever had. It was large enough for two. You can't beat the service you get there. Thank you for our special buttercake dessert and the 2 chocolate dipped strawberries 🍓 . We will be back.

We had a great dining experience. We felt so welcomed even though every table was full, the manager personally assisted us as well as several staff members. It's a cosy atmosphere and always a treat to dine here. The special lobster dish was delicious and my husband was delighted with his short rib stroganoff. Drinks were a generous pour which is also appreciated. The oatmeal raisin crumble was another amazing surprise. We are looking forward to returning soon.

Great experience and great food quality. Our service Fabio provided excellent customer service and very knowledgeable about the menu.
