- LLouisVIPLos Angeles •27 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoThis was our first time dining in this establishment. I've always heard great things about Mastro's and was excited to try their steaks. Made reservation ahead of time. Our server, Sean, was fairly new, but he was friendly and described the dishes extremely well. We ordered half dozen oysters to start, followed by a chopped salad to share. For our Entrees, I went with their Porterhouse, medium rate, and wife ordered a Pan Seared Sea Bass. She thought the fish was somewhat dry, so we talked to our server, and he was happy to assist us to swap the dish to something else. We decided to get their Seared Scallops; which was more expensive, but tasted phenomenal. My steak was very well seasoned and cooked to the right temp. We also ordered their Lobster Mashed Potatoes which was a good portion to share. It was full of flavor and tasted very buttery. Overall, experience was very good, we also ordered a couple of drinks to go along with our meal. To finish our dinner, we also ordered their Espresso Mouse Cake. It was very sweet, but was a good compliment with coffee.More infoMastro's Steakhouse - Costa MesaPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Costa Mesa•4.7

- OTOpenTable DinerVIPOrange County •2 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoCaleb was the best server ever! We love him. Great follow up, checked on us regularly and got us in and out in time for the holiday play. We were late for our reservation bc of traffic (helicopter accident at Camp Pendleton). Thank you Caleb! You deserve a raise.More infoWater Grill - South Coast PlazaPrice: Expensive• Seafood• Costa Mesa•4.8
- TTedOrange County •1 review5.0Dined 5 days agoWe moved to California 11 years ago. We started going to Black Sngus in Fountain Valley. It has been one of the most frequent visited restaurants since then - for my family birthday and anniversary gatherings and for intimate dinners with my wife as we did tonight for our 41st anniversary!More infoBlack Angus Steakhouse - Fountain ValleyPrice: Moderate• Steakhouse• Fountain Valley•4.4
- CcolleenLos Angeles •8 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoLoved the experience. Definitely will return. Food was very very tasty. I'd give food 4.5 stars if possible but because the shaky shaky beef was not as tender as everyone raved about, I gave 4 stars. Cocktails and papaya salad were superb.More infoLSXOPrice: Moderate• Southeast Asian• Huntington Beach•4.8
