This was our first visit to Mastro's and the food and service were superb! We enjoyed every morsel of food...even my 10 year old son enjoyed his steak and said it was delicious 😋! I also want to acknowledge LK, who was our server. He was great and so accommodating even though he was extremely busy. I really appreciated him taking care of us the way he did!

About the restaurant
Bobby Van’s Grill has a very loyal following of patrons who appreciate its first-rate, dry-aged steaks and seafood, phenomenal wine list, and exceptional professional wait staff – many of whom have worked for Bobby Van’s Grill for more than 15 years.

We have the largest private dining space of any restaurant in DC; Bobby Van’s Grill can accommodate guests in 7 different rooms! In the fall of 2018, it unveiled a newly renovated atrium (now known as The Atrium @ Bobby Van’s) that accommodates up to 330 people for private events.

Our server, Rudy, was exceptional!!!! If you can sit in his section, do it. He was on top of everything. For a party of 11, he asked all the right questions and cared for us. It was a mid-day holiday office lunch, and he made sure we were out of there to make it in time for other meetings while not losing the quality of service you expect from Bobby Van's. Thank you, Rudy and team, for an unbelievable experience. It has been a while since folks in our group went to Bobby Van's, and we will be back. Happy Holidays!
