Unforgettable Dining Experience! Mastro’s truly exceeded our expectations. From the moment we walked in, the elegant ambiance set the stage for an extraordinary evening. The atmosphere was sophisticated yet inviting, perfect for a special occasion or a memorable night out. The service was impeccable—attentive, professional, and welcoming. Our server ensured every detail of our dining experience was flawless, which enhanced the overall enjoyment. Now, the food. Every dish we ordered was a masterpiece: • Fried Calamari ($22): Perfectly crispy and flavorful. • A5 Wagyu Beef Roll ($37): Melt-in-your-mouth decadence. • King Crab Fried Rice ($45): Rich, fragrant, and generously packed with crab. • New York Strip 16oz ($71 each): Juicy, tender, and cooked to perfection. For the price, you’re not just paying for food—you’re investing in a complete dining experience. Mastro’s delivers on all fronts: ambiance, service, and culinary excellence. Without hesitation, we’d recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning soon!

First time coming to this restaurant, but definitely will be back! A friend took me there to celebrate my promotion at work. Val, Diego, Matt, and Daniel were all so professional but friendly and knowledgeable, they made my night. Food was delightful, and the drinks were amazing 👏 🤩 Can't wait to be back

We went there for the first time for my husband's birthday dinner. Our server, Brandy, was attentive and friendly and made great recommendations. " Brandy went out of her way to ensure that my husband's birthday dinner experience was exceptional." The food here is delicious! We had salmon, which tasted very fresh, with the lobster mash, and the crab cake was the best. And the cake they brought for my husband was mind-blowing. We had a blast there, and the service was top-notch. "  Brandy brought a personal touch to our evening, and we happily departed. " Thank you, Brandy. I hope to see you again soon.

We went here to celebrate my birthday. I ordered the 8 oz Wagyu and was not satisfied. It had so much fat! There was fat in each bite, unfortunately. I did not complain to the restaurant, although for a $150 steak, maybe I should have. The rest of the meal was nice, and the service was amazing. Our waitress, Luna, was a delight. We dined outside, and it was lovely. I plan on returning, but I will be trying another steak.

Mastro's offers a culinary experience akin to Boston's most delicious fever dream, if you're willing to indulge yourself. It takes a special sauce for a restaurant to achieve the "Three Hours of Dining Were an Odyssean Blur, Without the Downfall" status. Let's examine the ingredients. The food lacks creativity and fails to push boundaries of flavor; instead, it's heaped on plain white plates in soulful meals cooked to perfection. The seafood tower was fresh and presented functionally, although without the oysters' flavor profile. The shrimp and garlic bread, drenched in sauce and butter, was rich and dangerously filling. The lobster sushi roll was served, unconventionally, in a creamy sesame lobster sauce, which complemented the simpler tuna sashimi. Real wasabi was an added bonus. The wild mushroom and black truffle gnocchi has a reserved spot on my (not too distant) gravestone, the king crab fried rice and chilean sea bass melted in the mouth but lacked some flavor, and the lamb rack was well seared but rested slightly too long before being taken out of the kitchen. Celebratory dessert consisted of various cakes served with fresh fruit and pleasing plating. Forgive me Lord, for I have committed gluttony. The wine menu was plentiful and cocktails were tasty, but not exceptional. Our server, Yenni, was blessed with the exceptional waitress gene. She regaled us with stories and treated us with attentive service and a commanding knowledge of the menu. The restaurant also has a few tricks up their sleeve for special occasions. Yenni, if you're reading this, you remind me of Awkwafina (I'm a fan of Awkwafina). Anyway. Decor is lavish yet easy on the eyes, with black tones and warm lighting. Mastro's sits by the harbor, making outdoor seating a must during warm weather. There's also wonderful live music. Come for the location, stay for the food, and feel pressured to stuff your face. It's entirely appropriate here.

Beautiful Atmosphere I Expected Nothing Less From An Ocean Club. Food Was Keen To The Mastro’s Standard. Special Thanks To Alexis(The Server) For His Knowledge & The Second To None Service. The Icing On The Cake For My Birthday Was Fabiola (The Manager) Coming To Check On Us In The Middle Of Our Meal. Thank You For Everything See You Soon.

This place never disappoints! The seafood tower is absolutely incredible—fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. Diego and Matt are fantastic; their service is both friendly and efficient, making every visit a pleasure. The bar has a great atmosphere and is easily one of the best around. I always look forward to coming here. Highly recommend!

First off I would like to shout out Tony for his phenomenal customer service. He made the experience for us very pleasant and comfortable. You never really come across great waiters so often. If you go to Mastros I’d highly recommend Tony as your waiter.
