    This was overall one amazing meal. The appetizers were close to perfect. The bacon steak perfect, fatty and full of flavor, it even came sliced. The prawns were special and excellent but $100 for 3, pricey. The scallops were solid but would've benefited from some basil and/or pesto, but cooked to perfection. The shrimp cocktail was very very good but the shrimp seem small next to the prawns. The server forgot to put in a salad and the entrees came out so we passed, it was not a big deal and he made up for it by removing the cinnamon butter cake that no one liked for the traditional one which was better in every aspect, flavor and texture. The entrees were cooked to perfection which was extremely important to me not just because they were prime steaks but because my last visits to Ruth and Flemings failed and severely overcooked my steaks as in ordered medium rare and received well done!!!! The sides were rich and full of flavor and complexity, we had the white cheddar mac which is probably the best mac u can find and the wild mushroom gnocchi which was my choice was delicious and in my opinion a huge portion. Drinks were crafted nicely, rye old fashioneds and something mango m fire or something like that, that was very good and definitely brought the "fire." The desserts other than the butter cake were probably the weakest part of the meal, they werent bad but nothing was amazing. We had the sin cake was a solid B, the creme brulee was not very good and seemed to have sat in the refrigerator next to other foods for too long as it tasted off, and the espresso cake was good but needed ice cream not just the milk/cream it comes with. It is not a souffle cake like i had hoped, but it was ok. Overall, it was one of the best meals I have had in a long time. The filets and ribeye were fantastic. The bacon steak and prawns were wonderful. I would absolutely come again, its clean, beautiful and the service was very very good. Well done Mastros.

    This is my favorite restaurant. However today was the first time I’ve ever had less than stellar service. Our waitress abandoned us for most of the meal: no checkin, no water refill, no coffee refill no check. The experience at night is completely different.

    After a wonderful Christmas visit, we topped it off by going to the Legends. I ordered the halibut which was delicious. I loved the served size, as it was not overwhelming. The service was warm and friendly. We found ‘A definite gem’.

    Outstanding evening here. We had reservations and we were seated promptly. Our waiter was Vito, who’s been there since they opened the restaurant. The experience and service Vito provided was amazing. What a consummate professional and amazing dining experience that he provided. Everything about this restaurant is just incredible. The food, wine selection and menu choices were outstanding. We highly recommend this restaurant!
