    Mastro’s never disappoints. The food was OUTSTANDING! By far was the best food this time out of all the times we have been here. I had the Seabass special with King Crab, My husband had the Pork Chop. Both we’re out of this world. The manager even stopped by to check on us after everything. Truly an experience worth every penny.

    Eddie was a great server with helpful recommendations when hearing it was our first time visiting this impressive restaurant. The quality of food along with the well thought out recipes made this an extraordinary dining experience. The ambience was extremely comfortable, yet upscale at the same time. Clientelle looks to be locals, which says everything. The food was so outstanding, that it is now considered to be one of our top favorite restaurants in our long list of great places to dine, in the greater Fort Lauderdale area. "Bravo, Rainbow Palace"! We will be back for more.....
