The Penthouse at Mastro's

Great steakhouse with a classy vibe. We dined at Mastro's in Beverly Hills after it was recommended by our friends. We were able to make last-minute reservations, and the restaurant wasn't too crowded. We ordered the bread basket for the table and they brought out a fine variety of warm bread that we couldn't stop eating. We decided to share the Chef's Cut New York strip. I thought it was cooked perfectly and was delicious. The Garlic Mashed Potatoes were also very good (and a huge portion that can be shared between 3 or 4 people). Our waiter and the staff was very courteous. We ordered dessert after their closing time, and they didn't rush us at all even though we felt bad for staying late. Speaking of dessert, the Warm Butter Cake was really good. The restaurant was expensive, but that was anticipated since it's a nice steakhouse located right in Beverly Hills. A lot of people were celebrating their birthdays there and it looked like the perfect restaurant for a celebration.

Love this place. One of my favorites. It's expensive but you get what you pay for. Love their Martinis - they are huge. You literally get 2. Staff are always so nice and helpful. Butter cake is amazing. Highly recommend.

Shrimp cocktail 10/10. They were perfectly plump, fresh, and appropriately priced. The horseradish and cocktail sauce are exquisite. The lobster was also fantastic. Perfectly prepared, pricey, but given the location, fairly priced. The sides were underwhelming. The mac n cheese was oily, separated, and flavorless. The garlic mashed potatoes were very average as well. You get large portions on the sides, but the quality just isn’t there for a restaurant of this caliber. I did enjoy the mojito. It was fresh and strong. The key lime pie was delectable but their “famous” butter cake was very average. I also don’t understand why they serve a heaping bowl of whipped cream with their desserts. The waitstaff was attentive and knowledgeable. No complaints there. The atmosphere is Beverly Hills people that are upper echelon or surely think they are upper echelon. Depending on your opinion of such people, you may either enjoy or detest such company. All that said, I would return for the shrimp cocktail and a mojito.

The portions were shockingly enormous. I couldn't believe how large the meatball appetizer, bread basket, side dishes, and cake (see pic) were. Really, they were much too large for two people of average size with average appetites. We left feeling guilty about the wasted leftovers. All that said, everything was tasty, especially the bread and the gnocchi. Our server, MoMo, was just the right amount of attentive and friendly.
