BWW Reviews: MASTRO'S STEAKHOUSE in NYC is Superb Dining

The ceilings soar and so do your spirits when you visit Mastro's Steakhouse.

Lunchtime, dinnertime or anytime is just right to visit this renowned restaurant now open in Midtown at 1285 Avenue of the Americas on the corner of 52nd Street. Mastro's is only a short walk from Broadway and so close to Radio City, Rockefeller Center, MOMA and 5th Avenue shopping

Manhattanites can now enjoy outstanding dining that has been the signature of Mastro's Steakhouse in locations that include Chicago, Beverly Hills and Las Vegas. Mastro's NYC is elegant, yet accessible, a welcoming restaurant with top-notch cuisine and excellent service.

Mastro's Steakhouse in New York City's Executive Chef is Dusmane Tandia who brings a wealth of culinary expertise and creativity to the restaurant. Their menu includes signature items and very special highlights.

We visited on a Saturday evening. We love the fact that Mastro's accommodates small and large parties, perfect for date night or when you're gathering a group. The bar was in full swing with wonderful live entertainment.

Sushi lovers will delight at Mastro's inventive offerings. We enjoyed the Ahi Tuna Tostada with ponzu chili sauce. Soup selections include two favorites, rich French Onion and a light but creamy Lobster Bisque. We highly suggest the Mastro's House Salad, a meal in itself with the freshest vegetables perfectly garnished.

While known for the finest steaks and chops, Mastro's has a great selection of seafood. We tried their tender Filet Mignon and also enjoyed the Chilean Sea Bass. Accompaniments include Lobster Mashed Potatoes, a really creative twist on this side dish. The Roasted Brussels Sprouts are delicious and you can have your favorite vegetables like asparagus, spinach and broccoli steamed or sautéed.

Mastro's desserts are luscious in generous portions. Treats like their Signature Warm Butter Cake is a grand finale to your meal.

Mastro's bar and lounge are the ideal spot to have a cocktail before dinner or to stop by with friends and colleagues. The beverage program is superb and fully compliments their culinary experience.

Mastro's Steakhouse is open Monday through Friday for lunch and dinner and on Saturdays and Sunday for dinner. Private dining space is available for corporate gatherings and celebrations.
