Visited for a special occasion with friends. The restaurant went out of their way to make it amazing. The seafood tower, sushi and steak were amazing. We finished with a butter cake, MUST HAVE!

I have been to mastros sf many times
The food is great the service is great and the drinks are huge and great
Portions are large so sharing is a good idea
The bread basket is divine
The best part of mastros sf though is the singer named Olivia who sings there about twice a week
She is incredible both her voice and her beauty
She is the main reason I go to Mastros
Waitstaff are wonderful too and manager Brian is very nice

We had a very bad experience. We ordered their dried aged ribeye and it came so tough and extremely chewy that I've never had ribey like this. So we had to return it. Then we ordered New York strip and it was almost 2 in thick which I've never seen any New York strip cuttted this thick. Their really not good with steaks
The atmosphere is dark, but classy and comfortable. They started us off with some bread and butter, and some drinks. We ordered a Pomegranate Martini and a Dream Berry. We loved the martini, but the Dream Berry was too sweet. We then had the lobster cocktail. It was cooked & chilled well, but had no flavor. For the main course, my husband had the porterhouse and said it was perfect. I had the Alaskan king crab legs, they were fantastic. Our sides were the twice baked potato and asparagus. For dessert, we ordered an espresso martini, a piece of chocolate cake with freshly made whipped cream. We tried the drink the Winter Whistler (irish cream, chocolate liqueur, sea salt caramel liqueur, coffee and whipped cream). The cake was delicious, however the two drinks were not our favorite. I order espresso martinis almost everywhere I go, and this was just overly intense on the espresso flavor. The Winter Whistler looked great on paper, but it just wasn't our taste. There's no question we'll return next time we're in town!
We recently dined at Mastro’s in San Francisco after having an outstanding experience at the Houston location. Unfortunately, this visit was a huge disappointment.
The food lacked the quality we’ve come to expect. Several dishes were overly salty, the live entertainment was underwhelming, and the whiskey selection was surprisingly limited compared to Houston. We were especially looking forward to a premium whiskey flight like the Pappy Van Winkle flight we enjoyed there, but nothing comparable was available.
The biggest disappointment, however, was the dress code. Before our reservation, I received a confirmation call reminding us of Mastro’s strict “business smart” dress code, and the website emphasizes it as well. We actually spent time making sure my husband’s outfit—a black dress shirt, dark jeans, and nice leather shoes—would be appropriate.
As it turns out, we worried for nothing.
The restaurant wasn’t enforcing the dress code at all. We saw people dressed as if they had just come from the gym, the pool, or straight out of bed. If the dress code is no longer important, that’s completely your decision—but don’t advertise a strict standard on your website and remind guests about it over the phone if you’re not going to enforce it. It sets expectations that simply aren’t met.
Houston’s Mastro’s delivers the upscale dining experience the brand is known for. Sadly, the San Francisco location did not. We’ll gladly return to Houston, but I can’t recommend the San Francisco restaurant.
