My wife and I decided to try Mastro's for the first time tonight. It did not disappoint. For an appetizer, we chose the wagu meatballs. We could taste the freshness of the sauce and cheese in the dish. For entrees, we both chose the boneless 12oz ribeyes. I chose the oscar topping option for my medium rare ribeye. My wife chose to pass on the sauce or topping option. Steaks were seasoned well and served at the proper temperature. We both loved the oscar option that was served with my steak. Both steaks were as close to perfect as we have ever had. For sides we chose the garlic mashed potatoes and the lobster Mac and cheese. Both were wonderful dishes. We saved room for dessert and chose the butter cake on the advice of close friends. If you're in the mood for a decadent dessert, this is the one. And finally, the service and ambiance was absolutely outstanding. The recommendations were great, our glasses stayed filled, and every member of the wait staff that we had interactions with was very cordial, always met us with a smile, and never intrusive. Outstanding experience 10/10! read more

When I moved to Columbus last year, seeing Mastro's was in the area made me feel closer to home. This is my favorite steakhouse. This location is highly popular and I can't blame anyone for wanting to eat here. Got the usual favs, petite filet, lobster mac & cheese, tuna app, bread service and butter cake! My friend never had the butter cake and found out what she was missing out on! Service was impeccable. The vibe was very modern steakhouse. Shout out to the live singer who made her way around the tables to introduce herself and ask for any request. She played some Bruno Mars for us. All and all another great dinner at Mastros. Tip: Arrive at least 15 mins before your reservation because parking can be tough at the lot. read more

Went here on recommendations from a friend. 8pm reservation. Place was pretty busy bar nearly full. Sat a few minutes early. Brandon was our waiter and he did an excellent job. Wife had 6oz filet I had the 16 oz strip. Both were fantastic. Garlic mash potatoes were very good. But the lobster bisk was simply amazing, my bowl had to have at least a 1/2 lobster tail in it...best I ever had. read more

Mastro's Steakhouse - Oyster rockafella. Waygu sliders. Waygu meatballs with melted Barrada cheese - Steakhouses Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

We celebrated my good friend's birthday. I couldn't have picked a better place. The staff was great from beginning to end from cocktail and wine selections to menu recommendations and any additional service we may have needed. They were on top of all of it such kind people and even with a large party, they were able to get everything just right. Something I must know is every staff member there was extremely kind whether they were our server or not and I appreciated that. read more

Great food and ambiance! My family made a reservation for me here for Mother's Day and I'm happy they did! Our reservation was at 5:15pm but we weren't seated for another 20 minutes or so. I believe they were overbooked because they had to open the private room to seat us. It was beautiful! They accommodated our group as well as 4 other groups to avoid longer wait time - appreciated. We ordered quite a bit of food, appetizers, cocktails, bread service, 4 entrees and sides. One slight complaint is that my husband's ribeye was overcooked slightly. He prefers medium and there was barely any pink center. For the price of the steak, it should be cooked according to how it was ordered. We did not send it back due to us wanting to enjoy dinner together without my husband having to wait for another steak. The NY Strip was cooked at a perfect medium temp. The scallops were to die for and so tender with the garlic butter sauce (and garlic bread). Regarding the Cosmo cocktail, it could use some improvement - we've had much better. The dry ice effect was nice though. Our server was very accommodating and had a great attitude and demeanor. We felt welcomed and will visit again. The decor and ambiance in this restaurant is very warm and elegant. We loved it! Complaint: the servers that box up the food mixed all of our food together in various containers. Of course we didn't notice until we opened the food the next day. Please fix this in the future. read more

This was our first visit to Mastro and overall it was very good. We were seated within a couple of mins of arriving -- should be expected but a lot of Columbus area restaurants these days make you wait an additional 15-20 mins because they haven't managed the reservations appropriately. The server was friendly and explained the menu in detail. My Mastro Manhattan and my wife's Pinot noir were excellent (very large pours too!). The bread service comes at a nominal charge -- looked a lot better than it tasted--could be improved. The shrimp appetizer was delicious but on the heavy side. We shared the 22oz bone in ribeye. It was cooked perfectly, was tender and delicious. I really enjoyed the steak even thought we weren't able to finish it all. The side sautéed spinach was pretty good as well. The ambiance is nice and festive -- a little unusual to have so many TVs on for a higher end steakhouse -- but I didn't mind it at all. I look forward to returning. read more

Mastro's is beautifully decorated inside with friendly staff. We had a reservation at this place and soon as we arrived we were seated right away. This place was packed when we arrived. Went to celebrate my birthday, and because my husband stated when making the reservation that it was my birthday, they printed out the menu with "Happy Birthday Antora" on the top. And that made my night! We ordered Lobster Mashed Potatoes and shrimp cocktails for appetizers and for entrée we ordered the Sea Bass and the Branzino. Everything tasted great. Our server was very sweet and friendly. Eventhoug the place was super busy; our server came and checked up on us several times. read more

Oh, Mastros... When Mastros came to Columbus, I knew that it was going to be our next anniversary spot! Well, it was - however, it did not live up to the hype! We had a reservation last night (6:30 PM on a Friday). We were seated immediately. Our waitress (Ashlynn) was wonderful! She greeted us by congratulating us on our anniversary and asking what the secret to 8 years was. It was sweet! For drinks, I had a nice pour of Argyle Pinot Noir ($23) and my husband had a couple of Stellas ($8/each). For apps, we went with a bread basket ($5) and two Caesar salads ($16/each). The bread basket was nice - this was an assortment of fresh breads that were served with soft butter. The Caesar salads were good (large portion, crispy Romaine, and every piece was coated with dressing); however, the dressing was a little overpowering with anchovy paste/sauce. Trust me, I love a good Caesar salad that has anchovy paste/sauce in it, but this was a little too much! I also thought that the croutons were a bit too crunchy so I ended up leaving those on my plate. For our entrees, I ordered the sautéed sea scallops ($60), my husband ordered the 22 oz bone-in ribeye ($91), and then we shared the garlic mashed potatoes ($16) and sautéed corn ($16). Let's start with the sautéed sea scallops. The scallops were my least fave and super salty! They were also topped with Parmesan cheese which made them even more salty. I ate one and a half and was done! I also cannot get over serving FIVE scallops for $60 and then serving them with five large pieces of garlic bread to fill the plate (see my pic). Like why? Meanwhile, the ribeye was absolutely delish! It was lightly charred, perfectly pink, seasoned well, and super juicy! We loved it! The garlic mashed potatoes were good - they were creamy and had good flavor. The sautéed corn was not sautéed nor seasoned - it was like they dumped a can of corn in the bowl, stirred some butter in it, and then served it - we were not impressed For dessert, we were served with a large piece of chocolate layered cake and a side of their house-made whipped cream! They were both SO good! With my food review aside, the service was absolutely exceptional! I loved the white jackets that all of the servers wore - it was as if they were wearing white to provide white gloved service (and they all did)! We also loved Armando! He consistently cleared our plates, silverware, and cleaned our table whenever he had a chance. At one point, we walked away from the table to take a photo in the entryway and came back to a clean table and our napkins refolded. There was also a live pianist/singer behind us whom I enjoyed as well. I thought that he had a soothing voice! Overall, the service (and steak) was 5 star; however, when you add in everything else - I am giving Mastros a 3 star rating. read more

Our server Brian made our Christmas dinner very warm and inviting. His service was top notch, from drink recommendations to making sure we knew all of the amazing menu options. The food came out fresh and flavorful. It's a very upscale restaurant and dress code is enforced but a suit jacket isn't required. read more

Mastro's Steakhouse - Birthday Dinner on Jan 31. - Steakhouses Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

See all

Mastro's is a new-ish steakhouse in Easton, and we had the opportunity to dine there recently. While the interior is decorated beautifully, a couple of things stood out to me. First, the tables in the main dining area are too close to each other, making for a louder-than-you-like noise level (especially for a restaurant on the high end). Second, while the west-facing window is nice and wide, the sun setting during dinner hour is blinding. That said, the food and drinks were delicious. Everything is a la carte, so we ordered a few different side dishes to complement our main entrees. The Lobster Mashed Potatoes side was our favorite - it is so rich and filling that it is easily shareable. While we also enjoyed our Filet and the Sea Bass, we felt the Branzino was a little underwhelming in the flavor department. Our server was friendly and helpful, and while service was slow (through no fault of his - the place was busy), he was very patient with explaining the menu to us. They are relatively new and still working out their kinks, so I look forward to visiting Mastro's again the future once things settle down a bit more. read more

Yes the food and the dinning experience was awesome! The service and restaurant were a great dinning experience!

I was excited to try this location out. We walked in around 5:30pm on a Saturday and were lucky to be able to be sat right away at a bar top table (we didn't have a reservation). Not a huge fan of the layout of the restaurant, I didn't feel like it was anything special. The tables are set up in a sort of big, L shape, with the bar and the bar seating in the middle... or bottom corner of the L. We were two tables away from the piano, and I was worried it was going to be loud, but when the guy started playing, it was actually pretty nice. His voice was soft and smooth, and added a nice ambiance to the restaurant. Our waitress was great! She was attentive and I never felt like I need to wait for anything. We really liked the brown bread and she came back with an entire basket of it. Now the food, I expected to be dazzled by the food, but was left kind of disappointed. Everything was fine, nothing was incredible. My friend and I split a bone in ribeye, we asked for it to be carved (pre-sliced), but it came out just cut into two halves, as you can see from the photo. It was plenty, and we both took some home. The leftovers were not great, I usually love leftover ribeye... We also got the garlic mashed potatoes. They were good, nothing memorable. The roasted cauliflower was ok, it has a kick to it. The truffled wild mushrooms were very very salty, I didn't taste much truffle. We also got the bread service and it was ok. The brown bread was our favorite. We ordered chilled shots of Lalo tequila (they didn't have Don Julio blanco) with a Coke back... and were brought two lukewarm mini bottles of Coke. All in all, the food was fine. But nothing amazing. Service was great tho! read more

Let's start with the good: the ambiance and decor are enough to make you want to stay. It's definitely got that sleek vibe that works well for a pregame stop or a girls' night out. Now, onto the food. It was just okay. The Rockefeller oysters were the highlight -- small, yes, especially for $30, but flavorful enough to steal the show. I had the halibut, cooked to the chef's preference, and unfortunately, it came out overcooked and heavily seasoned. Not ideal. The lobster mac and cheese? Well-seasoned, but it lacked cheesiness and had barely any lobster throughout. At this price point $45, I expected more. I let the server know about the fish, and while they did comp us a cheesecake, I honestly would've preferred the dish taken off the check. I didn't press the issue, but still -- service and quality should go hand-in-hand at this tier of pricing. Final bill? $345. The result? Just okay. Everyone's experience is different, so go get yours -- but personally, I expected better from a steakhouse at this level. read more

This evening, I had a dinner reservation at 4:00 PM at Mastro's Steakhouse, where I was graciously greeted by Walter Carpenter, the former owner of The Royce. Upon entering, Mastro's was truly lovely; a stunning wine display graced both sides of the entryway, leading to the hostess stand. Ample seating was available at the bar. Mastro's is a high-end steakhouse, and the menu reflected this. As I wasn't very hungry, I ordered an appetizer and a side dish, which proved to be more than enough for one person, perhaps even two meals. I politely declined the $5 bread service. The service was impeccable, precisely as anticipated, and Ginger provided exceptional attention. My bill included: Large Acqua Panna® water ($10), Wagyu meatballs with melted burrata cheese ($29), white cheddar mac and cheese ($16), and an $16 gratuity. read more

Excellent restaurant. Gorgeous interior. Great outdoor dining patio. Excellent, very-well trained staff. Delicious food. All in all, one of the nicer restaurants in Columbus. We found ourselves comparing Mastro's to Hyde Park, which (for us) is high praise. The General Manager Walter Carpenter is a gracious and classy guy. Can't say enough good about him. We will return, and we fully expect to have another great meal. read more

Mastro's has a grand entrance that makes you feel good walking in, the ambiance is beautiful and elegant with artistic flair. We were introduced to two spectacular people at our table, Bradley & Charity. These two were extremely professional, polite and on point. The table assistants were very professional as well, quick to clean and refresh drinks The food was delicious , a suggestion from Bradley hit the palette perfectly. I was celebrating my 30 years on the job and retirement, for dessert Bradley and Charity surprised us with a magical dessert that had other tables looking. I included a previous review and I wanted to say thank you to the manager for protecting the customers, NO ONE WANTS TO SMELL A SKUNK WEED SMELL WHILE EATING DINNER!!! Having a manager that takes pride in fine dining and protects the customers means a lot. read more

We came to Mastro's in a Friday night to celebrate a special occasion and we had a great time. The space is beautiful! I was very impressed and now understand why it took so long to open lol. They had live music throughout the night in the bar and I will admit, I'm not a live music fan, but I reslly enjoyed the artist they had! He played crowd favorite acoustic songs such as Viva La vida by Coldplay and Just the Two of Us by Bill Withers. The whole restaurant was enjoying it and it really made the ambiance happy, major kudos to the manager for this decision. Our waitress was so kind and helpful, I wish I knew her name. I only know she got married recently and her husband is from LA, so if someone reads this, please give her a shoutout! We started with the bread basket which isn't complimentary, but it should be with the prices on everything else. It was just $5 but still. It was delicious though and had an assortment of breads, similar to the basket at capital grill. I had the spicy mambo salad, which is a Caesar dressing with horseradish and blue cheese added. I'm not a blue cheese fan at all, so I was hesitant and to help, our waitress brought out the dressing for me to try. Very sweet of her. Surprisingly I didn't taste the blue cheese as it was blended in. I opted for parm on top instead of blue cheese too. It was spicy! That horseradish hits the back of your nose and mouth but nevertheless was good and something different. My boyfriend ordered the Italian chopped which he enjoyed but he didn't care for the olives in the salad. Nothing on the menu has descriptions so he wasn't aware. He was able to pick them out so it was no big deal. I had the 16oz NY strip and he had the Kansas City strip. Both were absolutely delectable and cooked perfectly. The plates come out HOT. Normally I think "oh yeah but I can still touch it with my fingers of steel" but NO. The plates are 400 degrees hot, literally. The steak was still sizzling for a solid 10 minutes after it was dropped off. I thought that was something unique and fun. We ordered the broccolini, mac and cheese, and a side of fries. They have a normal order of fries, but the sizes are gigantic, so our waitress let me know I could get a smaller side which was even still huge. The fries were good but nothing special, I'd probably skip next time. They kinda tasted like fries every restaurant uses. The Mac and cheese was gooey and cheesy. The portion was also huge. The broccolini was seasoned well and tender. Very good. We were so stuffed by the end but they let us know we could have a complimentary dessert for our occasion and would box it up. When I got home, I opened it to find a piece of chocolate cake and a separate box of SO much homemade whipped cream. At least 3 cups worth. It was yummy. Overall, our food, the service, and ambiance were excellent. We had the manager check in on us multiple times and even walked us out after. I will definitely be back and would recommend it to people looking for a very nice dinner. read more

Sitting at the bar while waiting for our table, there was Kyle (bartender). We asked for our drinks and they were absolutely delicious. An espresso martini, in a chilled martini glass was perfectly made. When it was time to move to our table, I turned around to find three servers standing to carry our drinks to our table. That was a class act! Next our main server was Rob and his recommendations were also perfect. You can slice your steak with a butter knife. The place is beautifully decorated with some of the most beautiful lighting displaying a very nice ambient atmosphere. You might think it's expensive but it's totally worth the experience. read more

This was our second visit to Mastro's, and we definitely found our go-to orders! We didn't take photos this time, but we started with the tuna slices appetizer and absolutely loved it. My husband had the lamb chops, and he said they were the best he's ever had perfectly charred on the outside yet cooked to medium rare perfection. I went with the branzino with cream sauce, which was delicious, though at $55 it felt a little overpriced since branzino is a fairly inexpensive fish. Still, you're really paying for the ambiance and the overall experience, which makes it worth it. We finished the night with the cherry crumble and vanilla ice cream, which we brought back to enjoy in bed Such a great evening! read more

I had been to the Mastro's in Scottsdale, which was an outstanding, elevated meal with excellent service so I was excited to take my husband to the new Mastro's at Easton for his birthday. What a disappointment. I'll tell you why. The interior is beautiful. The clientele could be eating at Applebees. They have a dress code and it is not enforced...at all. Baseball hats, jeans, street wear and clothing that leaves nothing to the imagination. The interior is crowded with tables and we were on top of all the women at the bar looking for company. The entryway is small and, although I had a reservation, we were forced to stand shoulder to shoulder with 16 other people waiting for tables while the waitstaff maneuvered across and through us and the hostess stand with placesettings and trays of food. We waited 20 minutes for our table to be ready. At that point, I knew we were in trouble. Once seated, the music was so loud that people had a hard time hearing at our table. Waitress was fine but not attentive and did not warrant the tip I left on an almost $500 bill. The restaurant felt overly crowded and the management felt like it was, at times, scrambling; other times, they were standing at the bar socializing. Lobster bisque was too salty and had to be sent back. It was not replaced or credited to my bill. An offer to do either would have been appreciated. Steaks were very good, as well as the broccolini, macaroni and cheese and the baked potato. Mastro's charges expensive prices and this location needs to have management raise the standards to create an elevated experience that matches the food and decor. Super disappointing birthday dinner and a waste of a lot of money. Do better. read more

Beautiful restaurant, very good service great food. First thing: what they state for dress code is out the window. They state no athletic wear or revealing clothing. Several men were wearing polar fleece and 1 guy had a hoodie (which their site specifically says is a no no). A guy came in with a hat and they made him remove it. As for the food we started with the roasted bone marrow (delish) and the tuna tartare (very good, presentation was a little old school). We shared a Caesar salad (very good). For the main course we ordered the 33oz. Chef cut ribeye, black truffle cauliflower and a baked potato (this comes loaded). Everything was tasty only issue nothing was really hot, warm not hot. Our server Emilia was great but the kitchen was very slow. Dinner took over 3 hours. Lag time between courses was long. Other tables around us seemed to get their food faster. Overall a nice dinner. Totally recommend. read more

What a great dining experience. Not only was the food excellent, but the service was above and beyond with a brigade of individuals attentively adding so much value to the dinner. We sat in the middle of the dining room and the place was crowded so you can imagine how loud it was, but it made for a fun atmosphere. Definitely try the 12 oz. bone-in filet; they recommend medium if you prefer medium rare because their steaks are cooked towards rare. The recommendation was spot on. read more

There are currently credible accusations that work done on the restaurant by contractors, work passed inspection and contractors were not paid prior to opening and liens have been filed. As a consumer it is difficult to determine the veracity of these claims. Until Mastro's addresses these seemingly credible claims, I will choose other options. From a PR perspective alone. Mastro's should lay these issues to rest. If the accusations are false tell the public why. If true, setting expeditiously, will avoid erosion of public confidence read more

This is a high-end steakhouse. Every shaken cocktail is 1.5 cocktails. The service is beyond perfection. The food is very good.
