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.

The view, food and vibe at the House on the River was great. Our server Macarena and the hostess Pilar were very polite, professional and attentive on our visit on Valentine's day. 10 out of 10 service. We will be coming back.
