text: Mastros has changed and not in any way they should be proud of Yes the premium prices remain and yes they do a fine steak but the new focus seems centered around the up sell I realize this is typical of most restaurants but Mastros had not been most restaurants Mastros was a place to share or celebrate a moment the place to have that special dining experience Our recent meal nights ago was the opposite Our waiter was tactless and clueless He asked if we wanted him to drop a seafood tower for the table and tried to talk one of the group out of their specific and preferred vodka drink to make a clumsy pitch for a different vodka pushed by management Every course presentation was more about selling than serving The service had previously been well timed and unobtrusive but on this occasion we were simply quick served in an attempt to cycle the table We even had a birthday in the group told the waiter who asked the name and specific spelling of the birthday guest only to do absolutely nothing with that informationno song no cakenothing Apparently a tab for does not merit such gestures Truly a disappointment in all regards If our experience represents the new Mastros style you would be wise to give some extra thought to where you chose to dine and celebrate We certainly will
