Established in 2014, Steak 48 is owned and operated by brothers Jeffrey and Michael Mastro, their father Dennis Mastro, and partner Scott Troilo. Working for the Mastro family for more than 25 years, restaurant veteran Oliver Badgio who serves as chief brand officer and has already become active in Philadelphia’s civic, philanthropic and social scene since construction began last year. Together, the group currently owns and operates four successful fine dining steakhouses, including Dominick’s Steakhouse and Steak 44 in Phoenix, and Steak 48 in Chicago and Houston. Over the years, the team created and developed the Mastro’s Steakhouses and Ocean Club seafood hotspots in Arizona and California, before selling the brand in 2007. Named as a subtle nod to their home state of Arizona being 48th state to join the Union, Steak 48 is an exciting new chapter for the Mastro Family and represents a refreshing approach and more gentle and interesting interpretation of the classic American steakhouse.
