Mastro's does not need me to write a review for them.  They are just EXCEPTIONAL period.  \nWe went there on 9/27 for hubby's birthday. Drinks were a bloody mary and a Brandy Alexander.  He wanted his bloody mary spicy but upon arrival it lacked horseradish. Lauren, our server, quickly took it  and brought it back with ample horseradish.  He tasted it and said something was missing.  I volunteered that it was Tabasco.  After all, that is essential for a good bloody mary.  Lauren brought some Tabasco and after he added it, the Bloody Mary was perfect (I have to deduct one star for not getting birthday boy's drink right).  My brandy alexander was made with ice cream.  In the east they use cream, here ice cream. OMG.  Amazing drink.  Readers, you have to try it.  \nThe assortment of breads was great.  Hubby only eats bread out because he is watching his girlish figure but this bread basket was his demise.  Ciabatta breads, olive bread, garlic flavored breads, pretzel breads.  Shall I go on like Forrest Gump?  \nHis appetizer of smoked salmon was delicious although not as good as the smoked salmon they sell in Paris in a common supermarket.  (I don't know how the french do it.  Their food is so above the mark.)  Anyway, his smoked salmon came with capers, chopped red onion, baby cucumbers and many pieces of toast.  I was wondering if after all that he could eat his meal.  I ordered the french onion soup made with Gruyere cheese (that's the cheese it's supposed to have, not mozzarella or swiss) It came piping hot in what I thought a metal jar that was really too big for me.  The broth was not too salty as happens often.  I finished it off and I think the french onion soup finished me.  \nNow for the entrees:   I foolishly fed hubby some fine steak at home the night before we went (DAAAH...) so he was not up to steak.  He ordered a 16 oz veal chop and sweet potato fries.  I had ordered one crabcake from the appetizer section as my entree and it came accompanied by some micro-greens, a lemon, tartar sauce, all nice and fresh, but I couldn't touch any else since I had had that sinful brandy alexander, assorted breads and that delicious french onion soup. ( I had it the next morning and the crab cake was delicious: almost no breading and all crab! Micro-greens were slightly spicy and dressed in a very, very light dressing: wonderful)  By the way, the take-out containers are beautiful, black boxes that could be used to wrap the finest of gifts.  Just saying.  These people go all the way on quality.  \nHubby ooo-ed and ahhhhed over his veal chop but he didn't believe it to be 16 0z as indicated on the menu.  I think that's the pre-cooked weight.  The sweet potato fries were not to be believed.  Firstly, the portion.  They were in a basket that was overflowing when they arrived at the table.  It could easily feed 5 people so if you are ordering them, remember that.  I am not a sweet potato fries fan but they looked so light and airy that I sampled them.  They were absolutely delicious.  Birthday boy was at his finest with all this good stuff around him.   When I thought that he couldn't enjoy himself more,  he ordered his birthday cake:  Chocolate Sin Cake.  It arrived on a creme anglais on the bottom of the plate with his name and happy birthday written in chocolate sauce, AND a separate bowl FULL of whipped cream.  I tasted the whipped cream and that was home-made stuff!  Yum.  The Chocolate Sin cake was slightly warm and hubby's eyes began to twirl in his head from the deliciousness of it all.  I am so glad I chose Mastro's City Hall for his birthday.\nMany thanks to our server, Lauren, and to the staff who made it all possible.
