"Wow! What a gem. We stopped here for dinner and dessert and just had to come back for breakfast, and everything was exceptional. The soft serve ice cream (made with oat milk) that they have is my favorite vegan ice cream that I have ever had. It's amazing. They have shaded and comfy outdoor seating. For dinner we had the chili soup, some garlic bread, the Guadalajara burger, and the Chupacabra Chic'n sandwich. Everything was super full of flavor and delicious. For desert, we got an ice cream to split and a slice of chocolate cake. The ice cream was absolutely wonderful. The cake was the weakest point of the meal, a little dry. But, it was still tasty. We knew during dinner that we just had to come back for breakfast (and more ice cream). We ordered a bagel sandwich and a tostada. My partner loved his sandwich. He gave me a piece of the tofu on it, and I normally don't like tofu that isn't very crispy, but was super tasty and flavorful. My tostada had a bunch of guac on it (not just a tiny scoop like some places do), and the flavors of the beans and guac were rich. The jalapeños added a nice kick (although, I'm sure you could get it without them if you don't like spicy). The ice cream was, again, amazing. I also got an agua fresca that was really pleasant on the hot morning. The staff members were very nice, were happy to answer any of our questions, and were generally quite helpful. 10/10"

"We had a nice time at dinner but I'm just shocked at the prices of everything. I had a bowl of angel hair pasta with marinara sauce and a couple pieces of cut up asparagus and I paid over $25.00, my husband had pesto fettuccine with sausage and he found the sausage to be dry and not good. The dinner special was a whitefish with mashed potatoes and asparagus and I usually never ask how much but did this time and it was $48.00...really? Happy hour there is always good but we won't be back for dinner. Service was great and it's not the fault of the waiters...dinner for 3 with one person drinking water, a house wine and a beer and it was over $200.00."

"Our waters never went empty! Somebody was always on the lookout, ready to refill that was really nice to have, especially at a restaurant in the desert. The food was immaculate the waiter was incredibly friendly. I normally don’t write reviews but this place was just too great to not brag about!! I loved every second I was there"

"The singer was amazing was the hilite of our evening. I came with 3 friends that have never been to Mastros- we ordered the shucked raw oysters to start I have never been to any restaurant that didn’t cut the oyster from the shell!!! We had to cut it with our knives pick the shells out of our mouths… horrible! It was like eating egg shells. I asked the server if this is normal (as it’s very strange) she said no- that’s not normal she’ll mention it to the chef… nothing was ever done or mentioned again to us. When we got the bill, we waited over 40minutes for anyone to come back to us… we finally waived down another server she started to process our bill. Our server finally came back apologized saying she got stuck downstairs (whatever that means). We ended up being there for almost 4hrs!!!! I’ve been to Mastros several times never had such bad service… sadly my friends won’t likely come back."

"Our server made our experience terrible. We felt awkward and we felt unsafe in the end despite trying to enjoy our food. (Long story short: our service was terrible, so we didn’t tip our server after dinner. Our server ran after us and intimidated us in the parking lot to leave him a tip. We sat outside and our utensils and table were very dusty. He made a passive aggressive remark when we asked for new utensils. Throughout dinner, we felt extremely rushed by him, for some reason, and his behaviour towards us was rude and condescending. We’re not sure why we were being treated this way, so we assume he was prejudiced in some way. We really did not appreciate his behaviour so we did not tip as we felt he ruined our experience, especially after we already spent lots of money on food. I understand that tipping is the norm, but the uncomfortable thing is that our server ran after us to our car and intimidated us in the parking lot saying we forgot to tip. He looked extremely agitated and was raising his voice at us, and if was dark out in the parking lot. We felt unsafe, so we tipped him to get him to leave us alone. I’ve never experienced anything like this before and I would never go back here. I understand it is rude to not leave a tip but it doesn’t warrant being chased and intimidated at a parking lot at night!"
