Mastro’s Ocean Club - Newport Beach
This place was awesome! It was a high class, expensive white people restaurant. I dont think i have felt more out of place being an Asian at restaurants until now. And i have been to a lot of good restaurants.. Its almost borderline racist. But the food here is just delicious. The steak here was very good, well cooked, tender and melts in your mouth. The sea bass that Calvin had just breaks apart with ease. It was really good! Our waiter was very knowledgeable and was a good host. For dessert, they had their Signature Warm Butter Cake. It was really good. Texture was smooth, not too sweet and makes you want more. The wine that we had was good. I always enjoy the hard smooth stuff more…so the Cab was delicious…and ultra expensive. The beach is across PCH, so i would imagine the view to be beautiful during the day time.
The most crazy part of the restaurant. In the mens bathroom, there is a guy wearing a tux. His ONLY job is to turn the faucet on for you to wash your hands, squeeze soap into your hands, hand you a towel to wipe your hands and then turn off the water. Then theres a variety of gum, cologne, and even cigarettes for you to choose from and take…
I usually wouldnt go to the same restaurants again. But I would..i would take a few people that is special in my life.
