Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Better for 3rd+ dates - the spectacle and prices can overshadow getting to know someone. The theatrical atmosphere makes intimate conversation challenging.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Nearly impossible for dinner, especially weekends. Try the bar area or come for late lunch (2-4pm) for best walk-in chances.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes for special occasions - kids love the salt-sprinkling show, but prepare for a $200+ bill for a family of four. Better for teens who appreciate the Instagram factor.
Best For
Better for: Unmatched dinner theater experience - no other steakhouse offers this level of tableside performance and social media moments
Skip if: You want a quiet, intimate meal or value-focused dining. Choose Mastro's for classic luxury or STK for modern ambiance without the show
