Best Steakhouses in Mid-City

This was founded by the original owners of Mastro’s and, before tonight, most of my wine buddies had been here and told me how much they loved it. “Best Steakhouse in LA” they told me! I was somewhat skeptical. Tonight, I experienced it for myself and it was truly wonderful! We had a very attentive and thoughtful server, Jess, whom I will absolutely request on my next visit there. She knows the menu inside and out, is not timid about making suggestions, and was not at all flustered by our “Sally-like” requests (from the movie with “everything on the side”!). We had one minor issue (the kitchen’s not Jess’) and after Jess fixed it for us to our complete satisfaction, the Manager came over to make sure. He was incredibly friendly; took ownership; comped dessert; and, frankly, reinforced the incredibly positive vibes I had gotten interacting with our servers and the hostesses on our arrival. All-in-all this is a fantastic restaurant with top-quality food, presented beautifully, and served lovingly. 5-Stars all the way!

Meat On Ocean was perfect for our birthday celebration. We selected the grass fed Ribeyes for our main courses. The steaks were done to perfection. Don't miss the amazing butcher bread. Dessert was included for our birthdays. Get a booth against the back wall for privacy and people watching.

There was a beautiful table, generous cocktails, and a delicious dinner. But the topper is that I did not finish my dinner; it was beautifully packaged and placed in a black take-out bag for me. I forgot the bag when leaving the restaurant. I was walking down San Vicente, and I heard someone calling my name. It's Quentin, our waiter, bringing me my leftovers. Amazing, above-and-beyond-service. Baltaire is in my top five restaurants in LA. Quentin, thank you again.

Excellent food and service. Will definitely be coming back again.

The service was outstanding, personable and charismatic staff. The meal was delicious and came in good time. My table ordered seafood, steak, and pasta all were prepared to perfection. Definitely will be returning
