Restaurants near Hilton Irvine/Orange County Airport

This was our first time dining in this establishment. I've always heard great things about Mastro's and was excited to try their steaks. Made reservation ahead of time. Our server, Sean, was fairly new, but he was friendly and described the dishes extremely well. We ordered half dozen oysters to start, followed by a chopped salad to share. For our Entrees, I went with their Porterhouse, medium rate, and wife ordered a Pan Seared Sea Bass. She thought the fish was somewhat dry, so we talked to our server, and he was happy to assist us to swap the dish to something else. We decided to get their Seared Scallops; which was more expensive, but tasted phenomenal. My steak was very well seasoned and cooked to the right temp. We also ordered their Lobster Mashed Potatoes which was a good portion to share. It was full of flavor and tasted very buttery. Overall, experience was very good, we also ordered a couple of drinks to go along with our meal. To finish our dinner, we also ordered their Espresso Mouse Cake. It was very sweet, but was a good compliment with coffee.

Wonderful staff, good food! Great ambience. Totally enjoyed the experience.

I've been going here for years because it's always reliable with great food. It was very busy last night because the theater had 2 shows. When it is that crowded, it is very noisy. Bottom line, reliable and great, especially if you're going to the theater.

It was our first time dining here and it was such an amazing experience! We had a cozy table outside on the patio and the food was excellent. The staff was warm and welcoming and we experienced a high level of hospitality from the moment we walked into the restaurant and were greeted by the hosts! The bartender, Eric, and our server, Matthew, really made the night special for us and the birthday we were celebrating!

Food and service was excellent this time around! We were given the “holiday menus” for a mid-week lunch which had dinner prices, but were lucky to overhear another diner ordering off the regular lunch menu - turns out you have to ASK for the lunch menu to order from it. A must since it’s almost double the price!
