Mastro’s Steakhouse

1650 W. Loop S. (Across from The Post Oak Hotel) Houston 77027 713.993.2500 mastrosrestaurants.com

A shining star in Houston’s Pantheon of steak restaurants, Mastro’s is a very large and active restaurant, with multiple bars, private dining rooms, and lots of action. Mastro’s is popular with out of town hotel guests and locals as well, and it is a Mecca for corporate entertaining and for ‘that special occasion’ for couples. There is an active singles scene at the bars…something for everyone at Mastro’s, and especially good food at this local link in the national Mastro’s chain, which is owned by Landry’s, owners of the adjacent hotel.
