Food was delicious. The Tex-queño with cilantro sauce was delicious and left us wanting more. Mussels were very fresh, chorizo carbonara was an interesting twist and very tasty. We had a couple of Old Fashioned drinks that were very good too. We will definitely come back!

I've only gotten to try their food at the Dining in The Dark Experience, but the food and environment is great. Savory or sweet dishes, atmospheric decorations, and a decent drink menu. I will have to come back to try their signature dishes, but this seems like a great place for a date or to meet up.

Now I go out to many different restaurants and I must say this was one of the worst experiences I have ever had at a restaurant. Mainly because the customer service was so awful from one particular host / waitress. I didn’t enjoy the raw sushi. I didn’t enjoy her telling me no nothing could be done about it either. Plus she called me a cheater over the rule of leaving your blindfold on the entire time which I didn’t not enjoy eating as a blind person. I can only imagine how difficult this is for people actually blind. Major respect for blind people after this experience it’s not easy at all. Back to the restaurant all three meal were cooked excellent but felt like I was eating microwave dinners.It’s a great idea if you find that interesting eating blindfolded but me personally I didn’t enjoy it. The drinks were okay mostly forgot about the bad experience but it was just not as great as other restaurants.

My wife and I had dinner at Mastrantos on the evening before Valentine's Day. We shared a green salad, and she had the Scarpinocc Pasta, and I had the Blackened Salmon. The food was exquisite, plated beautifully, and the service was perfect. We will be back soon to try other dishes.
My boyfriend and I came for the Valentine’s day 3 course set menu. We thought the food was delicious and the drinks were good. The service was slow but overall we will be returning to try the regular menu.

The food was so disappointing! We got the mussels (covered in Smokey sauce, couldn’t even taste the mussels UNTIL my husband got a rotten one), bolognese pasta for our 5 year old (she wouldn’t even eat it, watery sauce and overcooked), salmon (it was decent and at least cooked well) and beef tips (super dry, tasted like wood). We went home afterwards and my husband vomited

One of the best date night spots in the heights neighborhood. Globally inspired food which brings a different vibe than most other restaurants offer. The service was great, cocktails amazing, and the braised beef bourguignon was the best braised beef I’ve ever had. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a new date night spot.
We had eaten here twice before over the last 3 years or so (we don’t live in Houston), but had not tried any of their house-made pastas. Oh, my! So good. My husband had the gnocchi with vegetables. I had goat cheese tortellini with lamb ragu. This was 5 days ago (our 37th wedding anniversary) and I’m still thinking about that meal. Our appetizers and smokey margarita and tiramisu were all delightful. We really need to drive into the city more often, if only to eat at Mastrantos.

I am in town visiting family and we went to this place for dinner. It's not too big so has a nice intimate feel to it. The food was amazing. At least what I had was. I ordered a shared brussels sprouts dish, which had a mix of raw, fried, and grilled spouts and this amazing aioli. I ordered a side of salmon which was cooked perfectly. I wish I had taken pictures of it but forgot. lol. Such a great place. I'll definitely be back.
