- TTerraSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined on Jun 10, 2025This was my first time dining here, and I was thoroughly impressed - especially thanks to Tania, who made the evening truly special. I was celebrating my partner’s presentation at a conference and Tania picked up on the occasion right away, bringing a warm and thoughtful energy to the entire experience. The tuna tartare was a standout; fresh, balanced, and beautifully presented. Tania recommended an N/A wine that complemented my experience perfectly, and her attention to detail throughout the meal was flawless. Exceptional service, great food, and a genuine sense of hospitality from both management (shout out to Tati, Matthew, and Mike!) and staff. We’ll definitely be back!More infoMastro's Steakhouse - San FranciscoPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Downtown / Union Square•4.6
