Felt like I got scammed. Ordered truffle Alfredo, and didn't ask for extra truffle, guy came by and put some on my plate and later on looked at the bill..it was an extra $36. Just be careful when you order that dish. Food was kind of bland, most likely won't be coming back.

Prior coming in, I notified via booking that it was my anniversary. So when I came in, a cute letter congratulating us on our anniversary was a super cute. Michael our waiter was very friendly and patient. His calm energy made the atmosphere comfortable. Buffet food was delicious. I wish there were more options though. Will be back again!

This was our second time to MASON'S. Everything was perfect! Better than the 1st time. It was my son's birthday and our server Brittany was very sweet. She was professional and on point. I decided on the bolognese at Brittany's recommendation. Delicious! My husband decided on the osso bucco, which he said was so very tender and the potatos underneath were scrumptious. My son and his wife decided on the filet mignon with sides baby potatos and Mac n cheese. We also got 2 appetizers, one being the Brussels sprouts and the other waygu beef ravioli. Dessert (of course) the tiramisu baked Alaska..(good lord!) Brittany also brought out a small dessert for my son. We sat upstairs in the small room which was wonderful as we could actually have a conversation, most places are so noisy!!! In all MASON'S made it a great night, a fabulous dinner, and we owe it to Brittany and all the staff that accompanied her in serving. Thanks so much MASON'S. We will return!

The ambience is FANTASTIC, the food is exceptional, especially the crab rice, steaks and sides, but the SERVICE we received from the owner who came over to wish my son a Happy Birthday was the best part of our evening! We've already made another reservation for the next important occasion for our family!
Elise
Service, drinks, and appetizer were great. Unfortunately our cut of filet and ribeye was not great, so steaks could have been better. A little disappointed
Susan
Food was good though not $500 good for 2 couples. 2 apps and 4 alcoholic beverages and 1 dessert. 4 steaks. I had a filet and I have to say it was good but not great for the price. It was busy but service was not what you would expect for this pricy restaurant. Place was full so I'm sure others wouldn't agree with me. Try it for yourselves.

Welcoming,Classy ,Upscale Restaurant! We asked to sit at Bar and Bartenders were wonderful. Drinks were made Fresh and so Good and crushed ice really made the drink. Food was excellent and definitely would come here for a special occasion.

Always a great time at Masons. Upscale, Boston feel restaurant with exceptional service and very special/unique offerings.

We came here to celebrate our 8-year anniversary, and I made sure to note that when I made the reservation. We visited on a Tuesday (yesterday), and the restaurant was quite busy, which is usually a good sign. One downside was how close the tables were to each other—it felt like you could easily hear nearby conversations, and vice versa. The food took about 30–45 minutes to come out, but considering how busy it was, that was understandable. For our main dishes, we ordered a NY strip and a sirloin, with mashed potatoes and mac and cheese as sides. Unfortunately, the mashed potatoes were a bit too salty, and the mac and cheese was definitely overrated. We weren't fans at all and ended up sending it back; our waiter was very understanding and removed it from our check. The steaks, however, were very solid—I'd rate both around an 8.5/10. For dessert, we ordered the maple blossom, which was delicious and easily the highlight of the meal. Overall, the food was good, but I wish the restaurant showed a little more care or acknowledgment since we were celebrating a special occasion.

We went for my husband's birthday so we went all out with ordering. But for probably the most expensive dinner I've ever had it wasn't to die for. The bar service was a little slow while we waited for our table. The manager had to check on us because we still hadn't ordered drinks. The drinks were delicious I will say. We loved our apps and the bread table service. We put in our order all at once apps and dinner which we always get nervous that dinner will come out too quick but this time it came out pretty slow and we had to wait for awhile. My lamb chops were delicious but we can't say my husbands dry aged was the best we've ever had. We got a complimentary dessert for my husband's birthday and it was a pistachio pound cake and it was quite dry we didn't eat it. The bathrooms were also FREEZING like uncomfortably cold. I even heard the table next to us talking about that. It's always nice to try a new place but I think there's just some things to work on.
Had heard so much about the place not sure what I was expecting? Service was excellent but everything else just Fair, There were 4 of us and we have been to all similar steakhouses we all gave it a 7. My family not afraid to spend money but felt we were being gauged when the charged 5$ for the sauce that went with the filets.

It was an all around great experience. Lovely location, nice staff, great food. Would come back. My husband enjoyed his birthday celebration so that meant the world to me.

We had made plans for this dinner about a month ago during the Sunday brunch we enjoyed so much. The host/manager was so awesome. As soon as we walked in he remembered us and the details of the dinner. We had 3 apps: the bone marrow was loaded (not small) and delicious. The octopus was out of this world! I wish they had a huge entree version. The steak carpaccio was melt in your mouth delicious. I had a wonderful dry aged steak cooked perfectly. I never had such a good crab fried rice. I have to say this place has the most wonderful staff. Thanks for a fantastic experience
Karen
The food for the prime rib brunch was great, as was the service. My only complaint was that I like au jus to be much simpler and the one served was not. Other than that, I felt that for the price point, it was a great value. Need to try your dinner next.

This place is a gem. Service, food, ambiance is top notch. My wife and I came here for our anniversary - and they had a nice card and dessert for us. Little details is what makes this place special.
