Masselow's Steakhouse

Dan was great The butter was heaven Portion size was tiny except for salad Automatic 20% gratuity was/is rude For a table of 2 The Bloody Mary was so hot I couldn’t drink it ordered no Tabasco so the horseradish was horrible. The huckleberry lemon drop was perfect Our water was filled often The bread was great Portion size really stole the show NY was small 4 bites of potatoes desert was tiny. It would seem a $90 steak would cover 1/2 the plate

1st and foremost; servers were extremely polite and professional. Very genuine and kind! We did the 4 course meal they had available at the time. I don't recall the exact name of every dish. Appetizer - shrimp. The leftover broth made a great dip for bread. Bread cart was really neat - a few local breads and an in-house baked one. Nice touch. Salad was good! I know it had cougar gold and that itself makes the salad worth while. Steak - perfectly cooked! Carrots were just as good as the rest of the dish. Dessert - not huge on sweets but it's a guilty pleasure. Overall, food was ok. Portions are fairly small, prices are a bit steep but in all fairness; we knew that going in. It was a nice experience and as mentioned before; the staff was extremely friendly.

UPDATE: 05/20/21 Came with my wife so that so could enjoy the new experience here at Masselow's. We had a couple of drinks at the bar before being seated. The bartenders were friendly & helpful. They have plenty of unique cocktails. My favorite technique is the smoked old fashioned. We both ordered the 4 course tasting menu. They offer a suggested wine with each course, but we did not want to drink 4 glasses of wine an dthen drive home. So they split the "pairing" for each of us so we could taste each suggested wine with each course. The cost was an additional $30 per person but well worth it. Most wines complimented the food nicely. I wasn't the biggest fan of the moscato for the desert wine. The wine was good, I am just not a fan of sweet wines. They served us an amuse-Bouche that was a small polenta cake. Seemed a bit strange at first but the flavor suddenly grows and continues in your mouth for some time. It was a quite a surprise and very enjoyable. We ordered the More Than Ahi Tuna Poke & the Caviar "Egg Sandwich". Both were very tasty. I especially liked the sandwich, just wish it was a bit larger. We each had the Tableside Caeser & of course, the bready course. more comments below from my original review. I ordered the 40-Day Dry-Aged Eye of Ribeye & she ordered the Grilled Prime Filet Mignon. Both were fantastic. If being critical, the fillet was a bit rarer than medium rare and the Ribeye more medium than Medium rare. Bit minor issues as the flavor for both was great. For desert, I was the Raspberry-Rhubarb Tart & she ordered the Chocolate Blackout Cake. Both fantastic. I loved the brightness and flavor of the tart especially. Again, the service was impeccable. Super friendly and very attentive staff. The meal is not cheap, but this is True fine dining that you rarely to never see in Spokane. Special Occasion worthy every time. 03/2021 Was a great experience. They are currently only using 2 price fix menus for dinner. A 3 course menu ($70) or the 4 course menu, which I selected ($90). They served us a pasta noodle amuse-bouche as a tasting that was nice and interesting. I chose the "More than Ahi Tuna Poke" starter, which was flavorful and looked fantastic. Just felt it was missing some thin crackers to go with it for texture & flavor. Then came the table side Caeser salad. Unfortunately, the don't actually make the caeser dressing in front of you. It is already made and they just assemble the salad in front of you. They give you many add-on options such as anchovies, bacon, shrimp, cheese, croutons, etc.. The salad was good, but not the best that I have ever had. Something very cool and unique was the bread cart. I have never seen a bread cart served table side at a restaurant. The breads, crackers and house made butters were great. I chose the Grilled Prime Filet Mignon for my entree. It was very good but rather small. The main critique was that they sliced the filet instead of leaving it whole. I had never seen that done at a high end steak house. The meat was cooked perfectly. The mashed potatoes & grilled butternut squash was nice but small. Lastly I chose the Chocolate Sundae Flambe. They lit it on fire at the table for a good presentation. The brownie & ice cream were a good finish to the meal. Service was fantastic! The staff was very friendly and helpful. They made sure everything was perfect. I really enjoyed the meal and would definately come back. While there were a few odd things about the dishes, all in total the meal was a great value.

Very expensive and way over priced for food that tasted very average. We had breakfast for two and our bill was over $90 with a tip. For that price we did not get ice in our slightly warm complimentary water. Did not get free refills for our drinks. It's a place that charges sky high prices for fancy presentation, but forgot to add flavor to the food. The place was nice and everyone was friendly, but really not our cup of tea.

Dinner for 2 with 1 alcoholic drink each cost about $300 with tip. The only reason why I'm giving this restaurant 4 star is because of the service. The staff was extremely friendly and very attentive. The food was mediocre, nothing really stood out that would make us go and have dinner here again. Again, I would like to emphasize how amazing the staff were!
