I followed the other reviewers and ordered the Burro Negro. It is always a joy to find a thick-cut steak in Mexico. It was cooked medium-rare, as ordered. The Greek salad was also tasty. The cabarnet was "Opera", which complemented nicely the juicy steak. A bit surprised not to get nachos and salsa as a free appetizer, but it wouldn't... More

Husband and I both tried the house favorite, black burro. A rather large hunk of beef (I think) with a side of fresh veggies and a side of pasta. We both enjoy a steak on the rare side but this burro was still cold and kicking. We had to send them back. Maybe we are spoiled when it comes to... More

Prior to our visit, I had read Il Mosto's menu online and was really excited about the offerings and was set on going. So we headed down to Plaza Machado and we (or at least I) was not impressed! Before we even ordered we were talking about the Crepes Suzette (which became huge on our list of must haves having... More

We went to Il Mosto for the Black Burro steak and it was excellent. I had the vegetables and pasta for my sides and both were very good. My husband had the pasta and the sliced potato's and he really enjoyed them. The service was friendly and quick and the prices were good. We choose to sit outside and watch... More

I read the reviews and had to try this place. Ate there last night, the reviews were right on. Excellent service, excellent everything. 5 of us all had the black burro steak and all were great. If you go to mazatlan this is a must place to try.

Excellent food, excellent service. Choose to eat indoors or outside on the Plaza. We have eaten here many times. I would recommend the beef medallions or the "Black Burro".

3rd time we've eaten dinner here. Each time we are delighted by the quality of the service and the fantastic tastes and aromas of the meals we've had. The Black Burro steak is superb! Tender, delicious and with a flavor that sets my mouth watering just thinking about it. We've eaten at Topalos and liked Il Mosto better!

This is the first time here! I'll be back for another Black Burro. This must be the all time best steak in Mazatlan. You will have to try it for sure. Some of the best service also. We ate inside because of the strond breeze that night. This was Wed nite berore Carnival. Our cabbie waited for us, it was... More
