Maderas Steak Ribs - Los Alamitos

Always delicious food (fantastic steaks! , great and fast service. Been here several times, never disappointed. The only remark (and 4 out of 5 stars for atmosphere is the quality of “live music” it’s hit or miss, but usually a miss unfortunately. If you come outside of the live music hours though, it’s THE place to be in Los Alamitos!

I was at Madera's Steak Ribs yesterday afternoon. When I walked in, I found the restaurant a bit dark and had to adjust my eyesight. First, we were served water by a gentleman without greeting us. Then came our server. She greeted us with a smile but did not introduce herself. I told her that I had a voucher and she asked if we had been there before and if we knew how the voucher worked, l said no, it's our first time. She proceeded to tell us that the voucher included one appetizer, choice of meat with two sides, one drink each and one dessert for two. We ordered a beer that's paired with a slice of orange. The beer was served without the orange slices. I asked a server that was walking by for orange slices, and she said ok. After 10 minutes, I walked to the bar area and asked for the orange slices myself. The food was good, but the highlight of the dinner was the Chocolate Explosion dessert. The restaurant was packed, and this may attribute to my negative comments. I may be back and hope to have a better review.

Great steaks and generous portions. Had peppercorn steak and prime rib. For dessert bananas foster to share. Definitely worth the visit.

I loved this place, there was live music when I went, the waitresses were super nice, the food was good they cooked my burger perfectly a good medium rare, AMAZING fries. Would totally go here again, the meals are around 20-25 on the lower end, and go up to around 40-90 for steaks. Kid-friendliness: Some friends brought their 6 year old and below kids, and they had food that they could eat.

My family came up to visit and have dinner with me today so I picked Maderas since we wanted steak. Greeted friendly enough when we came in, promptly seated, and then completely ignored afterwards. We were given waters as soon as we sat down but watched 2 different servers walk past us several times without asking if we wanted anything else to drink or even a simple hello we will be right with you. The icing was when another couple was sat next to us and instantly had a server taking their drink order. This being the third server we had seen ignore us in the 20 minutes we were there, we assumed that our business wasn’t wanted and went somewhere else. This happened today 6/23 from 5:41 to 6:00 pm.
