Most of the food was great. The morels mushrooms was extremely salty, my raspberry purée for the dessert was strangely salty as well. Beside that, everything else was amazing. The highlight was the confit foie gras, the cabbage, and the crab with truffles and egg yolk. The service was good, food came out at a good pace. Love that it was casual dining for a Mechlin star restaurant. It was very welcoming and comfortable. I will bring my husband here for a date night the next time we're in town.

Got the tasting menu for my partner's birthday: very fine dining with interesting (and not over priced) wine pairing. Great experience.

A great meal overall, but some common-sense details were overlooked. We were a party of three and selected the tasting menu. We also had one order of the fois gras to share. The server brought two pieces of toast - i would think given the amount we were spending for the entire meal, an extra piece of toast would not be too much to ask for. Second lapse of attention came when they brought the petit four - two chocolates or a bed of cotton candy. Didn't they know we were a party of three? I guess they did not even bother and really wanted us to leave!

This is my second time at Lord Stanley and it is still wildly disappointing. The first time was shortly after it opened and even though it wasn't impressive, it seemed to have potential. I decided to revisit the restaurant since it gets good reviews and maybe they had worked out the quirks. I was wrong - the second experience was worse than the first. The service was poor, the menu wasn't interesting, and though what we ordered was good, 'good' doesn't cut it in SF - especially at that price point.

Food and service were excellent. There is obvious great care and pride of ownership in both areas. Wagyu beef tartar was a revelation and even the simplest dishes (peas) were exquisite. Service was attentive and well-informed as to the dishes and the eclectic wine list. The only drawback, which I feel I have to mention, is the volume in the room. It was borderline painful, hence my "very good" overall rating.

Thi was our first visit - my background is F&B- This place ROCKED IT OUT! You should really try it . Ours was a date night and we were pampered by a great server team. The Food was a smooth train of high quality craftsmanship. Worth the triple $ spend.
