Permanently Closed - The Stanton Social

New Year’s Eve dinner

Family in from out of town.

We will miss stanton very much. We have been going for birthdays and special events for 12 years.

DELICIOUS! So sad it is closing! My favorite restaurant in NYC!!

We LOVED eating here. So sad it is closing. DEFINITELY our favorite NYC restaurant!!!!!!

First I’ll say the hostess was very nice and welcoming but the way we were treated by the waiters and waitresses at Stanton Social was unacceptable. We are 3 professional African American women who were excited about visiting the restaurant but the experience left me feeling hurt and disappointed. We were mistreated, overlooked and minimized. Because of this experience I do not want to support Vandal, Beauty of Essex or any of the Tao restaurants. If you don’t see any value in the support of black women than I will not spend my time or money. I will not suggest the Tao chain to friends or colleagues. I’m sorry that women, especially black women, are still undervalued as customers.

Food was great...tables were very tight...

Fabulous food - small plates to share are awesome ... grear service

Came here with an old friend I haven’t seen in a while

This place never disappoints. Every time I come to NYC I always go here. Not only is the food delicious, but the staff is a delight and it is a beautiful dinning experience.

The food was great. Dumblings were 10/10. Drinks are really nice too, just a bit overpriced compared to food.

Love Stanton Social. By far one of our favorite places. Food is always excellent. Service also perfect. Just be prepared, reservations are necessary, and seating always runs late. This last time, we waited nearly 45 minutes after our reservation time to actually get seated.

Great flavorful food!! Great service and attention to details. Still one of my favorite places to dine after so many years coming here. The onion soup dumplings are a must have!! Great overall experience!

Food was so delicious but pricy, but it’s worth it. The chicken and waffles were amazing, and the ravioli was great too. I like how it’s all appetizers to share instead of courses. Very full so make reservations beforehand.

Love Stanton Social and so sad they are closing. Food was superb. Waiter...didn’t want to be there which put a damper on our experience, but we love the food!

Too bad they add closing down this place. Hopefully they reopen soon

We had a phenomenal dinner at this beautiful restaurant last evening. The salmon ceviche and oysters were fresh, tasty and delicious and the beef Wellington was so incredible I wanted to lick the sauce right off the plate!

Food was amazing!! Came for brunch for my wifes birthday with her friends and we left with very happy stomachs. Also had the Rise N' Grind drink which was like an iced coffee cocktail and it was delicious!

Great food!

Consistently delicious and fun, I'm going to miss this original location when it closes at the end of this month. Get in while you can!

Stanton Social was a great experience from start to finish. Our waiter gave excellent cocktail and food recommendations. We were never rushed; in fact, we were encouraged to take our time tasting our way through the wonderful menu. Fantastic evening.

We had dinner here after our civil wedding. The entire staff made the visit extra special. Highly recommended!

The cocktail menu was good but not extensive. The setting festive and food excellent. The service was prompt and courteous

Unbelievable!!!

Quality has declined dramatically since the announcement of the closure. Probably for the best that this restaurant will no longer be around in the new year.

We had a wonderful time! Our server recommended wonderful dishes. The atmosphere was really good for the first date. A total success!

My party and I loved everything about the restaurant however major points are lost due to the over 30 minutes wait we had to endure even with a reservation. That needs to be better. Asides from that the food was great and the service overall was good.

We waited 30+ minutes for our table even though we had a reservation. The hostess was very unfriendly. We had dinner planned for a birthday event and were not able to eat until 11:30.

Food is pretty good, but portions are tiny (even though they are meant to be shared). For the price of the items, I expected to be wowed by everything I ordered...but was not.

Would be nice if they offered bottomless brunch.
Overall, the place is beautiful and cozy. Service was good and it seems great for having a small group brunch/dinner.

Amazing experience! Great service and delicious food!

Amazing food, great service and a very cozy feel. Definitely will be going back.

Brought my mom and we only had one dinner together. Food was mediocre. Beed Wellington was soggy and raw. Sent it back and their second attempt was better but still mediocre. Good service but wouldn’t come back!

LOUD, LOUDER EXCESSIVELY LOUD.

Birthday dinner for a friend. Host and server were so sweet with the birthday wishes as well as bringing out a cupcake and candle.

Food was amazing - well presented and delicious, just lovely. We went on a Sunday so was pretty quiet but the service was terrible. Waitress was so spaced out, verging on rude - got items wrong (missed items off the order, couldn’t understand a wine order) and generally no eye on customer service at all with a challenging attitude. Such a shame as without her it would have been a fantastic evening.

Great as always!!

Service was terrible. We were there for 11 year wedding anniversary and the server maybe spoke to us twice. Food was mediocre at best. Overall poor choice to go to!

Perfect yet again!

Never disappoints. Unique small dishes. Great service.

Wonderful food with exciting flavors. We reserved fairly late at night Sunday thinking we needed the time to get there and it would be too crowded earlier. Turned out to be a slow night so we were the last party there, but the staff members were all gracious and accommodating by not limiting the menu or the time we could spend there. They went out of their way to still create a fine dining experience. Professional staff and delicious eats. Worth visiting.
