I enjoyed my entire recklessness here, from the environment to the food. I appreciated the lack of ambient music so I could have a conversation without yelling. Very nice Italian style decorations, clean restroom. The server was attentive and kind.

About the restaurant

Pacific Standard Prime is a modern steakhouse with a California vibe serving seasonal and sustainable food.

We're passionate about bringing you high-quality ingredients, many sourced from natural, organic, and sustainable ranches and farms.
