    First time dining here but not our last. The filet tips were incredible! They allowed us to substitute the veggie from green beans to asparagus, too! My dad had the fish n chips and said it was phenomenal. Dinner was so good we had to get dessert ... so yummy! Quality ingredients and incredible flavor. The ambiance was classy and the service was wonderful. It is a bit pricey but we all thought it was worth it. We'll be back!

    It was a birthday dinner for my boyfriend and I think the server’s name was Tiffeny? She made the experience great. Food is well worth it. Very quiet, as the majority of diners were in the older age range so it was just a very peaceful dinner. Thoroughly impressed with my experience there. 9/10 would go again.

    Awesome place. It has always been my fav spot in Northgate. Brought my gf here twice now and this place didn’t disappoint. Nicole H was our server the first time we were here, requested for her again last night when we had our one month celeb dinner. The food and drink choices are amazing. Their fall season butternut squash is my gf’s fav. Will def continue coming back here. 10/10 would recommend.

    haviang travel from Vancouver BC to Seattle over the past 30 years, never been to Stanford, this weekend we stay in the Northgate area and was looking for a. place for a nice meal, by chance we decided to go to Stanford, sat in the bar area, quiet evening the server was prompt, ackowledge us within two minutes , friendly gave us time to review menu, drinks were served promptly, cahtted for a few minutes about the menu specials, I had the pork chops, my husband had the fish and chips, , I am a hot sauce person, asked for some hot sauce, but the first bite of the pork chop was to die for , well seasoned, perfectly cooked , perfectely spiced , green beans were nice and crunchy, the lemom rice was awesome, both meals were excellent , well presented , for sure our next Seattle trip, Stanford will be our go to restaurant

    This is my first time at this restaurant. Wonderful experience! Yes, you can get a tomahawk steak for over $100 but there are so many other things on the menu that are amazing and are more reasonable. Looks like a fancy place but went in there for a late lunch. I opted to have the pork chop with rice and asparagus instead of the potatoes and green beans. So tasty! If the pork chop was this amazing, I imagine the steaks are of this world. Service was extraordinary. Thank you, Tiffinay!

    Good food, great desserts. We weren’t in the mood for steak last night but their steaks have been outstanding and an extremely good value by fancy downtown steakhouse standards when we have gone in the past. We were celebrating our aunt’s 92 birthday last night and the happiness on her face as the server brought out her complementary slice of chocolate mousse cake with a candle on it was wonderful to see! She also enjoyed her burger and beer. Chocolate mousse cake was house made and delicious.
